Animated Actors	comment	An animated episode is in full swing. The action suddenly stops, the characters step out of character, and address an unseen figure. The view pulls back to reveal the action is taking place on an animated TV soundstage. Usually punctuated by a heated exchange between the animated director and the character. This is a specific type of fourth wall joke. Many times, the "actors" who play the characters are very different from the characters themselves. Often, the dumb, inarticulate comedy relief will turn out to be a posh Shakespearean ac-tor. A large, imposing character may take off his head, revealing himself to be a normal-looking guy wearing a costume. The Big Bad may turn out to be a total sweetheart when not in character. If not, the character's "actor" will be exactly the same or very similar to their on screen portrayal, if perhaps with a little more real-world common sense coming from not being a part of the action. Many times, the character's name will stay the same, but occasionally the crew will call them by the voice-actor's name. Also used as a method of Lampshade Hanging, as the character will often complain about some trite or hackneyed element of the scene, and refuse to proceed. There's also the popular gag of having them mess up their lines or goof off, though obviously these Animated Outtakes took just as much work to write, voice, draw and animate as the rest of the show. This can be a throw-away gag, or it can be the plot of an entire episode. If the animated characters are interacting with live action humans / people, it's the Roger Rabbit Effect. If taken to a whole dimension, where characters in a writer's portfolio are reused across whole works (sometimes with different roles) like how a "real" actor/actress would, it becomes a Reused Character Design. Not to be confused with Ink-Suit Actor, an animated character who looks like the voice actor. Nor to be confused with someone who acts in an animated manner.

Olive and Otto watch Oscar be filmed for his interview video, and later on, they film scenes from the PBS Kids version of the ending credits as well as an "Odd Squad Needs You" commercial alongside Oprah. In addition, there are also mentions of Olive providing voiceover for the "Odd Moments in History" segments, Oscar recording the Training Videos (and helping Oksana with Headquarters tour videos), and Oscar and O'Connor sending in the Odd Reports they had filmed previously, among a couple other things.

She ends up looking for work through the Acme Cartoon Employment Agency, then tries a stint as Batman's sidekick.◊ Another story arc has Gwen and Abigail subpoenaed by a commission investigating racism in comics. When they are accused of using the comic to perpetuate the "lazy maid" stereotype, Eve defends them by pointing out◊ that the strip also depicts white madams as insensitive boors who spend all their time watching soap operas and drinking gin.

The trope that they are actors in the comic's world is used several more times. The book The Indelible Alison Bechdel featured a long sequence in which the characters are portrayed as both actors and as the staff and managers of DTWOF Inc., with author Bechdel portrayed as a "staff writer" chained in the basement and humoured in her 'harmless delusion' that she creates the strip.

Muppet Robin Hood has Kermit play Robin Hood and his nephew Robin play a character named Squirt. Robin points out how confusing it would have been if he went by his regular name in the same story where his uncle is playing a character named Robin. Muppet Snow White is the most explicit about the Muppets merely playing the characters and not actually being them and even has Miss Piggy (portraying the Evil Queen) get Link Hogthrob to play Snow White's father just so she could divorce him and marry Kermit's role as the Prince.

The one shot "Friends Will be Friends" expands on this even more with the Sailor Guardians mentioning that they, the aforementioned cast of Candy Candy along with the characters from Sonic the Hedgehog, the Norns and the cast of Digimon can still get work because their designs are unique enough and have enough character depth that fans still pleasure themselves to them whereas the cast of Magic Knight Rayearth are barely remembered (Though that may have changed with the release of a certain game) and Usagi has no idea what happened to the cast The Vision of Escaflowne.

One segment involves Scott and Tenaya 7 practicing their moves and explicitly stating that they do this so neither of them get hurt. Scott might not want to hurt Tenaya cause he's The Hero, but in character, she would kill him. It becomes particularly amusing during the blooper reel when Olivia Tennet's ridiculously thick Kiwi accent comes through when she mutters "So close!" after flubbing some lines for her character Dr. K.

Animated Actors / int_e25322af	comment	Homestar Runner's characters have a high degree of Medium Awareness and sometimes seem to be actors. "The King of Town" and "In Search of the Yello Dello" have DVD Commentary tracks by the characters, implying that the events are fictional and that they were acting (albeit As Themselves). There are many Show Within a Show segments, including Teen Girl Squad, Dangeresque and Sweet Cuppin' Cakes. Some of the characters in these are clearly portrayed or voice-acted by members of the main cast of (animated) characters. In the Strong Bad Email "original," not only are the characters implied to be actors but Strong Bad claims they are frequently replaced. He reminisces about the "original Bubs," a clearly-different animated character playing the "role" of Bubs. However by the end of the toon, Bubs arrives and claims Strong Bad is lying and that he is the original, one-and-only Bubs. Missy Palmer, who voices Marzipan, has revealed that her Alternate Character Interpretation is that the characters are a Universal-Adaptor Cast playing various roles. Homestar is occasionally portrayed as a celebrity in-universe, and some shorts show him being used as endorsement for drinks, hosting a recurring game show, and even starring in a long-running email series like Strong Bad's.

Animated Actors / int_ea1a786f	comment	Brazilian comic book series Monica's Gang uses this with frequency, in which the characters regularly acknowledge they are part of a comic book and even interact with the artists, the writers, and even the readers. Depending on the Writer, they can be complete actors following a script, or, more commonly, characters that know their stories are famous comic books, but otherwise, continue to act just like as themselves. A source of humour in the series also is the main characters referring to their friends as secondary characters and complaining about tropes in their stories out loud. Bidu (Blue)'s stories, about the life of the dog of one of the characters, take this metalanguage up to eleven, with several of his stories centering around Blue and his friends being actors trying to make stories for the comic book and facing many production problems, with one of the characters even being solely a stage manager. Bugu, in specific, is an obnoxious fan always trying to participate in the story.

Furthermore, as Roger Wilmut points out in his book The Goon Show Companion, the characters often make remarks to each other in character which make it clear that they are already acquainted. In other words, the actors are playing characters who are themselves playing characters. In one episode, "The Phantom Head-Shaver of Brighton" was revealed to be...Wallace Greenslade, the narrator.
