Once there she quickly learns that its not an easy place for a girl with no plans.Carole is a young woman barely making her way in the city, and has just lost her job, again. With nothing left to do she begins playing her keyboard and singing on a bridge, where a disheartened Tuesday happens to also be and the two girls instantly connect over Carole's song. | |

No Celebrities Were Harmed | |
| Carole & Tuesday / int_1282bf4f | comment |
No Celebrities Were Harmed: One of the auditioning singers in Episode 7 bears a resemblance to, and sings a lot like Vitas. Similarly, GGK is a shameless (if loving) interpretation of FKA Twigs, and fans have taken to calling Crystal "Space Beyoncé" for good reason. Valerie Simmons is basically Hillary Clinton… with the political platform of Donald Trump. Several of the other musical artists have similarities to famous musicians in looks, music style, and even backstories. For instance, Desmond’s glam rock-inspired singing and look resembles David Bowie, and Flora’s music and downward spiral in her life is eerily similar to Whitney Houston. During the Mars Grammies show in Episode 22, the presenter calls out to a man named Steve. The camera then cuts to a man who looks like Steve Aoki. | |

Protest Song | |
| Carole & Tuesday / int_16d8476f | comment |
Protest Song: "Mother", written expressly In-Universe to protest the ongoing censorship of music as well as the xenophobic immigration policies being pursued by Tuesday's mother as a presidential candidate. Since Spencer succeeds in revealing the truth to Valerie about her campaign manager engineering the bombing of Alba City's weather control machine to aid her divisive rhetoric, and she both fires her manager and drops out of the campaign, the song instead morphs into a heartfelt plea for humanity to come together. The concert is still considered illegal, however resulting in an appearance by the police to break it up; it's not revealed how this turns out, but Gus's ending monologue at least suggests things get better from here on out, so it remains a literal protest. Some of the imagery, and the coming together of countless musicians with varying styles to support a single cause, is also reminiscent of We Are the World, but no actual money is raised by the event. | |

Terraform | |
| Carole & Tuesday / int_19944e8f | comment |
Terraform: The planet Mars was terraformed into having a breathable athmosphere and a really cozy climate somewhere in the past (likely not too long ago, but far enough in the past so that an actual Martian sense of national identity emerged including the nasty side of it, namely nativist sentiment and enmity against (Earth) refugees) and is maintained by weather control (e.g. when a weather control facility was blown up in episode 18, the temperature in Alba City started to drop). | |

Ambiguously Brown: Carole seems to be of African descent while Angela could either be African as well or Latino, maybe both. This trope is quite prominent, as Alba City is very cosmopolitan and the colonization of Mars might have blurred a few "racial" lines. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: At the beginning of their career, Carole and Tuesday are invited to be concert stand-ins for the singer Joshua, who has had a streak of calling out of appearances at the last minute. They go on, the crowd is angry, and Gus waits for them all to change their minds once they hear the performance, but they don't. Standing in for a musician who for whatever last-minute reason is unavailable to play will not be received well by the audience, who paid to see them. Carole and Tuesday get ruthlessly booed off the stage by the angry audience members. | |

Stylistic Suck: The music video IDEA makes for "Hold Me Now" in Episode 4. Carole, Tuesday, Gus, and Roddy pitch about a dozen different concepts, without even knowing what song the video would be for; IDEA just mashes them all together without even trying to make something coherent out of them; and then it proceeds to execute every one of those concepts with laughable ineptitude. Unsurprisingly, IDEA turns out to be a scam artist, and the resulting video is scrapped - but not before we get to see it in all its hysterically-bad glory. | |

Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: Spencer manages to track Tuesday down in Episode 5, but after seeing how happy she is performing, he can't bring himself to tell their mother where she is. Downplayed at the Mars Brightest finale. After arriving late due to Valerie's interference, Carole and Tuesday are officially disqualified, leaving Angela as the victor, but are allowed to perform their song anyway. Their performance of "Loneliest Girl" moves the judges to tears, but they remain firm about the disqualification and declare Angela the victor. However, the judges refuse to let such a talented duo leave empty-handed, disqualification or not, and offer them a record deal on the spot. | |

Book Ends: The series begins with a small-town girl, living in a lonely world, taking the midnight train going anywhere. The penultimate episode is actually called "Don't Stop Believin'". The "Miraculous 7 Minutes" concert mentioned in the intro, and which occurs in the final episode, takes place in the same concert hall in which Carole and Tuesday perform their first impromptu concert in Episode 2. The pair even lampshade this. For bonus points, both concerts are less than legal, but while the first is broken up by security, the second is allowed to play to completion despite the police showing up. | |

