Line 130:
* ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'',
** Homer, as a prison snitch, gets things like a plasma TV, a "Snitch Life" bling chain, and even a Segway from his "Mother".
** Another episode has Mayor Sideshow Bob sent to Minimum Security Prison for rigging his election. Per its name, it looks more like a college campus than a prison. Given that the local prison Harvard rowing team asked him to join up for a match against Princeton, its likely that the place is a prison for "white collar" criminals like corrupt business men or, in Bob's case, a corrupt politician. This is confirmed in "Sideshow Bob's Last Gleaming", where another inmate is 60% owner of Channel 6.
** In another episode, when Kirk Van Houten was arrested, Chief Wiggum told him the cell he's going to wouldn't be so cold and damp as Van Houten's apartment. In fact, a normal prison cell felt like the trope for him.
* In ''[[Home Movies]]'', Brendon's class is taken on a field trip to a prison as part of a [[Scare'Em Straight]] program. However, they took them to a white collar prison, which the kids considered akin to this trope. Coach McGuirk even remarked that the cells were better than his apartment.
