Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Odd Squad Gadget Testers is a short-form Spin-Off series based on Odd Squad. It was one of two that were released on April Fool's Day as part of the Odd Squad Movie Marathon for PBS Kids Family Night (and also as a presumed prank, though if that was the intent or not is unknown).This series is hosted by Omar and Orla, self-proclaimed "Odd Squad Gadget Testers" who test various gadgets sent to them by the Gadget Laboratory at the Big Office and see whether they should be "zapped" or "scrapped". The gadgets can range from being Awesome, but Impractical to being handy when fending off villains, but there's always a math-based gadget that is tested.The four shorts released can be viewed on the PBS Kids Video App as well as its online video player.For the other short-form series released on the same day as this one, see Odd Squad Book Of Games.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Awesome, but Impractical

Awesome, but Impractical: All of the gadgets that are eventually scrapped look sturdy and decent, but what they do proves to either be detrimental to the user or completely worthless. One stellar example is the Make-Another-Gadget-inator Gadget, which can only be used to create a copy of the same gadget. An example of a gadget that is put in the "zap it" category but falls under the trope is the Paperweight-inator, which can't be activated and is only to be used as a paperweight.

Aesop Amnesia: Invoked for the sake of forcing the aesop in "The Multiply-by-Two-inator". Orla doesn't know what the multiplication symbol is and believes it's an X, despite having learned about multiplication numerous times before in Odd Squad.

Aside Glance: In "The Add-by-Three-inator", Orla gives one of these along with a head-shake when Omar hurls the Fix-a-Chair-inator with enough strength to tear a pretty sizeable hole in the Mobile Unit van. While he looks for a Fix-a-Hole-in-the-Van-inator gadget, she gives another one towards the audience that's coupled with a rather hilarious deadpan expression.
