** Johnny Lawrence's son Robby Keene despises his father's main karate student, Miguel Diaz, as he sees Johnny using Miguel to get the father-son relationship he could never accomplish with Robby. In season 1, seeing Johnny giving his gi to Miguel (as a reward for beating up Kyler's crew at school) drives Robby to take a job at Daniel [=LaRusso=]'s auto dealership to spite his father. He eventually gets over it thanks to Daniel's teachings. But it quickly surfaces again in Season 2 as he begins to fall for Daniel's daughter Sam, who happens at this point to be Miguel's ex-girlfriend. Robby reacts increasingly badly to Miguel's attempts to reconcile with Sam, culminating in him breaking Miguel's spine in the season 2 finale after losing his temper with his rival's attempts to show mercy. During his time in juvie, his resentment towards Miguel only increases as Johnny blows off a visit to be with Miguel's family, leaving him open to manipulation from [[EvilMentor John Kreese]]. When he gets out of juvie late in season 3 and catches Sam having an intimate moment with Miguel, he tries to attack Miguel ''again'', and when Sam inevitably steps in to defend Miguel, Robby decides to throw his lot in with Kreese to spite both his dad ''and'' Daniel.
** Upon joining Cobra Kai in season 2, Tory Nichols falls for Miguel, and is very upset when she finds out that he still has feelings for Sam, who Tory already hates for her privileged background. she meets Sam who seemingly doesn't have a care in the world, proudly claims she's a thief to her and then gets furious when Sam ([[NotMeThisTime incorrectly]]) accuses her of stealing her mother's wallet.[[note]]Actually the work of Trey and Cruz, Robby's former delinquent accomplices[[/note]] She quickly develops a crush on Miguel, then finds out Sam is Miguel's ex-girlfriend. Their next interaction is at 80's night where Tory's working hard whilst Sam's out on date, which makes Tory angry, and she's insecure enough about Miguel's efforts to reconnect with Sam that she trips Sam for just talking to Miguel. She taunts Sam into a dangerous drinking game at Moon's party and loses to her (which makes her even angrier). Then she witnesses Miguel cheat on her with Sam, which is just the final straw. On the first day of school, she storms into the school's announcer's office, assaults the teacher, hijacks the intercom, and calls out Sam for a fight wherein Tory's actively trying to maim her. Tory loses that challenge to Sam as well, and bolts before she finds out about Miguel. She's expelled from school for her actions and placed on probation. Rather than let go of her grudge and stitch her life back together, the only lesson she takes from this is that the judicial system is rigged by the rich people to punish the poor, as everyone other than Robby and her get away scot-free from the school brawl. Miguel takes issue with her over that fact (understandable, as he got severely injured while Tory only got knocked down a flight of stairs by Sam) but Tory can't believe anyone from Cobra Kai would go against her, and learning from Kreese that Miguel is back with Sam and helped save the All-Valley Tournament prompts Tory to lead a gang assault on Sam and her Miyagi-Do peers in her house and beat her up with nunchucks, while siccing Kyler to attack a still recovering Miguel.
** In season 1, when Miguel sees Robby having dinner with the [=LaRussos=] (on Daniel's invitation) and witnesses Sam laugh with him over Daniel's training methods, he gets jealous. Then when Sam doesn't answer his texts the next day and sees Robby escorting Sam to the Cobras' beach party (in reality, Sam had been grounded and her mom had taken away her phone, and Robby brought her to the party so she could tell Miguel what happened), he gets drunk and tries to fight Robby.

** Oh come on, Talyn gets all his ideas and feelings from Crais, pretty much. He's just a very powerful baby who wanted his Mummy and Daddy to stay together - though, admittedly, the [[spoiler:fake sex tape of Crais and Aeryn]] isn't something most toddlers would come up with.

** Finally, Mara got nasty during the end of season 3, when she bullied Joy over falling for Jerome. She had meant to just have her friend pretend to like him as revenge for him cheating on her with Willow, but instead the two of them actually fell for each other. Mara revealed she was jealous soon after, calling Jerome ''her'' boyfriend and getting mad at Joy for liking him. Eventually they reconciled, and like the other cases, she helped Jerome and Joy get back together.

