Compare to [[And Knowing Is Half the Battle]] and [[End-of-Episode Silliness]]. Also compare with [[The Stinger]], where this is after the credits. Usually a variation of [[Every Episode Ending]].

Line 17:
* ''[[The Colbert Report]]'' has one last joke before the credits, generally delivered from Colbert's armchair by the fire (in reference to FDR's fireside chats). This can be anything from a one-liner to an entire scene.
** Also, ''[[The Daily Show]]'' has the Moment of Zen.
* ''[[The Avengers (TV series)|The Avengers]]'' used these kinds of tag scenes.
* ''[[The Brady Bunch]]'' always used these.
* ''[[The Big Bang Theory]]'' often [[Brick Joke|brings back a throw-away joke]] and expands on it, to humorous effect. In one episode, the gang {{spoiler|discusses how Sheldon's "species" reproduces. The theories are myriad, but later, Sheldon is shown eating large amounts of Thai food, eventually splitting into 2 identical copies. Leonard awakes from his dream, cursing the Mitosis Theory of Sheldon Reproduction.}}
* "What Did We Learn on the Show Tonight, Craig?" from [[The Late Late Show]].
* When the final joke happens after the credits it is known as [[The Stinger]]. ''[[
* The ''[[Blake's Seven|Blakes Seven]]'' episode "Children of Auron" where the premise is the almost total extermination of the Aurons, a race of empathic humanoids who are opposed to the evil Federation and are thus nominally allied with the protagonists. (Almost all alliances in ''Blake's Seven'' are nominal. It's their [[Planet of Hats|Hat]].) Approximately five thousand children and a few adults survive and the crew manage to find them a location where they will be safe and can rebuild the Auron race. At the episode's close Avon makes a joke about the society being a gigantic nursery, which in the context of recent genocide is in ''incredibly'' poor taste. Auron main character Cally is notably absent from the bridge at this point.
* ''[[Funky Squad]]''.
* Parodied in ''[[Police Squad!]]'', along with the freeze frame ending.
* Spoofed to hell and back in ''[[
* Parodied in ''[[That's My Bush]]''; "Oh, Laura! One of these days, I'm gonna punch you in the face!"

** Actually used with such regularity, an Adult Swim commercial was an entire montage of episode-concluding group laughing.
* ''The [[Transformers]]'' and ''[[G.I. Joe]]'' ended a fair number of episodes this way.
* Used in [[Whateley]]: The big idea. Nobody laughs, but it's an evil pun, though it spoils the culprit: {{spoiler|Migraine is somebody else's headache}}.
