Hanlon's Razor: When Tex is told that O'Malley is "inside Blue leader", she accuses Church of hosting the A.I. and mentions several of his more questionable decisions as evidence that he is sabotaging Blue Team's efforts. Church replies that making those choices doesn't make him evil, just a bad leader. |

comment |
Humans by Any Other Name: Apparently "Shisno", the word for humans in one alien language, literally translates to "the feces of the feces of the foulest smelling creature in the universe". Or something worse. It's also used, understandably, as an insult. The character translating it peters out when Church tells him that a skunk's feces doesn't crap. He probably had farther to go. |

Multiple Endings |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_1aa08f77 |
comment |
Multiple Endings: In addition to the canonical ending, there are six alternate endings to Episode 100, "Why Were We Here?" (two were on concurrent downloads along with the official one, the others in the home video). All of them are Black Comedy-laden Downer Endings of some shade excluding "Insert Quarter" (which is more of a Gainax Ending than anything else) and (depending on which character is your favorite) "Where Are They Now?". "Fight! Fight!": A poorly timed comment from Sarge prompts a free-for-all that ends with everyone dead. "Insert Quarter": Sarge tries to call for support from Command, and when Vic proves uncooperative, Sarge destroys the computers controlling Blood Gulch, which then proclaim him the winner of "Red Vs Blue", the Japanese credits for which then roll. The episode then cuts to a Halo 2 postgame screen with the kill/death stats of the eight major characters throughout the series (Caboose's kills are at -1 because a teamkill subtracts from your score, Tex's kill count is at Halo 2's maximum of 99, etc.), revealing the whole thing as "the weirdest [death]match [they]'ve ever played". After some Xbox Live-style banter (which really makes it unclear whether it's the characters talking or just the creators using their handles in a game), they decide to play another match with "same teams" but a "new map". "Invasion": Starts the same way as "Fight! Fight!" but before Sarge can finish mocking the Blues, he is blasted by a Banshee. Everyone is killed by the invading Sangheili, who then proceed to take over both of the bases and act out the events of Episode 1. "Ruby Slippers": It's revealed that the entire series was a dream being had by Church back during Season 1, having only been knocked unconscious by Sheila's cannon fire. He describes his dream to a genuinely concerned Tucker, a remarkably lucid and sane-sounding Caboose, and Jenkins, who he apparently forgot about, before Simmons and Grif show up. Church tries to speak to them about the events of his dream, but they just hose the Blues down with machine gun fire, killing them all. The Reds (complete with Sarge's original, nasally voice) then prepare to move on to the next zone. "Tex Wins": When Church screams for Tex to come back, the ship turns around (with Andy presumably having been deactivated). The ship then fires a missile at the Blood Gulch soldiers, killing them all. "Where Are They Now?": The death scenes from "Fight! Fight!" play in sequence, but as each character is killed, a short caption comes up, revealing a strange future for each. |

The Slow Path: In Season 3, Church becomes trapped in the past and must wait until he catches up to the present...which takes about a thousand years. Fortunately, he has a robot body, which still somehow grows a beard. However, it could've been from Gary's deceit, since the whole time loop for Church with the bomb really didn't happen. |

Papa Wolf: A good indicator of Tucker's future Character Development and him later Taking A Level In Kindness is how quickly he starts to dote on and care for Junior (well, at least in his own way). Most notably, he kills a Freelancer once he learns that they plan to kidnap his son and have him possessed by an insane A.I.. |

Only Sane Man: Church, who is usually the only person to both understand when a crisis is happening and be motivated enough to do something about it. Most of the other characters are either one but not the other, or neither. Tex might qualify in some episodes, but she also has a habit of going Axe-Crazy and often pursues her own agenda to the detriment of others. |

Later, he was hired by Rooster Teeth to do the comic strip on the site, after merely suggesting the notion. And Rooster Teeth themselves to a much greater degree, given the series is ultimately a well-done Halo AU fanfic. |

In the first episode, Simmons asks Grif, "you ever wonder why we're here?" He replies with a lengthy speech about cosmic coincidence and the meaning of the universe. Simmons laughingly tells him that he meant why they were here, as in Blood Gulch, and Grif seems embarrassed. In the Season 1 finale, Simmons asks him it again, and Grif cuts him off with, "No. I never, ever, wonder why we're here. Semper Fi, bitch." This comes up again in the Season 5 finale, where the final scene is an homage to the first episode, with the roles reversed. |

