== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* The Doctor keeps the ''500 Year Diary'' in the series ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]''
* ''[[Doogie Howser, M.D.]]'' ended each episode with Doogie writing on his computer diary.
* ''Secret Diary of a Call Girl'', which is based on the above ''Belle de Jour'' blog
Line 108:
* There are several diaries in ''[[Calling]]'' which are needed to help the story move along since you're trying to learn about the mysteries of the game.
* April keeps a diary throughout the original ''[[The Longest Journey]]'', which is an important source of her characterization. How she manages to update it even after being pulled into a parallel universe in just her underwear is never explained.
* Luke's diary in ''[[Tales of the Abyss (Video Game)|Tales of the Abyss]]'' functions as both [[Now Where Was I Going Again?]] for the player and showing [[Character Development]] for Luke outside party interactions.
* In role-playing games, diaries seem to be kept by an inordinate number of people - even those one wouldn't expect to be particularly literate or to have much interest in chronicling their thoughts or day-to-day lives. The real purpose of these diaries, of course, is to conveniently tell the protagonist exactly how to break the curse, find the hidden treasure, or what have you, without too much strain on the player's (or the game designer's) part.
