Line 296:
** And another aversion to the trope that unlike most male witnesses - [[Lex Luthor]] and [[The Joker]] continue their negotiation, [[Unusually Uninteresting Sight|not paying an iota of attention to the carnage]].
* ''[[Justice League (animation)|Justice League Unlimited]]'' unless it's a robotic or monstrous foe.
** One episode featured a lengthy, violent, conspicuously [[The Hit Flash|HitFlash-free]] fight between Supergirl and her evil clone
**
▲** However, this was later one-upped by the episode "Grudge Match," whose entire plot can be summed up as "We force gorgeous women to wrestle for half an hour." Featuring members like Black Canary (aka The Blonde Bombshell), Huntress, and Vixen, and culminating with a four-on-one match against Wonder Woman (who, of course, dominates), the fights were actually ''marketed'' as cat fights in-universe as a way to cash in through the "Glamor Slam". It even ends with Huntress and Black Canary (who had a physical and verbal altercation in a prior episode) about to fight again—just for the hell of it. And to think they say these shows aren't made for the fanboys.
* ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'': "Date With Destiny" featured a classic cat fight between Starfire and [[Meaningful Name|Kitten]] on the prom's dessert table. Tip: Never date a guy with a girlfriend who can shoot lasers out of her eyes.
** Don't forget
* On ''[[Kim Possible]]'', Kim fights all her own battles, against male and female bad guys, as she's really the only combatant on her team. However, the only human opponent who ever even comes close to really landing a blow is the villainess Shego. The guys do ''try'', but she's simply too good for them. These fights are generally played straight, but considering that one episode included the two ''mud wrestling'', it's safe to say that the powers that be are [[Fan Service|aware of the appeal]].
** One of [[The Movie|the movies]] had them in evening
* ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'': A training session shortly turns into a mud-wrestling match between Katara (water) and Toph (earth—earth+water=mud). At this point, the creators have all but abandoned any subtlety with regards to [[Fan Service]], having moved the characters to adopt local disguises that show a bit more skin (
* On ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'', there is an arcade at the Kwik-E-Mart called "Catfight", with such moves as "hairpull".
** Also mentioned on "Tennis the Menace" where Homer thinks that tennis is "the sport where chicks whale on each other" (which is foxy-boxing) and in "Lisa on Ice" (the episode where Lisa joins the hockey team after getting a notice stating that she's failing gym) where Homer tells Lisa that, [[As the Good Book Says...|according to the Bible]], girls should stick to girl sports, such as hot-oil wrestling and foxy-boxing.
