** Also, Fry once made out with a radiator woman from a radiator planet, before learning that it was just a normal radiator.
*** Hey, you gotta admit she was hot.
** "Prisoner of Benda" gives us the oddly poignant story between Scruffy and his (robotic) wash bucket.
--->'''Scruffy:''' [[StarCrossedLovers I'm a man, and you're janitorial equipment.]]

The relationship ends by the end of the episode, with Spud claiming "''I'' broke up with ''you''!")
* ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' has a cutaway gag where Peter tried to marry a blueberry pie. ("Loooove you"). In the amount of time it took for the lawyer to get over his disbelief and retrieve the necessary papers to fill out, Peter had managed to eat the pie.
** Peter and a bag of fat that was sucked out of Lois's body. It was exactly what it looked like.
** Peter and a cardboard cutout of Kathy Ireland from the Drunken Clam. Which ended tragically after he broke her upon finding out she was with his son Chris.
** Peter and his Surfing Bird record, who he sleeps with his arms around and states, "I took it to bed, had sex with it..."
** New Brian and Stewie's teddy bear, Rupert.
*** Stewie and Rupert have a HoYay relationship.
** And there was also a cutaway gag about a woman catching an STD from a toilet.
** Meg and hot dogs.
* ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'':
** Mabel has been shipped with her grappling hook.
** In "Soos and the Real Girl", the end credits scene shows Grunkle Stan marrying Goldie (A novelty dispenser shaped like a prospector panning for gold) in [[VivaLasVegas Vegas.]]
** In "The Stanchurian Candidate", when Gideon is incarcerated, he says that he can't sleep because his cellmate took his pillow for a wife.
** Though uncommon, some fans ship Bill Cipher with his top hat. Fanfics of it can still be found if you look hard enough.
* [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Homer Simpson]] once had an illicit affair with a shish kebab.
** As well as a giant sandwich... let's just say Homer and food.
** "Oh, Television....teacher, mother, secret lover..."
** Moe and his bar rag are a canon example. The thing is actually his best friend. At one point he also reveals he has a collection of photos of himself with his pickle jar, including one depicting them lying together on a beach, and he mourns when it gets shot.
** "Are you hugging the TV?!" "[[BlatantLies No!]]"
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'': Olaf the emperor penguin and his ice cube, Olga. He even claims that she is his "wife".
* On the RuleOfFunny-based side of canon, Spunky the dog on ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife'' fell in love with a mop in "Clean Lovin'". Following the series' proud tradition of {{demographically inappropriate humour}}, there is even a scene that ''heavily'' implies Spunky ''actually had sex with it''.
** The psychologist Rocko hires to cure Spunky of the fixation also [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments winds up fixated on the mop]], and is shown taking it on a date near the end of the episode.
** Heffer and a milking machine.
* ''Franchise/Ben10''×[[EmpathicWeapon Omnitrix]].