While the canonical ending is probably the "least" dark, it's still quite bleak - Despite all his efforts and suffering throughout the entire series, Church fails to accomplish anything, including his ultimate goal of saving Tex, and everything goes back to the way it was at the very beginning (more or less), with no improvement at all. On the plus side, the Blood Gulch Crew managed to stop Omega and potentially saved the entire Milky Way, not that anyone outside the canyon will ever know or care. |

Lampshade Hanging: Church does this after one of the (usually 5-10 minutes long) episodes ends on a cliffhanger: The series became increasingly self-referential and fourth-wall breaking as The Blood Gulch Chronicles reached its end. |

Fusion Dance: The Freelancers and their AIs. O'Malley's name is even a portmanteau of his designation (Omega) and Tex's real name (Allison) to form Om-Alli. This is also unintentionally played straight with Gary—Wyoming's name is Reggie, and his AI is Gamma, but Gary was originally just named after Burnie Burns' late cat. |

I Am Not Shazam: A bit of an inversion In-Universe: When Tex explains that every member of Project Freelancer was codenamed for a state, Tucker responds by asking the soldier nicknamed Tex what her codename was. She responds, "Nevada." Plenty of fans believed her, though in their defense the series seemed goofy enough for that to happen, and she delivers the line completely straight. |

Silly Reason for War |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_366dfa01 |
comment |
On a less comedic note, the series also mocks countless video game tropes. The fact that the series' "war" is one massive "Capture the Flag" game is repeatedly pointed out to make no sense (with the Reds even realizing in Season 2 that it would be more trouble than it's worth to take Blue Team's flag, and so they ask for it to "stay exactly where it is!"). Additionally, only one of the main characters (and he's a villain) - Agent Wyoming - is able to respawn upon death, which everyone else views as terrifying. |

Blatant Lies: Tucker lies to hide the fact that they let Tex help after Church explicitly told them not to. Tucker tells Caboose that going through the teleported doesn’t hurt, then admits to Church that it actually hurts a lot. Lampshaded by Caboose. |

Bittersweet Ending: Tex betrays the others and tries to help Wyoming and Omega escape with the alien. Instead she, and about a third of the speaking parts in the show, are seemingly killed in a massive explosion. Omega's plot is thwarted (saving the Milky Way), but Church is left embittered and everything that's happened seems to have been for nothing. On the plus side, Grif finally gets shotgun! |

comment |
Voodoo Shark: The explanation for the Yellow Church in episode 52 given in episode 100 breaks internal consistency in a bunch of different ways. It's implied in Season 10 that Church looping through time never actually happened, and in fact was actually a simulation presented by Gamma. That still doesn't explain how he managed to escape Caboose's head, and get a body, but that's probably just the Rule of Funny in action and nothing more. |

Sound-Effect Bleep: Most swearing isn't censored, but in one instance, "Son of a..." is cut off by an Earth-Shattering Kaboom. Most of the swearing is intact on the episodes shown on Halo Waypoint; however a joke in Episode 20 which probably could be considered particularly offensive was bleeped out. |

Obviously Not Fine: In "You Can't Park Here", Doc has Caboose feed Tucker's baby alien a lot of his blood, which causes Caboose to collapse from loss of blood. Come "Sibling Arrivalries", Church tries to get reinforcements to fight the Reds, with Doc telling him Caboose is now fine as the latter runs outside Blue Base, only for him to collapse yet again. |

Characterization Marches On |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_479f9ad0 |
comment |
Characterization Marches On: A lot of the characters haven't really clicked yet and haven't really experienced the Flanderization that allowed them to settle into their familiar persons as and character dynamics. Donut is a strait-laced and semi-competent, but naive and mildly dim rookie who takes his job and the Red-Blue war entirely seriously, not grasping the pointlessness of the conflict between the Reds and Blues, which completely contrasts with his later portrayal as a jovial, flamboyant ditz who tends to treat the Blues like close friends. He also doesn't get his iconic pink armor until the end of the season. Lopez starts off as a silent enforcer to Sarge, and develops into The Comically Serious who regards the Reds with the highest respect and views their mission as being of the highest importance, contrasting heavily with the bitingly sarcastic Only Sane Man bitterly aware of the Reds' idiocy he became. Caboose is just a mildly dim Deadpan Snarker who is almost fully aware of everything happening around him, as opposed to the Cloudcuckoolander Manchild he's most famous for being. Sarge is more of a straightforward Drill Sergeant Nasty whose only real quirk is his hatred of Grif, as opposed to the absolute lunatic he would become. |