Central Theme | |
| Carole & Tuesday / int_5ce7dbb9 | comment |
Central Theme: Parental relationships, though it centers more on the maternal side: Carole was left at an orphanage since she was a baby and later ended up at a refugee camp before ending up in Mars. She actually doesn't have a single shred of sadness for never knowing her parents. That is, until her father Dann shows up and tells her that she had to be left at the orphanage due to her mother's Death by Childbirth, which wasn't helped when Dann was arrested for a Crime In Self Defense that he was wrongly accused to and had to be in prison for 18 years. Though initially dismissive of her parental connection, Carole comes to appreciate the fact her father will come back one day. Tuesday very early on shows that her relationship with her mother is nothing short of abusive due to her mother looking down on her dream to become a musician, which led Tuesday to fleeing from home. Due to her mother being a politician in line to being a candidate for the presidency, she sees her runaway daughter as a liability to her image and tries to get her back forcibly. Though it takes some facts from Spencer about her campaign manager Jerry's actions to cause an explosive accident for her to realize that her desire to become a president isn't exactly what she wants and thus drops her bid while accepting responsibility for Jerry's actions. This also makes her accept Tuesday. Angela's mother Dahlia abuses her daughter for profitable gain against her daughter's wishes to have some sort of freedom with her musical career. At times, Dahlia comes through for Angela, but ultimately, she will do whatever it takes for her dreams (not Angela's) to come true. Then Angela snaps out later and learns harshly that she's not even Dahlia's blood daughter due to her mother's inability to conceive one. To make matter worse, Dahlia suffers a fatal stroke right after and later succumbs, leaving Angela completely heartbroken and confused. | |

At the start of Episode 4, when Roddy suggests having the IDEA AI create a music video for the duo, you can see on its store page that it only has a 1-star rating over 2000 reviews. None of the protagonists notice this, though Carole is suspicious of the cheap price. IDEA turns out to be a scam artist. | |

Shared Universe | |
| Carole & Tuesday / int_7fd142ef | comment |
Shared Universe: Carole and Tuesday possibly takes place in the same universe as Cowboy Bebop and Space☆Dandy as the currency is also woolongs. The former moreso, due to Carole and Tuesday's setting of a colonized Mars in the future, in Alba City no less. As Mars is a young colony rather than the economic center of the solar system and interstellar travel doesn't exist yet, it obviously takes place far earlier than either of the other two. | |

Dramatic Wind: Parodied in Episode 4. While shooting the duo's first music video, IDEA takes them to the top of a crater, hoping to get footage of them standing at the cliff edge, complete with dramatic wind. Instead, it's so windy that the pair can barely stand up straight, let alone play their instruments, and IDEA himself gets blown away. | |

Broken Pedestal: Downplayed in the case of Ertegun, as there wasn't much of a pedestal to break in the first place. When the girls visit him to request a collaboration, he immediately looks down on their music without even listening to it. In retaliation, the two set up a fiery prank before quickly making their escape. Subverted when Carole meets Flora, the singer who originally inspired her to become a musician. Flora is a jaded, burnt-out wreck who is implied to have been driven to alcohol and drug abuse by how the music industry treated her, and has lost her desire to sing. Carole still admires her anyway, and covers Flora's song "Give You The World" in concert in a successful attempt to lift her spirits. | |

You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Subverted, but Angela fears this when she learns Tao is developing an AI replica of her, especially when he hesitates before reassuring her otherwise. When the replica is completed, it turns out Tao merely intends for it to train Angela until she's at the same "perfect" level. This is still the final straw for Angela, however, and her rejection of the AI (and by proxy, Tao and Dahlia) is what kickstarts her downward spiral. | |

Foreshadowing: At the start of Episode 4, when Roddy suggests having the IDEA AI create a music video for the duo, you can see on its store page that it only has a 1-star rating over 2000 reviews. None of the protagonists notice this, though Carole is suspicious of the cheap price. IDEA turns out to be a scam artist. The story of Flora's breakdown and burnout is eerily similar to what happens to Angela just a few episodes later. The difference is that, while Angela has friends around her who help her recover in a matter of days, Flora had nobody and didn't even begin to recover until Carole and Tuesday came along. In Episode 19, one of Angela's security guards at the Cydonia Festival very obviously resembles Black_Knight. Since the protagonists don't know what Black_Knight looks like, they don't realise (and it's not revealed properly) until the episode's climax. | |

