** Issue 34 has Fry create a clone of his ex-girlfriend Michelle, who isn't happy about being cloned naked and is eventually clothed when Amy gives her one of her old sweatsuits. Later, a whole bunch of Michelle clones are created and are able to be clothed because of Amy's dry-cleaning nearby, but they soon run out of spare sweatsuits as they advance to nag Fry and further Michelle clones come out of the Planet Express ship completely bare.

** Issue 36 has the story involve Leela being kidnapped and sold as a pet on the planet Westminsteria, where she is eventually stripped after a family purchases her and puts her in a cage. As a result of the stripping, Leela is found naked and hiding in a tree by the time Fry, Bender and Nibbler reunite with her, and she is forced to wear Fry's jacket to stay decent when they return to Earth.

* ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2SonsOfLiberty''. Raiden's attempts to keep modest even though there's nobody (but the player) watching provide some humor in an otherwise disturbing and highly frustrating [[NoGearLevel Warring Without Pants]] level. If he is spotted, he can run back to the room where he was shackled, pretend to be such, and any guards who walk in will dismiss the alert and leave, but not before looking at him and remarking "wish I had that..."

* The start of ''Film/StarTrekNemesis'' features the Enterprise crew going to Riker and Troi's wedding, which leads Worf to get embarrassed and Picard to hit the gym.

It's tempting to suppose that nudity is funny precisely because it's so unusual in the "civilized" world, and weird things are naturally funny. However, this logic goes out the window when you learn that nudity has been a prominent ingredient in humor for [[OlderThanTheyThink at least 3,000 years]]. Even the ancient Egyptians found naked people funny, and they weren't themselves shy about wearing little more than [[LoinCloth loincloths]]. So maybe the humor lies primarily with [[GagBoobs boobs]] and [[GagPenis penises]], which have been shameful to expose since Neolithic times.

** In issue 35, Fry is subjected to a nudity joke when he is burned alive on the sun due to foolishly leaving the protection of the air-conditioning device provided to him, Leela and Bender by Farnsworth. Thanks to the properties of the Miracle Cream he and Leela use as the superheroes Captain Yesterday and Clobberella, he regenerates but is left nude because his costume burned up and Bender has to give him a spare costume, but not without insisting that Fry owns him 200 dollars.

* ''ComicBook/{{Futurama}}'': Issue 11 has the story involve everyone getting infected by Fry's cold and exhibiting strange behavior, with Leela spontaneously deciding to strip and wander around naked.

%%* At least once in the stories of Creator/WilhelmBusch. HilarityEnsues.

!!Examples:

* ''Manga/DragonBall'': Goku would often strip out of his undergarments and would often wind up playing this for laughs, such as when he transformed into Giant Ape form near the end of the first tournament arc and after being transformed back was more than willing to continue the fight even without clothes. DBZ used these gags far less, but it still popped up on occasion. For example, a filler episode very late in the series featured a naked Goku fighting a naked Gotenks after both of them had gotten out of the bath.

* In the ''Literature/BookOfGenesis'', after TheGreatFlood, Noah plants a vineyard and makes wine out of the grapes he harvests. He imbibes a little too much of his homemade wine and [[AlcoholInducedIdiocy gets so drunk that he takes his clothes off]]. Later, his son Ham finds him passed out in the nude, points and laughs and calls his brothers in to laugh with him. Rather than ComeToGawk, his brothers simply look away and cover their dad with a blanket. When Noah wakes up with a hangover and finds out that Ham laughed at him, Noah curses Canaan. ([[MisaimedFandom Which was and is, unfortunately, used to justify slavery and racism towards black people]]. He did not curse all of Ham's descendants, as some slaveholders claimed he had in order to salve their aching consciences.

* ''Film/CarryOnCamping'' has two young men trying to trick their girlfriends into going to a nudist campground. They screwed up, however, and drove to the ''other'' campground with the same name. Then Barbara Windsor's top flies off.

* In ''Film/WhenEvilCalls'', Michael wishes for XRayVision so he can see the girls basketball team naked. Although he gets his wish, he then finds he cannot turn the power off, so he sees not only the nubile basketballers nude, but also his middle-aged male teacher, his headmaster, and his overweight father naked. Hellish for Michael, but [[HilarityEnsues hilarious for the audience]].