Informed Attractiveness: Tex and Sister. Being that all the characters use the same Master Chief player model (which is male of course) the only way the audience knows that they're attractive is through comments from the male characters (specifically Tucker). Though there was an episode where Sister took her armor off for a physical and the surveillance cameras in Blue Base caught it all much to the delight of Simmons and Sarge (though we the audience don't get to see). Also, Tucker and his "striking metrosexual good looks," as noted by Captain Flowers. |

Downer Ending: Sort of... see Multiple Endings. While the canonical ending is probably the "least" dark, it's still quite bleak - Despite all his efforts and suffering throughout the entire series, Church fails to accomplish anything, including his ultimate goal of saving Tex, and everything goes back to the way it was at the very beginning (more or less), with no improvement at all. On the plus side, the Blood Gulch Crew managed to stop Omega and potentially saved the entire Milky Way, not that anyone outside the canyon will ever know or care. |

Early-Installment Weirdness |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_4f4372e9 |
comment |
Early Installment Weirdness: The season, the first few episodes especially, has significantly poorer audio quality than later seasons. The first episode directly references Halo, with Grif complaining about being stuck in the canyon after Master Chief brought down the Covenant on his own. The connection to the source material was quietly downplayed once the series started developing its own mythos (though the series' source material would be later re-visited come Reconstruction). When Vic appears in Episode 10, he's a more stoic character, voiced by Randall Glass of Warthog Jump. Vic's return in Season 2 had him as the quirky and unhelpful Mission Control voiced by Burnie Burns. Sarge is a recurring character who's Put on a Bus for most of the season. |

Bookends: The series began and ended with two characters observing two other characters discuss their place in the world. Which turns out to be Not Actually the Ultimate Question, as they're actually talking about something mundane (Simmons is wondering why they're stationed in Blood Gulch, and Caboose is wondering why they're standing outside in the sun) Simmons also gets the first and last word of the series. |

| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_56e50131 |
comment |
Relatedly, The Blood Gulch Chronicles also plays with both (platonic) Love Across Battlelines and Mission Control. Instead of having a clear and concise yet distant commander that efficiently helps them take on their enemy, the Reds and Blues both answer to Vic, who is Playing Both Sides and gives them all terrible advice so as to draw out their pointless conflict as long as possible. And as the series goes on, the Reds and Blues actually start to form a decent camaraderie with each othernote (to the point where Sarge and Church seem to be the only ones actually interested in winning over the other Team, as the other Reds and Blues treat their "war" more like a particularly aggressive sports match than anything else)... but their "friendship"/mutual respect only reaches to the same level as how well the individual teams work together. |

Subverted as of Season 8. Apparently he wasn't half-dead, but in Recovery Mode on his armour, making this Mistaken for Afterlife. |

The Smurfette Principle: Tex is the only girl in the show for quite some time, though in a case of Positive Discrimination, she's definitely the best fighter on either team. Sister then shows up in Season 5, leading to Two Girls to a Team for the Blues until Tex seems to "die" in "Why Were We Here?", leaving Sister the only woman left in the entire canyon. |

Spanner in the Works: Tucker and Sarge in the finale. To elaborate, Tucker's acquisition of the energy sword gave him the ability to remember events from alternate timelines created by Wyoming's temporal device and kill him. Sarge then leaves a bomb in the Pelican simply to kill the Blues, and in the process stops Omega's plan to conquer the universe. |

