Abhorrent Admirer / Western Animation

• In 6teen, the incredibly geeky Darth is this to the snarky punk/goth Nikki. However, this is eventually dropped when the characters help Darth hook up with a different girl later in the series.
• 101 Dalmatians: The Series
  • Dumpling, a very fat and spoiled rotten pig, has a very outspoken crush on Lucky which he does not return.
  • Cruella De Ville towards any man that she may develop a fancy for, particularly towards the sailor, Starbuck, as seen in the episodes "Shipwrecked" and "Valentine's Daze" as he is absolutely frightened of her. In the final episode "Dalmatian Vacation Part 3" however, he does admit to having feelings towards her.
• Adventure Time: The Ice King kidnaps princesses and forces them into marrying him against their will. And on a more platonic level, he wants to be friends with Finn and Jake. His loneliness and tragic backstory make him a Jerkass Woobie, but he forces princesses into marriage, which to him means keeping them locked up, and is very stalkerish towards Finn and Jake seals his status as an adversary.
• Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog gives us Katella the Huntress from the episode "Zoobotnik", who immediately becomes smitten with Robotnik and wants to marry him, much to his horror. The problem isn't her looks —she's actually a rather comely Amazonian Beauty— it's that her idea of showing affection entails beating the crap out of him and slamming him around like they're in a pro-wrestling match:
  Katella: "I NEED YOU! I LOVE YOU!"
  Robotnik: "I'm sure glad you don't hate me!"
• Aladdin: The Series: During the episode "Stinker Belle", Prince Uncouthma's bride-to-be Brawnhilda immediately becomes smitten with Aladdin instead because he is far scrawnier than the men of their country. Aladdin quickly informs her he's in a relationship with Princess Jasmine, but this does not bother her as she believes Aladdin needs a protector like her. It's only at the end, seeing Uncouthma injured, does Brawnhilda lose interest in Aladdin.
• Alvin and the Chipmunks: Deconstructed in an episode. Alvin has organized a contest for his admirers in which the winner would get a romantic dinner with him, is utterly dismayed when the winner turns out to be an old woman, during the episode Alvin goes through great pains trying to get rid of her, but when he thinks that he might have accidentally caused her death he feels a lot of remorse and realizes that he has been a jerk. At the end of the episode, the woman admits that she may not have been what he was expecting and she understands it, prompting Alvin to make good on her prize.
• Animaniacs: The Warner Siblings are unwanted admirers to...pretty much any attractive person of the opposite gender. Especially Hello Nurse.
  • Due to a combination of Values Dissonance and Double Standard, only Dot can be an unwanted admirer to guys in the reboot.
• Avatar: The Last Airbender: Meng, who falls in Love at First Sight with Aang in the episode "The Fortune Teller". Also subverted in that Aang doesn't react negatively to her at all, but simply fails to notice her affection until she tells him. When she does, he's not disturbed either; in fact, he's sympathetic and says he likes her, just not the way she likes him.
  • In The Legend of Korra: Prince Wu to both Asami and Korra.
• Bad Dog: The episode "Beauty and the Beast Dog" has Trevor dealing with an obsessive girl from school that won't leave him alone.
• In the Batman: The Animated Series episode "Beware the Creeper", Creeper has an unrequited crush on Harley Quinn, who finds him hideous. What is it with crazy clowns and Harley?
• Magpie to Batman in Beware the Batman. She's not hideous in any way, but she's a mentally unstable Yandere who enjoys committing theft, so Batman's not interested. Unfortunately, she's Wrong Genre Savvy and assumes he's into her.
• A number of these featured in The Beatles.
• Bobby's World: Played With in regards to how Bobby feels about Jackie. He likes her platonically, but when she kisses him or declares him her boyfriend, he's uncomfortable with her.
• Bob's Burgers: Gayle, Linda's mentally unstable younger sister, is frequently shown to have something of a crush on Bob. One episode has him kiss her because the painkillers he was under from the dentist made him think she was Linda, causing her to think they're having an affair behind her back, not helped that Linda encourages it so that Gayle will have to courage to meet someone else. Another episode has him pick her up from her apartment, finding her on the floor and in a towel, hinting she's hoping they'll have sex. Even ignoring that he's married to her sister, it's shown repeatedly Bob outright hates Gayle, something Linda insists is not true. He's forced to tolerate her presence only because Linda is overprotective, but he genuinely finds her overbearing, annoying, and unreasonable to be around and he'd rather Linda just cut her out of their lives.
• The Boondocks It's Maybelliiiiiiiiine, nigga! from the episode "Wingman", when Robert Freeman is confronted by a long lost ex.