* In ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'' fanfiction''[[https://www.deviantart.com/dandyandy1989/art/The-Loud-House-Baby-Louds-663633291 Baby Louds]]'', the entire Loud family gets turned into babies and has some fun running around naked.

* In the ''Fanfic/EmpathTheLuckiestSmurf'' ShowWithinAShow story "The Smurf Of Many Colors", Jokey cracks up laughing at the scene in the play about the story of Joseph when Joseph (played by Empath) is being forced upon by Madame Potiphar (played by Smurfette) and Joseph flees from her, [[GivingThemTheStrip leaving only his garment behind]] while Empath flees off the stage naked.

[[folder:Western Animation]]
* From ''WesternAnimation/ActionLeagueNOW'', The Flesh who, being an action figure, is also an example of BarbieDollAnatomy.
* The ''WesternAnimation/ActionMan2000'' episode "The Hereafter Factor" has a scene where Rikki loses his clothes and is found hiding behind a subway train seat by Fidget.
* ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'':
** The episode "Memories of Boom-Boom Mountain" has an old man who shows up out of nowhere and screams "I'm Naked!" after which he cackles wildly as thunder and lightning strike. Thankfully his beard covers anything unsightly.
** In "Wizard", Finn and the other wizards at Bufo's wizard school are left naked when destroying the asteroid causes their robes to burn up.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'': Gumball occasionally has his moments of nudity, and it comes with pixelation that conceals his nethers.
* ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'' has had many examples. One of the best was during an episode where Hayley and Klaus were having a dare challenge and one of Klaus's dares had Hayley run about the front yard completely naked (with the exception of her headband, peace sign necklace, and wristband) while yelling "Help! Raccoons took my penis!". Roger's head took up most of the center but when you can see Hayley the only thing covering her body is a censor blur. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjRCgSWa4Ro See for yourself.]]
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheAngryBeavers'' episode "Sans-A-Pelt", Norb and Dag lose their fur after a failed magic trick exposing their naked bodies.
* In the ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' episode "Hooked on a Ceiling" there were several jokes about the painting on the ceiling of Sistine Chapel being full of naked people.
* The ''WesternAnimation/{{Archer}}'' episode "Honeypot" features a cut-away that shows Archer throwing Cheryl's clothes off the balcony with Cheryl covering herself to stop him from doing so.
* ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'': Iroh is seen in a hot spring relaxing. Zuko becomes impatient and tells him to get out and, as Iroh begins to come out, Zuko is disgusted by the sight and tells him to get back in for a few more minutes before leaving. [[SceneryCensor Zuko's hand censors him.]]
* In what could be the ultimate example of a BrickJoke, ''WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce'', has Ben acquire a new alien form: Rath, an Appoplexian. Rath doesn't wear any clothes, but he's a big anthropomorphic alien tiger, so no big deal, right? Nobody even makes a comment on it. Fast forward ''several years'' to ''WesternAnimation/Ben10Omniverse'', when Ben actually meets some other Appoplexians for the first time and finds out that their species actually has a sense of shame, and that it's the norm for them to wear clothes. Upon realizing that Rath has indeed been naked all this time, Ben's friends crack up laughing, while Ben is extremely embarrassed.
* ''WesternAnimation/BuzzLightyearOfStarCommand''
** In the episode "The Plasma Monster", Booster ends up nude after lending his space suit to Plasma Boy in order to stabilize him.
** "The Crawling Flesh" involves Zurg infecting nearly everyone at Star Command with a virus that causes people to merge with those closest to them into mutated blobs that shed through their clothes. Buzz Lightyear and Mira Nova are seen in new space suits after being cured off-screen, but this does not apply to the other people infected, so we end up seeing Booster, Commander Nebula, several generic Space Rangers, and some [=LGMs=] in their birthday suits.
* ''WesternAnimation/ChalkZone''
** The main joke with the recurring character Bathtub Granny is that she's always in her bathtub and is therefore always naked.
** "The Gift of Good Intentions" has Rudy's father Joe left naked after losing his new swimming trunks, [[ItMakesSenseInContext which were made of chalk]]. Rudy gives his father a duck floatie to cover himself with.
* In ''WesternAnimation/ChinaIL'', "Life Coaches", Baby Cakes is sitting in class naked for some reason and eating an apple while his classmates avoid looking at him.
-->'''Frank''': ''(entering the classroom, FacePalm)'' Oh, my God! You're nude?!\\
'''Baby Cakes''': ''([[DelayedReaction just realizing he's naked]])'' Oh, I'm naked. ''({{Beat}})'' Oh, well. ''(resumes eating an apple)''
* Harry from the ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' episode "A Wolf in Cheap Clothing" changes between being a wolf and a human throughout the episode. He has to run around the city naked every time he transforms into a human until he can get his hands on some clothing. At one point, a woman walks in on Harry while he's completely naked.
* ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'':
** Tommy Gilligan was a victim of this trope. In "Operation: G.R.A.D.U.A.T.E.S." he makes the wrong interpretation of what a birthday suit is, and in "Operation: D.U.C.K.Y.", somewhat more deliberately, he's trying to avoid getting a bath.
** It happened to the whole team (except Numbuh Four) in "Operation: A.R.C.T.I.C." when they were hit by [[TheNudifier their own ship's missile]]. (Made even worse by the fact that they were at, well, [[ExposedToTheElements the Arctic]].) Numbuh Two tried to make light of the situation by saying that at least now they knew it ''worked''.
** And then there was "Operation: B.U.T.T." It wasn't all too funny for Numbuh One, of course. (The Delightful Children had a robot swipe his shorts while he was at the beach, and then take his picture. Before he even found out they had the picture, everyone laughed at him. Then he finally made it home, and it got worse. After he got their blackmail note and left to deal with them, his teammates found it, and [[ActuallyPrettyFunny even ''they'' couldn't help but laugh]] before they decided to go help him.)
* ''WesternAnimation/CowAndChicken'' gives us the Red Guy, who never wears pants in any of his disguises. All his aliases' names actually reference his lack of pants (such as Officer Pantzoffski, Dr. Laxslax, or Rear Admiral Floyd). In fact, his first line in the pilot (where he's referred to as the Devil) is "Helloooo. I'm the Devil and [[SuddenlyShouting ''I'm also NAKED''!]]"
* ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'': This pops up twice in the episode "Eye for an Eye" as part of the [[EscalatingWar prank war]] between Danny and Vlad. First, Danny makes the walls of Vlad's hotel room invisible as he gets out of the shower, exposing him to the news helicopters flying outside. Vlad then returns the favor by having his ghost minions make the wall between the school cafeteria and the boys' locker room invisible while Danny is showering, exposing him to the jeering student body.
* ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'': Dexter's nakedness including him in his underwear is kind of funny in some episodes.
* In the ''Westernanimation/{{DuckTales| 1987}}'' episode "A Case of Mistaken Secret Identity":
--->'''Launchpad''': I'm going to bare my soul.
--->'''Huey''': Can you do that on television?!
* ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'' features an episode titled "Pop Goes the Ed" where the three protagonists go to a pool party in thongs. [[HilarityEnsues The thongs proceed to snap]] and leave them stuck in an inflatable pool until the sun goes down and they try to escape.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddparents'':
** "Crime Wave" has Timmy wish that instead of having to take a bath, he could be at his favorite comic book store. His fairy godparents Cosmo and Wanda do indeed poof him out of the bathtub and into the comic book store...but forgot to dress him. As a result, he has to make his way home through the town completely naked (and as a recurring gag is mistaken by comic book nerds for comic book superhero Naked Lad).
** "Emotion Commotion" starts with Timmy jumping off of a high dive board into a pool. He lost his swimming trunks and comes out of the pool where everyone there sees Timmy in the buff.
** Both of the aforementioned episodes have Cosmo casually float around in the buff.
** "The End of the Universe-ity" concerns Dark Laser trying to lure Timmy to his side by giving him a suit that gives him dark powers. Cosmo and Wanda try to convince Timmy that dark powers aren't as good as the magic they already give him, with Cosmo's demonstration having him humiliate school bully Francis and SadistTeacher Mr. Crocker by poofing away their clothes, resulting in them [[NakedFreakOut expressing their shock at being nude at school]].
** "Crock Blocked" ends with Mr. Crocker going to school naked under the reasoning that he doesn't have to wear clothing if he's invisible. After his class (with the exception of a mercifully blindfolded-by-his-godparents Timmy) are traumatized by his nudity, Crocker then freaks out after realizing that he's become visible again and runs off trying to cover himself.
-->'''Crocker:''' No wonder mother screamed when I hugged her last night!
** "Love At First Bark" has a couple of gags involving Timmy's Dad being naked in public and not caring.
* Every character on ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' has been naked for a laugh at least once. Usually, it's Peter Griffin, whose gut hangs down low enough to cover his genitals. In one episode, they find out their neighbors are nudists, and most of the family ends up naked in an attempt to show acceptance. In a later episode, they run into the nudists at a KISS concert - wearing nothing but face paint and guitars, of course.
** From the episode "Deep Throats:"
--->'''Stewie:''' ''(to Lois and Peter)'' "Well, you two are busy bein' nude, so, um, we'll just head out and um...let you be nude.
