* In the ''[[Rumpole of the Bailey]]'' episode "Rumpole and the course of true love" the case Rumpole is defending is a young high school teacher who slept with his student. Privately none of the lawyers seem to care very much, least of all the prosecuting attorney. She reasons that the girl was almost 16 anyway and "probably asked for it."

* On ''Swingtown,'' Laurie Miller is ferociously pursuing her hot teacher Mr. Stephens. He discourages her affection and when they do get together, they avert the trope since he's not her teacher any more..

* ''[[Law and Order: Criminal Intent|Law & Order: Criminal Intent]]'' did a fairly obvious by-the-numbers [[Ripped from the Headlines]] episode based on the Letourneau case, even casting an actress (Anne Dudek) who kinda looks like her.

* This featured in ''[[Neighbours]]'' with Rachael meeting and getting the number of a cute twentysomething who turns out to be her new teacher. Initially he gets mad (he thought she was in University) and tries not to encourage her, but she persists and they date in secret for a bit, then the writers obviously got bored and had him get busted, allowing for a long court case, shortish prison stay, then another attempt at a relationship (he isn't teaching anymore of course), until the overwhemlingly negative attitudes of everyone around them prompt him to move away.
