* Taken to ridiculous extremes in an episode of the ''[[Earthworm Jim (animation)|Earthworm Jim]]'' cartoon, where a scientist observes the fibers in an evil sofa that brainwashes people into becoming couch potatoes. Said fibers turn out to be ''alive'', and one of them shouts "We're being watched! Act natural!", followed by the fibers indulging in [[Not-So-Innocent Whistle|Not So Innocent Whistling]].
* Miko and Raf [[Epic Fail|trying to lie to Optimus]] in an episode of ''[[Transformers Prime]]''. It goes as well as expected.
* ''[[Pinky and The Brain]]'': In the [[Christmas Episode]], the duo hide themselves in Santa's reindeer team, wearing antlers on their heads. The Brain tells Pinky to just act natural. Cue Pinky moving erratically, singing, laughing, and making his usual [[Verbal Tic|Verbal Tics]]s.