** In the episode where Peter becomes a cigarette company executive, he has the kitchen coated in Teflon for easy cleaning. Everyone falls over, as Peter remarks that he didn't think they'd do the floor too. Then Stewie slides by on his butt, bare naked, and happily announces "I'm ''Nudes on Ice''!"
** Bill Clinton's "This is One Fine Day to be Nude" song.
** Of special note is the fact that Brian, the dog, is pretty much ''always'' nude. The episode "A Fistful of Meg" had him shave his fur off to "even the score" with Peter, who is constantly harassing Brian by appearing naked in front of him.
* Apparently nudity is not so taboo in the future, as the main cast of ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' tend to disrobe somewhat frequently. Especially the Professor, who is over 100 years old.
* A season 3 episode of ''WesternAnimation/FIsForFamily'' features Bill running around naked around the public pool with the titular [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything stinger]].
* ''WesternAnimation/GrizzlyTalesForGruesomeKids'': "Nobby's Nightmare" involves Nobby being embarrassed by his parents being naturists.
* In the ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'' episode "Summer Love", Gertie, Arnold's grandma, surfs onto a nude beach - where everybody's naughty bits are obscured by one thing or another. Her response?
-->'''Gertie:''' Well, when in Rome... ''(slips out of her [[OldTimeyBathingSuit '20s-era bathing suit]])''\\
'''Nudists:''' ''(run away screaming)''
** Later she shows up at the non-nudist beach with some surfers - and without her clothes - with a [[SceneryCensor surfboard]] obscuring her nudity. Grandpa Phil is not amused:
-->'''Gertie:''' Up the establishment!\\
'''Phil:''' Aw, Pookie, nobody wants to see ''that''!\\
'''Gertie:''' ''(laughs)''
* ''Westernanimation/{{House of Mouse}}'':
** In "Donald's Rocket Ruckus", Donald sees a tall woman with very poor balance wobbling towards an amusement park ride. Suspecting it's just his nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie in a {{Totem Pole Trench}} trying to trick him into letting them on the ride, Donald tears the lady's dress off only to find she really is a tall, wobbly lady, meaning he just went up and stripped her naked onscreen. Cue a {{Megaton Punch}} from the embarrassed woman for all his troubles.
** In "Donald's Shell Shots", Baby Shelby tricks Donald into running through changing rooms while girls are still using them, resulting in their undergarments flying in the air while they scream.
* ''WesternAnimation/IAmWeasel'': I.R. Baboon possesses a bright red butt that he never wears pants to cover, and therefore is ridiculed for it. Oh, and the Red Guy from ''WesternAnimation/CowAndChicken'' shows up with the same role.
* Although he himself never cracks a smile about it, ''WesternAnimation/KickButtowski'' ends up naked on the show...so much it's hard to count. This is met with fear, indifference or laughter.
* ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'':
** The episode "Blush" sees Dr. Drakken infect Kim with a dangerous pollen that will slowly erase her from reality if she ever gets embarrassed in public, with the help of the Embarrassment Ninjas. One of their tricks involves showing her crush a home movie of her taking a bath as a toddler.
** In the ski lodge episode, Kim's mother starts telling Kim's class a story from Kim's childhood when the family stayed at the lodge, which involved Kim taking off all of her clothes in the lobby when she was only two years old. Kim quickly tells her to quit it.
** Ron is frequently seen in his GoofyPrintUnderwear, owing to his usual clumsiness.
* ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'':
** Hank gets caught in a tornado holding on for dear life to a telephone pole as the wind tears his clothes off piece by piece until he is fully nude. When he finds himself in the eye of the tornado with only a few seconds to get to safety, he's too embarrassed to let anyone see him naked, but the only two objects near him that he can use to cover himself are a large Texan flag and a small potted cactus. Being the proud Texan he is, he chooses the cactus rather than sully his state's flag.
** While taking a camping trip in a park, Hank, his friends, and Bobby encounter a large number of hippies who came for a gathering. The one that explains the gathering to them is a nudist old man, who horrifies Hank.
* Creator/{{Loriot}}'s animated sketch "Die Herren im Bad" ("The Gentlemen in the Bathtub").
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'', Lincoln likes to read comics in his underwear, a habit his sisters frequently find annoying. Also, their youngest sister Lily, a baby, frequently ditches her diaper while running about.
* ''WesternAnimation/MaoMaoHeroesOfPureHeart'' has the episode "Mao Mao's Nakey", where Mao Mao, after climbing to the top of the Ruby Pure Heart Spire, ends up getting his clothes blown away by the wind and has to make his way through the castle and the town to get them back without anyone seeing him naked.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheMask'' did this in an episode called ''Flight as a Feather'' which detailed the Mask trying to find the feather that goes in his hat; while searching for it he foils an angry stripper named Cookie [=BaBoom=] trying to blow up Mayor Tilton along with herself for ending their affair with dynamite strapped over her private parts. When the Mask pulls them off he sends her into a whirlwind like the Taz-Manian devil, and when Kellaway and Doyle show up to arrest the Mask, the Mask stops Cookie's spinning, exposing her naked body to the cops, [[DistractedByTheSexy causing both men to faint]]. The Mask then says to her "Don't I know you from traffic school?"
* During the reprise of "Thriller" in ''WesternAnimation/MichaelJacksonsHalloween'', Music/MichaelJackson strips off the bandages of a dancing mummy, leaving the mummy naked and prompting him to cover himself in embarrassment.
* The 2013 ''WesternAnimation/{{Mickey Mouse|2013}}'' series has used this in a few shorts.
** "[[Recap/MickeyMouseS1E1NoService No Service]]" has Mickey forced into being naked in public when Donald Duck steals his clothes to comply with the restaurant's "no shirt, no shoes, no service" policy, and the short ends with [[spoiler:Donald getting LaserGuidedKarma when he is left naked after Mickey takes his clothes as well as reclaiming his own.]]
** "[[Recap/MickeyMouseS2E11MickeyMonkey Mickey Monkey]]" has Mickey's clothes get stolen by a monkey, which results in his friends thinking that he is a monkey and that the monkey is the real Mickey. After he gets his clothes back and chases the monkey away, the ending implies that [[spoiler:Goofy, Donald, and Minnie have had their clothes stolen by a trio of alligators.]]
** "[[Recap/MickeyMouseS2E13GoofysFirstLove Goofy's First Love]]" features two brief gags where Mickey, Donald, and Goofy are flung past Minnie and inadvertently end up wearing her clothes, both occasions resulting in Minnie being briefly nude.
** As part of Mickey's training to make him the perfect gentleman Minnie wants him to be in "[[Recap/MickeyMouseS4E15TheFancyGentleman The Fancy Gentleman]]", his instructor Wadsworth Thorndyke III takes away Mickey's trademark red shorts and yellow shoes to prepare him for wearing fancier clothes, resulting in an embarrassed Mickey covering his nude self with his hands.
* In the ''WesternAnimation/MikeLuAndOg'' episode "Hot Couture", Mike decides to host a fashion show of the Albonquetine natives. While Lu wears Goat like a fur boa, Queeks wears clothes made of seaweed, Margery wears a large skirt and a crab in her hair, Wendel is clad in ostrich feathers, and Alfred dons live snakes, Og spends some time pondering on what to wear for the fashion show until he eventually decides to simply remove his loincloth, which is the only article of clothing he ever wears.
* In ''Westernanimation/MiloMurphysLaw'', after Dakota says he left his wallet in another tracksuit, Cavendish questions how many tracksuits Dakota owns. Dakota replies that he has six.
-->'''Cavendish:''' So, then, what do you wear on Sundays?
-->'''Dakota:''' ''*shrugs*'' Not much.
* A RunningGag in ''WesternAnimation/MyGymPartnersAMonkey'' is Jake Spidermonkey's lack of pants and how much he boasts about his butt.
* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'':
** The show actually manages to pull a nudity joke despite the characters parading around naked all the time anyway. Rainbow Dash bursts into Fluttershy's room while she's asleep and rips the covers off of her, only for Fluttershy to cover her naked self and blush.
** Again in season 5. When Discord uses a vacuum cleaner to suck the ooze off of Rarity's dress, it ends up taking her entire dress off. Rarity covers her front with her forelegs while trying to shuffle away.
* The Caroline Foley short ''No Naked!'' is about a boy and girl who decide to have fun by stripping naked, only to get yelled at by the No Naked Horse.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheOblongs'':
** The episode "Narcoleptic Scottie" has a bit where Milo runs around naked with Scottie and some other dogs after they were caught eating out of the garbage by Bob.
** "Bucketheads" features a bit where Milo tries to have his friends participate in a fashion show to impress the Hill kids, which ends in disaster when Helga is unable to restrain herself from eating her bacon dress and the Hill kids are grossed out from seeing her nudity.
* The ''WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons'' short "Skippy Spankerton: Hot Tamale Monster Movie Madness" used this kind of gag when Skippy was told by her parents to take a bath before bedtime and she rushed to continue finishing filming her movie, resulting in her being naked and dripping wet in front of the monsters she is filming before her parents tell her to put on her pajamas.
* In the ''WesternAnimation/PetAlien'' episode "Day of the Naked Aliens", Dinko (an alien) realizes the importance of clothing to humans and panics after realizing he's been naked the whole time, causing him to conclude that the clothes are mind-controlling the humans and go on a war against all clothing that culminates in him destroying all the clothing in [=DeSpray=] Bay. Tommy is not amused, and nor are the rest of [=DeSpray=] Bay (who are forced to don {{Bankruptcy Barrel}}s).
-->'''Dinko:''' You are free, Tommy of Earth. Free to be naked! Everyone is free to be naked and happy, just like me! I have destroyed all of the clothing in [=DeSpray=] Bay! Are you feeling the happiness yet?\\
