Line 377:
*** Not to mention when he {{spoiler|breaks down and admits that he's nothing but a failure and that he doesn't deserve such loyal friends as Ed and Double-D.}} It's a HUGE step towards [[Character Development]] for Eddy and it causes him to become less of a jerk.
* Finn from ''[[Storm Hawks]]'', whilst a talented sniper, is nowhere near the ladies man he thinks he is.
** SubvertedNumber 2 in ''[[Codename: Kids Next Door]]''. Downplayed in that he is very competent, most of the time, but tends to overestimate even that. More than anything though, he thinks he's funnier than he actually is. He also has some [[Casanova Wannabe]] tendencies. It should be noted that he's [[Adorkable|more]] [[Nice Guy|likable]] than other examples.
* Number 2 in ''[[Codename: Kids Next Door]]''.
** [[Mirror Universe|Negaverse]]'s [[Evil Twin|Numbuh 4]], the [[Big Bad]] of the [[Mirror Universe]] episode, who despite being an hypercompetent villain, he's also an [[Smug Snake]] [[Dirty Coward]]. Normal Numbuh 4 shows some of this traits, but to a lesser extent.
** Subverted in that he is very competent, most of the time, but tends to overestimate even that. More than anything though, he thinks he's funnier than he actually is.
** Number 4 is a better example.
*** Actually used by Numah 4 in a [[Mirror Universe]] episode, when it's revealed that the [[Big Bad]] is [[Evil Twin|alternate version of himself.]]. Numbah 4 realizes that if his counterpart is a hypercompetent villain, then he must also be a [[Dirty Coward]].
* Cartman from ''[[South Park]]'', though he displays a number of tropes at a number of different times.
* Kent Powers from ''[[Quack Pack]]'' was presumably based on the original Ted Baxter.