* ''Series/LukeCage2016'': In season 2, Mariah reconnects with her daughter Tilda. This does not go over well with Shades, who almost feels like he's being pushed aside (especially since Mariah often tends to treat him like just another underling in her gang rather than an equal).

* During ''Series/{{Selfie}}'', this trope pops up a little between Henry and Eliza-despite not being in a relationship, the two have feelings for each other and this tends to come out when they talk about other people. Henry says Eliza's sex buddy Freddy is a tool, and Eliza gets a way bigger dose of this trope when Henry dates Julia, insulting her height, and trying to come between the couple so as to not lose out on spending time with Henry.

* PlayedForLaughs in order to alleviate the high levels of tension in an otherwise rather grim and humourless episode of ''Series/{{Sherlock}}'' (which is known - and loved - for its dry wit): [[TheLancer John]] spends the entirety of ''A Scandal in Belgravia'' reveling in barely-concealed jealousy over how much attention [[ObliviousToLove Sherlock]] awards [[RomanticFalseLead Irene]], to the point where his GirlOfTheWeek breaks up with him for being a better boyfriend to ''Sherlock'' than he is to ''her''. John becomes completely incensed after [[spoiler:the first time Irene fakes her own death]], threatening her in an attempt to convince her to tell Sherlock that [[spoiler:she's still alive]]. This doesn't stop him from feeling sorry about her [[spoiler:apparent death]] at the end of the episode. Sherlock himself suffers from the Green-Eyed Monster whenever something other than the case they're working on distracts John.

** Johnny Lawrence's son Robby Keene despises his father's main karate student, Miguel Diaz, as he sees Johnny using Miguel to get the father-son relationship he could never accomplish with Robby. In season 1, seeing Johnny and Miguel's relationship drives Robby to take a job at Daniel [=LaRusso=]'s auto dealership to spite his father. He eventually gets over it thanks to Daniel's teachings.

Miguel takes issue with her over that fact (understandable, as he got severely injured and she merely got knocked down) but Tory can't believe anyone from Cobra Kai would go against her, and learning from Kreese that Miguel is back with Sam and helped save the All-Valley Tournament prompts Tory to lead a gang assault on Sam in her house and beat her up with nunchucks.

* ''Series/SexLife'': Cooper grows increasingly jealous of Billie's ex Brad due to her racy diary relating their relationship, and insecure in comparison with him.

** Johnny Lawrence's son Robby Keene despises his father's main karate student, Miguel Diaz, as he sees Johnny using Miguel to get the father-son relationship he could never accomplish with Robby. In season 1, seeing Johnny and Miguel's relationship drives Robby to take a job at Daniel [=LaRusso=]'s auto dealership to spite his father. He eventually gets over it thanks to Daniel's teachings. But it quickly surfaces again in Season 2 as he begins to fall for Daniel's daughter Sam, and reacts increasingly badly to Miguel's attempts to reconcile with Sam, culminating in him breaking Miguel's spine in the season 2 finale after losing his temper with his rival's attempts to show mercy. When he gets out of juvie in season 3 and finds Sam back together with Miguel, he tries to attack Miguel ''again'', and decides to throw his lot in with John Kreese.

** Upon joining Cobra Kai in season 2, Tory Nichols falls for Miguel, and is very upset when she finds out that he still has feelings for Sam, who Tory already hates for her privileged background. Seeing Miguel cheat on her with Sam prompts Tory to pick a fight with Sam at school with the intention of maiming her. And in season 3, Tory goes out of her way to antagonize Sam during the laser tag fight, and leads her gang to attack the [=LaRussos=]' house upon learning from Kreese that Sam is back with Miguel and they worked together to save the All-Valley Tournament.

** Mickey has a general attitude of jealousy towards the Doctor for "stealing" Rose from him for the duration of the first series.

* In ''Series/{{Charite}}'', medicine student Georg Tischendorf doesn't take it well that Ida, the nurse he's been courting, has been given an anatomy textbook by Doctor Behring, and it becomes worse when he sees them sitting together having a lively discussion about medical knowledge. He confronts Ida about it, rather putting her off. Note that Doctor Behring is jealous, too, but he's a lot more gracious about it towards Ida -- he'll rather openly offend Tischendorf in the auditorium.