Took a Level in Dumbass: Caboose started out in the series much more normal; but the creators decided to just make him dumber and dumber over time. As a result, he's one of the most beloved characters in the series. There is an in-universe explanation that he became this way due to having O'Malley screw with his mind and witnessing Sheila blow up, but he was still somewhat stupid anyway. |

comment |
The Remake: For the tenth anniversary Blu-Ray box set, the entirety of The Blood Gulch Chronicles were re-done in the PC ports of Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2. Along with the cleaner visuals, the most noticeable changes are full screen (the originals had to add black bars to crop the HUD and player's gun) and the lack of a targeting reticle, given the Xbox originals lacked the "Theater Mode". The remasters eventually found their way to Netflix, the official Red vs. Blue YouTube channel, and Rooster Teeth's website during their 2018 revamp (the originals are still found in the RT Youtube channel). |

Deconstructive Parody |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_6dcbe9aa |
comment |
Deconstructive Parody: Just about every first person shooter and science fiction video game trope is picked apart, generally for comedic purposes. Most notably, the series constantly parodies the Excuse Plot, with the series' Arc Words literally being "You ever wonder why we're here?". The first episode has Simmons pointing out to Grif that the Forever War between the Red and Blue Teams is completely pointless, since if one side were to win (or the other side were to pull out), the "victor" would just have two bases in the middle of a box canyon. The series also points out that the entire conflict being a Hopeless War means that only the mindlessly loyal or very foolish would continue the fight. Therefore, everyone in the canyon (with the possible exceptions of Church and Tex, and even they still have their moments of insanity/stupidity) is some variant of idiotic or insane. Relatedly, The Blood Gulch Chronicles also plays with both (platonic) Love Across Battlelines and Mission Control. Instead of having a clear and concise yet distant commander that efficiently helps them take on their enemy, the Reds and Blues both answer to Vic, who is Playing Both Sides and gives them all terrible advice so as to draw out their pointless conflict as long as possible. And as the series goes on, the Reds and Blues actually start to form a decent camaraderie with each othernote (to the point where Sarge and Church seem to be the only ones actually interested in winning over the other Team, as the other Reds and Blues treat their "war" more like a particularly aggressive sports match than anything else)... but their "friendship"/mutual respect only reaches to the same level as how well the individual teams work together. On a less comedic note, the series also mocks countless video game tropes. The fact that the series' "war" is one massive "Capture the Flag" game is repeatedly pointed out to make no sense (with the Reds even realizing in Season 2 that it would be more trouble than it's worth to take Blue Team's flag, and so they ask for it to "stay exactly where it is!"). Additionally, only one of the main characters (and he's a villain) - Agent Wyoming - is able to respawn upon death, which everyone else views as terrifying. |

Lopez starts off as a silent enforcer to Sarge, and develops into The Comically Serious who regards the Reds with the highest respect and views their mission as being of the highest importance, contrasting heavily with the bitingly sarcastic Only Sane Man bitterly aware of the Reds' idiocy he became. |

Tex performs a Face–Heel Turn and reunites with O'Malley to help stop the Great War with Junior, but she, Sheila (who was downloaded aboard Sister's Pelican that she was using), and Junior are all blown up by Andy, killing off a large portion of the series' cast and making it so that Church's desperate struggle to save his girlfriend throughout the whole series was utterly pointless. |

Conservation of Ninjutsu |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_82f5ced1 |
comment |
Conservation of Ninjutsu: invoked One Wyoming: major threat. An army of Wyomings time-duplicates: Cannon Fodder for the Reds, even giving Simmons of all people a Moment of Awesome. Granted, the "Groundhog Day" Loop explains how Tucker could handle them, but not the Reds. Or Church, who can be seen sniping a few while the Reds are observing from Blue Base. Notably, when there is only one Wyoming left, the negative effects of the trope apparently haven't worn off, as he is easily interrogated and executed. That said, the battle is coordinated between the Reds and Blues, and Wyoming is more of a Professional Killer than a straight up combatant. Possibly justified as it's basically stated that the main reason Wyoming is so boss is because he spams time rewinds. Obviously in the last battle he had already made at least a dozen or two attempts, and one can assume that's normal for him. It can also be assumed that the reason they went down so easily in the final battle is that they didn't get the chance to rewind that time. |

