In an alternate 1980s where the nation stumbles towards dystopia, join the National Nightly News team as they document the latest political scandals, the rise of a radical government, and which celebrity has for some reason written a book about it all.Within the news team, you play as the Featureless Protagonist broadcaster named Alex Winston who controls the framing and editing of the content. Even though you did not want this job, it seems easy enough … that is, until the country elects a new government that seems intent on censoring/manipulating the populace using your broadcast.Do you go along with it and reap the rewards to keep your family afloat, or do you show the truth and face the consequences?Utilizing FMV, the gameplay is very similar to Papers, Please, in that you are running a broadcast with very strict rules and regulations that you must follow, or else your ratings (and subsequently your salary) will plummet. This includes censoring swear words, cutting to different shots, and picking the right ads to play during commercial breaks by manipulating the broadcast console in real time.The first episode was released on Steam on January 30, 2020, followed by Episode 2 on January 28, 2021. With the COVID-19 Pandemic having an impact on game development, two bonus levels were released: the Lockdown level, released on June 25, 2020; and the Telethon level, released on September 25, with a Quality of Life patch following on October 21. The "Play Your Way" Update was released on June 3, 2021. The full game, including the third and final episode, was released on January 25, 2022.Three DLC expansions have been announced for the game. "Live & Spooky", which sees National Nightly News reporter Patrick Bannon exploring an abandoned television studio built by his father, was announced in January of 2023 and released on March 23rd. "Bits Of Your Life", which sets out to explore the backstory of Peter Clement, was announced shortly after and released on November 14th. Finally, "The Timeloop", which sees Jeremy and Megan take part in an Advance-approved televised science experiment, is scheduled to release sometime in 2024. A season pass, released on February 17, 2023, will grant access to all the aforementioned DLC as they are released.Additional releases of the game for PlayStation and Xbox consoles, as well as a VR edition for SteamVR and the Oculus Quest, were released alongside Live & Spooky on March 23rd, 2023.

In between the arguments, they have a number of softer moments early on - like Jeremy's subtle disappointment when Jenny says she's not coming for a drink because she has a date, and Jenny's tendency to lean in close and put her arm around the back of Jeremy's chair while talking to him or watching a broadcast with him.

No Celebrities Were Harmed: Alan James, Conspiracy Theorist, is clearly heavily inspired by Alex Jones. Chef Jordan Rankly is a parody of Gordon Ramsay. Steve Saxon ends up becoming an award-winning actor called "the sexiest man alive", clearly based on Benedict Cumberbatch.

Trailers Always Spoil
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_143939c1
comment
Trailers Always Spoil: A rare in-universe example. At the beginning of the Day 153 level, Boseman encourages you to play Advance's PSA during the second ad break. The PSA is about the new Transition Centres. But right after the second ad break, is the prime ministers' interview in which they formally announce the Transition Centres. So if you follow Boseman's advice, you spoil the interview for the viewers (although this has no in-game effect).

Unexpected Gameplay Change
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_1467a30c
comment
Unexpected Gameplay Change: "Live & Spooky" involves trying to uncover the mystery surrounding Graham Bannon's failed show by finding three reels, all of which involve guiding the correct guests into the right areas. "Bits Of Your Life" starts off as a straightforward talk show where each guest is called automatically via a machine. After playing through the initial path, Dave decides to sabotage the machine, opening up five new routes and ten secret scenarios.

 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The Lockdown segment is an obvious analog of the lockdowns resulting from the COVID-19 Pandemic, but Alan James takes it further with his ramblings in this segment, which mirror actual COVID denial rhetoric in the context of an invasion by Snugglehugs. He brings up, for instance, the fact that 3,000 people are killed every year by "regular toys", and that he's never actually seen any of the Snugglehugs that are menacing the populace with his own eyes.

Artistic License – Biology: In the Telethon level, Graham says that Suzie Button is suffering from a life-threatening condition, which he has trouble trying to pronounce as "pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism". According to science, however, pseudo-PHP is not life-threatening, but quality of life can be affected in those with severe ectopic ossification.

comment
Title Drop: Footage that the audience isn't supposed to see is marked with a red light on your display. If the player shows too much of this footage, the Game Over screen will tell you, "You lost the audience because you showed too much footage that was not for broadcast." During The Lockdown, one of the tapes Alex can play during the ad breaks is an employee training video. In one version of it, Boseman states at the beginning, "This video is for internal use only, and is not for broadcast." Jeremy delivers one on Day 296, after the player refuses to play the Disrupt tape.

Gone Horribly Wrong

comment
Gone Horribly Wrong: The Golden Ending route reveals that Advance had experimented with the creation of sterilising crops as a form of opt-out contraception in a misguided attempt to curtail an overpopulation crisis. In one of the finales, however, it is revealed that this botched test wound up causing the exact opposite problem: creating a virus that poisoned the nation's food and resulted in an underpopulation crisis, such that birthrates are reported alongside the weather and in one of the epilogues it is reported that incentives are given to have more children.

Order Versus Chaos
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_1a237409
comment
Order Versus Chaos: Disrupt sells itself on bringing back freedom even if it's chaotic, vs Advance and its very well-ordered national structure. Both Order and Chaos are Dangerous: In the end, Advance goes fully Dictatorial while Disrupt goes full Corporate. To get a good ending, you either have to (A) expose both sides of their atrocities simultaneously, inciting enough outrage to create a third party and ensure the beginning of true democracy for a unified continent, or (B) destroy Disrupt and then peacefully ruin Julia's career by exposing her acts of mass-genocide, reforming Advance and turning it into a true beacon of progressive politics.

Multiple Endings
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77
comment
Multiple Endings There are 14 of them in the form of Epilogue tapes depending on your actions at work.* Which ending you get ultimately boils down to four factors: whether or not Jeremy survives Day 296, whether or not Alan James survives Day 912, whether or not you decide to play the leaked tape during the finale, and whether public opinion favors Advance or Disrupt (or, in one case, neither). Some of them are bittersweet, and most of them are downers, but one of them could be the best (and only) Golden Ending you'll get. Depending on your choices during the Headlines segments, each of the game's three primary side-stories (Sophia Rymmington, Johnny Hamsleeves, and the Dante's Taint crew) can end in over a dozen different ways, with many having multiple paths towards getting them. "The Lockdown" can end in eight different ways, depending on certain actions you took earlier in the game.* Specifically these three: whether or not you gave Chris your passport, whether or not you let Suzie go on vacation, and how you handled Charlie staying out late at the party. "Live & Spooky" has five endings depending on who was sent to the vault in part 2 and if the two reels were restored, with the Golden Ending being a confrontation between Holly and Patrick. "Bits Of Your Life" has ten unique endings based on the order of guests chosen.

