Somebody Else's Problem: Difference between revisions

** ''[[Sealab 2021]]'' does this a lot. In the pilot episode, "I, Robot," Quinn is trying to save Sealab from exploding—but everyone else is too busy with a [[Seinfeldian Conversation]] to help. In "Green Fever," zombies attack the station, but Debbie is too busy preparing her birthday party, Stormy and Sparks are busy chatting about steel pipes, etc. Exactly who is uncaring varies; in "No Waterworld," Quinn is too busy with his monster truck to help Debbie find out why all the water around the station has disappeared.

** In ''[[Space Ghost Coast to Coast]]'', Zorak and Moltar frequently get bored with Space Ghost's show, and decide their jobs on it are Somebody Else's Problem. Sometimes Space Ghost gets bored with his own show, and does the same thing.

** In "That Old Black Magic, every [[Exclusively Evil|anti-fairy]] escapes from prison, and Jorgen prepares to round them up. Then his shift ends, to which he responds "Your problem."

** The world gets taken over and heavily modified in every movie (twice in one of them) and the people act accordingly. Timmy usually makes an extravagant wish and somehow either everyone doesn't notice or is too stupid to understand what is happening.
