Genre Roulette is what the name suggests: A single work that switches between distinct story genres, seemingly at random, e.g. a TV show switches from Comedy then Romance into Horror in just one episode. As it's hard enough to write well in one genre, Genre Roulette can be hard to pull off seriously. Comedies and parodies, on the other hand, usually don't raise any eyebrows when they do this, provided they continue to bring the funny. Musical Genre Roulette is closely related to Genre Mashup. The difference is that a Genre Roulette album can have a country song followed by a punk song, while an Genre Mashup album will have a song that's country and punk at the same time. (For the curious, that genre actually exists and is known as cowpunk.) Making matters more complicated is that it is possible to write a song that fuses country and punk (which is Genre Mashup) and a song that suddenly shifts from country to punk mid-song (which is probably more an example of Genre Roulette). For this reason it's often difficult to define where one trope ends and the next begins, especially since some bands liberally use both techniques. When applied to video game genres (i.e., the style of gameplay), it's Gameplay Roulette. When you are changing genres despite having worked exclusively with only one before, it becomes a Genre Shift. Compare/Contrast with Genre-Busting, which has its story genres established from the very beginning, whereas Genre Roulette will continuously switch between genres as the story progresses. See also Genre-Prolific Creator when it's applied to different works made by the same person. |

Hivefled started off as a soap opera, descended into Gorn, then went into action thriller, then into a light-hearted adventure, then back to the action until the two stories met, upon which the genre did a 180 and became a wacky comedy, though now it's becoming a dramedy. | |

Now and Again was ostensibly a sci-fi show, but no two episodes were the same. Superhuman Michael Wiseman was a miscellaneous man for hire when he wasn't a lab rat, countering threats ranging from spies to killer insects. Wiseman's wife and daughter provided some family dramedy as well as they tried to get on with their lives in the wake of Michael's apparent death. | |

Machi features seven routes, each in a wildly different genre (Keima's route is a humorous Detective Drama, Ichikawa's route is pretty much horror, Yoshiko's route is slapstick, etc). Notably there's no overarching plot at all, and compared to Kamaitachi no Yoru (where the player could at least choose a route and play that until the end), in Machi the player has no choice but to jump between routes all the time in order to make progress, so the genre shifts become all the more noticeable. | |

Brigadoon: Marin and Melan is a sci-fi adventure drama, but it's also a middle-school Slice of Life show, a comedy with occasional parodic elements, and a teen romance. One minute you're in the middle of a serious political discussion at an alien council, and the next minute, the aliens are trying to settle their dispute with a pie fight. Serious Mood Whiplash may result. | |

Heroes For Hope, an X-Men charity one-shot from the 80s, has twenty credited writers, including comic book luminaries like Stan Lee and Alan Moore and famous authors like Stephen King, George R. R. Martin, and Harlan Ellison. While you can't fault the pedigree or the good intentions, considering each writer is swapped out every two to three pages, the story is all over the map. Within ten pages, the book goes from a morose Magneto nightmare about famine zombies with "dead babies still clinging pointlessly to dead breasts" to Storm getting a Pie in the Face. | |

Sluggy Freelance tends to change its genre with every Story Arc. Compare the fantasy epic shown in these strips from 2004, to this Sitcom-style Broke Episode from 2005, to this crime thriller from 2006, to this Fantastic Comedy from 2007. The only consistent trait is that most strips have some sort of joke in them, but even that's not always the case. | |

Franco De Vita: The album Simplemente la verdad (Simply The Truth) provides several songs that are played in a particular musical genre each; examples include "Cántame" (Sing For Me) which is strongly inspired in Joropo music, "Callo" (I'm Silent) which combines salsa with a tropical flavor, "Diez años y un dÃa" (Ten Years And One Day) which is rock-based, and so on. | |

While every season of Criminal Case has the basic premise of solving murders to advance levels and continue with the story, each installment brings a different theme to the overall plot and setting where the player has to solve the underlying mystery surrounding the narrative. Criminal Case: Grimsborough is a standard Police Procedural set in a Vice City with mostly self-contained stories in each district, though the last few cases shift the plot to a Conspiracy Thriller focused on an Ancient Conspiracy. Criminal Case: Pacific Bay is another Police Procedural set in a coastal city and with a Darker and Edgier approach, as a good chunk of the main characters are either Hardboiled Detectives, Anti Heroes, or both. In addition, the last few arcs shift focus to a full-blown Science Fiction Thriller. Criminal Case: World Edition is a World Tour with Spy Fiction elements. Criminal Case: Mysteries of the Past is a Historical Detective Fiction. Criminal Case: The Conspiracy is a Conspiracy Thriller with heavy emphasis on sci-fi. Criminal Case: Travel in Time is a Time Travel story focused on the Set Right What Once Went Wrong category. In addition, the different eras and time periods visited during the journey basically makes the main characters Tour Guide Detectives. Criminal Case: Supernatural Investigations has the primary premise of Paranormal Investigations where the main characters are also Amateur Sleuths, and spices things up with the theme of Family of Choice. Criminal Case: City of Romance goes backs to the series' roots and becomes another standard Police Procedural as a way to conclude it with a Grand Finale. |

Each episode of The Hire has a different tone, genre, and style, due to each episode being helmed by wildly different directors infusing their unique Signature Style into the episode they're writing and directing. As such, the series has run the gamut from serious dramas to lighthearted slapstick to sci-fi. The only consistent elements that all the episodes share are the Driver and his BMW. | |