Poor Communication Kills
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_1c445e86
comment
Day 296 is full of this. There's a whole Poor Communication Kills plot between Jeremy and Jenny, though the player won't get to see most of it until they watch the rushes. Jeremy, pissed about being relegated to covering fluff stories, lashes out at Jenny, asking why she's even here when it was supposed to be her day off. Absolutely furious, Jenny storms off, only returning later in the segment to berate him. But in Segment 2, it turns out that the reason Jeremy didn't want Jenny to come in to work that day wasn't because he didn't like her, but because he planned to quit that night - it is implied he specifically picked that night to give his speech and show the Disrupt tape because Jenny (and Megan) wouldn't have to be in the studio to deal with the fallout. If Alex plays the tape, Jenny says "God, I love you Jeremy, but..." while trying to talk him down, though it's unclear whether it's platonic or romantic. And during his final speech, Jeremy mentions that he wanted to try having a relationship, having never tried it before. And if Alex didn't play the tape, Jenny admits that the only reason she came into work on her day off was because she wanted to see Jeremy.

Anachronism Stew: The game is set between 1984 and 1991 and is fairly accurate, though some elements are out-of-place. One of the songs shown in the "Songs of the New Regime" advert in The Sterility, "Unburden Me", sounds more like a 2000s-era pop song than the other music featured. Many of the car models seen don't match the time period. One scenario shows a 1999 Ford Crown Victoria, and the "Check Your Prostate" commercial shows a 2011 Audi TT. The "Whities" commercial in The Telethon, set in 1954, has Graham driving a Triumph Herald 13/60, which wasn't made until 1967.

Funny Background Event: During the Lockdown level, while Megan Wolfe is interviewing Katie Brightman and Alan James, Jeremy Donaldson is visible on the unused camera feed making himself a sandwich. Combined with One Dialogue, Two Conversations: In Day 296, when Jeremy is holding everyone at gunpoint, he tells you to "look to your right"; although he's telling you to do so, if you stay focused on the screens, Andy the CCO will get confused and think that Jeremy is talking about him before looking to his right, as if it's supposed to mean something for him. The credits from the previous show at the start of the game are full of silly entries.

The ringleaders of Disrupt, who are some of the (former) rulers of the Nation's neighbors and the former Prime Minister before Advance's takeover. They act like Small Name, Big Ego comic reliefs, but they're secretly a cabal of multi-billionaires who enjoy torturing the masses and earning money through the drug and slave trades. They have disdain for their spokesman Alan James and plan to send the whole continent back a few ages.

They act like Small Name, Big Ego comic reliefs, but they're secretly a cabal of multi-billionaires who enjoy torturing the masses and earning money through the drug and slave trades. They have disdain for their spokesman Alan James and plan to send the whole continent back a few ages.

The Bad Guys Win: In the "Wacky Fun" ending, Alan successfully kills all of the news team during his suicide bombing, allowing Disrupt to come to power. The National Nightly News is replaced by an inane kids show featuring a miserable Geoff Algebra. In the "A Renewed Mandate" ending, the cause of the Sterility Plague is never revealed, and Julia is re-elected into power. Downplayed in the "Inevitable Advancement" and "All Fall Down" endings. Julia remains in power and replaces Megan as Channel One's main host, but she's visibly cracking under the pressure of a worsening underpopulation crisis or a civil war, respectively.

comment
Older Than They Look: Despite having a cute face with '60s Hair and the high-pitched voice of an adolescent boy (and Megan calling him "little" at one time), Jeremy is simply no less than 40-41 years old (as inscribed on his gravestone if you let him die on national television in Day 296). Provided that you help him survive the heatwave, he can turn 47 by the end of 1991 and still look a bit youthful aside from the stubble on his chin. Dale from Heatrash looks like the youngest member of the band, but claims to have a growth disorder, and is actually 23. The other band members jokingly say he's actually 58. A production assistant in the Finale, Colin, claims to be 44, much to Megan's surprise.

comment
Borrowed Catchphrase: At the end of Day 232: The Silence, when Jeremy is growing troubled and disturbed over Advance and their plan after an interview with Geoff Algebra, Megan has to end the National Nightly News with his Signing-Off Catchphrase, "Have a peaceful night." In Path B ( Jeremy is alive and Alan is dead) of the finale: If Alex doesn't play the unknown footage, Julia closes out the show calmly, commenting that Jeremy, who she just had violently arrested, will go through "a long and arduous process of Betterment," and that she will be the new host of The Nightly Show. To add insult to injury, she steals his Signing Off Catchphrase as well, "Have a peaceful night." If Alex does play the unknown footage, Julia, having just been exposed for ordering the murder of co-Prime Minister Peter Clement, has a Villainous Breakdown as Megan and the rest of the Channel One crew are arrested, leaving her alone in the studio to close out the show. She ends with a variation of Megan's Signing Off Catchphrase "Let's make tomorrow better," changed to a desperate, tearful "I will make tomorrow better," In Path D (both Jeremy and Alan are alive) of the finale, if Alex doesn't play the unknown footage, Jeremy starts to say his usual Signing Off Catchphrase, before switching to Megan's, "Let's make tomorrow better," perhaps to signal that he's moving on from the news and that he considers Megan a worthy successor.

In one outcome of Day 2602: The Finale, the third segment gives a subtle hint that Jeremy returns, just before he unmasks himself. Pay close attention to the three people in balaclavas that enter with Alan. One of them isn't holding a gun.

Quote Mine: Disrupt asks you to weaponize this during Day 912, having you censor massive chunks of an interview with The Novaries; the parts left to be aired form messages telling resistance members where to go during their protests. If you don't solve the mystery in "Live & Spooky", the previous two reels will play, but cut to tell Alex to look in the production room (if Part 1 didn't end in the costume room), or mock them for trusting Graham (if Patrick wasn't sent to the projection room).

Stylistic Suck: The Medicated, the Laurence Blunderclatch movie from which we see a clip, is a cheesy apocalyptic thriller with a love plot tacked on. Five years later, we see the same clip after the film is rebranded into The Automated, which has been done via thoroughly terrible redub. Hey! Friendship!, the play written by and starring a group of sixth form students and directed by the maths teacher. Any scene with Geoff Algebra can be assumed to be this. He outright admits that most of the stuff he makes is garbage he creates for the massive payouts Advance gives him. Li'l C's song, "These Babies Gonna Bring You Home", features a wonky synth line and is laden with Advance propaganda in the form of lyrical innuendos. Live & Spooky is a hammy paranormal show and requires Alex's assistance in adding SFX to guide Wayne and Patrick to the rooms. Subverted when the cast starts investigating the building, where Marie's spirit begins terrorizing the crew.

Worst News Judgment Ever: The National Nightly News starts off as a straightforward news channel. As the story progresses, they gradually start ignoring current events, such as the country being on the brink of war, while making lighter topics and human-interest stories their top priority, to Jeremy's frustration. When Jeremy learns that Advance are interfering with the news, he holds the studio hostage and attempts to report on serious topics before security storms the studio. After the war, the NNN slowly moves away from covering the news before being rebranded as a late-night talk show.

