* In an episode of ''TheJetsons'', Rosie the robot angrily rips the dress off a snobbish socialite who had insulted the titular family. Both Jane and the woman had entered a party wearing identical dresses, which led to the whole conflict.

their army physicals and had to strip, Potsie's underwear had little hearts on them and Ralph's had a big lobster.
* On
clothes off thinking that it'll lighten the load on the elevator. ([[ItMakesSenseInContext ...yeah.]]), as well as Negi's sneezing being capable of tearing clothes. There's also an instance where Asuna pulls Negi's pants down to get him out of bed.
** [[CuteGhostGirl Sayo]]'s very
first appearance in the manga (besides the old photo in the class roster) is an upskirt. [[KenAkamatsu Nothing unusual in that]] - but of course she's wearing [[StockUnderwear 1940s-vintage bloomers]], and the effect isn't quite the same...
* ''{{Colorful}}'' is one of the few fanservice anime with a quantity of ISeeLondon greater than or equal to upskirt {{Pantyshot}}s.
* In the second
episode of ''Series/TheBigBangTheory'', Leonard ''LightNovel/{{Dokkoida}}'', Edelweiss, a wannabe EnfantTerrible super villainess attempts a dramatic introduction only to discover that IHaveTheHighGround + GoofyPrintUnderwear leads to this trope.
* Perhaps in response to this trope when she was younger, Hinagiku of ''HayateTheCombatButler'' wears spats under her uniform.
** Played with later when another character encounters her when she's up in a tree
and Sheldon go she makes the claim that she saw Hinagiku's panties, the fact that she claims they were black, when another character told us that she likes being colorful, and her spats are black.
* Early in ''SlamDunk'', Sakuragi tries

The scene cuts ''SlamDunk'' example above also takes place in ''KodomoNoJikan'', done by the bratty Kuro to them leaving minus their pants.teacher Aoki. Yes, underpants and all. ''[[ItGotWorse With another student IN FRONT of him when it happens.]]''
* [[DragonBall Goku]] demonstrates this trope in his second fight with Tenshinhan by stealing the latter's belt. Though shocked at Goku's new speed, Ten tries to reassert control over the match by bragging about his new technique, which will make speed useless. The humiliation kicks in when Goku points out, yeah, but he should probably pull his pants up, and gives back the belt. Ten embarrassingly does so as the audience snickers.

* WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic had a rather infamous PantyShot in ''WebVideo/SuburbanKnights''. He was cosplaying [[Franchise/LegendOfZelda Link]] at the time in a tunic with no pants or leggings and WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick and WebVideo/ObscurusLupa were forced to bring to his attention the fact that they could see his balls. Everyone on the commentaries lampshaded the {{fanservice}} of the scene, and Critic himself called back to it in his review of ''DuckTales'', claiming fond memories.

** Considering
that they in Vol. 2, [[spoiler:they confess they've lusted after one another for ages, and then shag each other's brains out]], you could see call it foreshadowing...
* Used in an issue of ''[[XMen Excalibur]]'' in which the X-Babies end up in the main world. Lil'Wolvie says this to a nightshirt wearing Kitty Pryde.
* ''StrangersInParadise'': Katchoo has a dream in which she's hanging from a tree branch and an anthropomorphic alarm clock says this to her from the ground.

* ''FlushedAway''. Lesson #1 - never hold onto your [[strike:girlfriend's]] [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend acquaintance]]'s pants while on a zipline above the entire town.
* The 2007 ''{{Film/Transformers}}'' movie, in a bit obviously targeted at the younger demographic. Not that the other demographics wouldn't find it funny, mind you.
** Alarmingly, those were John Turturro's under-drawers. Anyone who has seen ''TheBigLebowski'' will know why that man should not expose himself when children are present.
*** Unfortunately [[spoiler: it gets worse in the sequel. Past {{Squick}}, straight into NightmareFuel.]]
* It isn't a [[DisneyAnimatedCanon Disney movie]] without someone losing their pants.
** Definitely true of ''[[Disney/{{Aladdin}} The Return Of Jafar]]'', where Abis Mal chops his own trousers off trying to slash his sword in the air while talking about a swordfight he was in.
** Subverted in ''MickeyDonaldGoofyTheThreeMusketeers'', in which Mickey's musketeer uniform is cut away by an enemy swordsman, revealing his familiar red shorts beneath.
*** Unless he's been running around in his boxers all this time and this is the first time it's been acknowledged.
** ''AliceInWonderland'', where the Cheshire Cat sabotages Alice's croquet game and bonhomie with the Queen of Hearts by flipping her over on her head and exposing her huge {{Goofy Print Underwear}} for all to see. She suffered a huge BSOD because of it.
*** The scene may be more memorable for the mass OhCrap moment experienced by the entire court when they realize that [[DisproportionateRetribution "someone's head will roll for this."]]

