A trope throughout a series by which a part of the opening or ending credits is interchangeably switched, and the content can be different every show. Some of the same shows also have couch gags at the end as a Credits Gag. Alternatively, this gag may occur at the end of The Teaser, just before the credits start. Named for one of its best-known incarnations, the family scrambling to gather on the couch during the opening sequence of The Simpsons. Note that it need not be a "gag"; TV dramas such as Mission: Impossible and Justice League Unlimited will sometimes have clips from later in the episode. Compare to Different in Every Episode. Not to be confused with the other type of couch and gag. Randomized Title Screen is a Video Game only Sub-Trope, applying only to the Start Screen and chosen by the Random Number God. |

Danny Gonzalez opens every video with "What's up Greg, I hope you're all having a great day, welcome to another episode of..." and then he makes up a new series title that is related to the video subject. He likewise ends every episode with, "I'll see you guys next week with a really interesting video where I..." and then makes up an absurd video idea that he never actually does. | |

Often, the Google logo will be changed (officially known as a "Google Doodle"). There are two reasons for the logo to be changed; either for a holiday or if the date celebrates a milestone of something. As of 2011, clicking on a Doodle will bring up a search for what its celebrating. For example, on May 21, 2010, the logo was replaced by a javascript Pac-Man game in the shape of the Google logo for the rest of the week. It was so popular that it even got its own permanent URL. If the user is signed in to their Google account and it's their birthday, a special Doodle replaces the logo. |

The Scathing Atheist opens their podcast on slightly different variations each week. Every show begins with Lucinda giving a different content warning that the following hour will be absolutely fucking obscene. Heath will then give a different fake sponsorship for the episode, usually in the form of a play on words of a religious phrase or product. There will then be a member of the atheist/secular community to quote Dr. Farnsworth's "we did in fact evolve from filthy monkey men." or some variation. |

The 2017 Nostalgiaween intro (which appeared before the five October reviews) parodies the early Treehouse of Horror openings, as well as the normal Simpsons opening, by panning over a graveyard, then ending with the crew gathering on a couch. The names on the graveyard (which serve as Take Thats to some outdated pop culture phenomenon) change every episode, as does the "couch gag" endingnote For Scary Godmother, Critic, Malcolm, and Tamara appear as animated ghosts; for It 2017, they get scared by a red balloon with eyes; for Halloween (2007) Critic appears dressed as Jason Vorhees wearing Freddy Krueger's glove; for The Mummy, Critic scares the others away by dressing as Jack Torrence; for The Mummy (2017) the group explodes into "Super Mecha Death Christ" after gathering on the couch.. | |

Twitch streamer The 8-Bit Drummer has a variation. Every one of his streams start with a different piece of music playing over some art of him rushing to his drum kit to get ready. Sometimes, he plays this straight and performs some kind of joke or gag, such as reading a dictionary upside down or having his wife at the kit, when the camera comes on. | |

Each of the longer Sam & Max: Freelance Police comics carries a title gag in the form of "Based on the [Media Type], [Silly Title]", such as Based on the famed Beat-generation novel, "Sam and Max Drive Around in a Car" by Bucky Kerouac. This tradition is carried over to Season 2 and 3 of Telltale's series of adventure games. The episode "Chariot of the Dogs", for example, is "Based on the best-selling addled-brained musings of noted aliens-made-all-our-stuff theorist Erich von Dannyohday" | |

Doctor Who Magazine always includes a joke or odd statement buried in the print indicia. This is a tradition that has come and gone over the years depending on editorial whim. (On one occasion, after it had lain fallow for some time, it suddenly said "I don't know why you're looking down here, we haven't had a joke here for ages".) | |

From Secret of Mana Theater: At the beginning of every episode Marle casts a spell with often different results. Since the beginning of the series, she's been crushed, fried, crushed some more, set on fire, mocked, hanged herself, been replaced a few times, been electrocuted, crushed some more, shrunk, exploded, atomized, chased, run over, been eaten, and has been stripped naked. When not being mutiliated beyond recognition, Marle has also engaged in riding the title card like a horse or walking on a giant ball, circus-style. Lucca and Magus from the same game have also appeared in openings. |

The Muppet Show has three of these: What Statler and Waldorf say during the opening sequence. The third season had this intersped with a joke taking place backstage. Gonzo blowing a bugle at the end of the opening, with something funny happening, like smoke blowing from it or weird music resulting. The first season had Gonzo striking the "O" in the show's logo like a gong with humorous results. The gong bit is an homage to the animated opening sequence for The Mickey Mouse Club, which ended with Donald Duck striking a gong with humorous results. What Statler and Waldorf say after the end credits. The first season had a fourth one. During the opening, Fozzie would tell a different joke each time, and usually get cut off. |

The Simpsons: Team L.A.S.H.: Imitating its source material, each chapter of this fic has two of them: the "to-do list gag" (basically the equivalent of the source material's "chalkboard gag"; Simon writes something down on his to-do list as he and his dad head off to school), and the "desk gag" (basically the equivalent of the source material's trope-naming "couch gag"; the four of them rush to their desks in Mrs. Gunderson's class, and Mrs. Gunderson turns on the projector). | |

