Line 246:
** Angel lampshades the first one by pointing out to Doyle that yeah, he knows, he was there.
* ''[[Smallville]]'': Chloe stops Clark from leaving so that she can remind him of the very reason that he's leaving, which both he and the audience are well aware of, just so that she can spill a secret to one of Lex's henchmen, secretly listening. This isn't surprising as Chloe is saddled with about 90% of the show's exposition in every episode anyway, so it was only a matter of time before she got sloppy.
** She does it again, even worse, with the guy who can become invisible. When they have figured out he's evil and Clark needs to stop him and all, Chloe thinks he might have figured Clark's [[Achilles' Heel]] since he can become invisible, so she asks him ''and he is there and finds out''. Quite infuriating because she asked "Are you sure he ''doesn't know you feel bad around meteor rocks''?" instead of the safer "Are you sure he doesn't know ''your weakness''?". And made double infuriating by the fact that she had about 2 seasons or so calling them "Kryptonite", and only went back to "meteor rocks" for ''that one scene''.
* [[House (TV series)|House]] almost always explains to either his team or to [[Ho Yay|Wilson]] or to the patients just what and how they were dying. It's perhaps justified by House having an obsession with this, and in one episode, he gets in a bad mood when a dying patient doesn't want to hear what she's dying of. This gives him the [[Eureka Moment|epiphany]] he needed to solve the case and cure her.
** Mocked in an episode where House stops a surgery by spitting all over the sterile equipment; in case [[Viewers are Morons|the dimmer members of the audience]] didn't get the significance, [[Mr. Exposition|Nurse Exposition]] points out "There's no way we can do the surgery now!" The exasperated surgeon gives her a withering look and yells "YA THINK?!?"
