| Grotesco | comment |
Grotesco is a group of Swedish comedians, with their own television series of the same name. Famous for the song "Bögarnas Fel" (The Gay Men's Fault,) which was included not only in their series but also in the TV show Allsång På Skansen ("Singalong at Skansen"). Lots of clips from the series can be found on YouTube.Examples are split among individual songs/clips that have at least four tropes. Examples from songs/clips that don't yet meet that requirement go into their own generic category at the bottom. | |

As the Good Book Says... | |
| Grotesco / int_2439b588 | comment |
As the Good Book Says...: The pastor doesn't know what line, verse, chapter or part of The Bible it is that says that everything is the gays' fault, but he's sure that it's in there somewhere. | |

The debate video uses All Gays Are Pedophiles / Pedophile Priest, with the pastor being a little bit too frienly to a young boy. | |

Captain Ersatz | |
| Grotesco / int_25b5600 | comment |
Captain Ersatz: The episode "The Trial" features fictional actors called Mactew Maconahuloiduhewylewydu & Gene Hackencrack, blatant parodies of Matthew McConaughey and Gene Hackman. There is also an elderly wise southern man who is not named but obvious parody of Sam Elliott. The aliens mentioned above is a parody of the cast of Star Trek The Originalseries. | |

Evil Is One Big, Happy Family | |
| Grotesco / int_38317f87 | comment |
Evil Is One Big, Happy Family: Religious fundamentalists of various faiths, singing together in unison about how none of them are to blame for the fact that they keep murdering each other and others in the name of religion. Nope, it's all the gay men's fault. They don't seem to like atheists though. Unsurprisingly, they blame the gays for their existance. | |

Conspiracy Theorist: One episode claims that Adolf Hitler never existed as an individual person, he was simply the supervillain alter ego of the previous king of Sweden. And thus, the current king is the son of the real Adolf Hitler. | |

Sudden Downer Ending | |
| Grotesco / int_8124e7a6 | comment |
Sudden Downer Ending: Played for laughs. Despite the New York lawyer being able to prove the black man's innocence and the corruption of the prosecutor the judge tells him that in the South they just can't let a black man go and then bluntly orders the deputies to "fry him". Cue Seinfeld-music. | |

| Grotesco / int_9e5369d1 | comment |
Orphaned Setup: The "Tord Greider"-skit in "Gone" is lifted out of the pilot episode "Grotesco Royale", but you would not realize it because how funny it is on it's own. In the pilot, Tord and the Mad Scientist reappears at the end for the twist ending were it is revealed that all the characters are creations of the Mad Scientist in a bid to create the best comedy show Sweden has ever seen which the protagonist realizes and starts to laugh as a maniac. | |

Happiness Is Mandatory: Pretty much every clip ends with a message that this humor is national and approved by the government of Sweden, implying that it is your duty as a citizen to laugh at it. This is a jab at the fact that the channel that ran the series is SVT, Sweden's tax funded tv-channel. | |

Race Lift: In the stage version recreates "The Trial", but the accused is a poor white (mentally handicapped) man instead. Likely to avoid a controversy about racism and it would be financially unsound to hire a black actor for just one skit when the cast is already large as it is. | |
