* This was practically the specialty of ''Magazine/{{Cracked}}'' Magazine:
** Several ''Series/MorkAndMindy'' parodies, apart from some BreakingTheFourthWall moments, could pass for real episodes. The corny dialogue was so dead on, some might wonder if the actual ''Mork and Mindy'' writers made them.
** In later years, their ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' parody pretty much played it straight as well - nothing at all like ''Magazine/{{Mad}}'' and its constant LampshadeHanging, [[NoFourthWall fourth-wall demolition]] and hilarious DeusExMachina endings.
** Cracked did a parody of ''Film/HotShots'' once. Yes, a parody [[Film/TopGun of a parody]]. They did ''Film/TheNakedGun'' films as well.

* ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin'': Senpai, the opponent of Week 6, was based on a combination of arrogant pretty boy characters and RomanceGame archetypes. One inspiration [=PhantomArcade=] names directly is Tamaki Suoh of ''Manga/OuranHighSchoolHostClub'', a series that itself played shoujo romance manga tropes of the day for laughs.

* A particular problem with British comedy shows in TheEighties was impressionists "doing" people like "Dame Edna Everage", "[[Series/SomeMothersDoAveEm Frank Spencer]]" and "[[Franchise/ThePinkPanther Inspector Clouseau]]", completely ignoring the fact that these were already comedy caricatures created by Barry Humphries, Michael Crawford and Creator/PeterSellers respectively, leaving absolutely nothing left to parody.

* ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'' episode "Quantity Time" ends with Helga and her father, Bob, watching "Rats: The Musical", a parody of ''Theatre/{{Cats}}''. The show depicts "Rats" as a musical that takes itself completely seriously, with an orchestral soundtrack, a LoveDodecahedron story arc, and a well-dressed couple in the audience lauding it for its artistry. This is the complete opposite of how ''Cats'' treats itself, with a contemporary pop soundtrack, highly-energetic choreography, and an ExcusePlot that only drops its silliness whenever it's time for Grizabella to sing. The aforementioned couple would most likely hate ''Cats'', just as Helga and Bob did with "Rats".

* ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'' played the ''Ginyu Force'' as a parody of sentai anime series. The Ginyu Force in ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' already ''were'' a parody of said anime, so they didn't actually add anything new with that. They did soon branch out though, with Recoome becoming wrestling personified, Jeice taking his being a Space Australian to extremes, Burter being extremely self-conscious about his speed and wanting to be special, and Guldo ending up becoming their resident ButtMonkey.

* The cancelled-after-one-chapter story ''Manga/CheatSlayer'' claimed isekai protagonists were terrible people, shown through some ''very'' unflattering CaptainErsatz versions of notable isekai characters. One of the characters shown is a parody of Aqua from ''LightNovel/{{Konosuba}}''... apparently unaware that ''Konosuba'' was already a parody of the genre, and its protagonist, Kazuma, is a [[LoserProtagonist self-centered loser]] who is respected by no one.
** Another character is a parody of Subaru from ''LightNovel/ReZero'', which while not being a straight-up parody, is more of a GenreDeconstruction where Subaru’s beliefs about isekai cliches are shown to be wrong and he has to learn to be a better person the hard way.

* One of the very last Creator/BobHope specials on NBC tried to lampoon the 1989 ''[[Film/Batman1989 Batman]]'' movie, and had Hope done up as Creator/JackNicholson's Joker. The dialogue had a light, derisive tone that evidently conflicted with the writers' view of serious superheroes and supervillains. Actually, the Joker takes this exact tone (he is named "the Joker" after all) and even volleyed [[RedundantParody the same sort of insults]] in the real movie as those the special featured.