• Bump in the Night:
  • The episode "Adventures in Microbia" had Neat Freak Squishington receive unwanted affections from a Germ Girl, though the trope is eventually subverted when he reciprocates her feelings toward him.
  • "Love Stinks" had Molly Coddle become stinky after getting covered in garbage, which resulted in her getting unwanted affections from a stink bug named Odiferous J. Stench.
• Camp Lazlo
  • The episode "Love Sick" had Clam suffer a concussion that caused him to become attracted to Gretchen, much to her dismay. By the end of the episode, the situation is reversed by having Gretchen become the abhorrent admirer and Clam as the unwilling object of affection.
  • In "Hard Days Samson", Samson ends up having trouble with the Squirrel Scouts when they won't leave him alone because he happens to look like a hunky hamster celebrity.
• Carl²: Lorna is this to Carl. She is also a Stalker with a Crush.
• Captain N: The Game Master:
  • A dress-wearing pink octopus with blonde hair and blue eyes had a crush on Simon Belmont during the episode entitled "I Wish I Was a Wombatman". This short yet shapely and well-endowed director's assistant said to him with a beautiful voice, "Ooooh! You're a dream boat!" She gave him a big hug wrapping her tentacles around him. While embracing him, the assistant gave him a giant wink and extended her enormous red lips inches away from his. Simon seemed repelled because she was of a different species. The cartoon ended with the octopus leaning forward exposing the top of her ample cleavage and asking "Uh, anyone call for make up," when she saw her beloved Belmont checking himself out in a mirror. The blonde babe had no cosmetics on hand because this was just an excuse to get him alone in a dressing room for some hugging and kissing. Simon ran away in terror. She slithered right after him with a big smile and open tentacles like a love-struck groupie.
  • Simon Belmont had another such admirer in the episode "Queen of the Apes". After defeating the leader of a pack of gorillas a female that had a blonde beehive complete with curlers and a pink skirt fell for Simon. The muscle-bound large breasted hairy ape closed her eyes and tried to kiss him with her big pink lips but he got away. The pack of gorillas carried Simon away to end the episode so there's a chance she got around to kissing him off-camera.
  • This was reversed a few times with Simon getting struck with a love arrow and falling for the hideous Mother Brain once, almost marrying her in the episode Mr. & Mrs. Mother Brain. There was also a mutual attraction between Simon and Queen Dwarfine in The Feud of Faxanadu. While she had a rather plump yet nice figure she may not have been very attractive to the audience given her blue skin, green frizzy hair, and big nose. The Vampire Hunter was attracted to more classic beauties such as Lana and Princess Zelda however, throughout the series.
• Chowder:
  • Panini's whole stick was basically being this to the titular character, to the point "I'M NOT YOUR BOYFRIEND!" was his default response to seeing her. Though, unlike other examples, Panini isn't presented as particularly unpleasant (aside from her refusal to take no for an answer of course), and considering how young she and Chowder seem, he may just still be in the "girls are icky" phase and she may just not no better yet. Tellingly, according to the Series Finale, Chowder does eventually end up marrying Panini and starting a family with her, and seems fine with it.
  • Panini's mentor, Mrs. Endive, was also this to Shnitzel, in one episode where he leaves the main cast's restaurant to work for her, after being underappreciated. And unlike her apprentice, Endive is presented as a very unpleasant woman. This is, unsurprisingly, a big factor in Schnitzel taking Mung Daal and the others' offer to return.
• Code Lyoko as a toned down example with Sissi, who is in love with protagonist Ulrich. Unlike the classic example, Sissi isn't unattractive; she actually is quite pretty, and, according to Ulrich, has a lot of admirers (Though the show rarely shows it that much). However, she also happens to be an Alpha Bitch, a Brainless Beauty, and acts like a very annoying Stalker with a Crush to Ulrich. This dialogue from the prequel sums it up:
  Odd: "Who is this really hot chick?"
  Ulrich: "Sissi, the Principal's daughter. Everyone is crazy for her. But she's crazy for me."
  Odd: "That's great!"
  Ulrich: "No it isn't! She has nothing in the brain, and she is as sticking as glue!"
  • Later episodes develop her into a more likable character and have Ulrich occasionally warming up to her, but it's generally clear she still has no chance with him.
• The Cramp Twins: Wayne is the subject of Wendy Winkle's, much to his dismay. Wendy isn't repulsive per se (aside from her personality, but Wayne himself is also a Jerkass), but Wayne hates anything that is overly girly.
• The Cuphead Show!: Downplayed with Brineybeard being in love with Cala Maria. He mistakenly thought she loved him back went through much to reunite with her and pursue a relationship. However, she reveals she didn't return his feelings and was actually trying to eat him. However, she's not annoyed or bothered by him and still finds his devotion to her charming even if she doesn't feel the same way.