The Black Crowes are most easily classified as a hard rock band, but their specific sub-genre shifts with each album. While their first two albums were pure hard rock, from there they did Garage Rock —> Psychedelic Rock —> soul-influenced rock —> Blues Rock —> Southern Rock —> folk/country rock. There's a reason they're nicknamed "the most rock n roll rock n roll band in the world." | |

Ah! My Goddess has been around for a while, and it goes through quite a few arcs that shake up the usual screwball Romantic Comedy for more serious fare. The classic Out-of-Genre Experience was the Lord of Terror arc, where Urd shifted from Pretty Freeloader to world-threatening menace, and several later arcs were also more fantasy adventure or romantic drama, to say nothing of several arcs focused around motorcycle racing. These gradually became more common, until by the Niflheim arc, it was a full-fledged fantasy adventure series with a romance-focused premise, largely because Keiichi and Belldandy's relationship had been frozen at a middle-school level for so long that there was really nothing more that the author could do with it. | |

Floor Jansen is best known as a Symphonic Metal singer (mainly for After Forever and Nightwish), but she also loves Hard Rock and is trained in classical singing and musical theatre. Her collaboration Northward with Jørn Viggo Lofstad ranges from Power Pop to Traditional Heavy Metal depending on the song, and in her appearance on the Dutch music competition show Beste Zangers she performed everything from "The Phantom of the Opera" to "Shallow". | |

Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero is about three kids who travel to other dimensions, each one a different genre (and some of them a mix of genres). One episode could be The Western where people ride dinosaurs, another a fairy-tale musical, and another a Silence of the Lambs parody with cereal mascots. | |

The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh does this. The series is just as likely to be adventure as it is slice of life, and while a lot of episodes are straight comedy, others get pretty dark or dramatic. Specific episodes dip into all kinds of genres, including: Horror, with its many subgenres, including parodies of B-Movies ("Pooh Oughta Be in Pictures"), Ghost Stories ("Things That Go Piglet in the Night"), Gothic Horror ("The Monster Frankenpooh"), and Slasher Movies ("Sorry, Wrong Slusher"). Trapped in Another World fantasy, whether it's an Eldritch Location ("Cleanliness is Next to Impossible"), a Magical Land ("All's Well That Ends Wishing Well"), a World in the Sky ("Pooh Skies"), or a Medieval European Fantasy ("A Knight to Remember"). Crime fiction (The episodes featuring the Pack Rats or Stan and Heff). Mysteries ("Tigger, Private Ear", "Eeyore's Tail Tale", and "Sham Pooh"). Westerns ("Paw and Order" and "The Good, The Bad, and the Tigger"). Sports Stories ("Prize Piglet" and "What's the Score, Pooh?"). Pirate Stories ("Rabbit Marks the Spot"). Superhero Stories ("The Masked Offender"). War stories ("To Bee or Not to Bee"). Fractured Fairy Tale ("Three Little Piglets"). Coming-of-age/family drama ("Find Her, Keep Her"). Sometimes, an episode can't even make up its mind what it wants to be. In "Pooh Moon", some characters think they're in a ghost story and others think they're in an outer space sci-fi, while "To Catch a Hiccup" starts as a lighthearted slapstick comedy but shifts partway into horror. |

The Excel♡Saga anime played this with pretty much every episode being a parody of a certain genre. Everything from War Movies, to Dating Sims, to Sports, to Variety Shows to Post-Apocalyptic is given a once over. Excel Saga made a point of this, opening every episode with manga author Koshi Rikdo giving his (reluctant) approval to give the series a Genre Shift. The style and weirdness remained consistent enough despite this, however. | |

Given the nature of the SCP Foundation, a catalogue of all sorts of detained paranormal phenomena, it's bound to end up as this. The website started towards it being more orientated towards horror, which is the common way to describe the site, but SCP entries are very varied in tone to reflect that the weird isn't always traditionally scary. The variation of the site includes SCP entities that are: Conventional horror SCP entities (as in the ones that are scary via a shock image or Wham Line) are what the site is mainly known for and are present in the likes of SCP-173, 087, and 106. Lovecraftian SCP entities that are scary via Nothing Is Scarier or through sheer ideas would include 093 (a universe gone horribly wrong due to the return of either God or an Eldritch Abomination posing as God) and 055 (an entity that makes you forget what it is and when you think of it). Straight up weird SCP entities that leave you more confused than anything, like 500 (pills that have miraculous healing properties) or 447 (an otherwise seemingly useful substance with minty-fresh properties, but will have potentially world-ending consequences if it somehow ever physically interacts with a dead body). Then there are the comedic SCP entities like 1171 (an Eldritch Abomination that hates humans in a not Nazish way, but rather Racist Grandpa way) or his friend 2662 (a parody of Cthulhu that wants to be contained because he can't stand his own cults). Let's not forget 261, a vending machine that can dispose anything with silent passive aggressive Deadpan Snarker tendencies. The site also has heartwarming SCP entities like 999 (an insanely friendly and harmless Blob Monster that loves to tickle people) and 2295 (a healing teddy bear made by a benevolent witch for her dying grandson). Finally, we have SCP creatures that are pretty much everything at once like the infamous hard to destroy lizard that is 682. It's straight up scary visually, scary in a Lovecraftian sense due to its invulnerable nature and murderous hatred... and pretty darkly funny since its testing logs just reek of Foundation desperation and bad ideas. |

Riverdale can switch between genres within a single episode (partly due to having an Ensemble Cast in multiple simultaneous plotlines). It can go from being a Teen Drama Coming of Age Story to a Amateur Sleuth Detective Drama to a Criminal Procedural and back again, with an occasional dose of The Musical and all with a heavy Film Noir influence. It isn't surprising to learn one of its main inspirations was Twin Peaks, which is also on this list. | |