The Wham Episode is kicked off by him getting fed up with Advance's increasingly heavy-handed control of the media turning the National Nightly News into a vapid gossip show instead of informing the populace.

 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_4b0a723c
comment
Think of the Censors!: The player themself has to appease the censors, using Sound Effect Bleeps to keep the show family friendly, so that they don't lose their job. Many characters are aware of this. Megan's foster daughter, Stacey, swears frequently while on air. When the ads run, Megan asks her to stop, for Alex's sake: Other characters defy this, by intentionally swearing while live in an attempt to hurt the show's ratings, or even mess with Alex directly. For example, Laurence Blunderclatch very deliberately swears twice on air in order to show his displeasure at being asked about politics. And in one version of The Noticeboard's finale, Tommy Harris inserts random swear words into his dialogue, in order to get back at Alex for booing him.

Getting Crap Past the Radar
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_4b86a724
comment
Getting Crap Past the Radar: In-Universe: In Day 232: The Silence, we get Prime Minister Ivan Vodovich, who makes comments about Teeny Weenies. Somehow the word "penis" said by him (and sometimes by Prime Minister Bjerg) is still intact on a family-friendly broadcast you're trying to keep G... or at least PG, but not his other spoken profanities. Also In-Universe when people sometimes say "bloody" (like in other days) and "crap" (like in the Hey! Friendship! performance), which are intact on modern-day (at the time of The '80s) television, but not in The '50s Telethon.

Creator Killer: This can happen In-Universe depending on how a person is portrayed during the broadcast. During Day 1, Laurence Blunderclatch gets into an altercation while footage of his newest movie is being played. Choosing to air that over the footage causes his movie to bomb at the box office and he ends up being relegated to playing a talking clock. During the first episode of The Noticeboard, its possible to boo just Tommy Harris. This causes him to turn up to the final episode inebriated, eventually culminating in a brawl between him and Geoff. Alternatively, you can boo Geoff instead, angering him to the point Tommy and Philippa have to cart him off the set.

On the Black side of Disrupt: A lot of Disrupt's supporters seen in-game seem to care less about personal freedoms and more about recreating the wealth and social disparity of the old regime, which is often used by Advance propaganda to discredit them. Their ideology is less about regaining lost civil freedoms as it is more about 'bootstrap' right-wing libertarian ideology fighting against a 'nanny state'. And it turns out, the secret leaders of Disrupt, an oligarchy of Social Darwinist old-country political leaders and rich corporates who are no less authoritarian than Advance. They seek to reinstate democracy...so they can take it over and destroy the equality created by Advance and regain their social status. Disrupt has also been funded, unbeknownst to the members, through child sex trafficking and drug dealing which the leaders openly gloat and revel in. Unlike the Advance leadership, no effort is made to humanize Disrupt's secret leaders or motivate their actions; they're JUST evil.

BlackAndGreyMorality
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_588d766f
comment
Black-and-Grey Morality: The overall conflict between Advance and Disrupt is this, done in an interesting way that, depending on the period, either can fit in either category: On the Grey side of Advance: Their initial policies genuinely raise the living standards for people at the cost of the historically wealthy. The Transition Centers are opt-in, so while the idea of euthanasia for the elderly and weak is a very grey argument, it's never enforced through the government. Their ideological enforcement of equality, for better or for worse, is for the most part genuine. On the Black side of Advance: They're more than willing to engage in extreme authoritarianism as they slowly consolidate power, in a manner that is not too dissimilar to real-life communist parties, such as silencing the press and taking out potentially dangerous intellectuals. After Day 371 They end the war by blowing up four cities with nuclear bombs and hitting casualties in the millions, and annex their neighbouring of nations through threat of total annihilation, promising to 'awaken' them, and become even more authoritarian. They also sterilize the Nation's population through the food, though this is less out of genuine malice than complete accidental incompetency, as like the Transition centers they were meant to be opt-in; though rather than tell the truth, they blamed the low fertility rates on nuclear fallout. Though well-intentioned, Advance ultimately causes more harm than good to the world. On the Grey side of Disrupt: Despite their violent methods, Disrupt seems to be the only ones fighting against Advance's increasing political hold while also being the more sympathetic underdogs. Even after Alan James is seen to be the spokesman of Disrupt, he has changed from a cooky right-wing conspiracy theorist to a (seemingly) heroic revolutionary. On the Black side of Disrupt: A lot of Disrupt's supporters seen in-game seem to care less about personal freedoms and more about recreating the wealth and social disparity of the old regime, which is often used by Advance propaganda to discredit them. Their ideology is less about regaining lost civil freedoms as it is more about 'bootstrap' right-wing libertarian ideology fighting against a 'nanny state'. And it turns out, the secret leaders of Disrupt, an oligarchy of Social Darwinist old-country political leaders and rich corporates who are no less authoritarian than Advance.

Meaningful Background Event
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_5b565147
comment
Meaningful Background Event: There's a lot going on throughout Episode 2. For example, in Day 296, Jeremy is becoming increasingly agitated about the heat and about Advance's plans and their blockade to Jenny, and drinking a lot of water and getting his makeup applied repeatedly isn't helping him. At one time he even takes off his black tuxedo suit, revealing what may be feared later as the White Shirt of Death. Since there's no sound going on in Camera 1, you have to go to the Rushes Room to hear what's going on, as described in this video. If the first part of "Live & Spooky" is ended in the costume room, the opening rushes show Patrick angrily asking where the restored reel footage came from. This hints that Patrick knows more than he's letting on about Graham's cursed production.

Dream Sequence

comment
During the Lockdown episode if you pay attention to the segment with Katie & Alan being interviewed it becomes obvious that they're in the same room. Alan gets up and leaves the interview but as he does so he walks directly into Katie's camera shot. There's not a lot of reasons why they would be in the same house during a lockdown and being together is one of them. It is a Dream Sequence, so perhaps represents some internalized view of their being some Slap-Slap-Kiss sexual tension in the eyes of the director.

Drone of Dread

comment
Drone of Dread: In the third part of Day 296, during the time Jeremy is talking to Andy and Jenny, a low-pitched infrasound drone is faintly heard, but over time, it grows louder and louder, indicating that security is coming for Jeremy. It's pretty kinda bad if the Disrupt ad tape is not played, but it borders on Nightmare Fuel if Alex did play the tape. What's even more unsettling is that in the latter scenario, when Jeremy dismisses Jenny and Andy on realizing that security is coming for him, he makes a final mano-a-mano broadcast with all cameras focused on him as the drone grows louder and louder, eventually reaching its climax as he puts the gun up close toward his head and, barring Jenny's pleas to cut to the ads, caps off his Final Speech with his usual Signing-Off Catchphrase before ending his own life with a Pretty Little Headshot to the temple.

