* Occurs in the [[Axis Powers Hetalia|America×England]] fanfic ''You Can't Take the Sky from Me'', when [[Belligerent Sexual Tension|America and England]] are in England's cabin... then [[Deadpan Snarker|Prussia]] walks in and [[Moment Killer|

Line 210:
* A [[Running Gag]] in SM:TV Live's ''[[Friends]]'' parody ''Chums'': Dec and Cat are always interrupted when they are about to kiss by the doorbell.
* Watch the gag reel for ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]'', if anyone forgets their line and ends up just staring they will start moving in.
* ''[[Firefly (TV series)|Firefly]]'' in the episode "Objects in Space": It's taken [[The Stoic|Simon]] and [[Genki Girl|Kaylee]] [[Will They or Won't They?|the whole series]] to reach that moment. They're having a heart-to-heart. They're [[Held Gaze|staring]] into each other's eyes. They're inching closer. His hand starts to reach out to caress her cheek. They lean in for the kiss. [[Moment Killer|And then Book walks into them]].
{{quote|'''[[DVD Commentary|Joss Whedon]]:''' Oh, thank you very much, Book. Way to ruin the kiss!}}
* Played darkly and subtlely in ''[[Robin Hood (TV series)|Robin Hood]]''. Guy of Gisborne has just proposed to Marian and been accepted. He moves in for a kiss, but she looks tearful and uncertain, and both turn their heads away fractionally.

{{quote|"The Almost Kiss. Such a classic trope in romantic comedy. The concept I am about to reveal to you may be beyond your mortal comprehension, so listen carefully: ''Romantic Comedy'' is what happens when my domain and [[Moment Killer|Aphrodite’s]] intersect. The fact that she and I have never gotten along terribly well is the reason works in this genre so often fail at being either romantic or comical."
* Blake Belladonna and Yang Xiao Long of ''[[RWBY]]'' come within inches when they're reunited in episode 10 of volume 8. (They finally get past "almost" in the middle of volume 9.)
== Western Animation ==
* ''[[Ben 10:
** Gwen and Kevin have an Almost Kiss in the episode "Darkstar Rising",
** [[Running Gag|Well,that happened a lot of times already...]] Two of the many Almost Kiss moments happened in "The Transmogrification of Eunice" (Ben and Eunice, of course) and "Revenge of the Swarm" (Ben and Elena).
* ''[[Code Lyoko]]'': In episode "Routine", Yumi's and Ulrich's [[First Kiss]] after Ulrich saves her from falling into the Digital Sea is interrupted when Aelita resets time.
