Line 31:
* [http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/One_Out_of_Ten_Doctors This] uncyclopedia article, supposing on the answer to what the one out of ten doctors do recommend (leeching and eye of newt for allergy medication and the like..)
* Parodied when ''[[The Goodies]]'' go into the advertising business in "It Might As Well Be String".

'''Graeme:''' That's right. Mind you, it did take us a long time to find the right nine doctors, woo hoo hoo (makes loony signal) ... and the elephants! }}
* ''[[Pearls Before Swine]]'' had a few comics where Pig introduced his friends, five doctors, four of which agreed on everything, the fifth of which always disagreed. This was for more than just chewing gum -- they went to a funeral, and while the first four were offering their condolences, the fifth one just said, "She's dead all right."
Line 42:
* "Nine out of ten sociopaths agree: You gotta see [[Animutation|Hyakugojyuuichi]]." How's that for meter?
* Yet another parody, in ''[[Sam and Max]]: Reality 2.0'':

'''Sam''': What did the fifth one do?
'''Max''': He kept sobbing, and saying, "Why can't we all just get along?" }}
* [[RoboCop]] [[Recycled: the Series|The Series]] has an interesting example, nine out of ten doctors ''employed by a [[Mega Corp]]'' recommend a drug, clearly in an attempt to invoke the trope.
Line 50:
** Another version: "9 out of 10 doctors agree: [[Tom Baker|Four]]'s scarf is too long."
* Colin Mochrie on ''[[Whose Line Is It Anyway?]]?'':

** Or how about: "Nine out ten doctors agree the tenth one should really chill out" (did I get that right)
* On February 15 2008, a news anchor on ''[[Royal Canadian Air Farce]]'' said, "A survey shows 51% of Canadians believe there is such a thing as love at first sight. The other 49% are men."
* A strip of ''[[9 Chickweed Lane]]'' showed a group of white-coated figures walking away from another whom they'd apparently just hanged (only his legs are shown, dangling from the top of the panel), and an onlooker remarking, "Nine out of ten doctors agreed."
* A humorous variant in ''[[Mass Effect 2]]'':

* Played for laughs in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood|Assassin's Creed Brotherhood]]'': a doctor who's treating your bullet wounds will mention that four out of five doctors would use leeches, lucky for you he's the fifth.
* That`s what happens to the 10th doctor [http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fhetbwvmhJw/TfrLZSSj8mI/AAAAAAAAD3k/h4fAN-z5Lt8/s1600/Dentista-2.jpg\]