While Star Wars: The Clone Wars primarily remained true to the Science Fantasy Space Opera-genre of the movie saga, it also weaved dosens of other genres in. Just a few examples: The large battle-centric episodes/arcs are often straight-up mini-Military and Warfare Films, most notable of which is the Umbara-arc. The Mortis-trilogy, "Nomad Droids", a large portion of the Darth Maul-storyline, and the Yoda-arc are pure Fantasy stories set in space. "Senate Spy", "Duchess of Mandalore", "Pursuit Of Peace", "Senate Murders", the Season 4 Obi-Wan undercover-arc, the Season 5 Fugitive Ahsoka-arc, and the Season 6 Fives-arc are Conspiracy Thrillers. The Zillo-duology is a Monster movie. "Legacy of Terror", "Brain Invaders" and "Massacre" edge on being Horror episodes. |

The Racket-Rotter Chronicles seems to change genre with every new Arc; It starts off as a Slice of Life Romance with comedic overtones (Arc 1), then becomes more of a dramedy (Arc 2), then turns into Gorn/Horror (Arc 3), and is now currently a sort of horror/friendship hybrid (Arc 4). | |

Higurashi: When They Cry: It starts out looking like a generic story about some youths (potentially a Coming of Age Story or part of the Harem Genre) before abruptly switching into Psychological Horror. Then the second arc begins, repeating the cycle. Over the course of the series, it becomes clear that the story is actually a Mystery as well, and the last arcs add a dose of action. | |

Space☆Dandy tells a different story with every episode, which can span a wide range of story structures and tones. It incorporates the multiple genres well, which is largely due to the fact that, with the exception of the finale, each episode is a self contained story, and nothing that happens in one episode (even literally everyone dying) will affect the next episode. | |

Undertale starts out looking like a kid friendly game where you try to get "friendliness" pellets, but moves within five seconds to a dark, definitely not kid-friendly bullet hell. Then, it's tone shifts from standard, light-hearted puzzle game, to quirky RPG parody, straight to tear jerking deconstruction of said RPG. And that's all in the first Area! Additionally, depending on how many enemies you kill, the game can shift between a once-more quirky character comedy, to a bittersweet story about a lone child in a harsh world, to Spec Ops: The Line: The RPG, to "Genocide Simulator 2015". |

100 gecs have reached notoriety on the internet for their extremely unorthodox style of experimental pop that slices and dices many genres into a chaotic maelstrom of sounds. Their debut album, 1000 gecs, is a display of this trope in full force and a half as it is influenced from popular genres from the 'noughties and new tens like hip hop, nightcore, drum and bass, bubblegum pop, crunkcore, emo, synthpop, EDM and even third-wave ska, all layered on top of Laura Les's heavily autotuned vocals. | |

The Turtles' 1968 album The Turtles Present: The Battle of the Bands is a one-album example of this trope. In here, the Turtles pretend to be 11 separate competing bands, and cover as many genres as possible, including surf rock ("Surfer Dan"), sunshine pop (Top 10 hit "Elenore"), and even faux-Hawaiian novelty with suggestive lyrics. ("I'm Chief Kamanawanalea" - try saying that slowly!) | |

Steve is in a coming-of-age Teen Drama. He's known for one-night stands, but finally finds a nice, intelligent girl that he wants to spend time with. He gets her to come to a party, and they consummate their relationship, only for her to turn distant. He mistakenly believes she is cheating on him, and when he tells his friends, they start slut-shaming her around town. He eventually dumps his friends and starts making up for the things he let them do, then goes to apologize to his girlfriend... only to find that she's actually in the monster movie discussed above. | |

Whenever members of 4chan's /mu/ board get together to make an album, the results are usually as eclectic as the board's highly opinionated tastes. Songs and titles are often chosen by post numbers ending in double digits. An album could contain folk songs right next to chiptunes and harsh noise, all with deliberately strange and vulgar titles. When bothered to actually put their work in a genre, /mu/tants give their albums pretentious and obscure-sounding categories like "Post-Avant Jazzcore" and "Progressive Dreamfunk". | |

Love, Death & Robots is comprised of several animated shorts that vary wildly in genre and mood, although as the title suggests, the most common themes are science fiction (sometimes verging into Science Fantasy), horror and romance. Sonnie's Edge" is a gritty action-heavy Cyberpunk Rape and Revenge story served with a side of Feminist Fantasy. A tough-as-nails rape survivor gets revenge on powerful and dangerous men in a grim future Britain where Beastly Bloodsports using genetically engineered Kaiju is entertainment. "Three Robots" is a lighthearted comedy where a trio of very snarky robots comment and speculate about humans by travelling through a ruined city after the humans are long gone. "The Witness" is a trippy and surrealist thriller that combines live-action and animation, where a man and a woman are trapped in a "Groundhog Day" Loop, taking turns to murder each other. "Suits" is an action packed mix of country scenery and Mecha Anime, where tough, determined space hicks take on alien devourers a la Starcraft. "Sucker of Souls" ditches Sci-Fi elements in favour of a Dark Fantasy action-horror tinged episode about a team of modern mercenaries who have to deal with Dracula after their expedition stumbles onto his resting place. "When The Yogurt Took Over" is a lighthearted and odd Sci-Fi comedy that is also a commentary on the dangers of artificial intelligence and how it could quietly make humanity irrelevant. "Beyond The Aquila Rift" starts out as a strange thriller set in outer space that eventually turns into a Cosmic Horror Story. "Good Hunting" is a Miyazaki-esque Steampunk romance story set in an alternate Qing-era China ("Silk Punk" if you will), with themes of Chinese identity and anti-imperialism. Liang, a Chinese Gadgeteer Genius and Yan, a huli ying, both have to adapt in a rapidly-changing world. "The Dump" flips the switch often between Black Comedy and horror elements, with a lot of Fan Disservice. "Shape-Shifters" is an action-oriented military story with werewolves and little to no comedy. "Helping Hand" is a Life-or-Limb Decision, done by a space janitor as she's busy fixing a satellite. "Fish Night" is a trippy animation about a Ghost Story, or depending on who you ask, an Urban Fantasy retelling of the story of Icarus. "Lucky 13" is a Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane sci-fi story about an "unlucky" dropship, its new Space Marine pilot and their bond. |

