Line 4:
The trope name comes from ''[[The Cisco Kid]],'' where Cisco would deliver the punchline, and Pancho would always go, "[[First Name Ultimatum|Oh, Ceeesco!]]" Still used in many shows, comedy or not.
 
Compare to [[And Knowing Is Half the Battle]] and [[End -of -Episode Silliness]]. Also compare with [[The Stinger]], where this is after the credits. Usually a variation of [[Every Episode Ending]].
 
[[Incredibly Lame Pun|Nothing to do with networking equipment]]. [[Star Trek Deep Space Nine|Or a certain bald federation captain.]]

Line 22:
* "What Did We Learn on the Show Tonight, Craig?" from [[The Late Late Show]].
* When the final joke happens after the credits it is known as [[The Stinger]]. ''[[MST3K]]'' is famous for this.
* The ''[[BlakesBlake's Seven (TV)|Blakes Seven]]'' episode "Children of Auron" where the premise is the almost total extermination of the Aurons, a race of empathic humanoids who are opposed to the evil Federation and are thus nominally allied with the protagonists. (Almost all alliances in ''Blake's Seven'' are nominal. It's their [[Planet of Hats|Hat]].) Approximately five thousand children and a few adults survive and the crew manage to find them a location where they will be safe and can rebuild the Auron race. At the episode's close Avon makes a joke about the society being a gigantic nursery, which in the context of recent genocide is in ''incredibly'' poor taste. Auron main character Cally is notably absent from the bridge at this point.
* ''[[Funky Squad]]''.
* Parodied in ''[[Police Squad!]]'', along with the freeze frame ending.
* Spoofed to hell and back in ''[[Garth Marenghi's Darkplace (TV)|Garth Marenghi's Darkplace]]'' whenever one of the group makes a cheesy pun about what's just happened and the others laugh over-enthusiastically for a ridiculously long time.
* Parodied in ''[[That's My Bush]]''; "Oh, Laura! One of these days, I'm gonna punch you in the face!"
