TV Tropes

There are so many different tropes in television. Some make the show better, others worse. I many somewhat older TV shows, we experience the "Everbody Laughs Ending", in which all the characters flash a cheesy grin or laugh at a joke that isn't funny. While sometimes a nice ending note, this usually just makes the show a bit cheesy. However, without all of these tropes, our television experience just wouldn't be the same. Such as the "Anvil on Head" trope that is so common between road runner and coyote. Or the "Boxing Episode" that one may have seen when watching the Three Stooges or MASH. There are also countless kids' show tropes, like the end song. All of these things make television the way it is, whether we like it or not.