The genres the characters find themselves in are shaken up in subsequent seasons. For example, in Season 2 Joyce and Hop participate in the sci-fi horror as they struggle to understand what's going on with Will; Steve and the kids gradually find themselves in the sequel to the monster movie, only unfortunately for them it's now become Aliens instead of "just" Alien; Jonathan and Nancy take over the Government Conspiracy plot-line with exposing Hawkins Lab; and Eleven goes on an epic quest to find out who she truly is and how to control her powers, similar to Luke in The Empire Strikes Back, but which plays out in practice more like an Urban Fantasy reinterpretation of a grim urban Teen Drama based around urban decay in the inner city a la The Warriors. | |

The Fallout series constantly plays with different genres, both in terms of gameplay and story/tone. Overall, the series is a Science Fiction Wide-Open Sandbox Western RPG series set After the End in an Alternate History that heavily satirizes Cold War-era Americana. The first few games created under Interplay Entertainment/Black Isle Studios feature turn-based combat and 2D graphics through an isometric perspective. Starting with the series being bought by Bethesda, the series has undergone a Genre Shift to now being 3D first/third-person shooters with real-time combat (making them Action RPG hybrids by consequence). |

Secret Chiefs 3, a project helmed by Mr. Bungle guitarist Trey Spruance, eventually started crediting songs on their albums to seven different "satellite bands", each with their own loosely defined style. So far two "satelite bands" have had spinoff albums of their own - Ishraqiyun's Perichoresis, a collection of songs influenced by various types of Afghani music, and Traditionalists' Le Mani Destri Recise Degli Ultimi Uomini, Goblin-inspired pieces presented as the soundtrack to a non-existent Giallo. | |

Black Mirror. Although it is primarily speculative science-fiction with a dash of social commentary, every story is self-contained and the genre changes with each episode. Just taking Season 3 as an example, you have Road Trip Plot ("Nosedive"), Psychological Horror ("Playtest"), romance ("San Junipero"), war story ("Men Against Fire") and Nordic Noir Police Procedural ("Hated in the Nation"). | |

Every game in the Far Cry series is a First-Person Shooter, but the setting and genre changes each game. Far Cry is an action/science fiction game. Far Cry 2 is a grim, realistic shooter with no unnatural elements. Far Cry 3 is another action movie style shooter like Far Cry, more serious than Far Cry but less serious than Far Cry 2, with several hallucinogenic-laced Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane moments. Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon is an Affectionate Parody of After the End Science Fiction action films of the 1980s, and 80s pop culture in general. Far Cry 4 is the least different Far Cry game, compared to Far Cry 3. It is also an action movie style shooter like Far Cry 3, though perhaps less serious than Far Cry 3, and with a ton of Tibetan Buddhist inspired Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane moments that are possibly hallucinogenic-laced.. but are so overtly magical that it is hard to believe that they aren't really magic (well, unless the hallucinogenics are just that strong and are everywhere). Far Cry Primal takes place in prehistoric times, and as such probably has the least amount of action and is the closest to having real magic. Also while it is probably the second most serious game after Far Cry 2, it is also the most optimistic game in the series. |

Red vs. Blue: The in-universe movie trilogy starring Sarge (as featured in the non-canon PSAs) gets this during its second installment, thanks to Sarge and Donut trying to reach a broader audience. It starts out as the same kind of dramatic action movie as the first, before becoming a buddy cop movie when Tucker is introduced, then a romantic movie (Sarge ships himself with Lopez), then Sarge and Tucker have to go about Saving Christmas from the terminal disease that is the Zombie Apocalypse... and there's a musical in there somewhere. | |

Origin went this route on Entity; while it contains plenty of examples of their typical sound (Expulsion of Fury, Conceiving Death, Swarm, Saligia, Consequence of Solution), they toss in deathgrind (Purgatory, Fornever, Banishing Illusion), straightforward brutal death metal (Evolution of Extinction), and an incredibly bizarre and unsettling noise-grind track (Committed). Hell, even the songs done in their usual style on the album occasionally pull this; Expulsion of Fury, for example, starts with a frantic tapping riff more akin to Brain Drill or Anomalous before transitioning right into a thick groove right out of the Bolt Thrower playbook. | |

Wonder Woman Vol 1: In the Golden Age the book was a Superhero story foremost, but issues focusing on Steve Trevor were Spy Fiction, issues focusing on Etta Candy were generally Westerns, Holliday Girl issues were Teen Drama Mysteries, and rather often the characters would travel to a different world, sub-dimension or time to allow for an issue of Chivalric Romance, Heroic Fantasy, or an adventure on the high seas. There was even a baseball issue, that was mixed with Spy Fiction as a Steve Trevor focused tale. | |