'''Tommy:''' No! I'm not feeling the happiness. I'm naked! I can't go to school naked! I-I-I can't go anywhere naked! I want my clothes, Dinko! I like my clothes. Clothes are not evil. I like to wear them!\\
'''Dinko:''' You... [[OhCrap you like clothes]]?\\
'''Tommy:''' Yes! I like pants, I like shirts, I like underwear, I don't like to be naked!
* ''WesternAnimation/PrivateSnafu'': The ending of "Fighting Tools" has Snafu being stark naked in a POWCamp after being [[RightOutOfMyClothes blown out of his clothes]] by a Nazi grenade.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheRealGhostbusters'' had a nudity gag used in "Sea Fright", where the ghosts of Captain Jack Higgins' crew searched New York for valuables to steal and end up robbing a cowboy of his clothes. Their victim is only seen from the waist up after this happens, but a woman ends up shrieking at the sight of his state of undress.
->'''Cowboy''': Ma was right. I should've never left Houston.
* ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow'' had [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsX4FOegj40 an example]] where Pops gets a surprise guest (while in the nude).
* ''WesternAnimation/RenAndStimpy'': This sometimes happens to the title characters themselves. Old Man Hunger is portrayed as naked.
* ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife'': Happens twice with the title character, most notably when he walks down a staircase and is, as Heffer and Filburt (who are [[NaughtyBirdwatching filming him with a video camera]]) put it, "completely...''[[ChewingTheScenery naaakeeed]]'', [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment with no clothes on]]".
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}'':
** "[[Recap/RugratsS3E15NakedTommyTommyAndTheSecretClub Naked Tommy]]", Tommy wants to shed his clothes to be like his dog, Spike, so he tries out naturism. He also wants Phil and Lil to do it too, so they do so. Chuckie doesn't want to. This also forces Stu to make a last-minute invention to keep Tommy's clothes on.
-->'''Tommy''': Uh, Lil, can I ask you a question?
** Also, Didi is trying to tell Betty that the nakedness is a natural stage for babies to go through. Betty is not sold on this, saying, "The sixties are over, and we lost. So get on with the program, alright!"
-->'''Stu:''' I don't know what kind of family you're from Deed, but in my family we wore clothes! Except of course for Great Aunt Lois, [[NoodleIncident but that's another story.]]
** In "Barbecue Story," Angelica kicks Tommy's ball over the fence. Tommy delivers a RousingSpeech to the other babies and his diaper straps came undone and his diaper started sliding off. Upon realizing this, he very quickly pulls up his diaper and [[BlushSticker his cheeks turned red.]]
** In "Club Fred", the babies are going around the titular resort to look for treasure [[ItMakesSenseInContext (long story)]], and one of the places they stumble upon is a ''nude beach.'' There's liberal use of SceneryCensor when they see the beachgoers, to say nothing of [[{{Sexophone}} the music...]]
* ''WesternAnimation/SabrinaTheAnimatedSeries''
** There's an episode where Salem is about to be launched into space. The launch gets temporarily delayed by a "code fifteen" - which Sabrina later finds out was Uncle Quigley walking around without his pants.
** Uncle Quigley is the victim of it again when a reporter from the school newspaper snaps a picture of him answering the door having just come out of the shower, and she then prints a report about "Mysterious Lather Man" at the Spellman house.
** Poor Quigley once again twice in the episode "Driver Ed". A nasty feud between Hilda and Zelda over the former's driving teacher leads to the sisters dividing the house in two. The line goes right through the bathroom while Quigley is taking a shower, and he ends up exposed to a neighbour watering her garden. Then in the climax, where Zelda is taking Hilda's test for her, the car has been enchanted to fly and crashes through the house, ''again'' while Quigley is showering. The car somehow picks up the shower rail and curtain as well as Quigley.
** Another episode has them ending up with a DrillSergeantNasty of a nanny, so they use magic to make her nicer. It turns her into a hippie called Rainbow, and the last we see of her is running naked from the police screaming "I want to be free!"
* The Daughters of Aku from the 2017 revival of ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'' were initially believed to be wearing [[SpyCatsuit black skin-tight suits]], but the sixth episode reveals that the girls actually had ash covering their naked bodies from being exposed to hot coals when they were children. While this revelation is obviously not intended to be funny, it is a bit humorous when Ashi washes off her "suit" and realizes too late that she doesn't have anything to wear.
** There's a straighter example, also, in the episode "Jack is Naked," in which a rabbit hopping on by takes Jack's clothes as he's bathing and Jack spends the episode attempting to get them back, stumbling into some densely-populated areas in the process.
* Happens quite frequently on ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':

