Wallace & Gromit are the main characters in a series of clay stop-motion animated films by Nick Park of Aardman Animations. Wallace is an eccentric inventor and Gromit is his companion and dog. Gromit appears to be a lot more intelligent than his master, and often gets Wallace out of the trouble his inventions have caused. The Brothers Chaps appear to be fans of Wallace & Gromit, but most of the references occur because of Telltale Games involvement with Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People and Poker Night at the Inventory. Telltale developed Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures around the same time as SBCG4AP.