In A Song of Ice and Fire, the genre can vary depending upon the individual character's story. Although the series could loosely be described as Fantasy House Of Cards, there are many more genres. Ned's story in the first book is a dark noir detective genre. Anytime magic itself shows up in the series, it's usually supernatural horror. Euron's role in the story becomes eldritch horror, while his nephew Theon's story is more psychological horror. Jon Snow's fake defection to the Wildlings has the trappings of a spy genre struggling to play the part without Becoming the Mask. His oldest sister Sansa is living in a Prison Break story, except she's stuck at the mercy of an feudal tyrant, has no (real) allies, and is limited to the skills of a 12 year-old. Even when someone does "break her out", the reader knows that she has just traded her physical shackles for psychological ones. And there are more genres beyond this. | |

The Godzilla series does this frequently. Though every film is of course a Kaiju movie at heart, other genre elements are dropped into most installments both for the sake of variety and to cash in on current trends in the Japanese film industry. Many of them could be described as "X but with monsters." Godzilla (1954) and Godzilla Raids Again are essentially black-and-white horror films where the monsters are played entirely for scares and great emphasis is put on the death toll caused by their rampages. King Kong vs. Godzilla is a "salaryman comedy" and partially a spoof of the earlier Kong and Godzilla films, with the monsters presented more as annoyances than legitimate threats and more emphasis placed on humor. Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster is a spy movie. Invasion of Astro-Monster is half Space Opera and half Alien Invasion film. Ebirah, Horror of the Deep and Son of Godzilla are Island of Mystery-based tropical adventure films. All Monsters Attack is a Slice of Life Coming of Age story about a bullied child who looks up to Godzilla like a superhero. Godzilla only appears in dream scenes. Destroy All Monsters, Godzilla vs. Gigan, and Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla are all alien invasion films. Godzilla vs. Hedorah is a surreal horror film with hallucinogenic animated portions. Terror of Mechagodzilla is a spy film and an alien invasion flick, pitting Interpol agents against the secretive invaders. Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah is a Time Travel story and a World War II movie. Godzilla and Mothra: The Battle for Earth is an Indiana Jones-esque adventure film. Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla is a Yakuza film. Godzilla: Final Wars is an almost unclassifiable fusion of futuristic sci-fi, alien invasion, superhero film, martial arts film, and self-parody. Shin Godzilla is a dark political satire that uses Godzilla's attacks as a means of critiquing the modern Japanese government's ineffective responses to disasters like the Fukushima incident in 2011. |

The Scooby-Doo franchise has never been shy about dipping its fingers (paws?) in multiple genres, which may be why it's managed to last so long. The 1969 original was a rather capricious blend of kid-friendly horror, comedy and mystery, with even the occasional science-fiction episode. note Most notably "Foul Play in Funland", which cast a robot as the Monster of the Week. Following in its footsteps, later shows and movies tend to emphasize just one of those genres per story, depending on where the Mystery Machine ends up. For example, any story with a costumed crook tends to emphasize the mystery, while stories with real monsters (like Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island) emphasize the horror, stories with more overtly mystical elements (like Scooby-Doo! and the Witch's Ghost) emphasize the fantasy, stories with tech-savvy villains (like Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders and Scooby-Doo and the Cyber Chase) emphasize the sci-fi, and stories that play up Scooby and Shaggy's antics (like Scooby-Doo! and the Reluctant Werewolf and Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School) are pure comedy. | |

In keeping with Moore's (and Dr. Gull's) view of history as a complex multi-faceted structure that can be viewed and understood from multiple angles and perspectives, From Hell sometimes seems to shift genres depending on whose viewpoint we're seeing. To whit: from Abberline's perspective, the story comes off as a more-or-less standard Police Procedural following the heroic detective pursuing the evil serial killer; from the prostitutes' perspective, it's a gritty crime drama following the daily struggle to survive in the seedy underbelly of London; from Walter Sickert's perspective, it's a personal drama about middle-class Victorian life; and from Gull's perspective, it's experimental speculative fiction incorporating concepts like mysticism, predestination and time travel. note Note that the fantastical elements are never seen from anyone's perspective other than Gull's, leaving open the possibility that he was an Unreliable Narrator. | |

All of StarCraft is made of this, dependent on which races are shown interacting. When only Terrans are present, it's a heavily character-focused Used Future Space Western. All Zerg interaction with the other races is the Horror genre, from monsters bursting out of the ground, to the grotesque infested Terrans, to a monstrous alien queen stalking through a spaceship and slowly consuming the crew. The minute the Protoss enter the picture, it's High Fantasy (In Space), with visions, ancient prophecies, psychic links and the like. |

The Amazing World of Gumball: Its default genre is a kids-in-school/family animated sitcom (a la seasons one and two of The Simpsons or Diary of a Wimpy Kid), but it constantly slips into other genres: "The Pizza" is a post-apocalyptic adventure. "The Mirror," "The Joy," and "Halloween" are horror. "The Tape" and "The Sweaters" are cheesy sitcoms. "The Kids" and "The Shell" are coming-of-age stories. "The Lesson" is a prison drama. "The Countdown" is a time travel story. "The Routine" is a high fantasy. "The Comic" parodies a superhero origin story. "The Bus" is a high-octane crime adventure, parodying Speed. "The Detective" is a mystery/noir. "The Others" is a 90s teen dramedy. "The Agent" is a Bond-style secret agent story. |

