Line 149:
* In [[Charlie Brooker]]'s ''[[Newswipe]]'', there's a bit where a list of the G20 bodies scroll across the screen, too fast to read. Slowing it down reveals that it says "..SPAIN THE NETHERLANDS THE NEW PARTNERSHIP FOR AFRICA'S DEVELOPMENT BOTTOM LAND NO NOT REALLY WE MADE THAT ONE UP AND YOU BOTHERED TO PAUSE THIS TO READ THE PHRASE "BOTTOM LAND" WHAT A DISMAL LITTLE PRICK YOU ARE THE ASSOCIATION OF SOUTH EAST ASIAN NATIONS THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION..."
* ''[[Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'' pretty much abuses this trope and it's one of the main reasons that makes it [[Better on DVD]].
* At the end of the ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' episode "Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind", a character is seen in a classroom opening up a book {{spoiler|which is supposed to be about assassination techniques}}. The page is shown just long enough for the audience to parse a more on-topic chapter heading, but most of the other text consists of the lyrics to [[The Beatles (band)|"Happiness Is A Warm Gun"]].
* In the season 1 ''[[Glee]]'' episode Hairography, Quinn Fabray and [[I'm a Man, I Can't Help It|Noah "Puck" Puckerman]] get into a fight over the fact that Puck was [[Ripped from the Headlines|sexting]] Santana Lopez during a babysitting gig with Quinn. The [http://videogum.com/img/thumbnails/photos/glee_1_12/8.jpg freeze-frame] of Quinn searching his phone for evidence reveals that Puck might be the worse sexter ever; one sent message features the creative and eloquent line, "You so hot and stuff and stuff."
* In an episode of ''[[Trailer Park Boys]]'', a character reads a written note aloud as the camera focuses on it. After he is done, the camera pans down slightly for a split second to reveal [[Unreadably Fast Text|extra text]], which says "If you're freeze-framing this on DVD, you're fucked!"
