* Scores of peasants in ''MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail''. "He must be a king... [[TheDungAges he hasn't got shit all over him]]."

* ''{{Discworld}}'' series

* ''{{The Red Green Show}}'': Winston Rothschild, III, owns and operates a very successful sewage and septic sucking service.
* In an episode of ''Series/LawAndOrderSpecialVictimsUnit'', [[SickSadSubcultureOfTheWeek a gamer couple]] are facing charges of abusing their daughter. Benson notes that they haven't showered in awhile.

* Followers of Nurgle in ''{{Warhammer}}'' and ''{{Warhammer 40000}}'' take pride in being physically filthy and disease-ridden (morally filthy to boot).
** Not really. Good and evil are very relative things in Warhammer. They're actually the nicest people in the setting, it's just that their way of showing it involves turning other people into this, and often with fatal results.

* One generic NPC sprite in ''{{Earthbound}}'' is a dirty young boy [[{{Captain Ersatz}} who looks remarkably like Pig-Pen himself.]]

* Pauline from ''{{Our Little Adventure}}'' apparently 'smells like a really good salad bar.'

* The Poopsmith from ''HomestarRunner'', due to his job.
** Coach Z's hygiene seems to be rather suspect as well.
** Also The Ugly One, who specifically rejoices in that she can stop showering when Cheerleader dies.

* Oscar the Grouch from ''SesameStreet'' lives in a garbage can.

* ''{{Glee}}'': Apparently the guy who sits next to Kurt in English, although he doesn't ''look'' that filthy.

* In an episode of ''LawAndOrderSVU'', [[SickSadSubcultureOfTheWeek a gamer couple]] are facing charges of abusing their daughter. Benson notes that they haven't showered in awhile.

* [[{{Kesha}} Ke$ha]]'s stage persona involves wearing makeup and glitter in such a way they resemble filth, and having unkempt, unwashed-looking hair. She also has a {{Tumblr}} dedicated to pictures of [[http://putyourbeardinmymouth.tumblr.com/ men putting their beards in her mouth]].
* In "Another One Rides the Bus," WeirdAlYankovic briefly mentions a passenger who "hasn't showered in a year."

There is some TruthInTelevision, as people used to rarely bathe or keep themselves clean. But as inventions such as electricity, indoor heating and indoor plumbing became more commonplace, walking around in a large layer of grime became rarer.

** Not really. Good and evil are very relative things in Warhammer. They're actually the nicest people in the setting.

* British newspaper strip ''ComicStrip/ThePerishers'' had Dirty [=McSquirty=], sometimes called St Flies because flies kept circling his head like a halo. Pretty much a one-joke character. (His Cousin Worsoff was the proverbial person who's worse off than everyone else. Worsoff lived in the sewers and [[TheVoice was only heard, not seen]].)

* While it was not her most [[CuteBruiser notable]] [[{{Badass}} characteristic]], Toph from ''AvatarTheLastAirbender'' liked to walk around in "a healthy coating of earth," partly because she was an Earthbender, partly to rebel against her posh parents.

* {{Ke$ha}}'s stage persona involves wearing makeup and glitter in such a way they resemble filth, and having unkempt, unwashed-looking hair. She also has a {{Tumblr}} dedicated to pictures of [[http://putyourbeardinmymouth.tumblr.com/ men putting their beards in her mouth]].

* In the ''MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic" episode "Hearts and Hooves Day", the song "The Perfect Stallion" briefly featured a filthy, smelly, fly-drawing stallion, whose cutie mark was a TRASH CAN.

* The Gelato Man from ''AlphaProtocol''. Mike quips that he's at risk from catching malaria just from standing in his establishment. [[spoiler:It helps keep down the customers and thus hide the NSA listening post in his shop.]]

* ''Literature/EdgarAndEllen''. One time in the animated series, Ellen got sprayed with an anti-bug formula, which made a bunch of bugs come jumping out of her hair.

* MichelleRodriguez in practically every movie she does. [[FetishFuel And it only]] [[UnkemptBeauty makes her hotter]].

* Black Mage from ''EightBitTheater''. He repeatedly claims that the smell is his spell components, but nobody buys it.

* Dayton "Mole" Moliere from ''AtlantisTheLostEmpire'' is the team's geologist. He's also obsessed with dirt and soil, and at one point Dr. Sweet gets him off Milo's back with a bar of soap.