--->'''Homer:''' Not ''naked'' I haven't.
** In "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS4E9MrPlow Mr. Plow]]", Barney is reduced to handing out baby supply store flyers wearing a diaper, and concludes "At least I can't sink any lower", then the wind blows his diaper off.

** "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS7E10TheSimpsons138thEpisodeSpectacular The Simpsons' 138th Episode Spectacular]]" ends with "I'm Troy [=McClure=], and I'll leave you with what we all came here to see: HARDCORE NUDITY!" Cue a montage over the credits of naked Simpsons characters set to "Shake Your Booty" by KC and the Sunshine Band.
* The episode "Over Exposed" in ''WesternAnimation/{{Sixteen}}'', where Jonesy ends up seeing Jen naked.

Eventually, another girl shows Jen a picture of Jonesy naked in order to make her feel comfortable again.
* Cartman on ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' walks across the mainstage at a fair naked, because he's convinced himself that he has magic ninja powers and can become invisible.
* Pretty much every main character on ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' has been naked quite frequently at one point too. Mostly it's the titular character, who, ironically has concealed genitals even though he was ashamed in earlier episodes that involved him being nude.
** In the episode "Pranks a Lot," Patrick and [=SpongeBob=] strip naked after getting some invisible paint due to being warned that it stains clothes. They end up spraying their clothes by mistake and are seen by a tour bus. After that, they spray themselves to become invisible and scare everyone in Bikini Bottom until Mr. Krabs puts an end to their prank by washing the paint off. The episode ends with a bunch of people at the Krusty Krab laughing and pointing at [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick in their birthday suits.
** It is occasionally brought up that Plankton doesn't wear any clothes. One notable instance is in "The Algae's Always Greener", when Plankton uses a machine to switch lives with Mr. Krabs and is pleased to find himself wearing Mr. Krabs' clothes, but is horrified to find Krabs to walk around naked in public now that he's living his life as the rival trying to steal the Krabby Patty formula. Plankton eventually reveals in ''WesternAnimation/TheSpongebobMovieSpongeOutOfWater'' that he goes naked because they don't make clothes his size.
** The episode "Feral Friends" involves an event occurring every century causing all sea life in Bikini Bottom to devolve into non-sapient fish for two hours, with Sandy having to keep [=SpongeBob=], Patrick, Larry the Lobster, Mr. Krabs, Mrs. Puff, Squidward, and Pearl safe before the two hours are up. When everyone finally returns to normal, they are missing their clothes, which results with everyone except [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick embarrassed about their sudden nudity.