Didn't Think This Through: According to Agent Wyoming, Project Freelancer's plan to end the Great War is a ridiculously convoluted case of Xanatos Speed Chess ultimately culminating in them infecting Junior with Omega and giving him Tucker's sword, with him then fulfilling a supposed ancient prophecy within the Covenant and having them stop their war with the UNSC. However, even ignoring how absurdly complex this plan is and how easily it would fall apart when put into practice, Church points out that even if the plan actually works, all it would result in is giving the Anthropomorphic Personification of Unstoppable Rage a Proud Warrior Race to ravage the Milky Way with at their leisure. |

Sir Swears-a-Lot: Due to e-mail requests and concerns about younger audiences, episodes of the second season had fewer expletives in general, and bleeps over those that made it in. This caused an even larger backlash from people demanding the swearing be put back in. Rooster Teeth, as explained in the second season DVD commentary, responded by introducing Mental-Church, Caboose's mental image of Church, who was deliberately incredibly vulgar, and swore more than any other character. Third season episodes were offered in censored and uncensored versions before the idea of censorship was abandoned. |

Rule of Symbolism: Being that the series is a Machinima, there's Endless Daytime whenever the story's events are taking place in Blood Gulch (much to the confusion of multiple characters). The only time we see it get darker in Blood Gulch as if the sun's about to set? When The Blood Gulch Chronicles is about to end on a Sudden Downer Ending. |

Set Right What Once Went Wrong: Church in Episodes 50-52, failing every time to do anything but create the situations or fail to make any impact at all. With the revelation that the time travel there was a torture scenario in later seasons, however, this is something of an aversion in practice. You Already Changed the Past: Part of why it fails. |

Flip Personality: When O'Malley possesses Doc, their body frequently switches personality on a sentence by sentence basis; this is shown by voice and mannerism changes and camera angle changes. The two characters actually hold conversations with each other, or will cut in on what the other is saying to make some kind of wise-crack or amendment. For the most part O'Malley is in control of what they do, however. |

Gambit Roulette |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_987be393 |
comment |
Gambit Roulette: By the end of the series, it appears that everything O'Malley, Wyoming, Gamma/Gary and Vic did was for the purpose of acquiring an Alien child and the sword that would elevate him to the status of leader of his race, so that O'Malley could possess the Alien and use his race as a weapon to win the war. The degree of planning and precision this would require, and using Wyoming and Gamma's time-bending powers to supposedly send them into the past/future in order to further manipulate them, is implausibly ridiculous, thus keeping with the tone of the series. Later seasons would however imply that Freelancer Command was serving as their Greater-Scope Villain, giving more credence to the plan's potential success. |

Greater-Scope Villain: Project Freelancer Command, the people who order the Freelancers around from behind the scenes and for whom Omega/O'Malley, Wyoming, and Gamma/Gary are manipulating the main cast for so as to end the Human-Covenant War. Furthermore, almost the entire story arc is an elaborate training simulation for Freelancers like Wyoming to run through to help gain battle experience. |

The Only One Allowed to Defeat You |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_9b73b497 |
comment |
The Only One Allowed to Defeat You: When Wyoming's clone-army is about to kill the Blues, Grif gleefully points out that the Reds don't have to do a thing to win except watch. Sarge, of course, is not nearly so happy to let someone else defeat his enemy, and so leads the Reds in the Warthog to save the Blues. |

comment |
Tucker never gets the sniper rifle. The first time he did, he accidentally shoots Tex in the ass. Then he Took a Level in Badass with it. After this, Tucker's obsession with using the sniper rifle died down significantly. The fact that he found his own badass weapon (the Laser Blade) also had something to do with it. |

Foreshadowing |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_9d12bbc1 |
comment |
Foreshadowing: The fact that Church wasn't affected by O'Malley possessing him is strange until you realize in hindsight that it just was a case of an A.I. fragment returning to its origin. Also, Grif's sister being alive even though the teams got "sent to the future." They never time-traveled at all, it was just a scenario concocted by Project Freelancer. Tucker explaining that Junior going "bow chicka bow wow" is genetic. While seemingly being a Shared Family Quirks joke, it ultimately hints at the plan to have Junior fulfill the alien prophecy and become the aliens' overlord, as his genes inherited from Tucker allows him to be the only other person in existence to be able to use the sword. |

Made of Iron: Anyone can survive a devastating attack generally unharmed provided it would be funny for them to do so. Any pain or injury will be played for laughs and forgotten as soon as the joke is over. Conversely, this invincibility can be revoked at any point, if the character's death is important for plot reasons. Grif may be the patron saint of this, given his state as the physical Butt-Monkey and Sarge's constant attempts to put him in harms way. At one point he takes a shotgun round point blank to the chest, and shortly after takes a Five Rounds Rapid to the face, twice. He is perfectly fine throughout the rest of the episode. |

Hired Guns: Freelancer Agents - as seen with Tex and Wyoming - largely function as this for the Red and Blue armies.

