Line 62:
== Western Animation ==
* ''[[Batman: The Animated Series|Batman the Animated Series]]'' had minor baddie "Baby" Dahl, a former starlet who wasn't able to find work as a serious actress after her show was cancelled because she's [[Older Than They Look|stuck in the body of a little girl]].
* One episode of ''[[Bonkers]]'' had a Former Child Star trying to pass himself off as [[Mickey Mouse]].
* ''[[Static Shock]]'' had a one-shot villain named Replay who was a former child star with [[Me's a Crowd|self-duplication]].
Line 70:
** This could also apply to supporting character Dr. Billy Quizboy.
** One of the recurring themes in the show is that this ends up happening to pretty much ''all'' "Boy Adventurers" when they grow up. [[Jonny Quest]] himself, for example, is now a paranoid junkie. Rusty also attends a therapy session that features a [[Batman|Robin]] like former sidekick with an eating disorder, an [[Astro Boy (manga)|Astro Boy]] looking robot with anger management problems, and two [[Hardy Boys]] like former boy detectives who almost certainly killed their father. The whole experience actually leads Rusty to realize that by the standards of his peers he made out pretty good.
