== Comic Books ==
* [[Marvel Comics]] got downright silly with this trope in the 2000s. ''New [[The Avengers (Comic Book)|Avengers]]''! ''New [[X -Men]]''! ''New [[Excalibur (Comic Book)|Excalibur]]''! ''New [[Exiles (Comic Book)|Exiles]]''! When ''[[New Warriors]]'' got relaunched in the middle of this, the joke was that it was going to be called ''New New Warriors''.
** ''New Excalibur'' was the most ridiculous example, because it came directly after the "Professor X and Magneto in Genosha" ''Excalibur'' title, and was about a mutant team based in the UK, led by Captain Britain. It was, in fact, '''''Old''' Excalibur''.
** And recently ''New [[Thunderbolts]]''. Not to mention 1975's "All New, All Different" ''[[X -Men (Comic Book)|X Men]]'', which was at least not the official title (and continued 3 of the 6 protagonists from the previous issues, so it was [[Blatant Lies]]).
* [[Marvel Comics]]' ''[[New Mutants]]'' are pretty damn old by now.
* The New Teen Titans. As this comic became [[DC Comics]]' #1 hit for a while, the title lasted long after it could hardly be said to be new. They actually lost the "Teen" before they lost the "New".

== Film ==
* ''[[Pippi Longstocking (Literature)|The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking]]''
 
 
== Literature ==
* ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]: [[Virgin New Adventures|The New Adventures]]''
* ''The New Adventures of [[Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen|Mary-Kate & Ashley]]''
 
Line 41:
 
== Video Games ==
* ''[[New Super Mario Bros (Video Game)|New Super Mario Bros]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros Wii (Video Game)|New Super Mario Bros Wii]]''. Why they didn't just call them ''Super Mario Bros. 5'' and ''6'' is anyone's guess.
* ''The New [[Tetris (Video Game)|Tetris]]'' (1999) passed off Square mode as the future of Tetris.
 
 
Line 55:
* ''Brand Spankin' New [[Doug]]''. The producers obviously saw this coming, so after one season they renamed it ''[[Disney]]'s Doug''.
* ''[[The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh]]'' - which is over 20 years old.
* ''[[Batman: theThe Animated Series|The New Batman Adventures]]''
* ''[[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog|The New Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]]''; this was the name Toon Disney used when airing the comedic ''Sonic'' series (though the show was [[Blatant Lies|otherwise the same]]).
