* In ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]'', Tobin Dax was one of these, as we see during Jadzia's ''zhian'tara'' ritual, where his personality is placed into O'Brien's body temporarily. Complete with being told to stop, and apologising for apologising.
* The Tenth Doctor, from ''[[Doctor Who]]''. So much so that "I'm sorry, I am so sorry." is pretty much his [[Catch Phrase]]. ''Well''... one of them. In his case, most of the time he's sorry to be the bearer of bad news, rather than sorry for any of the [[Jerkass]] things he's done.
Line 102:
* Sookie in ''[[True Blood]]''
* This was part of why Amanda Kimmel came in third in ''[[Survivor]]: China'', amongst [[Poor Communication Kills|other reasons]].
* AIn a clear case of playing up to the [[Canada, Eh?]] stereotype (sorry for mentioning it), a ''[[Royal Canadian Air Farce]]'' episode had then-Justice Minister Allan Rock apologizing for claims his government made about former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. He then kept appearing throughout the episode to apologize for such things as breaking election promises, fatty foods, long line-ups at bank machines, and all the cold weather they'd been having that winter. Finally, he apologized for making so many apologies and told the viewers that this would be the last governmental apology of the evening . . . "and for that, we are sorry."
* Quite a few of the characters from ''[[Gossip Girl]]'' are guilty of this, Serena being the worst. Chuck averted it for the first couple of seasons by hardly ''ever'' apologising for all the jerkass things he did, but come season three he started apologising as much - if not ''more'' - than everyone else.
* In ''[[Crownies]]'' Richard is constantly apologising "profusely" to Judge Walker, usually because he's brought in uncooperative witnesses. She lampshades it in one episode, while she's forcing him to copy by hand a list of prior convictions that he'd given her without a chance to properly format them, while dealing with a sprained wrist. He then informs her that his wrist was sprained in a bike accident on the way to her lecture two nights ago. She reveals that the ambulance that picked him up also dented her Prius. [[Crowning Moment of Funny|He apologises. Profusely]].
* Elizabeth on the ninth season of ''[[Hell's Kitchen]]''. [[Television Without Pity]]'s tagline for the episode in which she was eliminated read as follows: "Elizabeth's gone. She's sorry, you guys. She's so sorry. So sorry. Sorry sorry sorry! (Sorry.)"
