* ''Series/{{Degrassi}}'':
** Holly J Sinclair's default mode is Tsuntsun, she acts catty and tough and in charge… unless she's alone with someone, and her Deredere side shines through to actually level with someone. It has taken seasons of character development to get over this… somewhat, she still defaults with snark and sarcasm and calls herself on it.
** Bianca similarly has a rough Bad Girl Tsun side, casually insulting to anyone and everyone. However after the ending of Season 10 she's let her Dere side show up when she's with Drew, Adam, and Imogen. The rest of the cast still has to deal with her Tsun side exclusively though.
* The HoYay between Richard [=MacDuff=] and Dirk Gently in the ''Series/DirkGently'' TV series provides a typical example:
-->'''Richard:''' I'll make you tea, but only because I'm going to make some for myself.
* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
** Fifth Doctor companion [[Characters/DoctorWhoClassicSeriesCompanions Tegan Jovanka]] is almost '''ridiculously''' tsun in Season 19 to anyone who isn't fellow companion Nyssa. Her relationship with the Doctor, and later companion Turlough, mellows somewhat later on, but she's always got that harsh edge.
** "OI! WATCH IT, SPACEMAN!" [[Characters/DoctorWhoDonnaNuble Donna Noble]] is an over-the-top ''tsun'' type in her [[Recap/DoctorWho2006CSTheRunawayBride first appearance]], and is later her default mood (though toned down to levels that allowed for more well-rounded characterization when she became a regular) but she can be ''dere''. Also a FieryRedhead.
** The Twelfth Doctor begins very tsun in Series 8 to anyone who isn't Clara, and even then he acts tsun enough towards her that the budding romance seen with the Eleventh Doctor is sunk, Clara turns to a fellow teacher to get the affection she no longer received from the Doctor, and she nearly leaves him for good after he makes a harsh decision for her. Over time, particularly in Series 9, his personality mellows, he becomes softer and more sympathetic (though his tsun nature still emerges) and most notably, his relationship with Clara becomes noticeably more affectionate.

* ''Series/NedsDeclassifiedSchoolSurvivalGuide'':
** Evelyn Kwong. Cookie didn't realize what he unleashed when he said that the challenge of beating him was what motivated her.
** [[HairTriggerTemper Moze]] also qualifies, to a lesser extent. Outwardly, she's snarky and aggressive, and she only really shows her ''deredere'' side to Ned, and sometimes Cookie.
* ''Series/MurphyBrown''. Murphy is, of course, usually incredily cranky and prone to violence, but exhibits some tsundere tendencies with all three of her main love. Minterests:
** With Jake Lowenstein, she insists that she "becomes a different person" when she's.with him, and they fight constantly.
** Both she and FYI's sworn enemy Jerry Gold quickly made it apparent that they loathed one another. Eventually (and to their initial horror), they realized that they did indeed have feelings for each other. (Jerry could also be considered one of the rare examples of a male tsundere.)
** When she first meets Peter Hunt, she actually goes so far as to [[spoiler:punch him in the face seconds before show time]]. They bicker, call each other names and play pranks on each other until a later episode in which Corky suggests that Murphy has some interest in him. She's absolutely appalled at the thought, but a few episodes and one more fight later, they're both making out in her office.
* Major Margaret Houlihan of ''Series/{{Mash}}''. Definitely favored the violent side, especially towards [[TheCasanova Hawkeye]], but showed a softer side with [[{{Jerkass}} Frank]], [[RomanticFalseLead Donald]], and occasionally [[AFatherToHisMen Col. Potter]], [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Winchester]], and even Hawkeye again.
* Jessica Devlin of ''Series/{{Shark}}'' liked to combine the cold shoulder with the smirk, especially in her dealings with longtime [[FoeYay rival]] Sebastian Stark.
* Lois of ''Series/MalcolmInTheMiddle''. She may constantly scream at and berate her sons, but it's also apparent that she loves them all deeply and only wants what's best for them. She is more Sweet with her husband, Hal: in general if they're alone together she's a melty pile of deredere, but he can set her off just as well as the boys can: he just doesn't do it as frequently.
* Soo from ''[[Series/TheSootyShow Sooty & Co.]]'' and ''Sooty Heights''.
* Jackie Burkhart of ''Series/That70sShow'' is a classic Harsh Tsundere during the early seasons, when she was dating Kelso. She's naturally bossy and likes to feel in control of the relationship, whereas Kelso likes "doing it", making him easily exploitable, and him being TooDumbToLive doesn't help much. She mellows out once she starts dating Hyde after Kelso flees to California to avoid getting married to her.
* Maggie from ''Series/{{Sliders}}''. Leans tsun in season 3 (to contrast with Wade), dere in season 4 (to ''replace'' Wade), and reaches equilibrium in season 5.
* Both Mia (Sweet) and Marizza (Harsh) from ''RebeldeWay''.
* Both Maddy Magellan and Carla Borrego from ''Series/JonathanCreek''.
* Alex Drake of ''Series/AshesToAshes2008''.
* Robin of ''Series/HowIMetYourMother'', to Ted and later to Barney.
* Perry Cox in ''Series/{{Scrubs}}'' is a very rare example of being both a guy ''and'' and very old compared to other examples of this trope. His tsun side is mostly directed towards JD, whom he constantly berates for his childish or effeminate behavior, but is secretly proud of his commitment to medicine and caring for his patients as actual people.

* Sam Puckett of ''Series/ICarly''. ''Very'' Harsh, especially towards Freddie. Only Carly can usually bring out her "dere" side. Although later, Freddie is able to bring out her dere side also. [[GoMadFromTheRevelation She didn't accept this very readily.]]
* ''Series/GossipGirl'': Blair Waldorf to Chuck Bass.
** In season 4, she's a textbook case with Dan.
* Sherlock Holmes from ''Series/{{Sherlock}}'' is almost always a sarcastic, rude, InsufferableGenius… except with [[OnlyFriend John]] and [[ParentalSubstitute Mrs. Hudson]]--and that, too, only when he's feeling particularly charitable, or when they've done something incredibly loyal. And piss him off enough by either hurting [[TeamMom Mrs. Hudson]] or threatening [[LivingEmotionalCrutch John's]] life, you're screwed.
%%* Maggie O'Connell from ''Series/NorthernExposure'' is a Harsh.
* Quinn on ''Series/{{Glee}}'' usually gives the cold shoulder to Puck; however, there have been several times when she has opened up to him. She also has a short temper with her boyfriend Finn but given that he's TheDitz, he kind of needs someone to boss him around. Most obviously would be the relationship Quinn has with Rachel.
** Sue Sylvester is in ''tsun'' mode nearly all the time, except during her brief relationship with Rod in "Mash-Up" and [[spoiler: with her disabled sister]] in "Wheels."
** Lauren, who's also often in ''tsun'' mode, but WhenSheSmiles there are hints that she really likes Puck. Her song ''I Know What Boys Like'' spells it out.

And frequently before, with her various earlier love interests, although not to the degree seen in Season 7.
** Odo himself is a bit of a tsundere. His first appearance had him berate Commander Sisko for carrying a phaser on the promenade immediately after he used said phaser to subdue a violent criminal. His law enforcement ranges from zealous to fascist. He's openly contemptuous of Starfleet. Pair him with Kira or Lwaxana Troi, and he becomes a pussycat.
