Line 235:
** Or come for the horror tropes, stay for the humor and characterization.
** One feels compelled to throw in a quote from the show directly referencing the Trope title (though, of course, not the trope itself):
{{quote| '''Xander:''' Sunnydale: Come for the food, stay for the dismemberment.<br />
'''Nancy:''' There's food? }}
* ''[[Angel]]'': Come for the sexy vampire and the generally sexy cast, but stay for the well-done and intriguing [[Story Arc|Story Arcs]] and some random humor sprinkled in.
Line 481:
* [[Homestar Runner]]: Come for Homestar, stay for [[Ensemble Darkhorse|Strong Bad]]!
* The trope is referenced in an Easter Egg featuring the [[Homestar Runner|Teen Girl Squad]] in the sbemail "death metal":
{{quote| '''What's-Her-Face:''' Cheerleader! Are you here to see Brainkrieg?<br />
'''Cheerleader:''' I come for the wuggas, but stay for the jiggy juggas.<br />
'''Death metal band on the stage:''' ''(offscreen)'' Jugga jigga wugga! }}
* [[Valenth]]: Come for the pretty adoptable artwork, stay for the surprisingly complex storyline.
