Line 651:
* ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'' sort of counts: despite a half-dozen [[Scout Out|Fireside Girls]], [[The Chick|Isabella]] is the only girl in Phineas and Ferb's group with any significant personality. The creators have since developed the Fireside Girls a ''bit'' more, and there are plenty of other notable female characters, particularly [[The Cassandra|Candace]], [[Asian Airhead|Stacy]], [[Hot Mom|Linda]], and [[Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughter|Vanessa]].
* ''[[KaBlam!]]!'s'' male cast (that was included in over three episodes) consisted of Henry, Mr. foot, and Mr. Stockdale (starting Season 4). "Over three appearances" girl? June. However, she wasn't the stereotypical [[The Chick|chick]], as she was just originally a dumber, over-excited, female version of Henry.
** ''[[Action League NOW]]''{{'}}s only main female was Thundergirl, and Justice (the dog) since it switched from male to female in some episodes.
* The cartoon adaptation of ''[[Redwall|Martin the Warrior]]'' averted this by changing the normally 3:1 ratio to 2:2, by making Pallum the Hedgehog a girl.
* On ''[[Jimmy Two-Shoes|Jimmy Two Shoes]]'', Heloise is the only regular female character. This is noteable in the title sequence, where she's the ''only'' female in the final group shot at 5:1. Recurring characters [[Crazy Awesome|Saffi]] and [[Rich Bitch|Jez]] ease this a bit, but they still tend not to have much of a role.
Line 662:
* Played with in the "You Got F'ed in the A" episode of ''[[South Park]]'', when Stan is putting together his dance team.
** "We can't have [a dance team of] all guys; [[Have I Mentioned I Am Heterosexual Today?|people will think we're fags]]"
* The two recentTwo Disney films, ''[[The Princess and the Frog]]'' and ''[[Tangled]]'', are ostensibly aimed at girls, and have female lead characters, but otherwise they both have 1:3 female-to-male ratio—femaleratio: female lead, male [[Love Interest]] and co-lead, two male (animal) supporting characters. Then one woman in a supporting role (a mentor in ''Princess,'' a villain in ''Tangled''). ''Princess'' does slightly better, featuring Tiana's mother and her supportive friend, Charlotte.
* Until the very end of the premiere of ''[[Young Justice (animation)|Young Justice]]'' there are no females, and for several episodes thereafter there's only Miss Martian. Even with Artemis there's still a pretty noticeable disparity. Although the group's "[[Team Mom|den mother]]" and combat trainer is Black Canary, and an aged-down [[Zatanna]] has appeared as a [[Guest Star Party Member]] for a few episodes.
** Averted as of "Usual Suspects." The team is now a [[Gender Equal Ensemble]] with four boys and four girls.
Line 672:
'''Herbert/Obi-Wan''': Who do you think it is? Who's the only goddamn woman in the galaxy? }}
* ''[[Kaeloo]]'', the eponymous character of said series, is the only female in the main cast. Even so, [[Viewer Gender Confusion|most viewers find it hard to tell]].