Dying Moment of Awesome: In Day 296, if you don't cut to the ads after playing the Disrupt tape, Jeremy, still holding a pistol in his hand, feels a bit depressed that he doesn't want to work for the news under Advance anymore; he pulls the pistol up a few inches close to his head, apologizing to the newscast for letting them down, then says these last words before putting the pistol an inch closer to his head, shuts his eyes in a brave sense of calm, and pulls the trigger.

Jerkass Has a Point: Disrupt may be led by obnoxious, out-of-touch millionaires who don't care why their rivals are really bad, but they are still combatting a rogue state of Dirty Commie nuclear terrorists who poison their own people. Equally, while the things Advance has to say about Disrupt are blatant propaganda, they're not wrong when they claim the group is more or less a front for the wealthy to get back into power, their messaging that the group would "replace betterment with a noose" is much more hard hitting in one of the finale sequences, where Disrupt's benefactors discuss a mass purge of their opponents. Peter Clement in Day ???: The Lockdown reads out letters from citizens who are upset at having to stay inside because they want to go out to hairdressers, or similarly trivial things. He - fairly understandably - becomes increasingly agitated at the fact that these questions are being asked, or that people are flouting the rules of the lockdown i.e. "stay inside", particularly given the fact that, in the episode, going outside will get you nearly-instantly brutally murdered by bloodthirsty rampaging killer toys.

The Reveal: The ending of the Telethon level reveals that the nameless stagehand who saves the show is actually future co-leader of Advance, Peter Clement. In the Disrupt video, the speaker takes off his hood to reveal that he's Alan James. In "Live and Spooky", it's revealed that not only was Graham the culprit behind the disasters plaguing the production of Dying Is Another Man's Job, but it was actually Marie that conceived the show. Marie was either pushed or fell to her death, which Graham made look like a suicide after having shifted blame onto her.

Tensions grew between Marie and Graham after Brent's accident. He would try to bribe her into silence when she complained about her budget cuts and ignored advice, which she refused to accept. Shortly after, a fire broke out in the projector room that destroyed the show's original scripts and reels. No cause for the fire was discovered, but it was widely believed to be an accident by Marie, who supposedly hung herself in the vault shortly afterwards. In reality, Graham ordered all of the material that proved Marie created the show and doused them in gasoline, before locking the room so no one could access it.

These typically tie into the challenge you completed to get them in some way, such as the severed cable that caused the increased interference in "Inter-fearful", or a glass of Dave's piss as a memento of the prank war that led to "Switcheroo".

Combined with One Dialogue, Two Conversations: In Day 296, when Jeremy is holding everyone at gunpoint, he tells you to "look to your right"; although he's telling you to do so, if you stay focused on the screens, Andy the CCO will get confused and think that Jeremy is talking about him before looking to his right, as if it's supposed to mean something for him.

Network Decay: An In-Universe example ties into the plot. The National Nightly News starts off as a genuine news channel without any agenda. When Advance come into power, it starts reporting less on meaningful news and more on fluff and human-interest stories. When Jeremy learns that Advance are behind it, it leads to him taking the studio hostage and asking Alex to play a tape from Disrupt for some balance, potentially being killed or arrested. When Channel One is forced into public ownership, its fully subjected to government censorship before devolving into a cheesy talk show by the finale. In the endings, its either restored to a news channel or dissolves completely.

The Horseshoe Effect: Despite being on the complete opposite end of the political spectrum, by the end of the game Disrupt have begun to adopt many of the same tactics as Advance, asking you to censor dissenting voices for them (only marked by an orange wavelength instead of a blue one) and refusing to disclose their true motives.

Both Order and Chaos are Dangerous: In the end, Advance goes fully Dictatorial while Disrupt goes full Corporate. To get a good ending, you either have to (A) expose both sides of their atrocities simultaneously, inciting enough outrage to create a third party and ensure the beginning of true democracy for a unified continent, or (B) destroy Disrupt and then peacefully ruin Julia's career by exposing her acts of mass-genocide, reforming Advance and turning it into a true beacon of progressive politics.

The Cuckoolander Was Right: Alan James' introduction has him ranting against the government, claiming that they're going to cause millions of deaths, alongside hyperbolic claims about Advance's initiatives. Day 371 proves many of his claims right. Played with, however, in that absolutely nothing says he's right about anything else, and in fact it turns out he's in the back pocket of a bunch of bitter Upper Class Twits who hate the fact Advance's tax policies hit them hard.

Belligerent Sexual Tension
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_75d6bf40
comment
Starting from the very first scene of the game, they're often arguing, trading sharp, snarky remarks that can come across as Belligerent Sexual Tension or Like an Old Married Couple. Despite this, their banter is ultimately lighthearted - it's rare for one to take actual offense to the other's comments. In fact, their long working relationship makes the arguing seem almost affectionate.

Curse Cut Short: In Day 296, you can put this trope into play, thanks to the Live but Delayed nature of the broadcast feed. Toward the end of the second act of the National Nightly News, Jeremy, holding the newscast at gunpoint, tells Alex to "Play the fucking tape," but look closely at the live feed and the timer. At the moment he says "fucking" under the two-second mark, that's your cue to cut to a commercial break at the right timing once the timer reaches zero at the moment he's about to say the word at broadcast, enabling a Mood Whiplash.

During the first episode of The Noticeboard, its possible to boo just Tommy Harris.

Wham Episode: Day 296. In the middle of an interview, Jeremy holds the news studio hostage and publicly berates Advance. After requesting the player to play a tape from Disrupt, he either shoots himself on air, is gunned down by security, or is arrested. Regardless, he becomes a martyr for the resistance. Day 371. Advance detonate nukes in 4 foreign cities, and threaten to detonate more unless the world surrenders. Day 912. Disrupt gets much more harsh and brutal in its rebellion against Advance, interrupting the opening of the Peter Clement memorial garden with a violent attack and (if the player supports their uprising) managing to knock down the entire broadcast tower by blowing the base of it up.

Discretion Shot: Sometimes can be enforced by the player. Naked protestors appear during the sportsboard segment, and you have to cut the footage so they don't show up on the news. But not an example in the same sportsboard segment when in certain moments the female player moves in a way that her skirt lifts up, exposing her butt. When Jeremy takes the studio hostage, you have the option to cut to the ads before he kills himself or gets gunned down on live television. Interestingly, if you do this, Jeremy gets arrested rather than killed.

Take a Third Option: The entire point of the game's Golden Ending. Jeremy returns with Disrupt to once again take the studio hostage while live on air. He sits Julia and Alan down to talk fairly about the flaws of both Advance and Disrupt and lays the sins of both sides bare for the nation to see. Advance not only created euthanasia centers with the Transition Centers, caused a continent-wide war, and participated in nuclear terrorism, but is also responsible for the sudden increase in citizen impotence as they carried out a botched test which resulted in crops and livestock being infected with a contraceptive bacteria and they blamed the sterility crisis on the radiation from the nukes in order to save face. If Alex chooses to play the tape Jeremy provided then it is revealed that Disrupt isn't innocent either. On top of bombings, terrorism, and murder it's revealed that the leadership of Disrupt are the wealthy people that were the targets of Advance's Wealth and Assets Act who, despite the act taking away a significant part of their resources, were still wealthy with assets Advance didn't know about or couldn't touch, including the drug trade and child sex slave markets. This all results in turning public opinion on both parties and forming the Accord party, a party with more centrist and less authoritarian ideals, which sweeps both of them on election day and ushers the nation (and its neighbors) into a hopefully brighter future.