* ''WesternAnimation/StainesDownDrains'': In the episode "Dentures of Death", Mary-Jane attempts to rectify her and Stanley's mother's tendency to be disorganized by hypnotizing her to be more organized. Unfortunately, this works too well and leads to Stanley and Mary-Jane's mom getting rid of whatever she sees as too impractical to hold onto. At the end of the episode, Mary-Jane undoes their mother's hypnosis after she decided to go without clothing under the reasoning that buying, washing and mending them is too much work, resulting in Mom being super-embarrassed that she's standing in front of her children while completely starkers.
* ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'':
** [[Recap/StevenUniverseS1E5Frybo "Frybo"]]: [[KidHero Steven]] and his friend [[AdorablyPrecociousChild Peedee]] accidentally bring the Fryman restaurant's mascot to life, so Steven animates his own clothes to help fight it. The resulting FullFrontalAssault is PlayedForLaughs, and Steven remains naked for the rest of the episode.
** {{Discussed}} in [[Recap/StevenUniverseS2E11KeepingItTogether "Keeping It Together"]]: the Gems have to fold a big pile of shirts, and [[BigFun Amethyst]] comments that humans should just stop wearing clothes — it'd be a lot funnier.
** [[Recap/StevenUniverseS2E20SadiesSong "Sadie's Song"]]: Steven gives us this line (though subsequent dialogue reveals he was wearing underwear):
--->'''Steven:''' Ever since my act two years ago, there's been a rule that you've got to wear clothes.
** [[Recap/StevenUniverseS3E10TheNewLars "The New Lars"]]: Steven is surprised to wake up [[GrandTheftMe in Lars' body]]. Then he gets out of bed and learns that Lars sleeps in the nude, which surprises him so much that he tumbles onto the floor and across the room.
* ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'':
** In the episode "Laundry Day", Raven snatches the other Titans clothes to wash them; leaving them in the buff. Robin gets [[NakedPeopleTrappedOutside locked out of the tower]] and gets swarmed by bees and fangirls with camera phones.
** The HalloweenEpisode "Monster Squad" has it mentioned that the Titans once went trick-or-treating naked, a quick flashback showing the Titans [[HandOrObjectUnderwear using trick-or-treat baskets to obscure their private parts]].
** "Titans Go Casual" has Beast Boy decide to strut around wearing nothing but socks, much to the other Titans' disgust.
* In the ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'' short "A Bacon Strip", from the episode "The Acme Acres Zone", Plucky tricks Hamton into skinny-dipping in Montana Max's pool. When Hamton reluctantly does so, Max steals his clothes, and Plucky runs off, lest Max gets him in trouble too. Hamton is then forced to make his way home while trying to conceal his nudity. Once he gets there, he finds [[BirthdaySuitSurpriseParty a surprise birthday party waiting for him]]. By now, though, Hampton has been embarrassed too much to be humiliated any further, and takes it in stride, saying, "At least I came in my birthday suit."
* This happens more often in ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama''. However, in ''Pahkitew Island'', Max is the only victim of this trope after Jasmine gave him a wedgie.
** In the spin-off ''[[WesternAnimation/TotalDramaPresentsTheRidonculousRace The Ridonculous Race]]'', Don's towel falls off in one episode ("I Love Ridonc and Roll"), leaving him naked for a split second.
