Line 18:
** "Body and Soul", Wilson: {{spoiler|"I have cancer."}}
** "Everybody Dies" (series finale), House: {{spoiler|SHUT UP YOU IDIOT}}.
** Many episodes featured the [[Wham! Line]] "you're dying" or something to that effect. Sometimes they really ''were'' dying, but it was usually the penultimate diagnosis and was followed by a [[Wham Moment]] in which House had an epiphany and came up with the correct diagnosis. Cue [[Happy Ending|happy]], or, at worst, [[Bittersweet Ending]].
* [[Flash Forward 2009|D. Gibbons]] is a bad man.
** Message received.

** Episode 4x16 "Lucy": "How does he know you don't like tomatoes?"
** Last line of Season 8: [[Oh Crap|"Zod!"]]

Line 191:
** "Well, if you want to break your contract agreement and sell insurance, go ahead." "I don't have a contract."
* From ''[[V-2009]]'', we have: "{{spoiler|John May is dead.}}"
** Also, "{{spoiler|I believe you've just experienced your first human emotion.}}" To cap off an already intense [[Wham! Episode]].
* In ''[[Merlin (TV)|Merlin]]'', the young druid boy's words "My name is {{spoiler|Mordred}}" ends the scene with a sinister reminder that {{spoiler|this little boy ''will'' one day kill Arthur}}.

** Additionally, his line towards Decade in the finale regarding his mission: {{spoiler|"Do you remember my words? You needed to destroy all Kamen Riders. Instead you became comrades with them. That was...a big mistake."}}
* Played for laughs in ''[[Whose Line Is It Anyway]]'' - in the game called (oddly enough) ''Whose Line'', Colin and Ryan are given slips of paper with pre-written lines to incorporate into the scene, and since the writing is usually done before the show starts, the [[Wham! Line]] aspect of taking the scene in a different direction is unavoidable...but Colin and Ryan ''don't even miss a beat''.
** An outright [[Lampshade Hanging]] occurs in ''Scenes from a Hat'' when the suggestion "Worst lines in a [[Soap Opera]] leading into commercials" is pulled out.
* ''[[Torchwood (TV)|Torchwood]]: Children of Earth'', when the 456 reveal their interest in human children: {{spoiler|"They release a chemical, it feels...good."}}