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen goes, in order of publication, from Steampunk thriller to Victorian Alien Invasion to a combination of 1950s spy thriller and Zeerust (with multiple other genre pastiches inside a Book Within a Book) to musical set in the 1910s to psychedelic occult story set in the 1960s to a Black Comedy parody of Harry Potter set in 2009. And we don't even know what all the final volume will get into by the time it's done. Seeing as how it's setting contains characters and elements from all genres of fiction, this is probably to be expected. | |

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is told in different parts, with each part featuring a different member of the Joestar family as its protagonist, and often times a radically different plot. The stories of each part can range from a Victorian drama about fighting vampires, to a more comedic school life story about tracking down a serial killer. | |

Shadow and Bone falls under the fantasy umbrella as a whole, but switches between different genres/sub-genres depending on whose storyline we're currently following. As mentioned in its Genre Mashup entry, the lines between them get increasingly blurred as the three main plotlines intersect more; by the end of the first season it's less Roulette and more Mashup. The A-plot involving Alina and Mal is a more typical High Fantasy Coming of Age story; plucky orphan Alina finds out she's The Chosen One, attends magic school and uncovers the dark truth behind the evil that threatens her home, while Mal goes on a quest to find a magical creature and be reunited with Alina. The B-plot about Kaz, Inej and Jesper is more of a Low Fantasy take on The Caper about a group of anti-hero criminal masterminds plotting to kidnap Alina and smuggle her over the border while avoiding the authorities and rival crims. The C-plot about Nina and Mattias is a survival story combined with an "enemies to lovers" romance, with a dash of Paranormal Romance considering Nina's powers; the two start out as sworn enemies until they get shipwrecked and must rely on each other to get back to civilisation, developing feelings for each other along the way. |

The Vinyl and Octavia Series essentially jumps genre with each new story in the series, although primarily it's a comedy. At time of writing, we have: an action-adventure (with little comedy), comedic slice of life, romance, murder mystery, courtroom drama, and prison break as the different genres in the series. | |

Cloud Atlas is composed of six interwoven stories, each taking place in a different time period and different genres: a 19th century Historical Fiction/sea story, a 1930's drama about a gifted but troubled composer, a 1970's mystery/political thriller, a dark comedy set in a present-day nursing home, a Dystopia in the future and a second Science Fiction story set After the End set further in the future. | |

Stranger Things: Every group of characters (though some of those groups are only a single person) has its own genre. As the show progresses and their stories converge, some of these genres begin to bleed together, especially among the main characters. The kids are in a Dark Fantasy Coming of Age Story. When their friend goes missing, they look for him, only to find a girl their age who seems completely socially unaware. They continue looking for their friend, fighting to keep the adults from getting involved, and dealing with the tension caused by their repeated failures on every front. Joyce is in a Psychological Horror. Her son goes missing, and everyone initially assumes she lost track of him. She begins to believe that her son is talking to her by making lights blink, but they never do it when anyone else is around. Everyone in town—including the sheriff who lost a child of his own—assumes she is losing her mind due to stress. This gets worse when her son's body is discovered, and she still refuses to believe it. Hopper is in a Conspiracy Thriller. He's living in a sleepy little town and a kid goes missing—the first major crime in decades. Then a local commits suicide after having been seen in the company of a kid. When he goes to investigate, the government gives him the runaround. When he investigates the body, he discovers it's a fake, and the government dump him at home surrounded by pills to make him think it was all a dream. His house even gets bugged. In the end, he makes a deal with the government to get them to leave the town alone. Nancy and Jonathan are in a monster-based supernatural Horror, complete with friends getting picked off. They join forces to find the creature, one of them gets a face-to-face with the monster, and they barely survive. They then set a trap in order to finish it off once and for all, in a sequence reminiscent of the climax of Alien. Steve is in a coming-of-age Teen Drama. He's known for one-night stands, but finally finds a nice, intelligent girl that he wants to spend time with. He gets her to come to a party, and they consummate their relationship, only for her to turn distant. He mistakenly believes she is cheating on him, and when he tells his friends, they start slut-shaming her around town. He eventually dumps his friends and starts making up for the things he let them do, then goes to apologize to his girlfriend... only to find that she's actually in the monster movie discussed above. Mrs. Wheeler is in a Soap Opera. She's having a nice and normal life then one day, her son's friend goes missing and her daughter starts acting distant. Any attempts to connect with these family members backfire miserably, and the suspicion only increases when her son's friend's mom starts acting off as well and suddenly throws her out of the house. Then, her daughter reveals that she slept with her boyfriend, and she learns that her son is harboring a dangerous individual underneath her nose. Mr. Wheeler is in a Sitcom. When everyone else storms out of the dinner table, he even looks at the little girl like he's expecting a cute one-liner. The genres the characters find themselves in are shaken up in subsequent seasons. For example, in Season 2 Joyce and Hop participate in the sci-fi horror as they struggle to understand what's going on with Will; Steve and the kids gradually find themselves in the sequel to the monster movie, only unfortunately for them it's now become Aliens instead of "just" Alien; Jonathan and Nancy take over the Government Conspiracy plot-line with exposing Hawkins Lab; and Eleven goes on an epic quest to find out who she truly is and how to control her powers, similar to Luke in The Empire Strikes Back, but which plays out in practice more like an Urban Fantasy reinterpretation of a grim urban Teen Drama based around urban decay in the inner city a la The Warriors. Switched up yet again in the third season. Nancy and Jonathan take on a more horror-ridden storyline once more. Steve and Dustin's group, and then Joyce and Hopper, handle different elements of the conspiracy surrounding Starcourt Mall. Mike, Eleven, Max, Will, and Lucas are thrust into a teen-drama, which begins to take the thriller/horror path after a few episodes. Hopper, Joyce, and Murray remain in the conspiracy track in season 4. The conventional horror is handled by the Hawkins teens, while Eleven is dealing with sci-fi. Meanwhile Will, Mike, Jonathan, and Argyle find themselves in a road trip movie. |

