* ''[[Brady Bunch Spin -Offs|A Very Brady Sequel]]'': 'Roy Martin' is an alias used by the bad guy.
** Although it should be pointed out that only the name 'Martin' was canon from the [[Brady Bunch]] pilot refering to her as Carol Martin. The ''Sequel'' writers decided to call him 'Roy'.
* Roy Batty from ''[[Blade Runner]]'', although it's hardly clear that Roy Batty is evil, so this may be an aversion, or, from a certain point of view, a subversion.
Line 25:
* ''[[Emergency]]'': Subverted with hero Roy Desoto, although he does tend to take a back seat to fellow paramedic John Gage.
* ''[[Evil Roy Slade]]'': The Trope Namer
* One episode of ''[[M*A*S*H (TVtelevision)|Mash]]'' featured an annoying visiting surgeon from the 8063rd named Roy who was traded to the 4077th for Hawkeye.
* ''[[McHales Navy]]'': Capt Binghamton's assistant Lt Leroy Carpenter, making him the Butt Monkey's Butt Monkey.
* Subverted with ''[[NCIS (TV)|NCIS]]'', with its protangonist Leroy Jethro Gibbs. Or maybe not, considering how he prefers Jethro over Leroy.
* ''[[The Office (TV)|The Office]]'': Pam's fiance and Jim's rival.
* ''[[Wings (TV series)|Wings]]''
 
 
Line 35:
* ''Bad, Bad, Leroy Brown''

* [[Leeroy Jenkins Video|Leeeeeeeeeroy Jenkins]]!
 
== [[Newspaper Comics]] ==
* ''[[USU.S. Acres]]'' and Roy the Rooster.
* ''[[Garfield]]'' used Evil Roy Gato as a persona. ('Gato' means cat in Spanish, incidentally).
 
Line 48 ⟶ 51:
== [[Web Comics]] ==
* Averted with Roy from ''[[Order of the Stick]]'', who is the leader of the adventuring party and a fairly nice guy.
 
 
== Western Animation ==
* Subverted with Roy from the U.S. Acres segments on ''[[Garfield and Friends]]''. He may be a [[Jerkass]] who delights in pranking the other farm animals, but he still does what he can to help them out.
* Leroy from the ''[[Lilo and Stitch]]'' [[Series Finale]] ''Leroy And Stitch'' is the prime epitome of this trope, as Jumba was forced to bring him back, under orders from his former science partner, Doctor Hamsterviel.
* One episode of ''[[Fat Albert and Thethe Cosby Kids]]'' featured 'Cool Roy' who liked to vandlize traffic signs.
* Roy is the human version of the hated Poochie staying with ''[[The Simpsons (Animationanimation)|The Simpsons]]'' in the episode ''Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie''.
