Poor Communication Kills
 Wait In The Wings (Web Video) / int_1c445e86
comment
Poor Communication Kills: As highlighted in his episode on Carrie, when director Terry Hands was told by the investors to “think Grease" in creating the look of the show. He thought they meant the country, not the hit musical, which was why he dressed the actors – playing American high school students – in togas.

Acclaimed Flop
 Wait In The Wings (Web Video) / int_3ab3a7b
comment
Acclaimed Flop: In-Universe. Discussed in the video, "What even IS a Broadway FLOP?" Ultimately, he argues that this is why shows shouldn't be judged solely on whether they succeeded or flopped, because they can flop for any number of reasons and it doesn't always indicate their artistic quality.

Sleeper Hit
 Wait In The Wings (Web Video) / int_55f62ad4
comment
Sleeper Hit: In-Universe. The SpongeBob Musical episode covers how it became this trope. Even Brendon expressed surprise towards the end of the video, stating how he'd been fully prepared to make another video about a flop and why the whole production had been a bad idea, only to find himself enjoying the show too.

From Bad to Worse: The episodes discussing the history behind a flop will usually go in this direction.

Driving Question

comment
Driving Question: The Rebecca episode has one question repeated throughout: "What the hell is going on?" The mystery being: who exactly were the investors that magically appeared to fund the show, and what happened that lead to them backing out at the last minute?

Flashback B-Plot: The Rebecca episode follows two main storylines: the present day, as defense attorney Ronald G. Russo tries to figure out what happened to the show's mysterious investors, and the past, covering how the classic novel was originally adapted into a musical.

Troubled Production: In-Universe. The series has covered many productions that either flopped or, in the case of Rebecca, never actually made it to Broadway.

Deadpan Snarker: Brendon has his moments (see the Blatant Lies entry for one example), particularly when it concerns Turn Off the Dark.