Later seasons would heavily imply that he's actually still working for Freelancer Command during the events of The Blood Gulch Chronicles, though, as Tex was actually the Rogue Agent all along. |

"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_b77808f2 |
comment |
"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: The aptly-named "Where Are They Now?" ending to "Why Were We Here" reveals a strange potential future for each of the Reds and Blues. Sarge: After his tour in Blood Gulch, he was awarded the Badge of Redness, but had it revoked when he would not reveal his real name for the certificate. He commanded various Red Forces throughout the following years and was eventually killed on the battlefields of Gemini 8. On the plus side, he died exactly the way he wanted - after Grif. Simmons: He stole Sarge's identity after his death and attempted to resume his life. He was then discovered and court-martialed by the Red Army, and is now currently awaiting execution in a military prison. Grif: He was killed by Sarge shortly before the latter's death. Church: He became an Anger Management social worker in Quincy, IL. Tucker: He went AWOL shortly after the events of The Blood Gulch Chronicles. He was last spotted on a stolen ship heading towards Sangheilios, and his current whereabouts are unknown. Sister: She got a job working as an etiquette coach at the prestigious "Paris Hilton School for Girls". Donut: He married an exotic dancer named Tiffany, and they have twelve children. Caboose: Finally, he sold his life story to a software company based in Redmond, WA, and they based a popular video game off of it. |

And Show It to You: A variant in Episode 10, where a man is killed with his own skull being used to beat him to death. Except the way Tex is said to have done this (tearing out the skull of the victim) doesn't seem physically possible... How Is That Even Possible?: ...which was Tucker (and the victim, Jimmy)'s reaction. |

Ironic Echo Cut: Both played straight and played for laughs many times. For instance, when Grif and Simmons grumble that the "Morris Code" tapping sound from the crashed Pelican in Season 5 is more annoying than anything the Blues have to put up with, there's a Gilligan Cut to Church swearing at the top of his lungs as he's struggling to deal with Vic's voicemail box from Hell. |

Color-Coded Characters: Mostly due to Halo's game engine, each character is visually identified with a color. This changes somewhat once the series upgrades to Halo 3, as the bonus armors and increased customization options allow for more variety. |

Hard Truth Aesop: After a hundred episodes, Church takes a moment to reflect on how he's learned that it's wrong to hate people based on arbitrary political or military delineations. Instead you should strive to "despise people on a personal level." While not necessarily a great moral, it still rings true to an extent in that one should not mindlessly hate just because they were told to. |

"Insert Quarter": Sarge tries to call for support from Command, and when Vic proves uncooperative, Sarge destroys the computers controlling Blood Gulch, which then proclaim him the winner of "Red Vs Blue", the Japanese credits for which then roll. The episode then cuts to a Halo 2 postgame screen with the kill/death stats of the eight major characters throughout the series (Caboose's kills are at -1 because a teamkill subtracts from your score, Tex's kill count is at Halo 2's maximum of 99, etc.), revealing the whole thing as "the weirdest [death]match [they]'ve ever played". After some Xbox Live-style banter (which really makes it unclear whether it's the characters talking or just the creators using their handles in a game), they decide to play another match with "same teams" but a "new map". |

Deus Exit Machina: Circumstances continually keep Sheila and the Warthog from being fully operational or otherwise able to affect the conflict. Both vehicles get totaled early in Season 1; Sheila is fixed and re-totaled; the next season has a huge amount of time dedicated to the vehicles being repaired, only for Sheila to begin exhibiting more independent action. Sheila is then unable to accompany the teams on their teleports out of Blood Gulch, and has to have her personality moved out of the tank in Season 5. The Warthog stops getting this treatment after Season 2, once the conflicts scale up to the point where it can't tip the balance. |