* ''Series/DarkDesire'': Possibly {{subverted}} though later as she kisses Karina again after having had a straight relationship that didn't work out.

* ''Series/ICarly'': Freddie suffers this in ''[=iLike=] Jake'' and ''[=iDate=] A Bad Boy''. Carly also gets this like [[UpToEleven whoa]] during the recut version of ''[=iSaved=] Your Life''. When another girl comes up to Freddie and [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar offers him weekend sex with her]] whilst her parents and brothers are away, Carly grabs Freddie by the shoulder, embraces him and starts kissing him so the girl will take the hint that Freddie is taken, much to his surprise (and approval).

* ''Series/DoctorWho'': In [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E12ThePandoricaOpens "The Pandorica Opens"]], Rory has a brief moment of this when he discovers Amy's gotten a blanket from one of the Roman soldiers, wanting to know which one. Of course, [[spoiler:Amy doesn't remember who he is yet, since he got {{retgone}}d a few episodes back.]]

* One of the longest running jokes in ''Series/EverybodyLovesRaymond'' is how much Robert envies his brother, Raymond. In his rants, he would talk about how "[[TitleDrop Everybody loves Raymond]]", how his mother favors Ray over him, how successful Ray is compared to him, and how he has a better life than him (at least in his eyes). It gets to the point that whenever Ray fails at something or doesn't get what he wants, Robert finds joy in this and openly mocks him for his shortcomings.

** Rachel and Phoebe are also this towards Monica and Chandler relationship, as they're depressed about not having anyone themselves. Lampshaded in Season 6 when Chandler's planning to propose and they say they're only 2% jealous...then 10%...then 20%...
** Ross towards Paolo. Actually, Ross is this repeatedly. When they begin dating, he is extremely jealous of Rachel's colleague Mark, despite the fact that Rachel shows no romantic interest in him. He is also jealous of Emily's burgeoning friendship with Susan (Carol's lesbian lover), believing she will steal Emily from him. Monica points out that his divorce from Carol must have really done a number on Ross since in high school, Ross was not a jealous person despite the fact that ALL of his girlfriends were cheating on him.

*** Although not in a romantical sense, he is jealous of Ser Barristan Selmy.

** Patricia has a tendency to be possessive and insecure about her relationships in general, getting jealous when Fabian was spending more time with Nina (who Patricia was bullying at this time in the show). She got much more jealous over Eddie, when he spent time with people like Mara, KT or Sophia, as it was all she could really think about a lot of the time.

* On ''Series/TheParadise'', Katherine Glendenning is jealous because Moray, her boyfriend and later fiancé can't seem to forget his dead wife. She considers this this the reason they have not married yet. She tries to remove her painted portrait from his office without permission. Once Denise Lovett, the new shopgirl, catches the eye of Moray, Katherine changes targets. Her envy is greater because Denise was able to make John Moray forget Mrs. Moray while she couldn't. Katherine does not allow Moray [[spoiler:to break up the engagement. She waits until the day of the wedding to do it herself. She exiles Moray and thanks to her rich banker dad, now she owns The Paradise, Moray's life's work.]]
* In ''Series/RobinHood'', Guy of Gisborne envied Robin his popularity and status as a national hero, and the love of Marian.

* In ''Series/{Charite}'', medicine student Georg Tischendorf doesn't take it well that Ida, the nurse he's been courting, has been given an anatomy textbook by Doctor Behring, and it becomes worse when he sees them sitting together having a lively discussion about medical knowledge. He confronts Ida about it, rather putting her off. Note that Doctor Behring is jealous, too, but he's a lot more gracious about it towards Ida -- he'll rather openly offend Tischendorf in the auditorium.

%%* Done literally in ''Series/SabrinaTheTeenageWitch''.