Hazbin Hotel: Not the show itself, which is mostly just a Black Comedy horror musical but rather its soundtrack, which constantly switches style in almost every song. "Inside of Every Demon is a Rainbow" is Pop Punk. "Happy Day in Hell", "You Didn't Know", and "Finale" are Disney-esque musical numbers. "Hell is Forever" is Hard Rock. "Stayed Gone" is swing with a dash of Horrorcore. "Respectless" is Pop Rap reminiscent to Six: The Musical. "Whatever it Takes" is a Power Ballad with the instrumentation of early 2000s Alternative Rock. "ADDICT" and "Poison" are electro dance pop. "Loser, Baby" is jazz rock. "Hell's Greatest Dad" is electro swing. "It Starts With Sorry", "More Than Anything", and "More Than Anything (Reprise)" are acoustic ballads. "Welcome to Heaven" is Baroque Pop. "Out for Love" is Latin dance pop. "Ready for This" is a Les Misérables-style rallying song mixed with Vaudeville. |

Doctor Who pushes the line between this trope and outright Genre-Busting. It did so even more in the era of William Hartnell, who played the First Doctor, before the series had quite settled into its format. In Season 2, with William Hartnell, at a point after the writers had started experimenting but before they settled into a format, you get: a whimsical children's story with a Green Aesop with the cast trying to bring justice to a murder, a rather dark and violent Alien Invasion B-Movie-like story with Daleks set After the End, a claustrophobic Bottle Episode and Deconstruction of the modus operandi the series would eventually have, a goofy but morbid Black Comedy featuring Emperor Nero, an almost dreamlike Planetary Romance featuring four races of Insectoid Aliens with unique psychologies and cultures, a Shakespeare pastiche Costume Drama dealing with religious prejudice with Gratuitous Iambic Pentameter, a tongue-in-cheek story involving Just One Second Out of Sync time travel paradoxes, an extremely silly Dalek serial involving Wacky Wayside Tribe sequences and Dalek slapstick, and a Wham Episode featuring the first appearance of another member of the Doctor's race. Season 3 - a Star Trek: The Original Series-like allegorical story about beautiful evil aliens and hideous good aliens trying to get off a dying planet, a Bottle Episode with no Doctor or companions about a couple of space cadets dying miserably in a Dalek-infested jungle, a Bathos-filled comedy about the Trojan War, a Space Opera featuring Daleks, recurring villains, multiple planets, ancient Egypt and the Family-Unfriendly Death of two companions, a historical deconstructing the companion's trust of the Doctor set amongst an unspeakable real-life atrocity, a whimsical children's horror with evil clowns and dolls, a comedy Musical Episode with cowboys, a Planet of Hats deconstructing the Doctor's modus operandi, and an evil computer trying to take over (then) modern-day London. As showrunner Steven Moffat put it: "Sometimes it's comedy, sometimes thriller, sometimes horror, sometimes children's stories, the silliest stories you've ever seen. Sometimes it's all that in the same episode". In Series Five of the reboot alone we had a thriller, a dystopian rebellion, historical Science Fiction with Churchill, a horror-adventure, a comedy romp with vampires, a Dream Within a Dream mystery, a political intrigue with reptile people, A Very Special Episode about Vincent van Gogh and depression, a comedy, and a Wham Episode. Series 6 had a conspiracy thriller, a madcap pirate romp, a fantasy laden with horrors, a sinister clone saga, a Deconstruction, an assassination plot, a horrifying episode about dolls, a romantic drama, a "What Do They Fear?" Episode, a buddy comedy, and a wedding. Series 7 had the concept that 'every episode was a different genre of blockbuster movie' with movie posters for each story. In 7A, there's: a conspiracy thriller, an Anachronism Stew family sci-fi, a Spaghetti Western, a blockbuster alien invasion, a Noir Episode, and a Christmas Special. In 7B, there's a Hollywood Hacking plot, Planetary Romance with Lovecraftian elements, an old-school Second Doctor-style "Base Under Siege" story with one of Two's most iconic monsters, an old-school Fourth Doctor-style Gothic Horror (set during the time Four was the Doctor in real life), indie sci-fi horror with time paradoxes, and a Victorian Black Comedy. (And some Wham Episodes that don't fit this template.) |

Bugsnax is a helluva thing to describe. It's not for nothing that Yahtzee Croshaw described the game in his Zero Punctuation review as "Fraggle Rock as directed by David Cronenberg". While taking place from a strict first-person perspective (as "The Journalist"), the game manages to be: A Mons Series, thanks to the Bugsnax collecting element. A puzzle game, as you have to come up with creative ways to capture Bugsnax. A first person action-adventure game, in the various sidequests and challenges. A suspense horror game, which develops into Cronenburg-esque Body Horror as you learn more about the island. And finally, relationship counselor training, because of how much of the game's content is intertwined with you figuring out the neuroses and emotional baggage of the deeply damaged cast of NPCs and helping them deal with their issues. And just to top it all off, the game's cast consists of fuzzy Muppet-like monsters eating insect-creatures made of snack foods, making the game come across as a parody of something that would normally be fairly inoffensive. |

