* In the ''WesternAnimation/BigCityGreens'' "Random Rings" short "Cricket and Tilly Call Area 51", Cricket and Tilly call a store called Area 51 Comics, but believe they're actually calling ''the'' Area 51 and talking with an alien race. Izzy, the cashier, realizes how naïve and foolish the children are, and plays on their gullibility to keep up the act with them, and when Cricket reveals she's been faked out, she tricks them into hanging up in a panic by making them believe agents will be coming to their home.

* In one episode of ''Series/ICarly'' Freddie is accused of being this by his peers after he's tricked into going to school under the guise of it being "Dressup as a Clown Day". Freddie becomes desprate to disprove this perception when he's informed [[PolarOppositeTwin Sam has a twin who's the exact opposite of her named Melanie]] that Freddie has never met before. So throughout the episode, Freddie tries to goad Melaine into acting like Sam and constantly questions every reason for one of the twins supposedly having to leave [[MissedHimByThatMuch right before the other arrives]]. By the end of the episode, Freddie gets Sam and Carly to admit Melaine doesn't exist and they were just pranking him... only for us to see Sam and Melanie [[RealAfterAll as separate people]] right after Freddie left Carly's apartment, ironically proving Freddie to be this trope after all.

* ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'': Zim believes everything he's told by the Almighty Tallest, regardless of how ridiculous it is. During "The Nightmare Begins", he gets assigned to a target that is ''clearly a Post-It note stuck to the side of the map'' and never doubts that he's on a Secret Mission for a second.

* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'': Fluttershy tends to [[ZigZagged zig-zag]] with this. Her kind nature more-or-less makes her an easy target for manipulation, as shown in the episodes "It Ain't Easy Being Breezies" and "Daring Doubt". That being said, Fluttershy ''can'' understand when she's being taken advantage of like when trying to reform Discord, she immediately sees what Discord has been doing behind her back and in the same episode, she takes offense when her friends imply that she, in her own words, is a "silly, gullible fool". Most of these situations can be a case of DependingOnTheWriter though.

* Starfire from ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans2003'' lacks experience with Earth culture and tends to accept explanations without a second thought, since the culture difference is so large that it's hard to tell crazy from crazy.
