Line 157:
* The narrator of ''[[Sheep in The Big City]]'' has so little fourth wall that he regularly appears on-camera in a recording studio. He interacts with the characters so often it's more noteworthy when they ''can't'' seem to hear him, has been fired, physically attacked...the list goes on.
* The narrator for the British cartoon ''[[Danger Mouse]]'' tended to break the fourth wall; sometimes complaining about the direction of the story or making atrocious puns (only to receive a phone call from the show's producers, telling him to cut it out). In "Once Upon A Timeslip" he developed reality warping powers: "It is now 12:15 as they..." (The landscape transforms into medieval England) "Look, I said 12:15 I didn't mean 1215 AD." The remainder of the episode became a Robin Hood parody. Another typical narration line from one episode:
{{quote| "Meanwhile... Look, is that all I have to say in this bit, 'meanwhile'? Well, I was on my tea break..."}}
* A ''[[Family Guy]]'' cutaway shows Peter narrating his own life:
{{quote| '''Peter:''' I walked into the kitchen and sat down at the table. I looked with a grimace at the questionable meal Lois had placed in front of me. Of course I would never tell her how disgusted I was with her cooking, but somehow I think she knew. Lois had always been full of energy and life, but lately I had begun to grow more aware of her aging: the bright exuberant eyes that I had fallen in love with were now beginning to grow dull and listless with the long fatigue of a weary life. ''(Lois knocks him out)'' I awoke several hours later in a daze.}}
* In [[Word Girl]], other than opening and closing each episode, the disembodied narrator oftentimes interacts with the tittular hero to help her and sometimes the villains, also.
