Line 86:
* ''[[Lexx]]'': Robot head 790 has himself sewn to the shoulder of a largely mindless cyborg drone, with whose mutterings he grows so annoyed that he punches himself in the other face.
* In the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' episode "[[Doctor Who/Recap/S31 E04 The Time of Angels|The Time of Angels]]", the Doctor tells an anecdote about a planet of two-headed people.
{{quote| '''Doctor:''' Very relaxed, sort of cheerful. That's from having two heads. You're never short of a snog with an extra head. [...] Then they started having laws against self-marrying and what was that about? But that's the church for you. [...]<br />
'''Amy Pond:''' Church had a point, if you think about it. The divorces must have been ''messy''. }}
** {{spoiler|Of course, this relaxed conversation becomes extremely important later in the episode...}}
* ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]''. Becomes the subject of an [[Incredibly Lame Pun]] when Spike takes on a reptile demon.
{{quote| "All right, heads up! [demon lifts up three heads. Spike gets an [[Oh Crap]] look] Heads it is then."}}
 
 
== Music ==
* The eponymous conjoined twins of the fictional band [[Evelyn Evelyn]] usually get along fine, but their self-titled song "[http://www.evelynevelyn.com/lyrics/evelyn.html Evelyn Evelyn]" explores their disagreements:
{{quote| ''We grew up so very close.<br />
A parasite needs a host.<br />
I'm only trying to do what is best for us.<br />
Well, I never asked for this, I never wanted this.<br />
All that I want is some time to myself.<br />
Looking in your eyes, I'm coming home.<br />
Just get away from me, please just stop touching me.<br />
You're always trying to be somebody else.<br />
Now I realize I'm not alone.'' }}
* [[Insane Clown Posse]] mention this in the song "Down With The Clown"
{{quote| "What if I grew another fuckin' head?<br />
And his name was violent....Ed?<br />
And he'd headbutt me every time I cussed.<br />
I would need two microphones when I bust.<br />
Would you show me love even with another head?<br />
Or would you be like: 'FUCK YOU AND ED'!" }}
 
Line 143:
** Blizzard actually had an April Fools joke about the ogres, claiming that two-headed ogres would be playable in ''[[World of Warcraft]]'' as a sort of cooperative character. That is to say, two players each control a head, and both control movement. This being an April Fools joke, they of course emphasized all the features that made this playstyle incredibly inconvenient.
** In ''[[Warcraft]] 2'' the heads would argue with each other if you kept clicking on them ("This way!" "No, this way!"). When they are upgraded to Ogre Magi, they start talking in unison, get their crap together, and learn magic powers.
{{quote| '''First Head:''' We're not brainless anymore.<br />
'''Second head:''' ''I've'' got the brain!<br />
'''First Head:''' Nuh uh! }}
** There's actually one boss whose two heads argue with each other in a ''Burning Crusade'' dungeon. The fact that each head has a separate aggro table frequently makes this an example of [[That One Boss]] for groups that bring a lot of [[Squishy Wizard|squishy]] characters.
{{quote| "You always hungry -- that's why we so fat!"<br />
"I want to kill this one. Get back here, you idiot!"<br />
"I... hate... you..." }}
** There are also two bosses (Reliquary of Souls in ''Burning Crusade'', and Devourer of Souls in ''Wrath of the Lich King'') that are literally giant floating heads with three faces. They both have different voice actors, abilities, personas and even genders for each face.
Line 161:
* The Ettin in ''[[Stonekeep]]'' has two heads with very distinct personalities.
* ''[[Digital Devil Saga]]'' has Heat's avatar Agni and Argilla's avatar Prithivi (which are located on the breasts). Heat also gives us this great line.
{{quote| "Two heads means you will be devoured twice as fast."}}
* ''[[Super Mario]]''
** Averted in both ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' where all Thwomps, for some reason, have a face on the other side of their body, yet both are constantly scowling.
Line 180:
* Donna and Diana from ''[[Dungeons and Denizens]]''. Two heads on one hellhound body, hinted to be the result of momma dallying with Cerberus. Distinct to the point of considering each other sisters... and romantic rivals for the attentions of the same orc (who wisely does his best to avoid them).
* DJ Tonja in ''Muertitos'' doesn't so much have two heads as a second mouth on the back of her head, but the second mouth has its own personality, and often argues with the front face.
{{quote| '''Tonja:''' Could you at least stop eating while we're on the air? God, it's your fault we're so fat.<br />
'''Coochie:''' Hey, YOU'RE fat, baby, I'M just a mouth on the back of your head. }}
* Isp, Osp, and Mosp in ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]''.
Line 186:
* Minerva the [[Hell Hound|Cerberus]] in ''[[Spinnerette]]'' has three heads, each one with its own look and personality. The left head is the cute one, the right head is the brash, fiesty one, and the middle head is the mature, moderate one. Interestingly, rather than being presented as three individuals sharing one body, it's more like Minerva is a single person who's thoughts are the same for all three heads, just filtered through different personality traits.
** Though we see her heads talking to one another a few times in the book-only [http://krakowstudios.com/spinnerette/2012/01/09/01092012/ Issue #9].
{{quote| Middle: "I knew this dress was too short..."<br />
Left: "Compared to the [[Chainmail Bikini|metal bikini]]?" }}
* Zeni and Nadi Tweeling of ''[[Contemplating Reiko]]'' are dicephalic conjoined twins. Much of the comic's rare bouts of lighter humor revolve around the issues of two girls with one body, or their strange episodes of obliviousness to their condition.
Line 226:
* On ''[[Jimmy Two-Shoes]]'', a two-headed man is one of the many citizens of Miseryville. [[The Legions of Hell|He does not look out of place]].
* The ''[[Family Guy]]'' episode "Road to the Multiverse" features a universe where everyone has two heads: one happy, one sad.
{{quote| '''Happy!Tom:''' The President's dog just had puppies!<br />
'''Sad!Tom:''' But there was a plane crash. }}
* In the ''[[Johnny Test]]'' episode "Li'l Johnny", Johnny runs into Susan and Mary's lab to find them as two heads on one body. Their expanation? [[Noodle Incident|Don't ask!]]
{{quote| '''Mary:''' [[Mind Screw|So is your head on my body or is my head on your body?]]}}
** [[Fridge Brilliance|Well, the body has a moon on it, so Susan's is on Mary's.]]
* The ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' episode "Feeling Pinkie Keen" sees the girls getting attacked by a four-headed hydra. Amusingly enough, one of the heads appears to be a little slow on the uptake; the other three heads roar in unison, for example, but the fourth one doesn't join in until it realizes what the other heads are doing.
