Wannabe Line: Difference between revisions

Line 20:

* Showed up in ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]'' in the episode "No Tomorrow" with a twist: the [[Bouncer]] was only letting guys in, because there were so many women already inside that "people are going to think it's a lesbian bar." Ted and Barney immediately ditch their dates to get whisked past the line.

** Showed up earlier in the first season episode "OK Awesome", with three nerdy side characters stuck outside the club as Robin is able to whisk her friends right past them and step outside to make phone calls because she was on the VIP list (until the shift change for the bouncer means that the new guy doesn't recognize her so she gets stuck outside too).

* ''[[That 70s Show]]'' had this as an A plot, where Eric, Donna, Hyde and Fez try to get into a Studio 54 knock off in Chicago. Donna as the designated hot girl gets in right away but the boys take longer. Fez gets in with his dance moves, Hyde with his anti-conformity speech, and Eric simply because he is Donna's boyfriend (the bouncer couldn't believe she was dating him, and thought they were ''siblings'').

* ''[[That '70s Show]]'' had this as an A plot, where Eric, Donna, Hyde and Fez try to get into a Studio 54 knock off in Chicago. Donna as the designated hot girl gets in right away but the boys take longer. Fez gets in with his dance moves, Hyde with his anti-conformity speech, and Eric simply because he is Donna's boyfriend (the bouncer couldn't believe she was dating him, and thought they were ''siblings'').

* In ''[[Home Improvement]]'', Tim and Jill go to a club to search for Wilson's niece and the bouncer lets Jill in but not Tim because he's not cool enough. Tim then becomes obsessed with trying to get in. However, said club wasn't a [[Coolest Club Ever]], it was a fairly normal looking club.

== [[Video Games]] ==

* The Afterlife club on Omega in ''[[Mass Effect 2]]'' features a small line of would-be patrons. Shepard goes right in.

* Played straight in the Hamburg night club mission of [[No One Lives Forever]], with Cait sneaking in by having a friendly patron distract the bouncer so she can climb in through a window.

* The Hive from [[Deus Ex: Human Revolution|Deus Ex Human Revolution]] has a small line, Jensen has other ways of getting in though, including the vents, the sewers and decking the bouncer.
