** "Good Times With Weapons" featured one when returning from commercial with an announcer discussing how "the legendary battle of Tokutawain" earlier in the episode began and how the ninjas were forced to work together [[Serious Business|or else they would all be grounded.]]
* ''[[Animaniacs]]'' gets in on this, with one episode opening with 'Previously on ''Animaniacs'':', followed by parodies of famous action and suspense scenes with a cliffhanger ending...sort of.
* The 90's animated ''[[Spider-Man: The Animated Series]]'' and ''[[X-Men (animation)|X-Men]]'' series both did this from episode 2 on. In the [[Play StationPlayStation]] ''[[Spider-Man (2000 video game)|Spider-Man]] 2'' game(not the movie adaptation, as the first film hadn't yet been released, not only are we treated to a [["Previously On..."]] , but villains in jail from the first game are spotted by the defeated baddies of the second. The narration and style exactly mirrored the Animated Series.
* ''[[Drawn Together]]'' was know to do this from time to time, often playing up alot of the typical "Previously On" subjects.
* ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'' [[Parody Episode]] of ''[[24]]'' opens with "Previously on ''The Simpsons''...", complete with ''24''-style character descriptions. Obviously, since the previous episode ''hadn't'' been a parody of ''24'', none of the events shown (such as Principal Skinner assigning Lisa to the Counter Truancy Unit) had ever been seen before. They did serve to set up the plot of the episode, though.