Live A Live is essentially a Vignette Game featuring seven relatively short chapters that each take place in wildly different settings, with different genres (and sometimes gameplay) to match: The Prehistoric chapter is a comedy featuring cavemen and irreverant humor. The Imperial China chapter is a classic sendup of martial arts movies and stories. The Twilight of Edo Japan chapter is a historical drama featuring ninjas, a clear Oda Nobunaga Expy, and a potential Stealth-Based Mission. The Wild West chapter is, naturally, a Spaghetti Western. The Present Day chapter is a massive sendup to Fighting Games which were popular at the time of the game's release. The Near Future chapter is an amalgamation of Cyberpunk and Mecha anime tropes. The Distant Future chapter is a science fiction story, though later in the chapter it turns into a Survival Horror game. Completing all seven chapters unlocks the Middle Ages chapter, which harkens to classic Eastern RPGs and High Fantasy. That is, before swerving hard into Dark Fantasy territory in the leadup to its Twist Ending. |

Though Codename: Kids Next Door is at its core a show about groups of kids adventuring or fighting bad guys, nearby every episode is written as an Affectionate Parody of some genre of some media. One episode might be about finding a missing child in a pile of his own clothes and is depicted like a dangerous climb up a snowy mountain (complete with "blizzards" of socks), while another episode might be about homework thieves on the school bus and is depicted like a train robbery in the Old West. | |

The Infinite Loops. Even ignoring the Mega Crossover of the premise, individual snips within the same chapter can range from comedic, to surreal to horrifying to romantic to philosophical. It helps that there are over a dozen authors... per story. | |

Einstürzende Neubauten gradually calmed down from the metallic percussion and noisy intensity of Kollaps in exchange for increasingly quiet conventional styles while maintaining the usage of custom musical instruments built out of found objects. Nonetheless, they still showcase a wide range of textures. | |

Godzilla (1954) and Godzilla Raids Again are essentially black-and-white horror films where the monsters are played entirely for scares and great emphasis is put on the death toll caused by their rampages. | |

While BTS' early work is mainly Hip-Hop and R&B, the range of genres they've covered has gotten wider and wider over the years. So far, they've also done Neo Soul, moombathon, Latin-inspired pop, Electronic Music, ballads, Rock, Electronic Dance Music, Trap Music, Jazz, among others. LOVE YOURSELF: Tear alone has half of the genres previously mentioned and more. The LOVE YOURSELF series (being most noticeable in the compilation album LOVE YOURSELF: Answer) makes use of this versatility to tell a self-contained story of falling in love, becoming a Stepford Smiler in order to retain that love, the relationship collapsing after the mask falls apart, and slowly learning that you need to accept yourself to truly be happy. This musically goes from genres such as electro-pop, EDM and neo-disco (Her) to dark Neo Soul, a mix of Trap and Rock, ballad, and Hip-Hop with a symphonic track (Tear), to a Power Ballad and a mix of gcom and samul nori (the additional final tracks in Answer). BTS member RM defies the notion of being a one-genre-only group; one of the reasons he gave for changing his Stage Name from "Rap Monster" to "RM" is that the old name limited him in the kind of music he wanted to make. He has even said through the lyrics of "Do You" (from his RM mixtape) that genre is "a trap", refusing to stick to one label: |

Rifts was designed to blend as many genres as humanly possible, with new books/settings adding/combining genres not previously covered. Not many other games allow you to play a medieval knight on a robotic horse alongside an alien cyborg cowboy toting a BFG and a wizard with a magical jetpack and literal Lightning Gun. | |

Additionally, depending on how many enemies you kill, the game can shift between a once-more quirky character comedy, to a bittersweet story about a lone child in a harsh world, to Spec Ops: The Line: The RPG, to "Genocide Simulator 2015". | |

Gravity's Rainbow, Historical Fiction overall skips between Science Fiction, war, romance, pornography, family tragedy, horror and slapstick comedy. Pynchon does this a lot. It's even more blatant in Against the Day. | |

Irish band the Horslips practically invented Celtic Rock, fusing traditional themes, rhythms and Irish instruments with hard guitar-edged rock music: they even set a traditional song, An Bratach Ban, to a reggae beat. | |

Housepets!: The comic switches genres often depending on which characters are the subject. Tarot, King or the Celestials will be a Supernatural Soap Opera, the K9PD will be a Police Procedural or Paranormal Investigation, Tarot and Peanut or King and Bailey will be a Romantic Comedy, the forest will contain Woodland Creatures stories, Imaginates will be adaptations of classic fiction, and Spot (Superdog) will be Stylistic Suck comic book parodies. | |

Dinosaur Comics parodies this. After T-Rex comes up with the ultimate disaster movie, he realizes how he can make a nigh-infinite number of sequels: By showing the same series of events from different perspectives, he can shoehorn his story into any genre imaginable. | |

Charmed tended to vary in the tone of its genre depending on what season it was on: Season 1 was very gloomy and similar in tone to The Craft. Season 2 heavily downplays the witchcraft and focuses mainly on the sisters' personal lives. Seasons 3 and 4 are more action-packed, with darker arc-based storylines. These seasons best evoke Supernatural Soap Opera. Seasons 5 and 6 go Lighter and Softer to veer into Heroic Fantasy. Seasons 7 and 8 are something of a mixture of all the previous seasons, being darker in tone than 5 and 6 but still lighter than 3 and 4. |

Cloverfield: The three installments of the franchise are horror, but it jumps from one horror genre to the other. The first movie is a Found Footage deconstruction of Kaiju movies (as in, how awful would it be to be in a city attacked by a giant monster), the second is a Psychological Thriller in which three people are trapped in an underground bunker, and the third is a Sci-Fi Horror in which a space station experience goes haywire. | |
