Line 297:
* ''Made'': One episode had a slacker jock failing his classes wants to graduate. To help him study they get him a tutor, a hot female college student with glasses.
* ''[[wikipedia:Maid in Akihabara|Maid in Akihabara]]'': [[Lampshaded]]. [[Maid Cafe]] waitress (see [[Fan Service with a Smile]]) Saki falls over and her contact lenses come out, so she reluctantly puts on her glasses. The [[Otaku]] customers are all immediately smitten with her, thanks to her new-found [[Moe]]-ness. (This is also a direct inversion of the [[Beautiful All Along]] trope of the girl taking off her glasses and magically becoming pretty.)
* ''[[Magnum, P.I.]]'': Adelaide, in the first season [https://web.archive.org/web/20120605045118/http://www.hulu.com/watch/102248/magnum-pi-adelaide episode of the same name.]
* ''[[Malcolm in the Middle]]'': A pre-iCarly [[Jennette McCurdy]] played a tween version of this trope in the episode ''The Buseys Take a Hostage''.
* ''[[The Middleman]]'': Referenced in the show's podcast, when the creator is asked why Wendy Watson doesn't wear her glasses more. The response given is that she generally wears her glasses in civilian mode, and removes them in crime-fighter mode as a Clark Kent/Superman reference.