Carole was left at an orphanage since she was a baby and later ended up at a refugee camp before ending up in Mars. She actually doesn't have a single shred of sadness for never knowing her parents. That is, until her father Dann shows up and tells her that she had to be left at the orphanage due to her mother's Death by Childbirth, which wasn't helped when Dann was arrested for a Crime In Self Defense that he was wrongly accused to and had to be in prison for 18 years. Though initially dismissive of her parental connection, Carole comes to appreciate the fact her father will come back one day. | |

Artistic License – Space: While the size of Mars' moons Deimos and Phobos◊ is realistic enough, the Earth◊ on the other hand looks way bigger than it actually would in the Martian sky. People standing on Mars would see the Earth as a bright star much like Venus appears from Earth, not as a small moon. Depicting it this way helps to enhance the dreamy mood of the scene, however. | |

Pinball Protagonist | |
| Carole & Tuesday / int_eadc018f | comment |
Pinball Protagonist: Carole and Tuesday, and even Angela to an extent, are mostly dragged around from one gig to another without making much of their own decisions − outside of consenting and performing as best as they can. The only notable exceptions are Carole and Tuesday's impromptu performance in a concert hall in episode 2, which drew the attention of Gus and Roddy in the first place, and the "Miraculous 7 Minutes" concert in the finale, which was their idea. Deconstructed in the case of Angela. Being dragged about by Dahlia and Tao takes its toll on her, until finally she snaps and tells Dahlia she's had enough of being treated like a doll. Dahlia then suffers a fatal heart attack, and with Tao having been arrested and no-one left to pinball her around, Angela is left at a loss for what to do and enters an almost-fatal downward spiral until she forces herself to take the initiative for once and joins Carole and Tuesday's concert. | |

Technician Versus Performer | |
| Carole & Tuesday / int_ef3d1b57 | comment |
Technician Versus Performer: An underlining plot of the series, with Former Child Star Angela as the Technician who uses A.I. technology and current trends for music, and Carole and Tuesday as the Performers who really just want to make music together. | |

Last Episode, New Character: Though we get a few tiny glimpses of him towards the end of the series, Lonesome Clarence doesn't make a proper appearance until the finale. | |

Rock is Authentic, Pop is Shallow | |
| Carole & Tuesday / int_f1e0c442 | comment |
Rock is Authentic, Pop is Shallow: The show presents a variation. The musicians in the show all run the gamut of genres, but the one of the central themes is the conflict between music that is composed by artificial intelligence (all but omnipresent in the show's setting) and Carole and Tuesday's homegrown, authentic, self-composed, raw sound. Musicians are also torn between signing with high-powered producers (a faster route to fame and success, but at the loss of their creative freedom), and making it on their own or with lesser-known teams. | |

Product Placement | |
| Carole & Tuesday / int_f511ea9b | comment |
Product Placement: The show is sponsored by Gibson and Nord, so naturally Tuesday's acoustic guitar is a Gibson (a Hummingbird, to be precise), and Carole plays on a Nord keyboard. Instagram is also visibly used, rather than a Bland-Name Product version, and appears to be identical in look and function to the present day, in spite of the sci-fi setting. After Carole & Tuesday and Angela release their debut singles, Roddy tracks their chart positions on the real-world Billboard chart. | |

Running Gag | |
| Carole & Tuesday / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: An early running gag was Carole and Tuesday having to run away from locations after getting in trouble. Carole even lampshades it after they escape from Ertegun's mansion in Episode 3. Carole and Tuesday not knowing who various "legendary" industry figures are. It gets to the point where in Episode 15, after receiving an invite from the legendary reclusive musician Desmond, Roddy bets Gus twenty woolongs that the pair won't have heard of them. He's absolutely right. | |

I Call It "Vera": Tuesday's precious guitar is named "Hummingbird". That's because it is a Gibson Hummingbird. | |

Beware the Nice Ones | |
| Carole & Tuesday / int_fccd06b6 | comment |
Beware the Nice Ones: Tuesday may be the sweetest girl there is, but when Ertegun insults their music without even bothering to listen to it, she calmly burns the letter and sets off the sprinklers in his house. Even she is surprised by the way she reacted. | |

Shown Their Work: Aside from the upper tier, serious contestants actually being pretty good by real world standards, there’s also a scene during the talent show where DJ Ertegun is interacting with a tablet. Those familiar with DJ software interfaces would recognize that he’s organizing sound sample layers on a time table. | |
