Invisible Main Character: Difference between revisions

== [[Live Action TV]] ==

* For most of ''[[Power Rangers Dino Thunder]]'', Jason David Frank (playing Dr. Tommy Oliver) was not available for filming, necessitating that he be rendered audio-only for much of the show's run, first by encasing his character in a block of amber, then by rendering him unable to remove his Ranger Suit, and finally by turning him completely invisible.

* ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'':

** Spoofed in the episode "200", when Jack O'Neill becomes invisible, leading to a [[Hurricane of Puns]] and ultimately proves useless as he can no longer signal to his team ("Making hand signals here, people!"), leading to confusion all around. What makes the spoof even more delightful is that it was originally scripted in case Richard Dean Anderson wasn't available for filming... but he finally was, up to the point ''he acted as his own stand-up in a green suit'' for a scene involving special effects. The characters [[Lampshade Hanging|hung a big lampshade]] on this whole trope in the dialogue.

* ''[[Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius]]'': Jimmy did this, in a way, by creating shoes that make him run so fast that nobody can see him. He abuses this ability to play mean tricks on all his friends.

* ''[[Fairly Oddparents]]'': Timmy once wishes to make himself invisible to keep from being beat up by the school bully. He uses this opportunity to scare the entire student body.

* An odd variation happens in two episodes of ''[[South Park]]'', In one Cartman believes he is invisible/dead because everybody is intentionally ignoring him, and another has him use a fake superpower of invisibility. In both episodes, everyone but him knows that he is not invisible.