* During ''Series/{{Selfie}}'', this trope pops up a little between Henry and Eliza-despite not being in a relationship, the two have feelings for each other and this tends to come out when they talk about other people. Henry says Eliza's sex buddy Freddy is a tool, and Eliza gets a way bigger dose of this trope when Henry dates Julia, insulting her height, and trying to come between the couple so as to not lose out on spending time with Henry.
* In ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' Faith envies Buffy for being the "main" slayer, having friends, family, love, acceptance, etc. So she envies Buffy's life in general -- right until [[spoiler:she has to lead the charge herself.]]
* In both ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' and its spin-off ''Series/{{Angel}}'', Angel has been shown quite frequently -- despite having left Buffy for her sake -- to openly display jealousy toward Buffy's love interests or suitors, especially to Riley and Spike. This is likewise the case with Spike. The episode "The Girl In Question" has them try to find her when they find out she was dating their former rival, their excuse being they were worried about her.
* The brotherly relationship between Series/{{Frasier}} and Niles Crane is ''dominated'' by this trope.
* ''Series/{{Farscape}}'' had an episode actually called Green-Eyed Monster, in which Crais' jealousy of Crichton (and vice-versa) nearly led to Crichton's death. It also led to John telling Aeryn about his feelings, again. To be fair, the near death was courtesy of Talyn, not Crais. He actually had him ThrownOutTheAirlock.
** Oh come on, Talyn gets all his ideas and feelings from Crais, pretty much. He's just a very powerful baby who wanted his Mummy and Daddy to stay together - though, admittedly, the [[spoiler:fake sex tape of Crais and Aeryn]] isn't something most toddlers would come up with.
* ''Series/{{Friends}}'':
** Chandler experiences quite a bit of jealousy toward Richard, the ex-boyfriend of his girlfriend Monica, as he believes that Richard is still the love of Monica's life and Richard is sophisticated, mature, an eye doctor, ''and'' is able to grow a moustache. After they're married, Monica points out how silly this is given she chose him over Richard several times. As an InsecureLoveInterest, he has trouble acknowledging this. It's also worth remembering that ''all'' his previous girlfriends cheated on him, so his fears aren't exactly groundless.
** Rachel and Phoebe are also this towards Monica and Chandler relationship, as they're depressed about not having anyone themselves. Lampshaded in Season 6 when Chandler's planning to propose and they say they're only 2% jealous...then 10%...then 20%...
** Ross towards Paolo. Actually, Ross is this repeatedly. When they begin dating, he is extremely jealous of Rachel's colleague Mark, despite the fact that Rachel shows no romantic interest in him. He is also jealous of Emily's burgeoning friendship with Susan (Carol's lesbian lover), believing she will steal Emily from him. Monica points out that his divorce from Carol must have really done a number on Ross since in high school, Ross was not a jealous person despite the fact that ALL of his girlfriends were cheating on him.
* On ''Series/IDreamOfJeannie'', this was the entire motivation of Jeannie's [[EvilTwin lookalike sister]], jealously over everything she had, especially Major Nelson. It was ''not'' a coincidence that her outfit was a green version of Jeannie's pink one.
* In ''Series/DesperateHousewives'' episode ''Back in Business'', Mary Alice's ending narration focuses on the various types of envy, stating that if you look carefully at the people near you, you may spot a green-eyed monster.
* ''Series/ICarly'': Freddie suffers this in ''[=iLike=] Jake'' and ''[=iDate=] A Bad Boy''. Carly also gets this like [[UpToEleven whoa]] during the recut version of ''[=iSaved=] Your Life''. When another girl comes up to Freddie and [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar offers him weekend sex with her]] whilst her parents and brothers are away, Carly grabs Freddie by the shoulder, embraces him and starts kissing him so the girl will take the hint that Freddie is taken, much to his surprise (and approval).
* In ''Series/RobinHood'', Guy of Gisborne envied Robin his popularity and status as a national hero, and the love of Marian.
** In the third season, Kate envied Isabella and Guy because of Robin's continual obsession with all things Gisborne-related.

* Prince Arthur a couple of times on ''Series/{{Merlin|2008}}''. He responds to the sight of Lancelot and Guinevere holding hands by throwing a Big Sulk (and this is ''before'' he and Guinevere are in a relationship), and later gets riled at Gawaine for flirting with her. The fact that both knights have been reinstated at Camelot gives you the feeling that [[LoveTriangle this is heading somewhere]]...
* One of the longest running jokes in ''Series/EverybodyLovesRaymond'' is how much Robert envies his brother, Raymond. In his rants, he would talk about how "[[TitleDrop Everybody loves Raymond]]", how his mother favors Ray over him, how successful Ray is compared to him, and how he has a better life than him (at least in his eyes). It gets to the point that whenever Ray fails at something or doesn't get what he wants, Robert finds joy in this and openly mocks him for his shortcomings.
* ''Series/{{Mash}}'' has Margaret, who is jealous of Frank's wife. When she finds out Frank bought a set of expensive pearls for his wife and a second, cheaper set for her, Margaret devises a plan to get Frank to swap out the cheaper ones so she will have the more expensive necklace and Frank's wife will get the cheaper set.

