* On [[Friends]], Ross asked Joey, "Didn't you read [[The Lord of the Rings]] in high school?" Joey responds, "No, I had ''sex'' in high school."
* Troy on ''[[Community]]'' when he is playing up [[The Jock]] part of his character is a classic example. God bless him, he is not the brightest bulb in the box.

'''Troy:''' ''(immediately)'' "Done." }}
* ''[[Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'' gives us STEVE HOLT!!! who has had to retake his final year of school twice.

* Most who are popular in ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]''. Played for laughs when Peter is forced to tutor [[Defrosting Ice Queen|Liz Allen]] in order to raise her grade.
{{quote| '''Liz''': Couldn't [[Jerk Jock|Flash]] tutor me instead?<br />

* An episode of ''[[The Replacements]]'' had Riley and Tasumi realize that guys fall head over heels for utterly stupid girls. They spend the episode trying to out-dumb one another, competing for the boys' attention.
* In ''[[The Simpsons]]'' episode "Bart of Darkness", the family gets a pool and Lisa instantly becomes popular; when her brain points out that they're just using her, she delivers the page quote. At the end of the episode, the kids abandon Lisa because Martin built an even larger pool, leaving her stranded at the bottom of a now-empty pool.
{{quote| '''Lisa:''' Huh? Hello? Hey, I'm stuck in here! I gotta think of a way to get out.<br />
'''Lisa's Brain:''' Well, well, well; look who's come crawling back. }}
