It’s basically Fridge Brilliance, but you wouldn’t want to reveal it. It has a little bit of Fridge Horror, too.

Mary Sue take a shit.

A trope about works with Mary Sues about how they sometimes focus on a Mary Sue's every action and treats it all as important.

When a character fully expected to die going into something, and might even have come to terms with it - but turns out they did so well they actually make it out of there alive, whether by avoiding what would have killed them, being spared, or even being revived right after dying (even if this technically wouldn't count as "not dying")

So Good, It's Bad

When a work is very technically competent, polished, and refined and has no reason to be considered bad on objective terms but it lacks passion, heart, charm, and just generally that something extra and it turns people off from getting invested or interested in it. Subtrope of Technician vs. Performer, compare So Bad, It Was Better, contrast So Bad, It's Good.

A piece of media plays fast and loose with the attributes of fictional species, with the Trope Namer being the fucked up canon of DW's Time Lords.

A trope that “white people“ (those of American and British origins) cannot survive an apocalypse, and that only those of Native American, African, and Spanish heritage can survive.

When actors improvise an entire scene despite there actually being a script. Can sometimes make it end up better than what was in the script
