Taz-Mania | comment |
Welcome to a land that's way under down under, the sky is always yellow in the rain or shine!This 65-Episode Cartoon series focuses on the vicious, carnivorous Looney Tunes Anti-Villain, the Tasmanian Devil aka "Taz". Only now he's not any of the three (unless he's trying to eat the Kiwi, but we'll get back to that); instead, it just shows Taz in his native Tazmania. Taz spends time with his family, hangs with his pals, collects bottle caps, works at his job as a bellhop and tries to eat the kiwi. Sure, it may sound boring, but no matter what Taz does, hilarity ensues. | |

Reading Ahead in the Script: Inverted in "Retakes Not Included". Bull and Axl realise that they have digressed too long and that the plot has moved on without them. They flip backwards through the script in order to catch up and prevent Taz from eating a cute fluffy bunny. | |

No Celebrities Were Harmed: Hugh is Bing Crosby, and Drew is Bob Hope (as his episodes are Whole Plot References to the Hope/Crosby "Road Pictures"); Wendal is Woody Allen. Molly's favorite Boy Band New Chips off the Block are an obvious play on New Kids on the Block. | |

Vile Vulture: In "Mall Wrecked", a pair of vultures named Henry and Gordon harass Taz, Jean, and Molly who are stranded at the closed mall when their car broke down. Unusually, Henry and Gordon refer to themselves as predators as opposed to scavengers. Eventually, they get stripped of their feathers by an enraged Taz for attempting to eat a sleeping Molly. | |

Genre Savvy: Just about any character, due to there being No Fourth Wall, though notably Willie Wombat, who is all too aware that he's going through the motions of a predator-chases-prey cartoon, and grows increasingly resentful about it as the series goes on. | |

G-Rated Mental Illness | |
Taz-Mania / int_17a268d5 | comment |
G-Rated Mental Illness: The whole concept of Taz. Taz's family is perfectly articulate and self-controlled. They can spin, but don't do so randomly. Even his littlest brother. Despite being the oldest of three, Taz... has decidedly less smarts and self-control. While a majority of Looney Tunes are mentally handicapped in some way, it is this comparison to other perfecly capable characters that makes it appear heavier and more grounded in reality. Ah, the joys of strongly insinuating that a popular children's cartoon character has a visible learning disability, possibly Down's Syndrome or a form of autism... | |

Misplaced Wildlife | |
Taz-Mania / int_17a45ff5 | comment |
Misplaced Wildlife: Somewhat averted. Many of the characters are creatures indigenous to Tasmania including wombats, platypi, and of course Tasmanian devils, as well as animals more common in mainland Australia like dingoes and koalas, though some are invasive/introduced species in real life such as turtles and boars. Then again, the island in the series is the fictional Taz-mania, which just happens to have almost the same name. | |

Mistaken for Special Guest: The episode "Gone with the Windbag" shows Bushwacker Bob and Taz preparing for the arrival of a nasty critic named F.H. Leghorn. When Foghorn Leghorn shows up, they assume it's him, so they do whatever it takes to please him. Along the way they're rude to another guest at the hotel, kicking him out of his room, running over him with a bike and offering him a sandwich from the garbage while cooking constant meals for Foghorn. The guest loses his temper, revealing the he is F.H. Leghorn and will give them a scathing review. | |

Chekhov's Gun: Played with in an episode where a large weight dangles precariously above the characters throughout. Later it's revealed that it was All Just a Dream of Francis Bushlad's. Bushlad berates the writers for the lame ending and for not using the weight. The writers retaliate by dropping it on him repeatedly. | |

Animated Actors | |
Taz-Mania / int_254fc1c6 | comment |
Animated Actors: In "But Is It Taz?", Taz gets fed up, rips up his contract and storms off the set. "The amazing shrinking Taz and co." squeezes this trope for all it's worth. We see the "actors" between scenes, being interviewed and commenting on their job; Bull Gator is implied to be somewhat jealous of Taz ("Mister Merchandised Character") and Taz's dad keeps walking on the set to get a role despite not being the episode's script. | |

Taz has to pee so Hugh stops at the Spy Gas station. Some spies follow him into the restroom. Meanwhile, as Hugh and Drew talk to the manager, he offers them a free orange bowling ball. When they leave, another spy arrives using the same code phrases that came up in Hugh and Drew's conversation, and the manager realizes he gave the ball to the wrong person. He sends spies to get it back. | |

