* ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'': The ColdOpen to the episode "[[Recap/ArthurS8E9FleaToBeYouAndMeKissAndTell Kiss and Tell]]" parodies the balcony scene from the play, with D.W. playing Juliet and her ImaginaryFriend Nadine playing the nurse. D.W. even directly borrows the line "O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?" from the play, although [[YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe she uses it in the wrong context]]. In addition, during the episode itself, the actual {{Novelization}} of the play appears, as reading it is a homework assignment for Arthur.

* "Romeo and Juliet" by Music/HoboJohnson reimagines Romeo and Juliet living in modern times and sharing his experiences. He quotes from the Balcony Scene, substitutes drinking and drugs for poison, and even discusses Romeo's SerialRomeo history with Rosalind. Hobo suspects that Rome and Juliet will get divorced, and the whole story is a lens for Hobo's own fears about all his relationships failing like his parents' did.

* ''Series/FirstKill'': Cal appropriately compares her and Juliette (who even has the same name with a different spelling as Juliet) with ''Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet'', to the point that she quotes the play's prologue while they hide out in their school theatre.
