** In the famous episode "Mama Luigi", Luigi GASPS underwater.
* Like its source material, the short-lived cartoon ''[[Fish Police (animation)|Fish Police]]'' would both follow and subvert this trope, mostly depending on which would better suit the [[Rule of Funny]]. As an example, in one episode one of the villain's henchmen was pushed out of a window from several stories up; when Inspector Gil found the henchman clinging to the window ledge by his fingers (fins?) calling for help, Gil reminded the henchman he was a fish and could just swim away. The henchman let go of the window ledge—only for [[Gravity Is a Harsh Mistress|gravity]] to promptly take over and cause the henchman to plummet to the ground, Wile E. Coyote-style. (Making this an inversion of Gravitational Cognizance, in that it's a case of a character falling because they're too dim to realize they shouldn't be.)
* ''Sharky and George'' played the [[2-D Space]] aspect perfectly straight. Fish swam a few inches above the ground
* In the TV series' [[Animated Adaptation]] of ''[[Dumb and Dumber]]'', one robot operates a blowtorch and fire is emitted from the blowtorch, ''even underwater!''
* In the episode called "Who's Minding the Ed?" from ''[[Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy]]'', Ed fills up his room with water around Edd, Eddy, and the animals were inside. When Sarah opens Ed's door, she sees the room completely filled with water. Ed is just standing on the ground, while Eddy and Edd float around with the latter holding his breath. Cue [[Opening the Flood Gates]].
