* In [[The Simpsons]], there's many examples, like:
** The [[Running Gag]] which hashad Mr. Burns forgetting who Homer iswas, though this was [[Characterisation Marches On|dropped mostly]] in later seasons.
** Homer just as often forgetting about Maggie. Sometimes referring her just as "the baby", other times forgetting about her completely.
* In [[Futurama]], the running gag was that Scruffy hashad to reintroducing himself to people. Just to the point that "I'm Scruffy, the Janitor" also became his [[Catch Phrase]]. In addition, the other characters are just as forgettable to him, since he doesn't remember them either.
* In [[South Park]], "The Last of the Meheecans" episode, where the boys play a Border Control rpg, and the Mexican side won. It takes a long time, until Cartman realizes they forgotten about Butters (and even then only because he can win as the Texan side). The others wonder how this happened, Craig [[Lampshaded|reminds them]] that Butters is easily forgettable.
* In [[As Told by Ginger]], Noelle was chosen to test the vanishing powder, mainly because she was not significant to miss. This was subverted later on, when it's reveal that Noelle is a cool [[Cloudcuckooland|cloudcuckoolander]] (by [[Freaky Is Cool|their standards]]) and became an [[Ascended Extra]] with more substance.
