Line 2:
Not involving J-Lo in any way, unless she's playing the person doing it, a Mage In Manhattan situation where an evil character from a fantasy dimension enters our own with the intent of causing destruction. Hilarity ensues. [[Villains Blend in Better]], but they ''do'' still want to [[Take Over the World]], so such an appearance has a tendency to [[The Unmasqued World|blast any masquerade to pieces]].
 
Compare [[Welcome to The Real World Episode]], [[Refugee From TV Land]]. Usually involves [[Save Both Worlds]]. Not to be confused with [[Urban Fantasy]].

Line 47:
* ''[[Ace Lightning]]'', although the villains in question come from a video game rather than a fantasy dimension.
* ''[[Charmed]]'' has an example in the [[Evil Counterpart|"Evil Enchantress" clone of Paige]] from the S4 episode, appropriately titled "Paige from the Past."
* Subverted on ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]].'' One would ''assume'' this is why [[Physical God|Glory]] came to this world from her original Hell dimension, but actually she's been exiled and just wants to return home. Though, this ''would'' probably [[EndoftheThe End of the World Asas We Know It|destroy this and many other worlds]] in the process...
* In the last two seasons of [[Stargate SG-1]], Ba'al takes to hiding on earth as a businessman. He seems to develop quite a fondness for Earth culture, especially in [[Stargate: Continuum|Continuum]] where he contacts the President of the United States via a cell phone he had brought with him.
