* ''WesternAnimation/TheGreatNorth'': In "[[Recap/TheGreatNorthS4E07JudyPresentsTheStaircake Judy Presents: The Staircake]], on a road trip to Ham's cake competition to New Fork, Wolf, Honeybee, and surprisingly Beef ends up being a burden during the trip:
** Wolf and Honeybee chose to go dressed as Shrek and Fiona so they could go to what they think is a Shrek convention but was actually an orgy. Their costumes made it impossible for them to do anything useful during the trip, like hold Ham's cake steady or drive the bus; and when they have to stop for a pee break, their inability to take off their costumes costs them a half hour of drive time.
** Beef is the only one who cares about Ham's cake competition and he does his best to ensure the trip to New Fork will go smoothly, and he's typically the TheReliableOne. That is, that was his plan, but because he binge-watched a show about fixing cakes the night before the trip in order to help Ham, he ends up too sleep deprived to be useful to Ham and the first thing he does before the trip is show up one hour late for the trip to start and crashed the bus into a tree stump when he fell asleep at the wheel. He spends most of the trip asleep and sleep screaming and he later accidentally frees the muskrats from the bathroom and cause chaos on the bus. Once he finally has enough time to sleep, he becomes helpful again by dealing with the muskrats and talking to Ham about his problem.

This changed post-raptor incident when she TookALevelInBadass and became more than capable of winning challenges by herself.

** Fluttershy's clumsy nature sometimes has a tendency to make things worse, but she also regularly fixes things later or even saves the day. An basic example of this would be "Dragonshy", where her fear of dragons makes her a burden to everyone else throughout most of the episode. In the end, [[spoiler:she's the only one who can tame the dragon]]. Interestingly, in episodes where she's the load or [[TheMillstone millstone]] throughout ("Dragonshy", "Power Ponies", "It Ain't Easy Being Breezies", to name a few) she tends to come through in the end and save the day.
** Spike plays the role more straight, [[MagikarpPower being a baby dragon]], he has yet to gain much physical prowess and so is often useless or requires protection once a physical threat appears. In the role of Twilight's assistant however, he is thoroughly competent, so proves himself rather useful in emotional or intellectual manners at least. Spike's physical weakness was explored in "Power Ponies". When he and the others are teleported into a comic book world, all the ponies gain impressive superhero personas while Spike... becomes the PluckyComicRelief. Despite being perfectly convinced he will be no help, his GenreSavvy wits manage to help the other ponies ([[HowDoIShootWeb who are completely incompetent using their new powers at first]]) and later saving them from the supervillain using elaborate wits alone. Though it should be said that when Spike actually ''does'' step up and save the day, well, if "Badass" was a quantifiable energy source his would light our cities: he saves the Crystal Empire, saving Applejack's life from a massive monster, saving an entire stadium of spectators from a falling block of ice, being the first to trust and befriend a changeling (which went on to make their entire species pull a HeelFaceTurn and save Equestria), and making peace between the Equestrians and dragons.

* Gump often causes considerable problems for the ''WesternAnimation/LittleWizards'', with two episodes in particular standing out.
** In one episode, he runs away into the Wooly Woods and gets himself kidnapped by gnomes, forcing the other Little Wizards to come and rescue him. When they find him, they discover the gnomes actually believe him to be a prophesied leader, "The Wise One", thanks to his VoluntaryShapeshifting powers. The only problem is that he's expected to marry the gnome princess as part of his position... and if he refuses, he'll be outed as an imposter and fed to the giant Gormalu. Neither option is desirable, so the gang decide to sneak away at dawn the next morning. The only problem is that Gump smells the gnomes starting to cook breakfast, and when he is told they can't stay to eat, he ''howls so loud in anger that he wakes the village'', causing the gnomes to give chase.
** In another episode, he breaks Phineas' magic staff by accident, and to avoid getting in trouble, attempts to get a replacement staff from the Petrified Woods... and he does so by ''stealing one'' from an evil witch who lives there. This sets up first for Phineas to accidentally imperil Dexter and one of their animal friends, a bear named Bertha, because he doesn't know that he has the wrong staff, and then for the evil witch to nearly steal all of Phineas' magic.

** Lisa could arguably be considered this to her family due to a combination of her SoapBoxSadie personality and InferioritySuperiorityComplex. As shown below in NiceJobBreakingItHero she's repeatedly ruined Homer's chances at successes by convincing him to start talking about what she cared about instead of what he cared about. She has done the same thing to Marge and Grandpa causing them to give up things they enjoyed because she felt they were wrong. Finally she has out right sabotaged both Maggie and Bart’s chances at success because of jealousy. Disturbingly, "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS27E9Barthood Barthood]]" shows that Bart can't be successful or develop a good relationship with Lisa [[BrokenAesop unless he completely shuts her out of his life]].

* ''WesternAnimation/MegasXLR'': Coop pilots Megas while Kiva provides technical and tactical support. Jamie brings nothing to the table besides snarky criticism (which Kiva also provides along with her own contributions) and the number of times he does something useful can be counted on one hand. He is overall a useless coward who is often the first to suggest fleeing when things get too tough.

Added DiffLines:
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Metalocalypse}}'' has Murderface, who actually turns out to be a subversion. He's [[NobodyLovesTheBassist the bass player]], and by far [[TheFriendNobodyLikes the least popular and likeable member of the crew]], to the point that he's been described as "almost a member." He doesn't write the songs, his bass lines often get removed from the recordings, and he's been known to leave his instrument unplugged during concerts (which nobody notices). However, one episode shows that when Murderface briefly quits the band, the remaining members find that their songs lack the negativity needed to work as metal; essentially, without Murderface around, they can't channel their dislike of him into their music.
