* ''WesternAnimation/MegaBabies'': In the episode ''Ice Ice Baby'', the villainess Tanna Hardly (who was turned into an ugly mutant with ice breath and ice-like physique at the begin of the episode) is executed by the babies in a rather crude, delayed, and humilating way; with the level of crudity increasing from begin to end: First, Tanna is beaten up with makeshift ice hockey sticks and the last teeth remaining after her transformation are knocked out of her upper jaw with a projectile. (Nurse Lazlo, who fights her way to the babies, notes that it may not be legal, but still fun to watch.) Then all her limbs are shattered one by one. And while she cries out in pain every time and screams out of despair that she wanted to win the ice skating championship, she's also mocked by her opponents. Now she has to watch in horror as the remains of her limbs crumble away, screaming: "What's happening to me?" One of the babies hugs her with a sadistic grin, whereupon her upper body also shatters. Tanna's still-living head is finally dissolved by hot cocoa, which Lazlo accidentaly spills over it. The baby, who previously pushed Lazlo from behind, is now sliding around on Tanna's melted remains, laughing. Compared to her ridiculously low level of wickedness and the low severity of her deeds, this is a rather cruel and disguisting punishment.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'': Season 3 really ramps up the disturbing deaths.
** The Earth Queen's is breathtaking: Zaheer murders her by pulling the air out of her lungs, essentially suffocating her. Viewers are even given the [[SarcasmMode lovely]] imagery of the Queen's eyes bulging and going bloodshot from lack of oxygen while she gasps for breath.
** P'li's death is mind-blowing: While Lin distracts her, Su metalbends a piece of armor around her head, just as P'li's about to use her combustionbending. Effectively, YourHeadAsplode, but given a GoryDiscretionShot. At least she went quickly, unlike the Earth Queen.
** Ming-hua's is positively shocking: Mako electrocutes her to death with lightningbending when it becomes clear he has no choice but to use lethal force.
** Ghazan's really brings the house down: After he realises that he can't beat Mako and Bolin together, he elects to collapse the entire cave they're in rather than go back to prison, being crushed by boulders and/or melted by his own lavabending.
* ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' and ''WesternAnimation/MerrieMelodies'': Too many instances to count, particularly for Wile E. Coyote and Sylvester the Cat.
** Perhaps Wile E.'s most famous death making this trope comes in the final segment of the extended (infamous) catapult gag in "WesternAnimation/ToBeepOrNotToBeep." After trying in vain to unjam a stuck, loaded catapult (this after he has already been crushed five times by the boulder), which he hopes to use against his longtime nemesis the Road Runner, Wile E. finally does get it freed, but doesn't realize it until he sees himself fast approaching a large rock formation. After an OhCrap, Wile E. and the boulder smash through the formation, crushing the still conscious Coyote; the boulder eventually hits a network of high-voltage power lines and, while he somehow avoids electrocution, Wile E. and the rock are slung all the way back on top of the catapult's arm, which then plops him to the ground, and the boulder finally smashes him.
** The death that most fits this trope is probably for that bad ol' puddy tat, Sylvester in "WesternAnimation/SatansWaitin," where a satanic version of Hector the Bulldog, exploiting the notion that CatsHaveNineLives, goads the cat into chasing Tweety into the most violent of situations. He falls from a tall building, is crushed beneath a steamroller, gets scared to death in a fun house, is shot multiple times in a shooting gallery, and slams into a low-clearance entrance of a roller-coaster tunnel. With just one life left, Sylvester decides that chasing Tweety isn't worth it and initially avoids the trope-fulfilling death. Unfortunately, he decides to move into a double-enforced bank safe on the day two crooks use nitroglycerin to blow open the safe and rob it of its contents. After the explosion, Sylvester and the crooks are seen going to Hell. One of the crooks tells his partner that he used too much nitro. "Now he tells him!" mutters a battered and disgusted Sylvester.
