* In the episode "Night of the Ninja" of ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'', Bruce explains to fellow prisoner Summer that they escaped because Batman arrived and took down the bad guy. Hey, his voice changed so it was mostly true...
* In ''WesternAnimation/BeavisAndButthead'', this exchange between the titular duo and Mr. Manners who has come to class to teach etiquette is technically true, hilariously so, when he chastizes them for making farting noises while he's trying to speak:
--> '''Mr. Manners:''' Um, excuse me boys but it's rather rude to make noises and interrupt me when it's my turn to speak!
--> '''Butthead:''' Uh... we were doing this ''long'' before you came in, sir.
--> '''Beavis:''' Yeah! ''You'' interrupted ''us''! Butthole!
* In 1980 when CBS first aired the special ''WesternAnimation/BugsBunny's Bustin' Out All Over'', TV listings and promos stated that in a separate segment after a thirty-year chase, the Coyote finally catches the Road Runner. In that segment (since billed as the short subject "Soup or Sonic", the Coyote chases the Road Runner through a series of pipes that progressively gets smaller that both come out small. They retreat the other way, and the Road Runner regains his size while the Coyote is still tiny. The Coyote doubles back and, yes, he does grab the Road Runner's leg. However, when he sees the Road Runner giant size in contrast to himself, he holds up the following signs:
-->"Okay, wise guys, you always wanted me to catch him..."\\
"'''Now''' what do I do?"
* As the above Amulet of Eternal Life, Xanatos, from ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'', discovered a cauldron which allowed a person to live "as long as the mountain stone". He was smart enough to test it first. [[LiteralMetaphor Yup]], ''[[TakenForGranite stone]]''.
* ''WesternAnimation/HerculesTheAnimatedSeries'': Jason explains why he seeks the Golden Fleece; it can allegedly span across the widest chasm, make flowers grow in the desert, and even turn an old man's hair from gray to black. Jason is initially disappointed when the Fleece's powers turn out to be considerably less than advertised, but he eventually reasons that it has spanned the chasm between him and his estranged crew, and made the flower of hope bloom in the desert of despair. (And he's noticed some highlights in his hair.)
* ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueUnlimited'': When the team in "[[Recap/JusticeLeagueUnlimitedS2E4TaskForceX Task Force X]]" argues they have no chance against the League, Clock King declares they are going to infiltrate the Watch Tower at its weakest roll call of supers. When Captain Boomerang ask him to define "weakest", Clock King plays a PhotoMontage of ComicBook/CaptainAtom, Franchise/GreenLantern and ComicBook/MartianManhunter with [[ScareChord ominous music]]. Nobody feels better about it. Technically, Clock King is correct, as only three League members would be their weakest point from a personnel standpoint. Apparently them being three of the strongest individual members of the League doesn't change that assessment (the infiltrators really need to avoid confronting ''any'' of the League members, so numbers are more important than individual power).
* ''WesternAnimation/KimPossibleMovieSoTheDrama'': Eric tells Kim that his "mission" is to take her to the prom. Well, [[TheMole it is]].
* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'':
** In the episode "The Last Roundup", Applejack, who prides herself on her commitment to honesty, is faced with an insoluble dilemma when she's forced to promise to tell her friends why she refused to come back home but finds the reason so shameful she doesn't want to tell anyone. [[LoopholeAbuse The best she can do is to promise she'll tell them at breakfast the next morning -- and then never show up for breakfast, claiming that makes the promise she had no intention of fulfilling not false]].
** Like Xelloss above, Discord has never lied in any of his appearances, save one little "I'm innocent." He's never told the entirety of the truth, however, such as when he says he "can't claim responsibility" for something that ultimately turns out to be a plan of his that went off thousands of years later than planned or, in his first appearance, told Applejack that their quest would split the group up, which is something he caused himself.
* ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' has an example in [[Recap/RickAndMortyS1E1Pilot the pilot episode]]. To get Morty to open fire on some alien armed guards, Rick tells him that the guards are [[JustAMachine just robots.]] However, the one Morty hits screams in agony and bleeds out, leading to this exchange:
-->'''Morty:''' They're not robots, Rick!\\
'''Rick:''' It's a figure of speech, Morty. They're bureaucrats; I don't respect them.
* ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'' turned it into a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSOBeD1GC_Y full blown musical]] for their Star Wars special.
-->'''Luke:''' Could you be a little bit more specific because [[[SiblingIncest Leia and I]]] kinda made out.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':
** In "Marge Gets A Job", Marge decides to apply for a job at the nuclear plant, but the only experience she has to list on her resume is homemaker. Lisa helps her pad it with work experience like "chauffeur", "seamstress", "worked for the Carter administration" (she voted for him twice), and "curator of large animals" (cue a bulging, hairy Homer).

* ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsRebels'' reveals that Captain Rex of ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'' had survived into the Imperial Era and had been living out in retirement. When the titular rebels come for his aid, Kanan Jarrus (a Jedi and an Order 66 survivor to boot) doesn't trust Rex at all, mostly because [[FantasticRacism he's a clone]], and it was the clones that betrayed the Jedi. Rex points to a scar on his head, indicating the inhibitor chip that made the clones carry out Order 66 was removed, leaving him to reveal that he never betrayed his Jedi. When ''The Clone Wars'' returned, it was revealed that this trope was in play: [[spoiler: he DID carry out Order 66 and almost killed Ahsoka; it's just that Ahsoka wasn't a Jedi, ergo he never betrayed "his" Jedi (presumably Anakin), not to mention it was Ahsoka that removed his chip in the first place, preventing him from carrying out the order any further, and to top it off he also did everything in his power to resist the Order giving Ahsoka the vital clue she needed in order to free Rex and save herself]].
* ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'', "We Need to Talk". Garnet tells Greg she believes he can [[FusionDance fuse]] with Rose Quartz if he does it in his own way. He fails to actually physically fuse — but the attempt leads to a moment of new openness and trust and connection between the pair, which is one of the most important aspects of fusion. Both Garnet and Amethyst recognize the result as a "fusion", even though nothing happened physically. This is lost on [[LiteralMinded Pearl]], however.
