Line 164:
* ''[[Kaamelott]]'': King Léodagan, afflicted with an extreme case of [[Brutal Honesty]], is a bad liar the very rare times he tries it.
* ''[[Sonny With a Chance]]'': Sonny is a terrible liar. When she lies, her voice usually goes up an octave, and she stammers. The stammering tendency is shared by {{spoiler|her boyfriend}} Chad. Seriously, the cast of So Random must be pretty gullible to {{spoiler|fall for the multitude of excuses that Sonny and Chad come up with to hide the fact that they're planning to go on a date. By the time they're all in the limo and have Sonny and Chad cornered, they're either turning a blind eye to get free food, or they are seriously the most gullible people ever to be on television.}}
* It is something of a [[Running Gag]] that [[Lee Mack]] is this on ''[[Would I Lie to You?]]''
{{quote|[''Lee is having to claim that he used children's cutlery at every meal for a special diet'']
'''Rob Brydon''': What was the inspiration for this?
Line 223:
* ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]]'': Bastila Shan has a problem with her mouth moving when she thinks, but only when talking to a male player character.
* ''[[Rune Factory 3]]'''s Sofia's lies are made quite obvious as her dialogue will be printed [[Rainbow Speak|in red]] to indicate that she actually means the opposite. This is solely for the player's benefit, as the other characters lack the [[Medium Awareness]] to see it.
* These crop up a lot during the opening levels of [[LA Noire|L.A. Noire]]. Granted the game is mostly about reading people, so it's somewhat a [[Justified Tutorial]].
* Frank Sawhit in ''Phoenix Wright: [[Ace Attorney]]''. Justified, as he's the killer in the first ever case in the series, [[Reverse Whodunnit|(and that's not even a spoiler)]] and thus serves to get the player used to finding contradictions in witness testimonies.
** {{spoiler|He somehow manages to be [[Up to Eleven|even WORSE]] when he appears in prison in Investigations 2, though.}}
Line 235:
** [http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=211 Sometimes?] Honestly, she's just not very good at making things up. She also fails at [http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=180 coming up with] a [[Bond One-Liner]].
* ''[[Chainsawsuit]]'': [http://chainsawsuit.com/2008/11/19/strip-110/ Roger the Bad Liar].
* ''[[Something *Positive]]'': Jason kidnapped Anna's supposedly unworthy boyfriend. Anna followed the trail of drag-marks to Jason's apartment and demanded an explanation.
{{quote|'''Jason:''' Well, we've been having a real problem with Canadian Trapdoor Alligators. They scoop you up in a sack and drag you off to their den. It's horrible.
'''Anna:''' I'm impressed. Somehow I thought you'd be a better liar.
