== Film ==
* ''[[Last Action Hero]]'':
Line 14 ⟶ 13:
== [[Game Shows]] ==
* Occasionally done for laughs on ''[[Jeopardy!]]'' when someone hits a Daily Double. Instead of saying the typical "I'd like to make this a true Daily Double", one contestant said, "[[Wheel of Fortune|I'd like to solve the puzzle.]]" The requirements for answers being a question have also been abused for jokes, such as "What be ebonics?"
* Contestants on other shows have to be reminded that they're ''not'' on ''Jeopardy!'' (''[[Gambit]], [[Win Ben Stein's Money]]'') after answering a question in the form of a question. Ben Stein makes a causer of this infraction wear a dunce cap.
* Late in the run of ''[[Concentration|Classic Concentration]]'', contestants started saying "[[Wheel of Fortune|I'd like to solve the puzzle]]" once the board was at a position where the rebus was solvable.
== [[Live Action TV]] ==
Line 57 ⟶ 56:
{{quote|'''Stan:''' Welp, we killed Kenny.
'''Kyle:''' Yep, we're a couple of bastards.}}
* In episode 10 of ''[[Scooby
* ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'' does this almost [[Once an Episode]].
** "Aren't you a little old to be building a fort?" "No, no I'm not. Shut up."
*** "Aren't you a little old to be a heavyweight boxer?"
Line 70 ⟶ 69:
*** "PERRY THE TEENAGE GIRL!"
** "Norm, I know what we're going to do today!"
* ''[[Futurama]]'' sometimes does this with Farnsworth's "Good news, everyone", instead having him say something like "Bad news, no one" or "Good news, no one".
** Also, Hermes in "How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back": "Sweet... something... of... someplace". This counts as a subversion as well as a [[Lampshade Hanging]], since it's the only time where it doesn't rhyme, and one of the only times when the "something" isn't an animal.
