* [[wikipedia:Archer (season 9)|''Archer: Danger Island'']] features an [[Intellectual Animal|intelligent]] parrot who is called 'Crackers', and is [[Polly Wants a Microphone|more chatty]] than your average parrot, being able to hold [[Talking Animal|full conversations]] with the human characters. He provides [[Funny Animal|comic relief]], and likes to [[Partially-Civilized Animal|drink alcohol]]. The season is set in Polynesia, but Crackers is a [[wikipedia:Scarlet macaw|scarlet macaw]], which are from [[Misplaced Wildlife|south America]]. His chattiness is a source of bafflement for many humans he encounters, a fact which is [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] early in the first episode.
* ''[[The Real Ghostbusters]]'' episode "Sea Fright" had the heroes battle a crew of [[Ghost Pirate]]s, led by Captain Jack Higgins, who had a ''zombie'' parrot that drove him crazy. Higgins said sarcastically he'd kill it "if it weren't already dead."
* In an episode of ''[[ThundercatsThunderCats (1985 series)|ThundercatsThunderCats]]'', Captain Cracker was a robot [[Space Pirate]]. Not the most loyal example of this Trope; after Cracker and his crew were arrested, it suggested Mandora have Cracker boiled in oil.