If Alex does play the unknown footage, Julia, having just been exposed for ordering the murder of co-Prime Minister Peter Clement, has a Villainous Breakdown as Megan and the rest of the Channel One crew are arrested, leaving her alone in the studio to close out the show. She ends with a variation of Megan's Signing Off Catchphrase "Let's make tomorrow better," changed to a desperate, tearful "I will make tomorrow better,"

Better to Die than Be Killed: If you played the Disrupt tape in Day 296: The Heatwave, when Jenny warns Jeremy that security are coming in to either arrest or kill him, he hears the pounding of the locked doors and a Drone of Dread growing louder and louder. Realizing this, he knows that it will be his final broadcast, so he dismisses her and Andy and, because he's "nearly done", tells all the cameramen to focus on him, leading to his "Final Speech" monologue that consists of rattling off the numerous reasons Advance sucks, then telling the entire newsroom that he used to love the news, but that the current news isn't the news anymore, and apologizing to them for letting them down, as he is standing up for his beliefs and willing to make some sort of Heroic Sacrifice or suicide for the cause of Disrupt. As he is holding the pistol aloft and inching it closer to his head, he slowly recites his outro and, barring Jenny's pleas to cut to the ads, caps off his speech with his usual Signing-Off Catchphrase before ending it all with a Pretty Little Headshot to his right temple.

Unwitting Instigator of Doom
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_99ddfcec
comment
Unwitting Instigator of Doom: It's a pretty subtle one, especially since you have to go back and watch the Rushes to see it properly, but during the first segment of Day 296, as Jeremy continues to vent his frustration with the degradation of the National Nightly News' content during Patrick Bannon's interview, Jenny mentions that she's tried pitching better stories, but they keep getting rejected. Jeremy initially assumes that Boseman is the culprit, but then Jenny lets it slip that the rejections are actually coming from even higher up the chain of command. While it's not explicitly spelled out, it's reasonable to assume that this is what leads Jeremy to put two and two together and figure out that Advance are the ones responsible for the direction the NNN has taken. This turns out to be the primary contributing factor to Jeremy reaching his Rage Breaking Point halfway through the second segment and taking the studio hostage.

Stealing the Credit: The underlying plot of the "Live & Spooky" DLC.

Dirty Communists: Advance slowly goes from a slightly kooky far-left party into this, as they become more brutal and oppressive. Played with, however, in that it's explicit that Villain Has a Point - they were also the first to notice an oncoming environmental crisis, and do everything in their power to stop it, while Disrupt is secretly backed by people who are more upset that Advance took power away from them than their authoritarian instincts.

Unfortunately for Jill, Advance may have caught on, as she's escorted out of the studio by security right after the program ends.

There's a lot going on throughout Episode 2. For example, in Day 296, Jeremy is becoming increasingly agitated about the heat and about Advance's plans and their blockade to Jenny, and drinking a lot of water and getting his makeup applied repeatedly isn't helping him. At one time he even takes off his black tuxedo suit, revealing what may be feared later as the White Shirt of Death. Since there's no sound going on in Camera 1, you have to go to the Rushes Room to hear what's going on, as described in this video.

Cluster Bleep-Bomb: On Day 1, the two leaders of Advance go on the air to give a celebratory speech. Unfortunately, Peter is very drunk, meaning he swears quite often, which leaves you with the duty to enforce this trope. Peter returns in The Tempest. While he is not openly drinking, the constant electric shocks make him swear even more. Patrick Bannon when he gets attacked by the Snugglehugs during the Lockdown chapter. Graham Bannon also tends to swear a lot in The Telethon. One swear is even several seconds long.

My God, What Have I Done?: Alan James, if Jeremy shoots himself in the wake of showing the Day 296 Disrupt tape - because Jeremy discovering the leader of Disrupt was, in his view, a vain and egotistical Windmill Crusader. A tape afterwards has a message where he admits that he was too concerned with being the face of the movement he forgot about other people, and that he wishes he could have fought with him. Peter Clement, who screams at Julia for nuking four cities and making him indirectly complicit in mass-murder, and then attempts to commit political suicide to take her down with him. She has him assassinated.

In Day 2602, if you killed off Jeremy and kept Alan alive but don't play the leaked tape, Jenny will pull off a "The Reason You Suck" Speech on Alan, who shoots her dead before she can finish.

Mood Whiplash: Jeremy interviews a group of people with silly medical conditions, including Frankie Steampipe, a man who has farts with comic timing, and Rose Piercy, a woman who had the hiccups for nine months, wanting to be taken seriously. Then, in the middle of the interview, he takes a gun from a security officer and holds everyone in the newsroom hostage. In the middle of the Hostage Situation, Rose comments that she is cured of the hiccups. A silly sitcom-esque scene where you're adding a laugh track is interrupted by the equipment turning off because of a power shortage. It turns out that the power shortage is the result of nukes in foreign cities set off by Advance. When the broadcast resumes, Julia Salisbury is claiming credit for the attack and making her demands. In "The Finale" (if certain conditions are met), just as Megan Wolfe and Julia Salisbury are getting ready to do an interview on a show that is less "news" and more "talk show" is stormed by Alan James and members of Disrupt, including a very much alive (if rather stubbled) Jeremy Donaldson.

Troubled Production
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_a76de48b
comment
Troubled Production: An In-Universe one with Dying Is Another Man's Job, the show featured in the Live & Spooky DLC. Graham Bannon produced the script of the show, most of which was conceived and co-written by Marie Murphy, and had a massive studio and production facility constructed to accommodate the production. Graham took out a massive loan for the construction to hide his vast gambling debt. The show starred Graham as daredevil protagonist Percival Peril, who always carried a set of dumbbells with him, alongside his love interest, Mary. Part of the production was Cedric Sloane, an ex-military prop master with a fiery temper, Brent Backflip, Graham's stunt double, and Marie Murphy, the costume designer theorized to have been Graham's ex. During the show's production, Graham would get into frequent arguments with the cast and shrunk the show's budget to cut corners. He removed Marie's role as the show's co-producer while making heavy revisions to the script. At one point, Brent's harness broke and caused him to fall into the sound stage as a result of Graham buying low-grade material. The blame was falsely put on Marie for sabotaging the costume. Tensions grew between Marie and Graham after Brent's accident. He would try to bribe her into silence when she complained about her budget cuts and ignored advice, which she refused to accept. Shortly after, a fire broke out in the projector room that destroyed the show's original scripts and reels. No cause for the fire was discovered, but it was widely believed to be an accident by Marie, who supposedly hung herself in the vault shortly afterwards. In reality, Graham ordered all of the material that proved Marie created the show and doused them in gasoline, before locking the room so no one could access it. Marie would have one more confrontation with Graham near the soundstage, expressing her disgust at Graham's script revisions. She taunted Graham by revealing she had a surviving film reel, and threatened to expose him as a fraud. As Graham begged her for the final tape, Marie either fell or was pushed by Graham into the vault, killing her. Using rope he was bundling before the confrontation, Graham hung Marie's body with the rope and framed her death as a suicide. Brent's accident, the studio's fire, and Marie's suicide led to the show's cancellation. Graham retreated from the public eye in disgrace, and the soundstage went abandoned because of rumors that Marie's spirit haunted the premises.

