Line 185:
** In the example above, Amy turns herself into a rat to escape [[Buffy-Speak|burnage]] at a stake only to find out she no longer has the human voicebox necessary to invoke the magic to return to humaness.
** It's also possible Amy was trying to turn the angry mob that had kidnapped her into rats rather than herself and just suffered a [[Magic Misfire]] due to her being tied up and thus unable to properly aim the spell.
** Eventually in Season 9 (the comic series) {{spoiler|this becomes Amy's final punishment after her complete surrender to darkness. Her attempt at revenge on Angel by harnessing Magic Town's power backfires (because Magic Town is a living, sapient town who sides with Willow and Nadia over her) and she is turned into a rat again; she wasn't seen again, so one can assume this time there would be no return.}}
* One episode of ''[[Hercules: The Legendary Journeys]]'' uses a magic Bow and arrow belonging to Artemis to turn Herc into a pig for most of the episode, while Iolaus and Autolycus scramble to get him restored.
* In ''[[Pushing Daisies]]'', the children of Coeur d'Coeurs are terrified of aunts Lily and Vivian because they are reputed to turn unwary children into birds. That the aunts have taught at least one of their pet parrots to say "Help! She turned me into a bird!" may have contributed to the rumor.