*** Other cartoons have Sylvester being beaten to death by an army of bulldogs and mauled to death by lions.
** The fate that WesternAnimation/BugsBunny humorously faces if he fails his mission in ''WesternAnimation/KnightyKnightBugs''. The King threatens to have him "put to the rack, burned at the stake, ''and'' beheaded." [[MirthlessLaughter Bugs laughs at first]], but then [[CryLaughing starts crying]] when he realizes the king is serious.
** Other characters -- both the regular Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies gang, and one-off characters have also suffered cruel deaths. One example of the one-time character suffering this fate was the villain taking a (presumed) KarmicDeath in the 1951 short "Chow Hound." Here, a cruel, merciless bulldog uses a cat and a mouse as unwilling patsies in a scheme to obtain dinner from various masters. After holding the cat and mouse hostage for weeks to elicit large rewards for their return to various "masters", the dog purchases a butcher shop and proceeds to eat everything in sight until he is severely bloated and unable to move. At a veterinarian clinic, after two doctors diagnose the case as "a distinct case of overeating", the cat and mouse march in to begin enacting the trope. The cat speaking for the only time in the film menacingly says, "This time, we didn't forget the gravy!" (referring to all the times the cat was forced to obtain dinner only to get smacked because it didn't include gravy); the mouse places a large funnel into the dog's mouth and smiles as the cat begins to pour the contents of an institutional-sized canister of gravy into the funnel. The nervously perspiring dog mutters "no" several times but is helpless to stop them as the picture irises out over the sound of the dog gurgling. It is presumed that sometime after the iris out, the dog slowly suffocates to death. Or pops, this ''is'' a cartoon after all.
* This was averted in ''WesternAnimation/PennZeroPartTimeHero'' but it's hard to overlook the fact that [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Professor Evil Professor]] intended to have the heroes [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill dropped in acid, disintegrated by a disintegration ray, reintegrated by a reintegration ray and pressed into decorative cubes.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/ThePerilsOfPenelopePitstop'' in general is a very lighthearted show, but it’s premise The Hooded Claw trying to kill Penelope in very juicy, gruesome ways. Among them are: feeding her to crocodiles, mummifying her alive and impaling her on a harpoon. Of course these attempts always fail and the worst that comes from them are AmusingInjuries.
* PlayedForLaughs quite frequently in ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'':
** Vance attempts an AirVentEscape in Season 3, but is cut in half by booby traps and the corpse continues to rattle around inside the vent until someone else stops it.
** The Season 1 episode Meeseeks and Destroy [[BatmanColdOpen begins]] with alternate versions of the Smith family dying as the skin melts off of their faces.
* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'': Chef's death, from the episode [[WhamEpisode "The Return of Chef"]] is solid terror and fits firmly into this trope: first burned by fire, then falling onto some rocks, then being impaled on a stick, then a bear and a leopard begin to dismember his face and body, ripping an arm and a leg off. Worse, in an attempt to save him, the Super Adventure Club members shoot him accidentally. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Plus]] [[NoDeadBodyPoops Chef craps himself.]]
** [[TheyKilledKennyAgain Kenny.]] Oh man, where to begin... [[EatenAlive He gets eaten from the inside out by rats while he's still alive,]] swells up and explodes due to a chemical reaction caused by antacid tablets, and has died slowly and painfully from chickenpox, syphilis, [[ThePlague the plague]] AND muscular dystrophy. But the worst has to be his death in [[BigDamnMovie the movie.]] [[FartsOnFire He gets lit]] [[ManOnFire on fire,]] salt is ''[[LiteralMetaphor literally]]'' poured on his wounds, [[DeathByIrony is disemboweled by the very doctors who were trying to save him,]] and his entire chest explodes due to his heart being replaced by a baked potato. The fact that it's unpleasant for the audience to watch on top of that makes it even more cruel and unusual.
** Just to make things worse, the Mysterion arc reveals that [[spoiler: his BornAgainImmortality ability means that he remembers ''every'' single one of his deaths so far]]. Ouch.
* ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'': Four words. RIFF. TAMSON’S. DEATH. SCENE. Seriously, the only plausible reason they got away with putting ''this'' on kids’ television is because he’s technically a fish.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Superjail}}'' is all about this trope. Just watch any episode for really horrible, cruel and unexpected deaths.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012'', Spy Roach gets hit by an energy drill, causing him to expand until he explodes.
