The YouTube Show (SmashupMashups's Idea)/Tropes

In this web series, five of YouTube's known storytime animators all get paired up in a situation Slice of Life comedy in a suburban neighborhood setting. Their roles have TheOdd1sOut's James as a roommate with TimTom's Tim, while having them socializing with their neighbors JaidenAnimations' Jaiden, Let Me Explain Studios' Rebecca, and SomethingElseYT's Adam. That doesn't mean the other well-known and even lesser-known YouTube animators aren't in this series either; It'sAlexClark's Alex plays the annoying neighbor to James and Tim, GingerPale's a new neighbor that's acquainted with Jaiden, Domics is owner of his own restaurant chain, Shgurr serves as the show's Chew Toy, and Tabbes plays the eerie neighbor.

The show unfortunately only lasts three seasons and 35 episodes.
