Line 18:
Could be considered having some [[Truth in Television]], because people with PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) have this type of flashback activated by a trigger. For instance, if a war veteran with PTSD heard gunfire, he could have a flashback to a traumatic event with the same weapon.

Line 57:
* In a season 4 episode of ''[[Angel (TV)|Angel]]'', "Ground State", electro-girl Gwen Raiden electrocutes and kills Charles Gunn. She immediately flashes back to an event in her childhood in which she accidentally kills a boy she was making friends with. [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Shocked]] with herself, she revives Gunn within twenty seconds or so.
* ''[[Dexter]]'' flash-cuts back to the moment Harry found Dexter more than once - most notably, at the end of season four.
* Used often in ''[[Homeland (TV)|Homeland]]'' to contrast Brody's time in captivity against his life at home. Since he's a [[Shell -Shocked Veteran]], everyday events can trigger some very dark memories.
