* ''[[Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy]]'': In "Brother, Can You Spare An Ed?", after Edd goes on a dramatic, guilt-ridden monologue about Eddy convincing Ed to buy jawbreakers with Sarah's money (instead of fudge, like she asked), Eddy responds with "Who writes this guy's stuff?"
* ''[[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]]'': As listed on the [[Who Writes This Crap?/Quotes|quote page]], Dr. Robotnik demands to imprison the cartoonist who made fun of him in his comic book.
* On ''[[Futurama]]'', we ''know'' Fry writes this crap. ([[Rouge Angles of Satin|"I am the greetest. Now I will leave Earth for no raisin!]]") But there's also this, as part of his opera that was crashed by the Robot Devil:

They next thing you know, [[Donald Duck|they'll stick me with three snot-nosed nephews!]] I wouldn't put it past them! It's just... ugh! Warner Brothers doesn't have an original bone in its...}}
* ''[[Taz-Mania]]'': Francis X. Bushlad gets an epic one in one episode, berating the writers for the [[All Just a Dream]] ending and pointing out the unfired [[Chekhov's Gun]] of the 16 ton weight that had been dangling over the characters' heads for most the episode. [[Tempting Fate|This proves unwise]].
