Cutaway Gag: Difference between revisions

* The General Auto Insurance television commercials has a character who is a "General" for obvious reasons. Not so obvious is the reason for the penguin sidekick.

 

* Used and explicitly [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] in one episode of ''[[Cromartie High School]]'', which suddenly cuts to a sequence titled [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|"Let's Strum A Guitar In The Mountains!"]], at the end of which the man playing the guitar throws the instrument up in the air, screaming ''"Oh my god, this is a non-sequitur!"''

* Seen in ''[[Inuyasha]]'' when the group are trying to stop two warring brothers from tearing up the countryside. When Inuyasha gets side-tracked complaining about how warring brothers cause needless hassle for everyone and then defensively claiming that he and Sesshoumaru have nothing in common with these two brothers, Sango - in a moment of complete randomness - wonders if Sesshoumaru's the kind of person who sneezes when he's talked about. Cue the momentary Cutaway Gag which doubles as a [[Sneeze Cut]] to reveal that it's actually Jaken who sneezes on Sesshoumaru's behalf and that he really dislikes this aspect of being Sesshoumaru's servant. Then the normal plotline continues.
