* ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' had a sketch wherein the ladies room was a Greek garden with a eunuch lyrist who sang softly to them while slave boys fed them fruit and wrapped them in silk.
* ''[[Farscape]]'' took this to the extreme in the episode "A Human Reaction", where a world is created out of John's memories. As a result, everything is something directly taken from his memory - every random person on the street is someone he's met, none of the magazines and newspapers are from later than when he disappeared from Earth, and so on. So when John figures this out, he opens the door to the women's bathroom (because he's never been in one) and behind it is -- {{spoiler|a giant, swirling vortex of orange-brown energy}}. As [https://web.archive.org/web/20130420094556/http://www.televisionwithoutpity.com/show/farscape/a_human_reaction.php?page=23 elaborated on] at [[Television Without Pity]], this veers headlong into [[Deconstructed Trope|deconstruction]].
* ''[[The Drew Carey Show]]'' had this, where Larry, feeling disoriented, passes out on the couch in the women's bathroom. When he comes to he wants to know why the women have a couch in their bathroom (and subsequently why the men do not). Drew asks him "If there was, would you want to lay on it?"
* A running gag in the high school years of ''[[Boy Meets World]]'' was boys becoming indignant on seeing that the girls had a couch.
