Line 126:
* ''[[Ashes to Ashes]]'' DCI Keats ''loves'' doing this with his glasses - mainly to look cool, but also to underscore how much more human he appears without the glasses.
* A variant was used on ''Airwolf'', where Stringfellow Hawke would pull off his glasses and not say a thing.
* In ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'', the Tenth Doctor does this on occasion.
* In a ''[[Mr. Show]]'' sketch, a documentary show host takes his glasses off whenever he makes a statement. When the camera cuts back to him, they're back on again.
* One episode of ''[[Reno 911 (TV)|Reno 911]]'' had Dangle [[No Fourth Wall|taking a dramatic pause]] then lampshading it. Everybody else hams it up for the rest of the scene, with Jones doing the [[Glasses Pull]] apropos of nothing.
Line 152:
* ''[[Bigger Than Cheeses]]'': [http://www.biggercheese.com/index.php?comic=701 This infamous parody strip] singlehandedly catapulted the ''CSI Miami'' opening across the internet in a vengeful maelstrom of [[Image Boards|infernal]] [[Memetic Mutation|memetic virulence]]. Note the [[Crowning Moment of Funny|second pair of sunglasses]] in the third panel.
* Subsequently done by [[Memetic Mutation|Rick Astley]] in [http://xkcd.com/524/ this] ''[[Xkcd (Webcomic)|Xkcd]]'' strip.
** And by ''Isaac Newton'' in [http://xkcd.com/626/ this one], complete with an even worse pun than the first and [[Shout -Out]] to ''[[CSI: Miami]]''.
* Tedd [http://egscomics.com/?date=2008-06-13 in this] ''[[El Goonish Shive (Webcomic)|El Goonish Shive]]'' strip.
** Although the removal of the [[Nerd Glasses]] was actually a major plot point, not just pointless drama. Tedd uses those glasses to preserve a [[Ambiguous Gender|modicum of his masculinity]], since he has very [[Bishonen|feminine,]] [[What Beautiful Eyes!|pretty eyes]]. That was the first time in... what, seven years?... that he showed his eyes to someone.
* The park ranger in [http://www.daisyowl.com/comic/2009-02-26 this] ''[[Daisy Owl]]'' strip.
* Parson does this in ''[[Erfworld]]'', while announcing "...the ''last'' of the last stands." The golem behind him immediately [[Shout -Out|shouts out]] "YyyyeeEAAAAhhhh!"
* Christian Weston Chandler [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9nkN1AHKD0 does this frequently] in ''Webcomic/Sonichu''.
* Used in ''[[Dead Metaphor]]'' here[http://deadmetaphor.comicdish.com/index.php?pageID=9\] Complete with a YEEAAAH! on an iphone!