* Blurr's death in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated''. He was crushed into a cube for crying out loud! And that was after he found out that his "boss" so-to-speak, was a double agent. Worse, concept art showed the cube with [[AndIMustScream a still-glowing]] [[OurSoulsAreDifferent Spark]].
* Also averted in ''WesternAnimation/WanderOverYonder'' albeit nearly played straight. The finale really drives [[BigBad Dominator]]'s sadism home by having her plan (and very nearly execute onscreen) a horrific death for Sylvia: namely impaling her with the massive drill she uses to destroy planets.

** The Earth Queen's is breathtaking: Zaheer murders her by pulling the air out of her lungs, essentially suffocating her. Viewers are even given the [[SarcasmMode lovely]] imagery of the Queen's eyes bulging and going bloodshot from lack of oxygen while she gasps for breath.
** P'li's death is mind-blowing: While Lin distracts her, Su metalbends a piece of armor around her head, just as P'li's about to use her combustionbending. Effectively, YourHeadAsplode, but given a GoryDiscretionShot. At least she went quickly, unlike the Earth Queen.
** Ming-hua's is positively shocking: Mako electrocutes her to death with lightningbending when it becomes clear he has no choice but to use lethal force.
** Ghazan's really brings the house down: After he realises that he can't beat Mako and Bolin together, he elects to collapse the entire cave they're in rather than go back to prison, being crushed by boulders and/or melted by his own lavabending.
* ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' and ''WesternAnimation/MerrieMelodies'': Too many instances to count, particularly for Wile E. Coyote and Sylvester the Cat.
** Perhaps Wile E.'s most famous death making this trope comes in the final segment of the extended (infamous) catapult gag in "WesternAnimation/ToBeepOrNotToBeep." After trying in vain to unjam a stuck, loaded catapult (this after he has already been crushed five times by the boulder), which he hopes to use against his longtime nemesis the Road Runner, Wile E. finally does get it freed, but doesn't realize it until he sees himself fast approaching a large rock formation. After an OhCrap, Wile E. and the boulder smash through the formation, crushing the still conscious Coyote; the boulder eventually hits a network of high-voltage power lines and, while he somehow avoids electrocution, Wile E. and the rock are slung all the way back on top of the catapult's arm, which then plops him to the ground, and the boulder finally smashes him.
** The death that most fits this trope is probably for that bad ol' puddy tat, Sylvester in "WesternAnimation/SatansWaitin," where a satanic version of Hector the Bulldog, exploiting the notion that CatsHaveNineLives, goads the cat into chasing Tweety into the most violent of situations. He falls from a tall building, is crushed beneath a steamroller, gets scared to death in a fun house, is shot multiple times in a shooting gallery, and slams into a low-clearance entrance of a roller-coaster tunnel. With just one life left, Sylvester decides that chasing Tweety isn't worth it and initially avoids the trope-fulfilling death. Unfortunately, he decides to move into a double-enforced bank safe on the day two crooks use nitroglycerin to blow open the safe and rob it of its contents. After the explosion, Sylvester and the crooks are seen going to Hell. One of the crooks tells his partner that he used too much nitro. "Now he tells him!" mutters a battered and disgusted Sylvester.
*** Other cartoons have Sylvester being beaten to death by an army of bulldogs and mauled to death by lions.
** The fate that WesternAnimation/BugsBunny humorously faces if he fails his mission in ''WesternAnimation/KnightyKnightBugs''. The King threatens to have him "put to the rack, burned at the stake, ''and'' beheaded." [[MirthlessLaughter Bugs laughs at first]], but then [[CryLaughing starts crying]] when he realizes the king is serious.