Incoming Ham: Sarge: "Ladies, front and center on the double!" Vic: "Yes, dude, hello, can you read me? Hello? Check one, check two. Yo, I hear you. Calm down, dude, what's going on? Hello, yo, can you hear me, hello? " O'Malley gets a few, such as his Wham Line that closes season 1 ("My name is O'Malley"), his Evil Laugh when shown in Caboose's head, and the first time he manifests possessing Doc: " If I ever meet him, I'm taking his eyes as souvenirs!" Wyoming: "Hello, mate!" in the thickest British accent possible. |

Cassandra Truth: Sheila, a tank, rolls behind Sarge, being watched by Donut, Simmons, and Grif, but he refuses to believe it is there, and the other Reds except Simmons also decide not to say they know. This extends to the point where Sheila is firing at the base after Simmons had his temporary Hazy Feel Turn. |

Introductory Opening Credits: The first five seasons, at least on their film-like presentation on DVD and Netflix, have an extended introduction to start each series off, complete with name-presenting freezecams and camera sweeps. Both Seasons 1 and 5 on both YouTube and Rooster Teeth.com also feature them, though they're not seen with Seasons 2-4. |

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": invoked Sister, whose real name is Kaikaina. Kaikaina is the Hawaiian word for "Little Sister", or, more accurately, the Hawaiian word for "younger sibling of the same sex". Also Sarge, though in later seasons we find out that actually is his real name. Also, Medical Officer Frank DuFresne, who is immediately nicknamed "Doc" by Church because he can't be bothered remembering his name. |

Wins by Doing Absolutely Nothing |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_d9f97805 |
comment |
Wins by Doing Absolutely Nothing: Episode 100 has a rare instance of winning by doing nothing out of pure abject laziness. During the events of the episode the rogue, homicidal AI Omega jumps from person to person due to its ability to Body Surf through radios, but can be forced out of someone either by the AI's choice or by knocking out the host. For the Red Team hosts, they get punched in the head; first Simmons (repeatedly), then Donut, then Sarge. When O'Malley finally infects Grif, he is the only Red to not get beat up by Tex when he notes that he suddenly has an urge to conquer the universe, but that it's out of character for him because that would take work. His response is to not do anything at all...whereupon he promptly falls asleep standing up. Omega either can't wake Grif up or is so disgusted by his laziness that he abandons Grif altogether to jump to another host. |

Whole Plot Reference: Episode 98 ("Same Old, Same Old") is a loose one to Marathon Infinity. To further clarify, both stories center around a character looping space-time to save the universe (in their eyes, at least) from hostile aliens. The difference of course is that the time-looping character in Red vs Blue (Wyoming) is the antagonist rather than the protagonist, as they were in Infinity. |

Attending Your Own Funeral\Last Disrespects: In Episode 83, Grif arranges for Sarge's funeral and delivers more of a roast while Simmons tries to take over as Red leader. Sarge himself bemoans how he was cut down in the prime of his life, before being asked to get in the casket. Church arranges for both his and Tex's funeral. Caboose delivers the eulogy. Church is less than impressed, and Tucker leaves due to it being "lame". |

Flanderization |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_e5e6640b |
comment |
Flanderization: Almost everyone, though Tropes Are Not Bad as this led to Caboose and Donut becoming even more popular, and funny moments becoming much more common. It also works in the sense that the characters originally started out as broad archetypes, and their Flanderization made them into more unique & interesting characters. Caboose goes from being just a bit slow at the start of the series to having borderline insanity, unable to follow a simple train of thought. Also, in a weird way, anyone possessed by Omega has in-universe Flanderization. Justified, however, as there is a notable shift in his intelligence after Church, Tex, and O'Malley had an explosive firefight in Caboose's mind. However, later episodes would Retcon Caboose so that he was always this insane. Tucker goes from being flirtatious to a sex maniac. Sarge's mild bullying of Grif goes to outright attempts at murdering him. Grif's initial laziness and apathy gets cranked up to a phobia of work. Donut goes from being somewhat effeminate to being ambiguously Camp Gay. Again, justified. He started as just a normal, if effeminate man. When he got lightish-red armor, he definitely went down the slippery slope. Simmons goes from a teacher's pet to a groveling sycophant. Doc begins a neutral pacifist without extensive medical training (but nevertheless treats Caboose during an active shootout), and ends a man panicked by any sign of conflict, completely incompetent in his supposed area of expertise. |