MegaCorp: Rymmington-Svist manufactures various products, ranging from contraception to toys and video game consoles, and has a monopoly on the flard market. They buy independent businesses to corner the market, sponsor both Advance and Disrupt, and have no qualms about selling dangerous products or using child labor. Depending on how Sophia Rymmington is portrayed, they can be portrayed as an innovative company with poor foresight, or prone to coming up with outlandish ideas.

Deliberate Values Dissonance: "The Telethon" is set in 1954, and has elements of this. Graham patronizes the women, there's a chauvinistic musical number, and the ads include a lead-based detergent marketed towards women, and a cigarette brand that is "100% cancer-free". Furthermore, minced oaths and vulgar words (such as "fart", "fudge", and "pervert") must be censored.

Pyrrhic Victory: In multiple endings. Even in the endings where Julia wins, its heavily implied that she's cracking under the pressure of the problems she caused and that her Bread and Circuses facade is cracking.

All for Nothing: You, yes, you can apply this on Day 296: The Heatwave. You can choose not to play Jeremy's VHS tape, dashing his chance at going out in glory. Then, you can further censor what he says about Advance's secret project underground right before he is gunned down or arrested. Even if you do play the tape, it turns out that it's Alan James leading Disrupt, the one person Jeremy doesn't want to see, and then you can further add insult to injury by censoring anything against Advance before he pulls the trigger on himself or is arrested by Advance. In the Path B endings, you can do this to Jeremy again. The entire Channel One team arranges for Jeremy to confront Julia Salisbury during the show, but while Jenny is still preparing the footage that he wants to show, the police (or "Community Cohesion Officers") break into the studio to arrest Jeremy. While blood drips down his face, Jeremy begs Alex to play the footage, saying "don't let it all be in vain," as he's dragged away. If you choose not to play the footage, it is indeed all in vain, as the public never learns about Julia's murder of Peter Clement, Julia subsequently remains the Prime Minister, the Nightly Show continues on as a vapid shell of its former self, and Jeremy either dies in Betterment or comes back to the Nightly Show changed, seemingly brainwashed into accepting Advance or else maintaining the facade just to stay alive.

Accidental Misnaming: There's a running gag during the last segment of the Lockdown where Jeremy is repeatedly addressed by the wrong name (Jamie, Jerejimmy, Gerbil, etc.), and the subtitles refer to him by whatever wrong name he was given last. Later in the segment, Jeremy goes to correct them, but gives a completely different wrong name himself.

Fiery Cover Up: The Bannon Soundstage seen in "Live & Spooky" went up in flames, supposedly caused by Marie, that destroyed most of the original scripts and film for Dying Is Another Man's Job. In reality, Graham had stolen them and doused them in petroleum so he could hide the fact Marie was behind most of the show.

Take That!: Patrick Bannon getting attacked by the Snugglehugs critters in the bathroom is a spoof on the infamous Game Over scene in Night Trap, in which Lisa gets attacked and captured by the Augers in the bathroom (which is the very same scene that led to the creation of the Entertainment Software Rating Board in the first place). And unlike that game, you get away with letting him get killed in this scene, which is capped off with one Snugglehugs critter getting a close-up on the screen with a scary look that says "Take that, Night Trap!"

Brutal Bonus Level: The Challenge Room missions take some of the toughest segments of the game and add extra layers of Interface Screw, such as your controls being randomly swapped and/or electrified, insane levels of interference throughout the entire segment, having to deal with the "overheat" mechanic from Day 296, and/or the Snugglehugs from "The Lockdown" invading your office and randomly sabotaging your controls if you don't swat them away. In addition to that, your viewership drops much faster than in the normal game, to the point where a single mistake can easily shave off a huge chunk of your meter, and you won't have enough time to build it back up.

The '80s

The '80s: This game takes place in an alternate timeline. The first part of Episode 1 is set in 1984, the second part and Episode 2 in 1985, and the first third of Episode 3 is set in 1987, but one with alternate history and fictional countries (with Territory One being a facsimile of England). The bonus episodes are set during an international lockdown between episode 1 and 2 in a coma dream, and the Telethon episode is set between the second and third gameplay days when you just got the job and management tests your suitability to keep it by working on an archive tape from decades earlier, featuring the Prime Minister's break into public fame. "Live & Spooky" is set in January 1985 and happens between The Telethon and Episode 2, while "Bits Of Your Life" takes place seven weeks before the start of the story, when Dave was still the vision mixer.

Shout-Out

Shout-Out: One of the achievements you get in the game (in which you cut to the ad before Jeremy can kill himself) is "You Either Die a Hero...". The Mr. (and Mrs.) Snugglehugs toys are a spoof on Furby, while their dangers is based on the fact that toys like Sky Dancers and Cabbage Patch Snacktime Kids had damaged careless kids in the 1990s. At one time, Geoff Algebra eats a carrot in the same manner as Bugs Bunny. Some of the headlines refer to pop culture titles, such as "We Shall Overcome", "A House Divided", "Start Me Up", "Papers, Please", "7 Days to Die", "Populous" and "Don't Starve". The two Rymmington-Svist employees that appear in their ads are named Brad and Janet. Otho and Lobelia Jackson-Randygannet, seen in Day 1975, are named after the Sackville-Bagginses. During the "Wheel of Truth" segment, Jordan Rankly gets grilled about a specific incident where she ordered takeout and disguised it as her own cooking, in a clear nod to the famous "Steamed Hams" meme from The Simpsons. Live & Spooky is based on the infamous Screen One episode Ghostwatch, including Patrick guest-starring in it and an evil spirit seemingly terrorizing the crew and potentially killing Alex). But unlike Ghostwatch, the events of Live & Spooky turn out to be real. The backdrop and logo appear to be based on the paranoraml reality show Most Haunted. The "RS-85 Wow Box" commercial promotes its signature game, ''A.T. Alien Traveler, which Sophia has made thousands of copies of in a desert facility because of its heavy demand.

It's only when one of them (Brian Truman) is getting arrested for exposing Advance's hypocrisy and corruption that Jeremy gets to the point when he snaps and takes a pistol from the CCO, holding everyone in the newsroom at gunpoint.

