Conor's parody announcer voice was scary....but not as scary as the most extreme sweet scream. This segment rocked.

Not really a "new" trend but maybe taken to more of an "extreme" by more companies now.
Not even the first to make a parody of the trend since the writers of Stargate SG-1 made a satire of the term in 2001 for their 100th episode with a show called Wormhole X-treme.
My fave line was "...if this is not a real show then are we getting paid real money? ...Does my agent know about this?"