** Other characters -- both the regular Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies gang, and one-off characters have also suffered cruel deaths. One example of the one-time character suffering this fate was the villain taking a (presumed) KarmicDeath in the 1951 short "Chow Hound." Here, a cruel, merciless bulldog uses a cat and a mouse as unwilling patsies in a scheme to obtain dinner from various masters. After holding the cat and mouse hostage for weeks to elicit large rewards for their return to various "masters", the dog purchases a butcher shop and proceeds to eat everything in sight until he is severely bloated and unable to move. At a veterinarian clinic, after two doctors diagnose the case as "a distinct case of overeating", the cat and mouse march in to begin enacting the trope. The cat speaking for the only time in the film menacingly says, "This time, we didn't forget the gravy!" (referring to all the times the cat was forced to obtain dinner only to get smacked because it didn't include gravy); the mouse places a large funnel into the dog's mouth and smiles as the cat begins to pour the contents of an institutional-sized canister of gravy into the funnel. The nervously perspiring dog mutters "no" several times but is helpless to stop them as the picture irises out over the sound of the dog gurgling. It is presumed that sometime after the iris out, the dog slowly suffocates to death. Or pops, this ''is'' a cartoon after all.
* This was averted in ''WesternAnimation/PennZeroPartTimeHero'' but it's hard to overlook the fact that [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Professor Evil Professor]] intended to have the heroes [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill dropped in acid, disintegrated by a disintegration ray, reintegrated by a reintegration ray and pressed into decorative cubes.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/ThePerilsOfPenelopePitstop'' in general is a very lighthearted show, but it’s premise The Hooded Claw trying to kill Penelope in very juicy, gruesome ways. Among them are: feeding her to crocodiles, mummifying her alive and impaling her on a harpoon. Of course these attempts always fail and the worst that comes from them are AmusingInjuries.
* PlayedForLaughs quite frequently in ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'':
** Vance attempts an AirVentEscape in Season 3, but is cut in half by booby traps and the corpse continues to rattle around inside the vent until someone else stops it.
** The Season 1 episode Meeseeks and Destroy [[BatmanColdOpen begins]] with alternate versions of the Smith family dying as the skin melts off of their faces.
* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'': Chef's death, from the episode [[WhamEpisode "The Return of Chef"]] is solid terror and fits firmly into this trope: first burned by fire, then falling onto some rocks, then being impaled on a stick, then a bear and a leopard begin to dismember his face and body, ripping an arm and a leg off. Worse, in an attempt to save him, the Super Adventure Club members shoot him accidentally. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Plus]] [[NoDeadBodyPoops Chef craps himself.]]
** [[TheyKilledKennyAgain Kenny.]] Oh man, where to begin... [[EatenAlive He gets eaten from the inside out by rats while he's still alive,]] swells up and explodes due to a chemical reaction caused by antacid tablets, and has died slowly and painfully from chickenpox, syphilis, [[ThePlague the plague]] AND muscular dystrophy. But the worst has to be his death in [[BigDamnMovie the movie.]] [[FartsOnFire He gets lit]] [[ManOnFire on fire,]] salt is ''[[LiteralMetaphor literally]]'' poured on his wounds, [[DeathByIrony is disemboweled by the very doctors who were trying to save him,]] and his entire chest explodes due to his heart being replaced by a baked potato. The fact that it's unpleasant for the audience to watch on top of that makes it even more cruel and unusual.
** Just to make things worse, the Mysterion arc reveals that [[spoiler: his BornAgainImmortality ability means that he remembers ''every'' single one of his deaths so far]]. Ouch.
* ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'': Four words. RIFF. TAMSON’S. DEATH. SCENE. Seriously, the only plausible reason they got away with putting ''this'' on kids’ television is because he’s technically a fish.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Superjail}}'' is all about this trope. Just watch any episode for really horrible, cruel and unexpected deaths.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012'', Spy Roach gets hit by an energy drill, causing him to expand until he explodes.
* Blurr's death in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated''. He was crushed into a cube for crying out loud! And that was after he found out that his "boss" so-to-speak, was a double agent. Worse, concept art showed the cube with [[AndIMustScream a still-glowing]] [[OurSoulsAreDifferent Spark]].
* Also averted in ''WesternAnimation/WanderOverYonder'' albeit nearly played straight. The finale really drives [[BigBad Dominator]]'s sadism home by having her plan (and very nearly execute onscreen) a horrific death for Sylvia: namely impaling her with the massive drill she uses to destroy planets.