* Quoted by the Three Pigs in ''{{Shrek}}'', while holding onto the Fairy Godmother's foot (while she's flying).

* ''RugratsInParis'' had John Lithgow's character saying it after seeing Coco [=LaBouche=] getting the back of her bridal dress ripped off when Angelica deliberately steps on the train. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkN2WQ5m_QU
** A very similar scene occurred in the Olsen Twins movie ''It Takes Two''- replace Coco LaBouche with Jane Sibbett's character and Angelica with either Mary-Kate or Ashley (forget which).
* In ''Extreme Ops'', Kittie's pants rip when Will tries to pull her back up from hanging over the mountain, allowing him to see her panties. [[BareYourMidriff Some of her stomach shows as well.]]

* ''[=~That '70s Show~=]'' pulled this in an episode where Eric pantses Donna during a pick up basketball game, exposing some rather unflattering Sears Catalog bloomers and humiliating her. Eric apologizes at the end of the episode with the FamilyUnfriendlyAesop, "I shouldn't have pulled your pants down in public, once you started letting me pull them down in private."
* A favorite joke on ''TheSuiteLifeOfZackAndCody'', with the titular twins. It shows up a ''lot'' less in the spin-off, ''The Suite Life on Deck''.
* In ''Peewee's Playhouse'', Peewee is flying around the world and says "I see London... I see France... I see Moscow's underpants!"
* ''KamenRiderOOO'': As seen in this page's image, Eiji Hino suffers from this in his debut. Double points since it also serves as a MemeticOutfit.
* In {{Community}} Ahbed and Troy both pantsed eachother to the amusement of the other study group members. Pierce decides he wants in on the fun and pantses Shirley. He then learns the valuable lesson that it is never ''ever'' okay for a guy to pants a woman.
* Said on an episode of RickiLake featuring out-of-control teenage girls. All of them were dressed pretty slutty in DangerouslyShortSkirts, Ricki recited the chant from the top of the page when one of said girls was sitting with her legs uncrossed. It was onscreen, but if Ricki saw, the audience more than likely saw it too. Due to her size, they might've needed BrainBleach.

* On ''Series/HappyDays'', when the boys had to go for their army physicals and had to strip, Potsie's underwear had little hearts on them and Ralph's had a big lobster.
* On the first episode of ''Series/TheBigBangTheory'', Leonard and Sheldon go to retrieve Penny's TV from her heavily-muscular ex-boyfriend. The scene cuts to them leaving minus their pants.

[[folder:Web Original]]
* WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic had a rather infamous PantyShot in ''WebVideo/SuburbanKnights''. He was cosplaying [[Franchise/LegendOfZelda Link]] at the time in a tunic with no pants or leggings and WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick and WebVideo/ObscurusLupa were forced to bring to his attention the fact that they could see his balls. Everyone on the commentaries lampshaded the {{fanservice}} of the scene, and Critic himself called back to it in his review of ''DuckTales'', claiming fond memories.

** Wrestling/RicFlair has on more than one occasion been stripped down to his underwear, usually pastel-colored briefs.
** One ''Saturday Night's Main Event'' back in the 80's, Wrestling/JimmyHart got pulled out of his pants, revealing that he was wearing bright red briefs.

** In 2002, Wrestling/MollyHolly had a few instances (two on TV, plus house shows) where she was revealed as wearing granny panties, to go with the prude character she was playing at the time.
