* One of Chuck Jones' TomAndJerry shorts plays with the "!" form of this, when Jerry runs off the edge of a building. After realizing there's nothing under his feet, he makes a "?" with surprise, then grabs onto it as the dot part falls away. When he falls, the question mark hooks onto a flagpole, saving him in the nick of time. When Tom runs off the same ledge, he makes an "!" in shock and grabs it, then falls past the flagpole. After noticing it, he bends the "!" into a hook shape, much too late for it to be any help.

* The late 1970s ''[[Spider-Man]]'' series starring Nicholas Hammond actually managed to pull off a live-action version of this trope to indicate when Spider-Man's spider sense went off. They'd intercut photo-negative images with the color-corrected images for a few seconds, creating the same effect as a standard AlertnessBlink.

* Oddly enough, this appears at one point in the non-cartoony ''BatmanTheAnimatedSeries''. The alertness lines are thin and almost unnoticeable, which may suggest that that episode's animators misinterpreted their appearance on the storyboard.