During the show's production, Graham would get into frequent arguments with the cast and shrunk the show's budget to cut corners. He removed Marie's role as the show's co-producer while making heavy revisions to the script. At one point, Brent's harness broke and caused him to fall into the sound stage as a result of Graham buying low-grade material. The blame was falsely put on Marie for sabotaging the costume.

Marie would have one more confrontation with Graham near the soundstage, expressing her disgust at Graham's script revisions. She taunted Graham by revealing she had a surviving film reel, and threatened to expose him as a fraud. As Graham begged her for the final tape, Marie either fell or was pushed by Graham into the vault, killing her. Using rope he was bundling before the confrontation, Graham hung Marie's body with the rope and framed her death as a suicide.

One of the news anchors ends up committing suicide, getting gunned down on air, or is arrested instead depending on your choices. Exaggerated when Advance nuke four cities and threaten to begin the apocalypse if the rest of the continent doesn't surrender. This is effectively the turning point between a corrupted democracy and a full-blown dictatorship with worldwide stakes.

Deliberately Monochrome: The in-universe camera feed in the Telethon level in its entirety, all capturing the Retraux feel of the TV shows of The '50s. Old clips of a younger Peter Clement which can be shown in footage being played during his eulogy are displayed in black and white, showing that they were filmed before color TV was invented.

Gosh Dang It to Heck!: In the Telethon level, what sounds like mild profanity in modern times such as "fart", "crap", "pervert", "baloney", and "fudge" is strictly taboo as it was in The '50s, and you have to make it enact the "Censored for Comedy" with the censor button.

What the Hell, Hero?: If you denied your 19-year-old daughter Suzie her vacation on Christmas Day, then Megan will appear in her Jeremy Donaldson disguise toward the end of the Lockdown level, calling you out on the act (thankfully, that turns out to be a dream). However, letting her go results in her death unless the player sides with Advance, allowing a choice to bring her home. In Day 296, if you defied Boseman's orders and played the Disrupt ad tape as Jeremy told you to, the former will express disappointment in you:

Adventures in Comaland: The entirety of Day ???: The Lockdown, set after Alex is knocked out by an electrocuted broadcasting set, focuses on Furby look-alikes having gone rogue, forcing the country into lockdown. If one pays careful attention to the details within the broadcast, they'll find that it's surreal, with constant misnaming of characters and bizarre news stories. However, you can make choices with the headlines and make the broadcast filled with Black Comedy or make it even more surreal.

Anti-Frustration Features: When Lawrence Blunderclatch swears on the second segment of Day 1, you won't be penalized for not censoring it since you haven't been properly introduced to the mechanic yet. That said, you can still censor it if you wish if you know it's coming. Individual mechanics such as interference and electrocution can be turned off (or in the case of censorship and headline selection, handled automatically) if you'd prefer not to deal with them during your playthrough. Bits Of Your Life allows the player to skip over the archive footage they've already seen.

The Other Darrin: A rare in-universe example. In one narrative path, Patrick Bannon is caught on camera saying negative things about Advance. He's immediately shuffled away and replaced on camera by his assistant Francis. Everyone simply refers to her as "Patrick," and she spends the next several years as an on-camera reporter — always keeping up the illusion that she's Patrick Bannon. The credits simply refer to her as "Not Patrick."

Ship Tease
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_dcb9c541
comment
Ship Tease: There are many moments that seem to indicate that Jenny has feelings for Jeremy, and perhaps vice versa: Starting from the very first scene of the game, they're often arguing, trading sharp, snarky remarks that can come across as Belligerent Sexual Tension or Like an Old Married Couple. Despite this, their banter is ultimately lighthearted - it's rare for one to take actual offense to the other's comments. In fact, their long working relationship makes the arguing seem almost affectionate. In between the arguments, they have a number of softer moments early on - like Jeremy's subtle disappointment when Jenny says she's not coming for a drink because she has a date, and Jenny's tendency to lean in close and put her arm around the back of Jeremy's chair while talking to him or watching a broadcast with him. Day 296 is full of this. There's a whole Poor Communication Kills plot between Jeremy and Jenny, though the player won't get to see most of it until they watch the rushes. Jeremy, pissed about being relegated to covering fluff stories, lashes out at Jenny, asking why she's even here when it was supposed to be her day off. Absolutely furious, Jenny storms off, only returning later in the segment to berate him. But in Segment 2, it turns out that the reason Jeremy didn't want Jenny to come in to work that day wasn't because he didn't like her, but because he planned to quit that night - it is implied he specifically picked that night to give his speech and show the Disrupt tape because Jenny (and Megan) wouldn't have to be in the studio to deal with the fallout. If Alex plays the tape, Jenny says "God, I love you Jeremy, but..." while trying to talk him down, though it's unclear whether it's platonic or romantic. And during his final speech, Jeremy mentions that he wanted to try having a relationship, having never tried it before. And if Alex didn't play the tape, Jenny admits that the only reason she came into work on her day off was because she wanted to see Jeremy. In the finale, there's plenty of this as well. In Path B ( Jeremy is alive and Alan is dead), upon Jeremy's return to the studio, the two smile fondly at each other as they snark at Julia together, and Jenny pats him on the shoulder as she leaves. And when security start pounding on the doors and Jeremy starts to panic, Jenny puts a hand on his shoulder in an attempt to comfort him, only stepping back when the CCOs arrest him. In Path D ( both Jeremy and Alan are alive), Jenny hesitantly says "Jeremy?" as soon as he reveals himself. The two are obviously overjoyed to see each other again, embracing each other tightly while everyone else in the studio watches in silence. And later, if Alex didn't play the unknown footage, they actually go out to dinner together! During the Lockdown episode if you pay attention to the segment with Katie & Alan being interviewed it becomes obvious that they're in the same room. Alan gets up and leaves the interview but as he does so he walks directly into Katie's camera shot. There's not a lot of reasons why they would be in the same house during a lockdown and being together is one of them. It is a Dream Sequence, so perhaps represents some internalized view of their being some Slap-Slap-Kiss sexual tension in the eyes of the director.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Many of the positive choices Alex can make during the incidents can end having consequences later. The first incident in the game, on Day 6, involves Chris asking Alex for their passport so they can flee the country and avoid losing their wealth. Giving them their passport will increase Chris' relationship but will cause Chris to be killed by Advance's nukes on Day 371, compared to denying Chris' request, lowering their relationship but allowing them to survive. During Christmas on Day 48, Suzie will ask Alex if she can go on vacation. Like Chris on Day 6, allowing her to increases Suzie's relationship but will cause her to be killed in Irkistan on Day 371 unless the player has enough money to pay Gail on Day 363. Two incidents involve going into work on Alex and Sam's anniversary. Skipping work will increase Sam's relationship with Alex but anger Boseman, while going to work will anger Sam if their relationship with Alex is poor.

