*** [[http://www.homestarrunner.com/4gregs.html 4 Gregs]] is a comic drawn by the titular squad. Who in turn were in a comic drawn by the Gregs. Who again were drawn by the girls. And so on. This gets so meta that even Strong Bad loses track.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7CgGCOqWTM Episode 77]] of ''WebAnimation/BonusStage'' has Joel and Phil optioned by ''G4'' to create their own cartoon for the network. The show is unfortunately ruined by Phil's endless suggestions. Much of the episode is a TakeThat to G4.