Car Talk has the credits that make fun of the various people that work on the show, occasionally changing when a new in-joke or gag presents itself, such as Doug the "Subway Fugitive" Berman. The one credit that changed every week was for John "Bugsy" Lawlor, their "Technical, Spiritual, and Menu Advisor", who they would always claim was just back from some made-up, rhyming event involving food (for instance, the "Seneca Lake Rump Steak Spongecake Milkshake Bran Flake Shake 'n' Bake".) | |

For a few years, the outro for Game Grumps videos had a gag where their "Subscribe" bar would be misspelled in ways like "Slubscribe," "Slurburb," or "Sruburbs." In the second episode of the Super Mario Bros. playthrough, Dan decides to name the "Subscribe" bar "Scribey" and asks Barry to give it a smiley face, so the bar gets a smile and googly eyes. | |

The intro of RedLetterMedia's review show Half in the Bag consists of Plinkett placing a beer bottle in a popcorn bag, announcing the title, and pulling away the bag as he makes a short declaration of some kind that may or may not have to do with the episode's content. Some of these are recurring, while others are only used once. | |

When pro wrestler Bryan Danielson was Ring Of Honor World Heavyweight Champion, he had a Couch Gag of coercing the ring announcer to give him a different flattering title before every match, usually some sort of Cheap Heat relating to his opponent or where he was wrestling. Said titles included "the best wrestler in the entire world, with an emphasis on entire world," "the best wrestler to ever step foot in the ECW Arena," "even better than The Beatles," "the best champion in ROH history," and "really too good to wrestle in front of all these pricks." | |

Questionable Content The specials board at Coffee of Doom, which always shows ridiculous things like "Cup o' Bees", "Mocha with a hair in it", and "We murder you". Faye has commented that no one ever orders the specials, which is fine with her because then she doesn't have to make them. When no-nonsense Penelope was left in charge, the specials were ordinary drinks, pastries, and a request to not chat with her, which of course was ignored. Recently Jeph expolred a third way with "Banana Latte, Banana Bread, Banana Brownies, We got way too many bananas!" Truth in Television if you've ever dealt with having over-ordered a perishable item. There are also some recurring jokes on the main menu board, including a drink size "WTF" and a beverage sold as "Frappuccino Ripoff". |

Gonzo blowing a bugle at the end of the opening, with something funny happening, like smoke blowing from it or weird music resulting. The first season had Gonzo striking the "O" in the show's logo like a gong with humorous results. The gong bit is an homage to the animated opening sequence for The Mickey Mouse Club, which ended with Donald Duck striking a gong with humorous results. | |

The poster shown at the very start, the music played during it, and the images of the Survivors the players are controlling for that season all change, the former two being the poster and intro music for the campaign in question and the latter just being the Survivors doing silly things. | |

In many newspaper comics, the title panel of Sunday strips are often different in some way. Some strips, such as Foxtrot, simply have the logo a different color. Others, such as Garfield, have an entirely different piece of artwork for each strip. It is often mandatory to waste the first panel on a couch gag for syndication, so that newspapers can cut them for space. | |

Very frequently in old-school Marvel books, especially The Amazing Spider Man and Fantastic Four, Stan Lee would "fancy up" the credit box on the first page. The gags would range from simple nicknames ("by Stan "the Man" Lee and Jack "King" Kirby!") to brutal Self-Deprecation ("written by Stan Lee... because we couldn't afford Mickey Spillane!") A Running Gag in these would be Stan denigrating some Butt-Monkey staffer, most commonly letterer Artie Simek; when Simek grew annoyed with this, it was changed to the fictional Irving Forbush (the "hero" of Marvel's gag series Not Brand Echh). |

The French comic book Asterix in general ends its adventures with the villagers of Asterix's home having a celebratory banquet, where they have to tie up their bard Cacofonix so that he doesn't give a song. This changes on a few occasions. In stories where Cacofonix has given a hand he is untied and given a seat at the banquet (Asterix and the Normans, The Mansions of the Gods). In "Asterix and Caesar's Gift" and "Asterix and the Secret Weapon" he is having a chat with a girl. In "Asterix and the Magic Carpet" he is far away in India, while his rival Fulliautomatix is sadly awaiting his arrival. The exception to this case is "Asterix the Gladiator" (the first story with Cacofonix having a major role). In "Asterix and the Soothsayer" he is content, having dreams of eventual renown to keep him satisfied. In "Asterix in Spain" he is laughing at Obelix imitating Spanish dancing. In "Asterix and the Laurel Wreath" and "Asterix and the Picts" he is chatting with someone. In "Asterix in Corsica" he is surprised to find Dogmatix keeping him some company. In "Asterix and the Roman Agent" thanks to the slander that divides the village, one banquet features Cacofonix (the only one not caught up in the arguments) having an Imagine Spot where everyone else in the village is tied up, in a tragic reversal of the norm. Thankfully, another banquet is held at the end where all is set right and he is tied up. In "Obelix and Co" he is held down by a menhir. |

