Sometimes, I'll cite something as an example of terms from my dictionary. Those are always linked for your convenience.
When I come up with new categories, I'll explain those, too.
I hope this helps!
Episode Reviews on the site follow a template. Let me explain it to you.
Introducing: these are going to be people who stick around for a
while, or any character introduced by the kids on the show who is part of the background,
i.e. The P*lace’s owner, other store owners
Guest star: Obviously, someone just popping in for that episode
Invention count: this keeps track of how many things Riley (and
occasionally Flip) has invented or claimed to invent (or possibly didn’t, like MAC)
Vocab: This is words and phrases heard on the show, such as
“gweeb”. The number in parentheses indicates how many times a word or phrase has
been used.
Continuity, gags and themes: These are the things that happen more
than once on the show, things we know for certain about characters and the neighborhood,
and repeated plot ideas.
New Locations: For review purposes, “new” locations are
the ones that get mentioned or used in the episode.
Pop culture references: Any references to real life musicians,
movies, or stars. I’ll try to provide links to official sites, Wikipedia articles, or
imdb listings in case you have no clue who these people are.
Solos: I’m counting solos as someone singing all the lead
vocals by themselves. The number in parentheses is how many solos each kid had per
episode. The last number is how many solos each kid has had up until this point. For
instance:
Kid (2) = 16
Kid had two solos in that episode. His total number of solos is now
16.
Episode Total: All solos in that particular episode.
Total: The grand total of all solos in the reviewed episodes.
Performance outfits: These are all the coordinating outfits the kids
wear, not only in stage final numbers, but in other musical numbers where there’s a
theme to their clothes.
- Any little facts that I’ve noticed that don’t fall into
other categories are listed here.