We Will Have Euthanasia in the Future: On Day 153, Julia and Peter announce Transition Centres, where the elderly can go get euthanized (or, as they like to call it, "transitioned") if they are too old or sick. It is theoretically voluntary, though concerns are raised about if the elderly might feel pressured into doing this. In time, the Transition Centres also offer their services for the chronically ill, regardless of age. By the end, in the Path C unknown footage, the Disrupt leadership discusses "repurposing" the Transition Centres in order to murder hundreds of thousands of people - intellectuals, radicals, free thinkers, their friends and family, and anyone who might stand in their way. And in the Path A unknown footage, it is implied that Julia used the Transition Centres in order to murder almost everyone who knew about the true cause of the Sterility Plague.

comment
Filming for Easy Dub: The headline segment at the beginning of each broadcast consists of brief clips with the news anchors that cut out while the headline plays, allowing for both the headlines and the parts between them to have many variations that react to the players' choices. By contrast, the rest of the broadcasts typically only have two versions depending on whether the public has a higher perception of Advance or Disrupt. The headlines themselves are entirely told by narration over static images, which makes the sheer amount of permutations they have much more budget-friendly.

Innocent Innuendo: Geoff Algebra mentions "all the people he's touched". With his plays, hopefully.

Your Terrorists Are Our Freedom Fighters: Alan James all but name-drops the trope at the end, provided you've got him, Julia and Jeremy in the same room at that point.

Distanced from Current Events: In-Universe. The Medicated, a movie teased on Day 1 that centers around a pair of scientists seeking the cure to a Sterility Plague, ends up getting pulled from theaters due to the actual sterility crisis that came about following Liberation Night. Its release is pushed back to Day 1975 so that it can be re-edited into The Automated, a story about artificial intelligence.

Dark Reprise: If you play the Disrupt tape on Day 296, the National Nightly News jingle played during the titles on Day 371 will be in a minor key. If Rymmington-Svist's stocks are low before "The Uprising", the ad's normal upbeat flute theme will be off-beat and the vocals are replaced with a dull man saying them. One version of the Mister Bear (What's That Over There) song starts out as an optimistic beat about how Mister Bear and his friends will never accomplish their outlandish dreams, and it gets progressively darker and more violent until the beat is limping as a paragraph is dedicated to Mister Bear the serial rapist / sex maniac, and then he dies screaming.

Twin Switch: Sam's sibling Chris tries to do this with you by asking for your passport so they can flee the country. You can accept their request and give them your passport while the game gives you a lot of choices to decline at every opportunity, or you can keep refusing which royally pisses both them and Sam, starting a rift in the family and subsequently having Chris getting evicted soon enough.

Deadline News: In the Lockdown, when Patrick Bannon gets attacked by the Snugglehugs. When Jeremy eventually snaps and holds the newsroom hostage at gunpoint. If certain conditions are met at the finale Alan James can take the news room hostage and detonate a suicide vest killing everyone in the room, and possibly bringing the building down.

 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4
comment
Video Game Cruelty Potential: You can play the Mr. Snugglehugs ad and ignore the warning sticky note for a temporary increase in Rymmington-Svist's stocks. However, playing the ad causes the product to become a hit and cause the deaths of about 8,000 children. Also, you can be a cruel bastard in the genocide route and get both factions to dislike you, humiliate the side characters and bankrupt most companies while killing off everyone else. "Bring it all down" indeed.

Right-Wing Militia Fanatic: An uncomfortable number of Disrupt members are awfully eager to resort to violence or bring back the nastier parts of the old world. Alan James not the least of them.

Running Gag: Peter Clement espousing a parental proverb, preceded by "As me old mam used to say..." - it's also a cue for the player, since what he says next will always have at least one expletive. Flard, a mysterious substance that appears frequently in Rymmington-Svist's subplot and is never properly explained.

Last-Second Ending Choice
 Not for Broadcast (Video Game) / int_fb2ff597
comment
Last-Second Ending Choice: At the end of each route, you are given a chance to determine what kind of ending you want to see by being given a singular choice: Route A: If you don't play Boseman's tape, the new national anthem's performance proceeds unhindered. In the end, Julia Salisbury remains in power, albeit in the midst of such a rapidly declining population that she is essentially begging citizens to have children when she takes over NNN and turns it into her own personal talk show. If you play the tape, on the other hand, Julia is revealed to have known about the alterations to the country's food supplies that resulted in an ongoing Sterility Plague, destroying her reputation as elections are reinstated and Julia is ultimately voted out, with newly-elected head Katie Brightman hoping to reform the party. Route B: If the player does not play Jeremy's tape, Julia takes over as the new host of NNN as Jeremy is forced back into Betterment, where he will either be "rehabilitated" or die during his "treatment". If the tape is played, however, Julia is revealed to have had a fight with Peter Clements about her using nuclear weapons that ends with Peter threatening to expose Julia for the monster she is, and Julia subsequently ordering Peter's assassination. As a result, Julia is arrested and tried for war crimes. Route C: If the player does not play Julia's tape, Alan James sets off his suicide bomb vest, destroying Channel One and killing everyone in the studio. The news is replaced with a low-budget children's show featuring a miserable and disgraced Geoff Algebra. If the player does play the tape, Disrupt's leadership is exposed to be oligarchs planning to seize power after Advance is overthrown. As for Alan James, whom the oligarchs plan to dispose of after his usefulness is at an end: his suicide bomb is sabotaged and he is killed by security, but not before he manages to assassinate Julia. With the Prime Minister dead, the country either is taken over by the military in a junta, or completely descends into anarchy and civil war. Route D: If Jeremy's tape is not played, elections are reinstated, but the status quo is maintained as the country votes either to re-elect Julia, elect Disrupt into power, or vote for an unknown third-party coalition. If the tape is played, Disrupt's leaders are revealed to be corrupt oligarchs hoping to seize power in the event of Advance's collapse. Disrupt's reputation is destroyed, along with Julia's after Jeremy previously drilled her about the root cause of the nation's declining birth rates, and both are ultimately defeated at the polls by a new moderate political party named Accord, signaling the end of extremist politics.

Brick Joke: During the first segment of day 2602, the studio pet hamster escapes. Then during the second segment, Julia Salisbury screams "Rat!" when she accidentally stumbles upon the hamster. In "The Lockdown", Patrick Bannon pretends he is reporting on the Snugglehugs outside, claiming he is on "Bannon Avenue" when he's in the bathroom. During the final episode, "Patrick" has to make up a question for the prime minister, and in a similar manner says the question is from "Patricia" on "Camera Avenue". During the Golden Ending of "Live & Spooky", Patrick believes he'll either never work again or get put on the sports desk for covering up his father's misdeeds. Patrick is introduced as the sports anchor on Day 153.

Strawman News Media: Depending on how you play, the National Nightly News can end up very biased. In later broadcasts, Advance tries to get you to censor anything that might make them look bad. So does Disrupt.