* In ''Series/{{Community}}'' episode [[Recap/CommunityS1E21ContemporaryAmericanPoultry Contemporary American Poultry]] Jeff is gradually unseated as group leader by Abed. He is ''not'' happy about this.
-->'''Jeff:''' You want a shot at the Jeff Winger throne? [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments You better bring a powerful ass]]!
** More generally, Pierce frequently falls victim to this, being older and somewhat out of touch with the younger members of the study group. He is often left out, which leads him to become more of a jerk, which leads to him being left out even more.
* ''Series/{{Jessie}}'': Tony in the episode "Green-Eyed Monster".
* In the ''Series/{{Castle}}'' episode "Eye of the Beholder", Castle and Detective Beckett are joined on their investigation by Serena Kaye, a classy, attractive insurance investigator who is clearly attracted to Castle and whom Castle begins to find intriguing in return. Not entirely surprisingly, Beckett spends most of the episode seething with badly-concealed jealousy about this.
** In general, Beckett seems prone to struggling with her inner-teenager-with-a-case-of-this whenever other women attract Castle's attention. Castle, of course, returns the favour whenever other men take an interest in Beckett.
** In episodes since the characters have gotten married, however, this seems to be more PlayedForLaughs than anything on the occasions when it happens.
* ''Series/{{Chuck}}'':
** Sarah Walker puts her green-tinted contacts on whenever another female takes interest in the title character. In early seasons this is played for drama, as it often betrays the feelings she isn't supposed to have in a relationship that is supposed to be a mere spy cover. In later seasons, when they become a couple for real, these instances adopt a much more comedic angle, as Sarah is very good at driving away unwanted attention from her boyfriend. Once, when Chuck unthinkingly compliments another woman's looks, she shuts him up with a DeathGlare.
** Chuck himself is a bit better at this when Sarah gets other suitors, as he often (mistakenly) accepts that the other guy is a better match for her. The exception is when his former-friend-turned-nemesis (and Sarah's ex) Bryce Larkin is around, then he tends to get a little pouty.
* On ''Series/{{Leverage}}'', Parker is this during the episode "The Double Blind Job" with regard to Hardison being friendly with the client. She later breaks a beer bottle as she is watching them talk.

* PlayedForLaughs in order to alleviate the high levels of tension in an otherwise rather grim and humourless episode of ''Series/{{Sherlock}}'' (which is known - and loved - for its dry wit): [[TheLancer John]] spends the entirety of ''A Scandal in Belgravia'' reveling in barely-concealed jealousy over how much attention [[ObliviousToLove Sherlock]] awards [[RomanticFalseLead Irene]], to the point where his GirlOfTheWeek breaks up with him for being a better boyfriend to ''Sherlock'' than he is to ''her''. John becomes completely incensed after [[spoiler:the first time Irene fakes her own death]], threatening her in an attempt to convince her to tell Sherlock that [[spoiler:she's still alive]]. This doesn't stop him from feeling sorry about her [[spoiler:apparent death]] at the end of the episode. Sherlock himself suffers from the Green-Eyed Monster whenever something other than the case they're working on distracts John.
* While playing a conceited version of himself in ''Series/{{Extras}}'', Orlando Bloom seethes with jealousy over Johnny Depp:
-->''Ooh, look at me, I make art house movies! [[Film/EdwardScissorhands Ooh, I've got scissors for hands]]! [[Film/CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory Willy Wonka? Johnny Wanker!]]''
* ''Series/{{Scandal}}'': President Fitzgerald Grant. This comes out in "Hunting Season".
* ''Series/VeronicaMars'' has an episode called "Green-Eyed Monster", which takes this trope UpToEleven.
* ''Series/MythQuest'': In one episode, Cleo visits a Swahili fairy tale. The brother of the fairy tale's protagonist refuses to let her have any success, always claiming that whatever she earns belongs to him, despite how much wealth he already has.

