A Fridge Run is exactly what it sounds like, the frantic rush to the refrigerator during commercials, done only during a show that is so good that you would rather hear Vogon poetry than miss a minute of it. Be aware that according to former Turner Broadcasting CEO Jamie Kellner (the man who screwed over Animaniacs, Freakazoid!, and World Championship Wrestling), as quoted in a 2002 interview with Cableworld, you're not allowed to do this because you have an alleged implicit contract with the broadcaster to watch the commercials. Every last one. (He did reluctantly allow you to go to the bathroom, though.) Though as Sam Goldwyn might have said, an implied contract isn't worth the paper it's implied to be written on. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })This may be on its way to becoming a Discredited Trope with the rise of on-demand TV and digital recording services, meaning you can watch these at your leisure later and skip the ad breaks. If you go the fridge at the end of the show, you might start questioning the plot, realizing clever details, or having a scary epiphany. Of course, if your refrigerator is itself running, you may have trouble catching it. |

Used as a plot point in the movie Flushed Away (half-time in a World Cup final between England and Germany). Also in an episode of AAAHH!!! Real Monsters, wherein every year during the "Great Flush" (ie, the Superbowl), the monsters hold a surfing competition. |
