* ''[[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. |

* ''[[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.}} |

* 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. |
