Line 117:
* Less a parody, more an affectionate homage: Season 3 of ''[[Glee]]'' saw a classic boyband routine performed in the choir room. Interestingly, the sequence involved some revision of the typical boyband tropes; though the lineup included a Heartthrob (Sam), a Bad Boy (Puck), an Older Brother (Mike), a Cute One (Kurt) and a Shy One (Artie), the leader of the group was definitely Artie - partly because the song was a step in his courtship of Sugar Motta, and partly as a reference to Kevin McHale's boyband career.
* Philippine gag show ''Bubble Gang'' has come up with two. The first is the Sex Balls (a parody of the Sex Bomb Girls), who made parodies of novelty songs and theme songs from TV shows. The second is D'Wonder Boys, a parody of K-pop boy bands, fawned over by fangirls who squeal at the smallest things and completely repetitive lyrics.
* Ciel Phantomhive in the ''[[Kuroshitsuji]]'' manga assembles from the [[Cast Full of Pretty Boys]] his own manufactured boyband Funtom 5 to play in his Funtom Company's new Funtom Music Hall. The band members are made to adapt various artificial personality quirks except for Cheslock who was deemed to be already weird enough.
