* ''Once Upon a Time, Man'' ("Il était une fois l'homme") was a multiple nationality and educational cartoon,from 80's and about History (as a serious ''[[Histeria!]]!''). The credits were Abridged History, and future of humanity was already told [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNURUGCOQ5I at the end:] mens running away with rockets and then, Ka-boom.
* An episode of ''[[Pinky and The Brain]]'' had the destruction of the Earth at the end of the episode, but it's all right...everyone had already moved to Brain's papier-mache replica.
* ''[[Re BootReBoot]]'' had an episode where this happened inside a game. While not world ending, it still pissed off Bob since he was ''inside'' the planet when binomes triggered it. Bob chews them out after barely escaping, then lectures everyone else.
* In the ''[[Kim Possible]]'' episode "Car Alarm", Shego seems to [[Depending on the Writer|graduate to]] [[Omnicidal Maniac]] by hoping to use a rocket car she and Motor Ed stole in order to use its full powered rocket boost to destroy the planet. Ed on the other hand just wanted to use it to drive around with Shego as arm candy.
* ''[[Batman: The Brave And The Bold|Batman the Brave And The Bold]]'': The teaser for "Joker: The Vile and the Villainous!" ends with Joker pressing the button on the Omega warhead. Which blows up the Earth.
* ''[[The Little Mermaid]]'': King Triton blows up the model of the planet Earth in Ariel's lair, along with the other of Ariel's human things.
* The French cartoon ''Once Upon a Time... Space'' has a type of warship used by the androids of planet Yama that combine to form one larguer star-shaped vessel with enough firepower to destroy a planet.

* The ending of the ''[[I Am Weasel]]'' episode "The Hole" had this, due to I.R. Baboon plugging up a huge hole that turned out to be a ground-level volcano (complete with buildings, cars and a plate of ''pork butts and taters'' flying from the explosion). The only survivors left are Weasel, his local assistant and Baboon, on a very small fragment of land left from the blast, but then Baboon gets in his car and ''drives off the edge to his death''.
