* ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders]]'': After [[spoiler: seemingly]] cornering a [[FountainOfYouth de-aged]] Polnareff into a small room, Alessi starts breaking down the door and pokes his head through the hole.

* One ''Series/MythBusters'' episode started with an AxCrazy Jamie hunting down Tory, and included a "Here's Jamie!" as part of the intro for the episode.

This trope is actually far OlderThanTheyThink--the scene itself is a ShoutOut to one from the 1921 silent film ''Film/ThePhantomCarriage'', where the main character does the same to get at his family, while Jack's catchphrase (which [[ThrowItIn wasn't even in the script]]) is actually one to Ed [=McMahon=], the announcer of television {{Long Runner|s}} ''Series/TheTonightShow'' who would introduce host Creator/JohnnyCarson with a very drawn-out "Heeeeeeeeere's Johnny!" since the very first episode in 1962. While the catchphrase was very famous in television history at the time, it wasn't until ''The Shining'' that the public conscience forever associated it with the AxCrazy Jack Torrance, followed by many future works referencing or spoofing his famous scene to the point of becoming a {{Stock Parod|ies}}y in its own right.

* ''Manga/PrincessResurrection'': Chapter 48 somewhat does this. A house similar to Hime's suddenly appears and the protagonists venture inside. It looks similar save for a photo of people at a party raising their glasses, among which is Hime's sister.

As they try to make sense of things during the brief respite, Sawawa hacks her way into the room. She peers through the hole she made but doesn't say the line.
