History Main / AnAesop

** Reaches critical mass in the BonusBoss fight with [[spoiler: Hanekoma]], who spends the whole fight spewing inspirational catchphrases at you as he kicks your ass.

* WhatTheFuckIsWrongWithYou caps off every live recording with what they learned from the night's bizarre news stories, sometimes also veering into SpoofAesop and FamilyUnfriendlyAesop. There are even some recurring aesops, like "No one wants to see your dick" and "There's nothing sexy at the Wal-Mart."

* The whole point of ''{{Thundercats}}''. Seriously. This was during the time when cartoons where the scourge of the Earth and were corrupting kids (in the same way that Comic Books did before and Video Games are now ... oh wait!), so the producers sat down and said that every episode must have a moral, and they ''actually hired a child psychologist'' to help them write the stories.
** ''WesternAnimation/{{Thundercats 2011}}'' continues this out of tradition, with a discernible lesson in most of its episodes.

* WesternAnimation/YoungJustice episodes often have Aesops about Leadership, Teamwork or Strategy (which will probably be useful for any nascant super-teams watching) including such gems as:

** "Satisfaction": Intelligence and resourcefulness are more important than weapons or physical resources, this one was also delivered by the villain.

* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop - a moral that is unexpected and highly questionable.

* ''HighwayToHeaven'', the Christian drama starring Michael Landon and Victor French as itinerant workers who help the people they encounter deal with situations using a (though not explicitly stated) Christian solution. Said [[AnAesop moral]] would come usually toward the end of the episode, after which the person gets a chance to apply what he/she learned and/or any villains are defeated.

* The first three seasons of the [[GarfieldAndFriends U.S. Acres]] animated series contained these, usually presented in EarWorm-worthy [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2DQ3T8rvlM&feature=plcp tunes such]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHK8W4YaP30&feature=plcp as these]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOUw6h607LQ three]].

* ''{{Taz-Mania}}'' often featured the characters saying at the end "What have we learned from this?", and usually concluding that they hadn't learned anything.

* ''SisterSister'' was full of these, ranging from the typical (such as stranger danger and the value of wise spending) to the more complex (such as Lisa dealing with her fear that she cannot compare to Ray's dead wife).

* Lampshaded in ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' (repeatedly) with their Wheel of Morality. "Wheel of Morality, turn turn turn. Tell us the lesson that we should learn."

* Many episodes of ''WesternAnimation/CareBears1980s'' deliver a moral at the end. Here is a sample.

** "The Cloud Worm": Share resources so everyone can get what they need.

* The teaching of tolerance is a big theme in the ''MassEffect'' series but nowhere is it more clear than at the end of [[spoiler:"Priority: Rannoch" in ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'']]: a planet is big enough for everyone--just put down your guns, blockheads, and you can share it all in peace.