The Wicked + The Divine: Every chapter begins and ends with the icon wheel, showing representations of each god as well as their status. Some sections of the wheel are empty, representing gods not yet known by the media. Dead gods have their icons replaced by skulls. Once Luci is arrested, her icon has bars over it. When Baphomet bursts onto the scene, his icon appears for the first time in the wheel while wreathed in fire. Likewise, when Dionysus is introduced, his symbol appears in color, to highlight the imagery of pills hanging from the vine instead of grapes. |

The LoadingReadyRun Magic the Gathering-centred show Friday Nights has its opening sequence feature the cast in custom Magic the Gathering joke cards whose details change each episode. The episode Unusual, focused around the official joke set "Unstable", plays with the expectations by having the cast cards be reasonably balanced and not looking mechanically out of place for an official set. The episode The Exile Zone, an homage to The Twilight Zone breaks the pattern — instead of the cast, the cards are official MTG cards that fit the theme of the episode. | |

Todd in the Shadows opens each of his videos with a piano rendition of the song being reviewed. If it's a special review, like a top ten list, he will simply play a song from that year or theme. Rare exceptions include movie reviews (though at times he plays a song from the soundtrack), and "Sexy and I Know It", where Todd refuses to play the song. In the Trainwreckords episodes, Todd instead plays a piano rendition of one of the album's songs is played over the credits. Except for Van Halen III and The Funky Headhunter, where instead he goes with a better known song from the artist ("Ain't Talkin' 'bout Love" and "U Can't Touch This"). The other two series have song snippets play over the end credits. The song at the end of normal pop song reviews will be something tangentially related to the song or the circumstances around it (which often functions as a subtle Take That!, like Tammy Wynette's "D-I-V-O-R-C-E" at the end of the "Dear Future Husband" review). One Hit Wonderland instead uses a cover of the reviewed song. Regardless of series, Todd almost always finishes his commentary by signing off and walking out of frame before the last few seconds of the song/music video play before cutting to credits. Memorably, the atrocious Asian stereotype at the end of Talk Dirty To Me made him frantically rush back into the scene and delay the credits to express his horror. |

This was done to an even greater extent earlier on in Ring of Honor, during Steve Corino's run in 2003. Prior to every match he would have personal ring announcer Bobby Cruise announce a ridiculously, painfully long list of something that usually served as a means of mocking his opponents. For example, when facing the notoriously straight-edge CM Punk, Corino's list consisted of famous wrestlers with histories with drugs and alcohol that Corino aspired to be like. | |

Each episode of Drawfee starts with a speed drawing of a coffee cup designed to look like whatever the topic of the video is. | |

Zero Punctuation has a five-frame "comic" in every end credits sequence. Before getting an official title song, Yahtzee used music with a title or theme that was related to the game reviewed. | |

Transmetropolitan at the end of each issue, the three eyed smiley face would be shown in a way somehow related to the content of the issue (walking in the rain, smoking a cigarette, etc.) | |

Strong Bad Email frequently changes the menu's mini-song about scroll buttons, the opening mini-song about email checking and the 'So until next time...' ending. | |

At the end of every videon Skawo sits there and waits for the video to end, and more often than not gets hurt, or annoyed. Not always though. | |

After the recap of his origins and before the plot starts, every Captain Underpants book starts with George and Harold rearranging the letters on a different sign to say something silly. | |

It is a tradition among Friday Night Funkin' mods to hide a secret message in the opening credits before the logo comes on. Some are nonsense, some thank the fans who helped get it off the ground, and some offer opinions on the piece of media the mod is referencing. Loading screens for individual mods may also contain gags, oftentimes advocating for the engine they use. | |

Similar to the Bryan Danielson example above, starting in the latter months of 2020, Kenny Omega began having AEW's ring announcer Justin Roberts rattling off a Long List of Omega-related trivia, which always included something that would relate to "NOOORTH CAROLIIINAAA!" (emphasis important) before concluding his introduction. | |

Unforgotten Realms begins every episode with a black screen with a message about "the following episode", which is accompanied by an announcer-type voice not-quite reading the message word-for-word. The white text has deviated further and further from what the voice says in later episodes. Variations have included "The following episode may or may not contain the word 'tiddly wank'", "The following episode did not care for the new Batman movie", and "The following episode will not have one of those 'the following episode' announcements at the start of it." Episode Nine actually doesn't have one, cutting immediately into the recap and title theme. But at the end, the familiar screen shows up to inform you that "the following episode is over" | |

The wiki signs: Wikipedia has signs that tell users a page needs information, lacks it, is not objective, etc. Other wikis take advantage and use their themes in their pages. For example: in the Harry Potter wiki, they have "'Homenum Revelio!' [S]poilers will be present within the article. Please take care when reading this article if you do not wish to be spoiled." for spoiler alert. | |