* On ''Series/OnceUponATime,'' Zelena, the Wicked Witch of the West, physically turns green when she allows her envy get the better of her. Once she gets over the fact that Rumpelstiltskin chose Regina over her, she returns to normal. Then she gets envious when Dorothy Gale turns up in Oz and is prophesied to be TheChosenOne, so she turns green again.
* On ''Series/TheParadise'', Katherine Glendenning is jealous because Moray, her boyfriend and later fiance can't seem to forget his dead wife.She considers this this the reason they have not married yet. She tries to remove her painted portrait from his office without permission. Once Denise Lovett, the new shopgirl, catches the eye of Moray, Katherine changes targets. Her envy is greater because Denise was able to make John Moray forget Mrs. Moray while she couldn't. Katherine does not allow Moray [[spoiler:to break up the engagement. She waits until the day of the wedding to do it herself. She exiles Moray and thanks to her rich banker dad, now she owns The Paradise, Moray's life's work.]]
* On ''Series/StarTrekVoyager'', Neelix refers to jealousy as "that green-eyed pus-hog." Typically, he does so in reference to his own jealousy of what he thinks is Tom Paris trying to get too close to Kes. This leads to a food fight in the mess hall before they get sent on an away mission, during which they finally patch things up.
* One of the [[MonsterOfTheWeek Monsters Of The Week]] on ''Series/SleepyHollow'' was Ichabod's ex-betrothed, a woman who became an evil spirit after her death and targeted women that she considered romantic rivals.

However, she soon got over this and encouraged Mara to get back with Mick after their breakup.
** Patricia has a tendency to be possessive and insecure about her relationships in general, getting jealous when Fabian was spending more time with Nina (who Patricia was bullying at this time in the show). She got much more jealous over Eddie, when he spent time with people like Mara, KT or Sophia, as it was all she could really think about a lot of the time.
** Nina was pretty possessive over Fabian, to where she was angry when he merely spent a little time talking to Joy. This caused her to get very temperamental and snappy with him, while he was doing his best to keep ''both'' girls happy.
** Joy herself was pretty bad, taking her jealousy over Fabian and Nina to such extremes as to write a toxic article on Nina and publish it under Mara's blogging alias, Jack Jackal. Even Patricia, her best friend, found this disgusting. Joy eventually got over this and stepped down, agreeing to just be friends with him.
** Finally, Mara got nasty during the end of season 3, when she bullied Joy over falling for Jerome. She had meant to just have her friend pretend to like him as revenge for him cheating on her with Willow, but instead the two of them actually fell for each other. Mara revealed she was jealous soon after, calling Jerome ''her'' boyfriend and getting mad at Joy for liking him. Eventually they reconciled, and like the other cases, she helped Jerome and Joy get back together.
* In ''Series/TheKicks'', it's implied that Mirabelle's initial hostility towards Devin is because she's jealous of Devin's talent. Though Devin later admits she's a little jealous of Mirabelle too. They both get over it.`
* In the Series/AgentCarter episode [[Recap/AgentCarterS2E1TheLadyInTheLake "The Lady in the Lake"]], Agent Jack Thompson feels very intimidated by the way the men now look up to Peggy, hence why he sends her on a case all the way across the country in LA.
* Played for laughs in ''Series/{{Healer}}'' when Jung Hoo is just barely starting to come to terms with the fact that he may have romantic feelings for Young Shin her first crush buys the newspaper where she works and becomes their boss. Since she already told him she had a crush on the man he then spends several episodes going out of his way to get in between them while not dropping the persona of Bong Soo the incompetent coward.
* ''Series/{{Euphoria}}'':
** In "Made You Look" Rue gets ''very'' jealous when her best friend/crush Jules talks about her new male crush. It doesn't help that Jules enlists Rue to take pictures of her in her underwear to send to "Tyler" and asks Rue if she'd want to have sex with her if she saw those pictures.
** In "Shook One: Part II", Lexi does not look too thrilled when Gia tells her that she thinks Rue is in love with Jules.