Taz-Mania / int_48b9731f | comment |
Paper-Thin Disguise: In "Devil of a Job", after Mum informs Bob that a Tasmanian hotel should have a Tasmanian Devil employed on opening day, Bob has what he thinks is a Tasmanian Devil... Only to be a small bird in a Tasmanian Devil costume. Mum knows it's not a real Tasmanian Devil, but Bob is angry because the bird had told him he was. Justified since at this point, Bob doesn't really know what a Tasmanian Devil looks like. | |

The audience is silent for the 5, 10, and even 15.99999999 ton weights (though they "briefly crack smiles, and then fall into a deep depression".), but laugh hysterically when the 16 ton weight drops. | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
Taz-Mania / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: There were a few video games made based on the show for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, Master System, Game Gear, SNES and Game Boy. Only Taz primarily starred in them (indeed the Genesis/Mega Drive version is the only time Taz's family gets screen time on any of these video games, and only for the opening cutscene. Most of the other characters/enemies were generic alligators, carnivorous plants, rock monsters and others, culminating in a final boss battle with a gigantic seagull). Francis also appeared as a recurring enemy in the SNES version and a boss in the Genesis game. Axl and Bull were a stage's bosses in their truck on the Genesis/Mega Drive version. Francis and Bull were also bosses on the Master System version as well. The Bushrats also appear as enemies in a few stages, especially in the Master System and Game Gear versions. The SNES version focused on Taz's efforts to catch and eat the Kiwi on a busy highway. Some characters from the show would appear as obstacles, and occasionally Digeri Dingo would hand Taz a power-up. At the end of each level when the sufficient amount of Kiwi were "collected", Taz would drift off to sleep and open his mouth, at which point all the "collected" Kiwi (as well as any eaten bird, Bushrat, and whatever food powerup Digeri handed to him for some reason) would escape from his mouth unharmed. | |

Taz-Mania / int_615fdb1f | comment |
Dream Sequence: A surprisingly emotionally one in "Comic Madness". Taz dreams of being an expy of Superman. His parents are kidnapped by the super villain Bad Guy (who resembles an expy of Darth Vader), who forces Taz to choose between saving his parents, or preventing the villain from burning all of Taz's comics. Taz does the right thing, but then the reveal happens that underneath the helmet is Taz's younger brother who says Taz loved those comics more than him, this causes Taz-Man to fall, and shocks Taz awake. | |

Never the Selves Shall Meet: Marvin the Martian's team-up with Taz. For whatever reason, hooking Taz up to some big gyroscope thing allows him to spin them through time. Marvin is always cautioning him not to meet himself, as "It results in an Earth-Shattering Kaboom." Of course, he forgets this advice. The result was somewhat similar to the ending of that Tiny Toon Adventures episode where Buster, Hamton and Plucky drank beer. | |

Mistaken for Profound: Happens to Taz in "Ask Taz". Bushwhacker Bob has Taz scrubbing the floor at the hotel. A senator on vacation asks Bob for cruise advice and hears Taz grumbling "Taz hate water." Just then, the television reports that the cruise ship has sunk. Feeling lucky, the senator then asks Taz's advice on a flood bill. The senator takes "Taz hate water" to mean Taz approves of the bill and compliments him on his genius. Bob stirkes at this business opportunity and quickly sets up an "Ask Taz" booth. The phones ring off the hook and Taz diligently answers them "Taz hate water" while still trying to perform his regular job as bellhop. When Taz is offered a television show, Bob craves the proceeds. Taz uses this as leverage to make Bob do some work. The show is a hit, with Taz answering "Taz hate water" to every question. | |

Epic Fail: One episode started with Taz breaking character and explaining that he was tired and going to take a nap now. Francis X. Bushlad spends the rest of the episode trying to catch him, and does an even worse job of it than usual. Even though Taz is asleep the whole time. | |

Priceless Ming Vase: The golf trophy in "Return of the Road to Taz-Mania Strikes Back". In "Gone to Pieces", Taz accidentally breaks Jean's vase when he plays tiddlywinks with his bottle cap collection. After spending the entire episode trying to put the vase back together, with each attempt breaking the vase even more, Taz eventually sells his bottle cap collection to raise the money to buy a new vase. At the end of the episode, it is revealed that Jean was planning to sell the vase at her next garage sale for five dollars. Taz gets upset and destroys the replacement vase when he realizes that all his efforts were for nothing. | |

Beware the Nice Ones: When Constance finds out her favorite wrestler isn't just putting on an act, and is really and truly beating seven kinds of snot out of Taz, she takes exception to his behavior and thoroughly kicks his ass. | |
