Um mundo “groundhog day” de séries animadas. Esse tropo tem um nome?

26

Existem muitas séries (normalmente animações, porque fazer algo vivo seria bastante difícil, presumo) com um único truque: a linha do tempo nunca avança.

"Os Simpsons" foi ao ar por 28 temporadas (quase 30 anos!), mas seus personagens nunca envelhecem e nunca mudança. Mesma coisa com "South Park" e " Family Guy ". Aconteça o que acontecer em qualquer episódio, isso (quase) nunca terá impacto duradouro em nada.

Em "South Park", esta é uma base para algumas piadas em andamento (como a morte de Kenny), mas nem "Os Simpsons" nem "Family Guy" reconhecem a existência do "Dia da Marmota".

Esse tropo tem um nome?

Isso se chama Tempo dos quadrinhos , também conhecido como Linha de tempo flutuante também conhecida como Escala da escala de tempo.

The problem is this. On one hand, Superman is a high-selling, successful character with a lot of licenses and so on based off of him. You don't want him to age or die, because that means losing that successful character. On the other hand, Superman exists as part of a greater universe, and if all the stories in that universe are continuously frozen in time, that cuts off a lot of possibilities. So what do you do? Comic-Book Time. You use the illusion of time passing. You never refer to specific dates if you can help it, and you let characters change, but only a little.

Ou você pode estar pensando em Continuidade Negativa

Not only is there no established continuity, but the show is free to completely wreck the continuity and be assured of a full reboot by the start of the next episode. Burned a hole in your favorite outfit? Don't worry, it'll be better next episode. Burned down your house? No worries, it will be back next time. Turned into a frog, died, destroyed the universe? No problem! If one episode ever continues from the last, it's only because it's part of a storyline too long for just one episode — don't expect any apparent changes from the previous episode to be recognized outside that specific storyline.

TVTropes chama isso de Status Quo é Deus .

Within a work, particularly long-running series and franchises, almost nothing changes. If something does change, it's generally reset back to the way it was before very quickly.

Uma forma mais extrema disso é Continuidade Negativa , onde acontecem eventos que devem

Também vale a pena mencionar a Técnica de redefinição de botões .

The reset button technique (based on the idea of status quo ante) is a plot device that interrupts continuity in works of fiction. Simply put, use of a reset button device returns all characters and situations to the status quo they held before a major change of some sort was introduced. Typically it occurs either in the middle of a program and negates a portion of it, or it occurs at the beginning, or very end, of a program to negate all that came before it. Often used in science fiction television series, animated series, soap operas, and comic books, the device allows elaborate and dramatic changes to characters and the fictional universe that might otherwise invalidate the premise of the show with respect to future episodes or issues continuity.
