Line 6:
* Deconstructed in ''[http://nequ.deviantart.com/art/Sonny-Gets-Mad-Scienced-144594113 Sonny Gets Mad Scienced]''. {{spoiler|For all his knowledge about his situation, Sonny's Genre Savvy doesn't actually help him escape. He just happens to be the lucky person on whom the [[Mad Scientist]]'s experiment worked. Reconstructed when he knows ''exactly'' what to do with the henchmen and the scientist when he gets free.}}
* In ''[[Survival of the Fittest]]'', v4 character Bounce had been a massive fan of the series prior to her own involvement in it and as such references things like [[The Power of Friendship]] never working in SOTF and the fact that, as an unfit, unpopular nerd, there's no point in her making plans because people like her never stand a chance.
* In ''[[Astoundingly Unoriginal Adventure]]'' text adventure style forum game, the character "[[Meaningful Name|BITTER CYNIC]]" (BC) is alarmingly this. He actually makes reference to TV Tropes and says he [[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|spends a lot of time on it]].
* Britanick's ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbhrz1-4hN4&feature=grec_index Trailer For Every Oscar-Winning Movie Ever.]''
* When Fritz von Baugh sowed seeds of dissent in ''[[Kickassia]]'', planting evidence that [[The Nostalgia Critic]] was planning to blow everyone up with dynamite, [[The Cinema Snob]] saw right through that plan, noting that those with brains prey on the brainless. {{spoiler|[[Subverted Trope|Then it turns out that]] [[Wrong Genre Savvy|Critic]] ''[[Wrong Genre Savvy|did]]'' [[Wrong Genre Savvy|order the dynamite.]]}}
* In [[We Are Our Avatars (Roleplay)|We Are Our Avatars]], Awe Striker and Ozbourne, due to being humans from worlds very much like ours, often have familiarity with the fictional universes that many of the other characters come from. This is fairly common amongst most [[Author Avatar|Author Avatars]], but a lot of other characters happen to be as well.
* This is the source of most of the jokes in the X-Men Flash cartoon "Dark Phoenix Rising". Cyclops references Jean's habit of constantly returning from the dead, the need to [[Wolverine Publicity|put Wolverine on every X-Men team possible]] and the fact that another group of villains will likely attack while they're being distracted with Dark Phoenix. In "Death Becomes Them", Kitty Pryde asks if the team is counting alternate timelines when they discuss which of them have died and come back to life.
* In "84 Egg Sandwich", the employee manning the drive-thru station figures out that the people (Harvey and the gang) are ordering something for an [[EPICMEALTIME]] project because of how much they're buying.
* Dana from ''[[Echo Chamber]]'', in contrast to [[Genre Blind|Tom]].
* [[Cin Wicked]] tries to avoid the other reviewers in ''[[Project Million]]'', stating that he "doesn't want to get involved in crazy shenanigans". He was right to do so.
* Cheapus from [[The Cheap Arse Film Review]] has a moment in the Christmas special:
{{quote|Cheapus: All right, plot has found me. I'm an [[Web Original|Internet reviewer]], it was bound to happen some time.}}
* ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series]]'': "Gee, another predictable card tournament. I wonder if I'll win!"
* ''[[Skippy's List|Skippys List]]'' has examples:
