* Brian in ''[[Family Guy]]'' has a nasty tendency to be a huge hypocrite. He claims he likes women for their personalities but we only ever see him dating bimbos, and even then only in short-term relationships. He has plenty of liberal opinions but we never see him DO anything about them. He has no obvious job and just leeches off the Griffin family. He drinks and smokes quite heavily. In "Dial Meg For Murder" he voices his opinion that the prison system has turned the innocent Meg into a hardened criminal but it's obvious that nobody, including him, went to visit her during the three months she was in prison. Quagmire eventually [["The Reason You Suck" Speech|calls him out]] on how he really can be a prick. Glenn points out he himself has plenty of problems, but at least he ''admits'' them.
** The fact that Quagmire gave that speech at all is
** He did once hold the Mayor hostage over the issue of same sex marriage.
* Hank often has this problem in ''[[King of the Hill]]''. For instance, in "The Man Who Shot Cane Skretteberg", he criticizes a trio of teenagers for being disrespectful and rude to their elders, right after being rude and disrespectful himself to his elderly neighbor Ted "Pops" Popacito.
* ''[[The Legend of Korra]]'' has [[Big Bad|Amon]], who despite being the leader of a powerful [[Muggle Power|anti-bending]] movement called the Equalists, {{spoiler|can take a person's bending away. But to do that, he appears to use "energybending", which is the oldest form of bending.}}
* ''[[Adventure Time]]'' is chock full of this, played for comedy.
