Line 62:
* Tommy Saxondale in Steve Coogan's ''[[Saxondale]]'' has a bit of this going on; an ex-roadie from [[The Seventies]] convinced he's still bucking the system, he's a bit stuck in the past and not quite the rebellious spirit he thinks he is.
* Neil of ''[[The Young Ones]]'' dressed and behaved like a hippie well into the 1980s, and once stubbornly declared that "Flares are coming back in! I read it in my horoscope!"
* Episode three of ''[[Being Human (UK)]]'' gave us Gilbert, dead since 1985 and less than willing to move on [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxgiHvZd3Lg in more ways than one.]
* In ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'''s pilot episode, Buffy recognizes a vampire by his disco-era clothing.

Line 108:
* The ''[[Wario Ware]]'' series has the identical but seemingly unrelated Jimmy T. and Jimmy P. The former's parents, brother, and sister joined him in later games.
* A minor character in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' is a Disco Dan of indeterminate species with a French accent who flirts with Goombella. Even more random than usual for the Mario-verse.
* Disco Kid in ''[[Punch -Out!!]]'', although it can be argued that the game actually takes place in the '70s, meaning that Disco Kid grew up during the days of disco.
* ''[[Serious Sam]] I'' and ''II'' have Dancing Denzell and Groovy Gregory as characters player can choose.
* Toni, the Flashback FM DJ in ''[[Grand Theft Auto III]]''. People ask her if she remembers anything after the 70s and the 80s, and she doesn't, but she also thinks there isn't anything worth remembering after those times. You also hear her in ''Vice City'' (set in the 80s) as the DJ of Flash FM, so... yeah.
