An Affectionate Parody of late-night talk shows created by Andrew and Michael Flack.Initially used to satirize the Late Night War of 2010 between Jay Leno and Conan O'Brien, Mortimer's Vlog follows the exploits of a monkey named Mortimer and his unwilling sidekick/bandleader Joe as they shoot a Video Blog that he thinks is a network TV show.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })The show takes on a semi-serialized format, with each "season" (every ten episodes is considered one season) having a plot-arc that usually gets started about halfway through.Season 1 Mortimer begins filming the show, interviewing his friends and forcing his roomate, Joe, to be his bandleader. There is mention of a show that follows Mortimer's Vlog called Talk Weakly With Steve Wikli. Mortimer announces that he's going to retire from the show and Steve is going to replace him. Two episodes later, Steve takes over Mortimer's Vlog. Mortimer's not happy about this. A mild-mannered monster named Rutherford takes Steve's old job at Talk Weakly. Mortimer beats Steve up on-air and reclaims his show.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Season 2 (current season) With Steve out of the picture, Mortimer gets back to doing his show as per usual. A few holidays are celebrated, including Halloween, Christmas, and even New Year's. During the Halloween Episode a demon named Zantitus approaches Mortimer and suggests that he might not be from around here. Eventually, Zantitus calls Joe, inviting him to turn Mortimer's Vlog into a Product Promotion Parade, setting a plan in motion that threatens to destroy the show... forever... | |

Author Appeal: The creators of the series are totally gay for—er, VERY enthusiastic about Conan O'Brien and late-night talk shows as a whole. | |

Take That! | |
| Mortimers Vlog (Web Video) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: Numerous pot-shots are taken at Jay Leno throughout the series, some subtly, some much more overt. "I have more cars than Jay Leno." "And you're just as douchey." | |

Celeb Crush | |
| Mortimers Vlog (Web Video) / int_c0e5fc39 | comment |
Celeb Crush: Mortimer seems to have one of these on Fred Armisen; appropriately, rival Steve has one of these on Jason Sudeikis. Pretty much every character seemingly has a crush on Neil Patrick Harris. Even Joe. | |

Biting-the-Hand Humor: Mortimer and especially Joe constantly point out the fact that they're on a lowly rated youtube channel. | |

RunningGag | |
| Mortimers Vlog (Web Video) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Too many to count! Mortimer can never remember who Steve Wikli is, even though he almost lost his show to him. Throughout the first season, Joe played a completely different instrument every episode. Mortimer can't get through a single "Name That Song" without giving away the answers, even if Joe isn't playing anything recognizable at all! Subverted when Joe very obviously hums "When The Saints Go Marching In" and Mortimer has no idea what he's doing. Joe's various illegal activities and subsequent jailtime. | |
