Line 94:
* The pilot episode of ''[[Turks]]'' opened with two crooks attempting to rob a cop bar. Leads to a [[Crowning Moment of Funny]] when, as they are about to leave, someone calls out to them. They turn around and discover everyone in the bar, except for the bartender and the waitress, is holding a badge and a gun.
* Similar to the Monty Python example above, a scene on ''[[The Sketch Show]]'' has a group of counterfeiters who realize it's costing them more than 12 pounds to produce a usable 10 pound note. After a few suggestions for rectifying this, they decide to just start circulating actual 10 pound notes.
* Given the setting, ''[[Barney Miller]]'' had ''lots'' of them, way too many to list. Among those that stand out: A flasher who is arrested in the middle of December when it's below zero (he cleans up his act and becomes a councilor in a later season), a man in a wheelchair who shoplifts and ''twice'' tries to flee the station ("Wojo's Problem"), Mr. Clark, a blind man who tries to shoplift (he becomes a recurring character later), and a convict who is given unsupervised prison furloughs for work release, but uses them to commit armed robberies.
