The Big Garage is a Canadian puppet show aimed at preschoolers, which aired from 1995 to 1996 on Family Channel and Global Television Network in Canada and TLC's "Ready Set Learn" block in the United States.The setting of this show is Taxitown, where the eponymous Big Garage is. Said garage is home to four taxi cabs, London, Yorky, Zigzag, and Mimi, who are always under the watchful eye of Pump, a gas pump who serves as their mentor. Close to the Big Garage is Scrapland, a scrapyard serving as the home of an anthropomorphic trash compactor named Scrap who wants to destroy the taxis. Scrap's helper, a tow truck named Rusty, alternates back and forth between being an enemy of the taxis and a friend. | |

Furry Confusion: A bizarre example occurs in the living tool segments- there's a ruler, a nut, and a bolt, that will, depending on the episode, either be living characters like the other tools or inanimate props for said tools to interact with. | |

Bad Boss | |
| The Big Garage / int_3cb1d38d | comment |
Pump and Scrap. Both are stationary objects that give jobs to vehicle characters (the taxis and Rusty, respectively) in distinct areas of Taxitown (The Big Garage and Scrapland). The difference is that Pump is a benevolent mentor that represents the taxis' livelihoods as their gas provider, and Scrap is an alienating Bad Boss that represents the taxis' expiration dates as a trash compactor. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: In the episode "An Eensy Weensy Lie", London lies about having a flat tire to enter Scrapland and find a taxi sign to give Rusty. Scrap, who believes the lie, asks for help from the other taxis to aid London despite usually not liking them. | |

Tear-Apart Tug-of-War: In the tool segment of “Share And Share Alike�, two of the Spanners do this with a ruler (not the Ruler, fortunately for her; this one is inanimate.) The narrator ends up taking the ruler’s broken pieces, repairing them via an Offscreen Reality Warp, and giving the ruler back to the Spanners once they promise to share. | |

Tertiary Sexual Characteristics: Zigzag and Stop are easily identifiable as girls. The former is purple, has visible lips, and wears a "bow", while the latter has eyelashes. However, this trope is averted with Mimi and Flash. In the tool segments, the Saw and the Ruler both have very visible eyelashes to mark them as female; the ruler is also bright pink. | |

Last-Second Photo Failure: The living tool segment of “The Latest Style� has the Spanners, Oil Can, and Saw repeatedly invoke this on the hapless narrator, who only wants a nice picture of them. After several ruined attempts, the narrator gives up… and realizes that she enjoys looking at the goofy pictures more than she would’ve enjoyed looking at a picture of the tools posing nicely. | |

Green and Mean: Subverted with Rusty. He's green and technically an antagonist by association, but he's too meek to actually pose a threat, even implying quite a few times that he prefers hanging out at the Big Garage over staying at Scrapland. He considers Pump and the taxis his friends, and the feeling is mutual. | |

Saw a Woman in Half: In the living tools’ segment of “You Better Believe It�, the Saw’s magic act naturally includes doing this, with the Ruler as the victi- erm, participant. Ruler does end up getting literally cut in half, and Saw’s attempt to make her whole again fails- fortunately for Ruler, her being an Animate Inanimate Object means that Who Needs Their Whole Body? is firmly in effect here, and she’s back to normal in the next episode. | |

Dramatic Irony: In "Welcome to the Big Garage", the other taxis watch for Mimi and are convinced that they'll recognize her the moment they see her.

The Reliable One: London is described as such a few times, most notably when his personality changes in "Lickety-Split." | |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business | |
| The Big Garage / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: In "An Eensy Weensy Lie", Scrap not only asks the other taxis to help London, but he also doesn't mind London singing in his presence as he waits for them, despite his hatred of singing. Lampshaded by Yorky. | |

A Dog Named "Dog": A gas pump named Pump. A stop sign named Stop. A set of tools (Spanners, Hammer, Saw, Oil Can, Ruler, Nuts & Bolts) named after what they are. | |

No Song for the Wicked: Scrap is the only character who doesn't get a song number. Justified as he hates singing. | |

| The Big Garage / int_fa1d0606 | comment |
Interactive Narrator: The animated tool segments contain a voiceover who can not only speak to the tools but somehow physically interact with them (such as taking photos of them or repairing a ruler two of the Spanners broke) as well. | |

Comically Missing the Point | |
| The Big Garage / int_fbd285b7 | comment |
Comically Missing the Point: In the episode "Welcome to the Big Garage", Rusty tries to teach Scrap how to make friends, and he pretends to be a stranger so that Scrap can have someone to practice with. After Rusty tells him that saying "Go away, I'm busy!" in a mean tone is not a good way to make friends, Scrap proceeds to try again... by saying "Go away, I'm busy!" in a nice tone. | |
