* ''Film/ComingToAmerica'': During the truly cringeworthy performance by Randy Watson and Sexual Chocolate, the only one who likes it is Sweets the barber, much to the chagrin of his colleagues.

* ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'': During Creator/BrendanFraser's hosting stint, he decides to stop the show so he and Creator/WillFerrell can sing songs celebrating the friendship they developed during the week. The rest of the cast is creeped out... except for Creator/NormMacdonald, who smiles and cheers them on throughout all of the songs.

Can overlap with StockYuck, IncrediblyLameFun, StylisticSuck, EpicFail, LowCountGag, and LamePunReaction, and can also overlap with MuseumOfBoredom, ToughRoom, and NatureIsBoring (although those tropes are downplayed as they at least please ''one'' person). Compare and contrast the YMMV page FunForSome, which is for when a few people find something fun that was ''never'' meant to be fun and SlowClap for when only one person claps at first, but then gradually, everyone does. Also compare AbileneParadox for when ''no one'' wants to take the course of action, but everyone agrees because they mistakenly think each other wants it. Contrast SomebodyDoesntLoveRaymond, for when only one person ''dis''likes some''one''. Can sometimes invert EvenTheRatsWontTouchIt by having ''only'' a rat or whatever want it. Compare OnlyOneWhoLikesSpam for the food equivalent.

* In ''ComicBook/TheSimpsons'' comic "The Geek Shall Inherit the Earth", Doug and Troy [=McClure=] make a sci-fi film which bombs because Doug made it too scientifically accurate (there are [[AvertedTrope no]] sound effects [[SpaceIsNoisy during the space battles]], and the spaceships move slowly because he wouldn't allow faster-than-light travel). The last panel of the premier shows that the entire audience has left in annoyance except for Comic Book Guy, who enthusiastically proclaims it "a triumph".

* ''Film/StarTrekVITheUndiscoveredCountry'': When [=McCoy=] is on the witness stand during the trial, he is asked about his current medical status. He answers, "Aside from a touch of arthritis, I'd say pretty good." A single Klingon laughs his ass off while the rest of the courtroom is dead silent.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' episode "Xmas Story", Bender serves the crew a dead parrot he found lying in the street. Everyone hates it except for Nibbler, who eats it all.

* The first episode of ''WesternAnimation/FanboyAndChumChum'', "Wizboy", begins with wizard Kyle giving a rather drastic and realistic grand entrance. No student in the class seems to catch on except for Fanboy and Chum Chum, who cheer excitedly.
** The episode "Night Morning" has Fanboy invite the whole class over to watch what Chum Chum does in the morning at night...which is just his regular morning routine. However, only Fanboy likes what he's doing, while the rest of the class boredly take their money back and leave.

** Patrick is apparently the only character who likes eating Plankton's chum, and the only one who can handle eating it.

* ''[[Literature/{{Fudge}} Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing]]'': Similar to the ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' example below , Peter's father makes an omelet of dubious quality (Peter notes that he used an entire carton of eggs, while his mother only uses one or two). Peter tastes it and finds it hideous, but pretends to like it. His father tastes it and realizes that he made a horrible mistake. He scoops up the other plates and throws the omelet in the trash. Fudge starts screaming because he actually liked it.

* In Creator/LouisSachar's "Sideways Arithmetic from Wayside School", one of the problems involve members of Mrs. Jewls' deciding what game to play, with each of the participants having different conditions under which they will or will not participate in various options. The only solution that satisfies everyone's conditions results in [[AbileneParadox almost no one playing any game they really wanted to play]].

* In the ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'' ChristmasSpecial ''WesternAnimation/ArthursPerfectChristmas'', George brings a tin of lutefisk (dried and boiled fish), part of his Swedish family's holiday tradition, to school. Everyone pinches their noses and passes it around except for [[BizarreTasteInFood Buster]], who happily eats a piece and then scarfs down another.

** In "You Only Move Twice", Homer accepts a better-paying job with Globex Corporation and relocates the family to CompanyTown Cypress Creek. He enjoys the extra challenges and gets on well with his new boss, but every other member of the family finds something about the change that makes them miserable. Marge starts drinking wine out of boredom because their new house has too many gadgets that do all her chores for her, Bart gets humiliated when the new school puts him in a remedial class, and Lisa discovers she's allergic to all the new species of plants she encounters.

*** When Discord takes over Equestria and causes mass chaos, everypony works to rein it in except for Pinkie, who delights in the absurdity as much as Discord himself. When he returns in "Keep Calm and Flutter On," she's still constantly amused by his antics while the others are suspicious and angry.

** In the episode Sick Daze, Misty made a stew with practically every ingredient and it turned out so inedible, Ash wouldn’t even eat it. Hilariously Jessie enjoyed it, calling it a blend of sweet and sour flavors that tickled, teased and tantalized [her] trembling tastebuds, thinking it must be the creation of a genius chef.

** Played straight in an episode where Bill wants his family to see the positive side during a blackberry harvest and issues a "Live, Laugh, Love" propaganda where they must stay positive, [[HappinessIsManditory no matter what]]. Cricket and Gramma know it's wrong to force positivity, but Tilly immediately takes to it and sides with Bill.

** Patrick is apparently the only character who likes eating Plankton's chum.

* ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'': Toph is the only character to enjoy the completely biased Fire Nation-sponsored play recapping the Gaang's adventures (despite not being able to see it), in part because the play's version of her has much the same personality, if a laughably wrong physical profile (the play's Toph is a burly adult man instead of a twelve-year-old girl).

* ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'': In the "Sun and Moon" saga, when forming the Ultra Guardians, [[WomanChild Lusamine]] designs suits for the heroes that are {{Sentai}}-based because she thought it would be cool. Ash is the only one who agrees with her while everyone else cringes from them and finds the suits embarrassing to wear.

** In "Applebuck Season", Applejack is [[SleepDeprivation sleep-deprived]] and mishears the ingredients for Pinkie Pie's muffins, resulting in muffins made with potato chips, soda, lemon juice and earthworms. Not only do none of the ponies like them, they actually get sick, but Spike the dragon likes them and doesn't get sick.
** This is Justified by his draconian physiology. If he can swim in lava and eat gems like they were candy then some bad muffins aren’t going to get him sick.
** In "The Maud Couple", Maud tries to be a stand-up comedian, but only her sister Pinkie Pie finds the jokes funny.
** In "Equestria Games", Spike unintentionally chooses to sing the Cloudsdale anthem (he was expecting the Ponyville one to play), and given that he doesn't know any of the words, he sings his own poorly made rendition, inserting references to the Wonderbolts, Cloudsdale, nice trees, and wishing the song was over. Not one person in the audience is enthused...except Pinkie Pie, who smiles and bobs her head, and once he's finished, she belts out, "NAILED IT!!!"

* In ''ComicBook/TheSimpsons'' comic "The Geek Shall Inherit the Earth", Doug and Troy [=McClure=] make a Sci-Fi film which bombs because Doug made it too scientifically accurate (there are [[AvertedTrope no]] sound effects [[SpaceIsNoisy during the space battles]], and the spaceships move slowly because he wouldn't allow faster-than-light travel). The last panel of the premier shows that the entire audience has left in annoyance except for Comic Book Guy, who enthusiastically proclaims it "a triumph".

* In ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsRainbowRocks'', Snips and Snails are shown doing a freestyle rap that doesn't catch very much excitement from others, with only Pinkie Pie and Sonata Dusk liking it.
