* ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'': Platonic example; for a girl who hates overt displays of affection, Louise won't hesitate to get a piggyback ride from her father.
** Bob gives her a piggyback ride in "Bob & Deliver" as the Home Ec-staurant rushes to the cafeteria. It should be noted that Bob didn't offer the ride--Louise got on without being prompted[[note]]he said "Hop on", but he was clearly referring to the food cart, which the other students were riding--and even then, the fact that Louise's mind defaulted to "piggyback ride" after hearing those words definitely implies ''something''[[/note]]. Even after she stops piggybacking, she can be seen holding onto Bob's arm.
** Bob gives her another piggyback ride in "Sea Me Now" as the Belchers and Teddy depart their boat for shore, likely because Louise is too short to walk through the water.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Jellystone}}'': In "The Brave Little Daddy," [[HomoeroticSubtext Jinks gives Huck a piggyback ride]]. It's really adorable, especially when Huck says "Downsies, please".
* ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'': Another platonic example; Jet is shown giving Mindy an adorable piggyback ride when they enter the house in "Project Pluto." This shows that he's a metaphorical CoolBigBro towards her.
* ''WesternAnimation/WorkItOutWombats'': Example between brothers; Malik is shown giving Zeke an adorable piggyback ride at the beginning of "Make It Snow."

* In ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'', the picture Mei takes with her family, friends and 4*Town has Abby piggybacking on Tae Young's back which given the significance this trope has in KoreanSeries, the fact that Abby is Korean and her feelings toward Tae Young means it's likely she was trying to invoke this trope.
