Line 39:
* One [[Dork Age|later]] ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' short called "Daffy's Inn Trouble" features the trope. In one scene, Daffy (in drag) decides to mime to a song on a record to lure patrons into his new inn, only for the record to start skipping. Once he's caught, Daffy attempts to do a quick dance before the would-be customers began throwing produce at him.
* ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'': Perry is undercover masquerading as scientist Dr. Lloyd Wexler at an evil science convention in Britain, but when Doofenshmirtz makes Perry read from his autobiography, he almost gets caught since platypi can't speak (well in anything but that growling noise Perry usually makes). Thankfully he just happened to have a CD player and a audiobook version of said autobiography to lip sync to, until it randomly started skipping.

'''Doofenshmirtz:''' Hmm, that's funny. I don't remember you saying "spec" so many times. }}
* ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'': In "Gary Takes a Bath", Gary plants a record player with a shadow similar to himself on a tree with his meowing playing on it. When Spongebob pours water on it, it breaks and starts skipping.
* In another ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' short, "Pigs in a Polka", the Big Bad Wolf tries to fool the [[Three Little Pigs]] by disguising himself as a Gypsy woman playing the violin. One of the pigs discovers the record player hidden behind his back and switches the record over to an upbeat polka, causing the wolf to literally dance out of his costume.
* Part of a gag in ''[[Animaniacs]]'' where the Warners are chasing down the Wally Llama to ask him something:
