A list of common or notable sources used over tennis history. Keep in mind that like the rest of this wiki, this page is for sources that were commonly seen in tennis, rather than just YTP (for example, Spongebob Squarepants is a very common source in YouTube Poop but almost is never seen in tennis. That is not to say it is never seen, but nowhere near the levels of YTP.)
The three seasons of the Animated/Live Action Mario Cartoon from 1989-1991, each broadcast as their own series.

The Room
Tommy Wiseau
a lot of people
Often considered the "best worst movie ever", The Room is about... something. Probably. Oh hi, Mark!
A master filmography of cut-and-paste Z-grade action films often using a world's worth of stolen music in the background of certain scenes. The characters frequently dress in brightly colored ninja-suits, sometimes with the word NINJA emblazoned on them, and engage in NINJA CHALLENGES with each other, often becoming brutally murdered in the process. One film in particular, Ninja: Silent Assassin(1987) was often singled out for usage due its signature scene of two bumbling drug lords lashing out in obscenities when their "stuff" gets "torched"("BURNED??").
Lupin III: The Mystery of Mamo
Sōji Yoshikawa(director)
Crash2991
The first film anime adaption of Monkey Punch's manga and emblematic of the "red jacket" era, our main character among other things fakes his death in Dracula's castle, runs into a clone of Adolf Hitler, learns he may possibly be a clone himself, and essentially deals with his universe's version of Dr. Andross as the main antagonist. Used frequently by Crash during 2008 and 2009.
The Great Mouse Detective
Walt Disney Pictures
AshcrementVII

jacknjellify (Cary and Michael Huang), Adam Katz (AnimationEpic)
A collection of puzzle games released predominantly for PC from the late 90's to early 2000's. The second game, Riven, is known for its heavy use of the number five, and the "grain machine" in-joke in recent years.
Mario spin-off game for the ill-fated Phillips CD-i, famous for its low quality cutscenes. One of the very few sublicensed Mario games. I hope she made lotsa spaghetti!

(Gotta catch 'em all) / Gotta catch 'em all / Yeah
British progressive rock band that has shuffled through multiple lineups from 1968 to the present day. Despite a commercial peak with the US hit single "Owner of a Lonely Heart"(1984), their most well known incarnation is the Close to the Edge(1972) tour lineup of Jon Anderson, Chris Squire, Steve Howe, Rick Wakeman and Alan White, which were ultimately together sporadically as a touring and recording lineup(1972-1974, 1977-1979, 1996-1997, and 2002-2004) recording Tales of Topographic Oceans(1973), Going for the One(1977), Tormato(1978), and Keys of Ascension 1 + 2(1996/1997).
British progressive rock band that has shuffled through multiple lineups and styles of music from 1968 to the present day, considered a founding prog band. Their most celebrated work comes from the band's initial "metal" period of 1972-1974(including the albums Larks Tongues In Aspic, Starless and Bible Black and especially Red) and the band's poly-rhythmic "new wave" period of 1981-1984(including the albums Discipline, Beat and Three of a Perfect Pair), all of which has seen reference and utilization in various tennis matches.
Steely Dan
NS2, AshcrementVII, dani_phantump
1970's jazz-rock band largely centered around songwriters Donald Fagen and Walter Becker, known for 9 immaculately recorded and produced albums released from 1972-2003 and for their deeply intellectual, twisted, sardonic and reference-laden lyrics, within which are contained a long list of different alcoholic concoctions.
Motoi Sakuraba
MycroProcessor, ChrisGendo
Japanese composer and keyboardist with a penchant for immensely complex and epic synth-prog pieces. Contributed music to many video games and television dramas.
