Line 31:
** In ''The Princess Diaries 2'', Mia kisses her fiance to see if they have chemistry, and they [[No Sparks|don't]].
* In ''[[Spider-Man (film)|Spider-Man]] 2'', Mary Jane asks her fiance to kiss her upside down, reenacting her awesome kiss with Spiderman. He feels it; she doesnt.
** The trope is invoked again a little later in the movie, when Mary Jane asks Peter Parker to kiss her, knowing that it would prove he does, in fact, love her, though he just denied it. This is a special case of [[Test Kiss]], because she is testing his identity as well as his love for her. They're [[Almost Kiss|interrupted]] by a car crashing through the window of the diner they're meeting in.
* In ''[[Bring It On]]: In It To Win It'', one of the male cheerleaders comes out as straight (apparently, he liked the fact that girls would change in front of him). Nobody believes him, so one of the girls grabs him and kisses him, which cues this line:
{{quote|'''Chelsea''': Okay, he is ''not'' gay!}}
Line 49:
 
== Live Action Television ==
* In ''[[The Big Bang Theory]]'', Leonard and Leslie decide to skip all that pointless date business and proceed directly to the goodnight kiss--nokiss—no sparks fly.
** Leonard and Penny do a version of this after Sheldon gives both of them far too too much advice about Schroedinger's Cat (i.e., their relationship currently has equal potential to be "alive" or "dead"), and Penny declares that "the cat's alive."
* This happened at least twice on ''[[Boy Meets World]]''.
Line 55:
** Shawn and Topanga kissed for a film project and Corey was extremely jealous. Angela (Shawn's girlfriend) tried to convince him it didn't mean anything, but ended up having to throw him down on the bed and lay one on him to show him that it's different with someone other than your one true love.
* In the third season of ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'', Cordelia and Wesley finally kiss after half a season's worth of [[Unresolved Sexual Tension]]. The kiss is incredibly awkward, they pull apart, say some polite goodbyes, and never consider the idea again.
* In a rare example of a [[Test Kiss]] being an actual test, Crichton and Aeryn from ''[[Farscape]]'' once kissed in a test for genetic compatibility. Positive!
** This is done via the use of a chemical placed on each person's tongue. If the kiss is sweet, the pair are genetically compatible. This also occurs after Crichton is almost forced into marriage with a Sebacean princess because their test kiss came back positive.
* Played with on ''[[The Secret Life of the American Teenager]]''. Amy worries that she might not be a good kisser after a guy doesn't call her after their date. Her baby daddy Ricky offers to kiss her to calm her fears, and practice her technique if need be. When the two of them kiss, it quickly becomes clear that it's not practicing, but the resolving of [[UST]].(Though they initially tell their friends that they're [[Like Brother and Sister|just friends]] and it really was [[Blatant Lies|just practice]])