comment |
"Ruby Slippers": It's revealed that the entire series was a dream being had by Church back during Season 1, having only been knocked unconscious by Sheila's cannon fire. He describes his dream to a genuinely concerned Tucker, a remarkably lucid and sane-sounding Caboose, and Jenkins, who he apparently forgot about, before Simmons and Grif show up. Church tries to speak to them about the events of his dream, but they just hose the Blues down with machine gun fire, killing them all. The Reds (complete with Sarge's original, nasally voice) then prepare to move on to the next zone. |

Donut is a strait-laced and semi-competent, but naive and mildly dim rookie who takes his job and the Red-Blue war entirely seriously, not grasping the pointlessness of the conflict between the Reds and Blues, which completely contrasts with his later portrayal as a jovial, flamboyant ditz who tends to treat the Blues like close friends. He also doesn't get his iconic pink armor until the end of the season. |

Dude, Not Ironic: In Episode 38, the majority of the cast has an (off-screen) two-hour discussion about whether or not the situation they found themselves in was ironic. The opening lines to the discussion produce several examples of things which which aren't ironic, including this gem from Caboose: |

Running Gag |
| Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles (Machinima) / int_f9f2c33 |
comment |
Running Gag: Among others: Tucker never gets the sniper rifle. The first time he did, he accidentally shoots Tex in the ass. Then he Took a Level in Badass with it. After this, Tucker's obsession with using the sniper rifle died down significantly. The fact that he found his own badass weapon (the Laser Blade) also had something to do with it. Church's horrible aim, especially with the Sniper Rifle. He usually only hits people by accident, or when the Rule of Funny makes it possible. People who die say "HURK!...blehh." People react to hearing explosions by yelling "SON OF A BITCH!" In the "Fight! Fight!" ending, everyone says "SON OF A BITCH!" upon death. People being possessed say "HEEGAKURGURK". Tucker gets covered in "black stuff" whenever he goes through a teleporter. "Shotgun!" (shouted by either Grif or Simmons every time a new vehicle shows up). Followed by "Fuck!" from whomever didn't win. |

Brick Joke: In the first episode, Simmons asks Grif, "you ever wonder why we're here?" He replies with a lengthy speech about cosmic coincidence and the meaning of the universe. Simmons laughingly tells him that he meant why they were here, as in Blood Gulch, and Grif seems embarrassed. In the Season 1 finale, Simmons asks him it again, and Grif cuts him off with, "No. I never, ever, wonder why we're here. Semper Fi, bitch." This comes up again in the Season 5 finale, where the final scene is an homage to the first episode, with the roles reversed. In the first episode, Simmons brings forth the point that if they were to stop fighting and let the blues win, the only consequence would be that the Blues would have two bases in the middle of a box canyon in the middle of nowhere - "whoop-dee-fucking-do". In Episode 95, the Blues finally take Red Base while the Reds are in the caves. Church, unfulfilled with their success, adds "I guess now we have two bases in the middle of a box canyon", to which Tucker replies, "whoop-dee-fucking-do". Late into Season 1, Grif revives Sarge (who was shot in the head) via CPR. Sarge complains that his treatment was inconsistent with the wound, asking, "What would you do if they stabbed me in the toe? Rub my neck with aloe vera?" In Season 2, when Church shoots Caboose to get Doc to take care of him, he shoots him in the toe. Doc, a believer in "alternative medical treatments", just rubs his neck with aloe vera. In Season 3, Church, through a Stable Time Loop, ends up with an amount of copies of himself left on Sidewinder. One of them is coloured yellow, and when asked about it, he promises to tell the others the story ("Oh man, it seemed like such a good idea at the time..."). In the Season 5 finale, it's revealed that Yellow Church is Caboose's mental image of Sister, apparently Church's twin brother from the moon, who is caught in Church's explosion and ejected from Caboose's mind and got sent back in time by a dead Wyoming's temporal distortion unit. |