** Danny and the Girl's Locker Room.
** Danny and a lamp
** Also, Tucker and his PDA.

* Canon example: ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' and the Krabby Patty in "To Love a Patty" -- one kept unrefrigerated long enough to have ''mold''. And in what is the funniest and/or most disgusting part of the episode, at the end, ''[[NauseaFuel he eats it, mold, fungus and all]]''. Now ''that's'' true love.
** The early episode "Just One Bite" included a montage where Squidward falls in love with, marries, and grows old with a Krabby Patty. It's a DreamSequence, but still.
** [=SpongeBob=]×Spatula.
** Mr. Krabs×[[MoneyFetish Money]]. One episode involved Plankton disguising as a sentient stack of money and eventually ''marrying'' Mr. Krabs.
** Squidward×Clari. He even sleeps with the instrument. "I've got a hot date with a little lady, and her name is Clarinet."
** Plankton and Karen. They're married in canon, and in one chapter they said their relationship started in junior high school or so...when Karen was just a security camera...
*** Since Karen is an AI this would probably be considered {{Robosexual}}.
** And there's Patrick who marries a street lamp, because of a lie made up by Mr. Krabs.
** LoveTriangle example in "Karen's Virus". Acting like a drunk due to the titular virus, Karen flirts with Mr. Krabs' cash register, much to his horror. Mr. Krabs then snatches the cash register from Karen, shouting "Don't break up our happy home!", then he tells the register "I forgive you, baby!" and gives it a smooch.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow'' has Elmer Fudd and a [[strike: gwilled]] grilled cheese sandwich.
** In another episode, Lola [[CloudCuckoolander gets into an entire conversation with an armoire]], and is seen telling it that she already has a boyfriend.
* One episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'' has The Monarch having sex with the broken down remains of Guard-O, the Venture Brothers' non-sentient security robot. This is even weirder in context: its monitor was displaying Dr. Venture's face, and he said he was trying to give it chlamydia.
** After building his own "Butter-Glider", he becomes obsessed with it to the point of sleeping with it and having rooftop picnics with it. His wife is unamused.
** Herr Trigger and his guns.
** Phantom Limb and Lady Nightshade (a.k.a. a woman's shoe)
** In the pilot they had a ninja trying to get hold of Dr. Ventures new invention. Not to steal it, but to do... other things with it.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama World Tour'', Beth starts a relationship with a pole, the same pole Bridgette made out with a couple of episodes before.
** Cody×Statue of Liberty, from when Cody fell into Art/LadyLiberty's cleavage. He also married a cactus in ''WesternAnimation/TotalDramarama''.
** Alejandro/Pineapple, from when Alejandro frenched a pineapple-headed effigy of Heather.
* A whole episode of ''WesternAnimation/{{Sixteen}}'' was dedicated to this trope with Jude and Betty the Massage Chair.
* Lurking amidst the murky sea of ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'' {{crack pairing}}s, pairings exist involving Zim's computer, Tak's ship, Zim's PAK (the backpack thing that's attached to his spine, filled with useful tools) and [[RobotBuddy GIR.]] The last one is a borderline example, however, and is often done in complete seriousness.
** Actually, there are some scenes in (at least) the episodes "Bloaty's Pizza Hog" and "Tak, the Hideous New Girl" which imply that GIR has a (obviously one-sided) little crush on Gaz.
** GIR×Rubber Piggy is practically canon.
* ''WesternAnimation/PerfectHairForever'': "Can you get this Vacuum cleaner to f*ck this cake?", Uncle Grandfather.
* ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'' features canonical Constructicons×nonsentient cars.
** There's also WesternAnimation/BeastWars Megatron×WesternAnimation/BeastWars Megatron's Beast Mode Head. He's actually seen petting it like a RightHandCat sometimes, and there's scenes like the time it looks around while Megs is 'asleep,' or Megatron turning away from the screen and his head-hand quickly turns to look at it, as if sneaking a peak when Megatron isn't paying attention. However, it has little in the way of support compared to the true {{OTP}} of Beast Wars: Megs×rubber ducky.
* ''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends'': With most characters being steam locomotives, the list is ''long''. [[FanPreferredCouple Thomas/Emily]], [[ToyShip Thomas/Rosie]], [[SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan Thomas/Molly]], [[BelligerentSexualTension James/Emily]], [[FanPreferredCouple James/Molly]], [[NoYay Toby/Mavis]], etc. Due to the overwhelming amount of male characters, Cargo ''{{Yaoi}}'' Shippings are arguably more popular than the above pairings listed. Generally Thomas/Percy, Edward/James and Gordon/Henry are accepted, either seriously or just for the hell of it.

* At the end of ''WesternAnimation/MadagascarEscape2Africa'', Skipper of the Penguins marries a Hawaiian doll.
** Then there is the spin-off series ''WesternAnimation/ThePenguinsOfMadagascar'' that shows both Rico and Julien showing interest in a large Barbie doll. Even Skipper makes a subtle pass at her. Miss the wife already, Mr. Married-man?
** One episode has Kowalski falling in love with the animal control van.
** Julien had a vaguely disturbing semi-HoYay semi-{{Narcissist}}ic obsession with "Lemmy", the robot version of himself, and Mort was jealous of it. Then, at the end of the episode, it gets dragged offscreen by a space squid and is never seen again.
** "Quiet, Maurice! I am wooing the smoothie!"
* In ''WesternAnimation/CourageTheCowardlyDog'', a goose god falls in love with Eustace's truck because of the sound of its horn, and eventually ascends with the truck to heaven (they get a new truck). In a later episode there's a quick cameo of the goose god cuddling it on a fluffy cloud.
* Never explicitly shown in the series, but Ro and Zeta from ''WesternAnimation/TheZetaProject'' are a very justifiable example of this trope.
* Creator/BillPlympton, having a taste for the bizarre, has some:
