Bonus 30 Rock Crossover:
Ash Tyler: This is my wife, Janelle Tyler, maiden name Tyler. Hopefully no relation.
Oh wow that’s weird. Stargate SG-1 also had an episode where a Lt. Tyler turned out to be an alien infiltrator in disguise: “The Fifth Man”.
That’s crazy. Is this a trope I’m just now learning about?
Oooh, nice catch, both of you. I dunno if Disco or The Orville used “Lieutenant Tyler” as the character name intentionally, but I think you might be the first to document this trope.
If a character named Tyler shows up on Lower Decks we’ll all be on red alert
I was shadowbanned from /r/risa for making a shitpost about it a few years ago 😅
Tyler Durden was also a fake aliasE. I’m wrong. Tyler is the narrators real name. All of IDs say Tyler.
Maybe in the future “Tyler” is just the most common human surname?
Anyone named Smith is instantly suspicious.
Clem Fandango, of course.
“Yes, I can hear you Clem Fandango!”
…I am amused that I never caught that before either, and I’m rewatching disco right now lol
Seska from Star Trek Voyager is another example, though she’s a Cardassian in the form of a Bajoran, not a human
Is her last name Tyler?
This also happened in an episode of The Outer Limits (spoilers: https://theouterlimits.fandom.com/wiki/The_Light_Brigade)
The name “Tyler” originates from “tile maker”, as in roof tiles. Apparently that occupation is just popular with spies?
