* ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'' features Disco Stu, a recurring joke character who is eternally stuck in [[The Seventies|the mid-1970s]] (though he [[Lampshadeslampshade]]s it in a moment of [[Character Development]]).
** C. Montgomery Burns, whose values and [[Have a Gay Old Time|vocabulary]] are still stuck on October 27, 1929 (just before Black Tuesday and the start of [[The Great Depression]]). His antiquated demeanor and ideas are a recurring source of humor in the series, as is his on-again off-again ignorance of history after the 1930s (he still thinks there's a Negro League in baseball...).
*** Even more bizarre, he scoffs at the idea of ''non-WASPs'' in the major leagues. (He's taken aback, for example, by a vintage baseball card showing Joe DiMaggio as a New York Yankee.)