• Danny Phantom
  • Dash Baxter has the hots for Danny's older sister, Jazz. She didn't take kindly to him bullying her little brother. In Frightmare, she has a nightmare of being married to him.
  • Valerie gets this in one episode with Nathan (another rare male example) who is portrayed as a stereotypically "ugly nerd" who wants to ask Valerie to the prom (despite it being three years away) while Valerie was a former popular girl.
  • Vlad is a greater example to Maddie Fenton. Since confessing his feelings for her, and telling her to leave Jack for him, he becomes one of the few things to sour her mood.
• Dexter's Laboratory:
  • Mandark has an obsessive desire for Dee Dee to love him since the moment he saw her. However, she's not interested in nerds, which is not helped by his love for her being far too uncomfortable. He once used one of Dexter's inventions to make her kiss him, which made her hit him in response.
  • The giant-eyed girl from "Aye Eye Eyes" developed a crush on Dexter. He found her very creepy and did not like her constant looking at his face. It wasn't helped when she found out about his lab and used that as blackmail to make him her boyfriend. Thankfully, he found a boy with equally creepy eyes for her to lose interest in him.
• Dastardly & Muttley in Their Flying Machines: "Barnstormers" had the Vulture Squadron crash-land on the farm of a rather stout German maiden who takes a shining to Zilly. By the end of the cartoon, she falls for Dastardly.
• The John Dilworth short The Dirdy Birdy had a bird named Purdy become attracted to a cat named Fergurina and try to express his attraction by baring his behind in front of her. The cat isn't amused and inflicts violence on the bird every time.
• Drawn Together: Used repeatedly with Toot Braunstein. Slight irony there too: she's actually drawn somewhat nice-looking most of the time, if you like them chubby; it's her disgusting slovenly habits that are the actual deal-breaker to those of us not in the show. She receives the brunt of the Ren & Stimpy super detail gags as a result of this trope, however. (And, some characters do reciprocate, much to the horror of the rest of the cast, like Ling-Ling's dad.)
• In the Duck Dodgers episode "Talent Show a Go-Go", after "borrowing" Tom Jones's voice, Dodgers ends up attracting the attention of an ugly alien queen.
• Ed, Edd n Eddy:
  • The trailer trash Kanker Sisters. Normally, each Kanker has her preferred Ed - May has Ed, Marie has Edd, and Lee has Eddy - but not only will all three of them dogpile and fight over one Ed if the other two aren't around, they also tend to fawn over other guys they consider attractive enough, e.g. Rolf in his full Urban Rangers uniform in "Ed Overboard" (indeed, they admit a man in uniform drives them wild as well). Regardless, all the kids in the cul-de-sac fear the Kankers, to the point that all of them will run away if they happen to show up as the Kankers are violently unpredictable, as shown in "Run for Your Ed" where they embark on an absolute rampage of total destruction because their family heirloom has apparently been stolen. So, what do they do when they inevitably catch up with the target of their affections? [[Subject them to unconsente smoochings that leave the boy's face covered in red lipstick marks]], and pretty much sexually harass him - one of the most hysterical examples has got to be "Key to My Ed" at the end of which they restrain the Eds by their feet to force them into doing footsies with the girls. They also want to pawn off all their housework onto their long-suffering "boyfriends". Even when they were introduced in "Nagged to Ed", the second episode of the series, it was clear they had some Stalker with a Crush tendencies as they not only knew Edd's preferred moniker before he could introduce himself but even had drawings of themselves being with each of the Eds on their wall^note In particular, Lee drew herself marrying Eddy, which he didn't find amusing, done well in advance of the girls even meeting the Eds for the first time.
  • The Eds tried to make themselves come off this way in a Reverse Psychology gambit in "A Twist of Ed", fed up with the sisters and looking for a way to scare them off for good. It almost works, until Eddy, who's too much of a coward, accidentally gives them away, making the sisters realize the Eds are bluffing and would never actually do anything to the Kankers. That's when they go to reverse psychology and put things back the way they were.
  • All that being said, May's crush on Ed may be the most genuine. The most notable example of her true feelings is probably "Hanky Panky Hullabaloo", in which she was the only one of the sisters who bothered to acknowledge Valentine's Day. She even went to the trouble to make him a card, which she gave to him while just asking him to be her Valentine, completely without the smothering things she normally does all the other times she meets him. Regardless, Ed perceives her as an abhorrent admirer partially because he's terrified of the very idea of even having a girlfriend, and as a result he brutally rejects her - nothing that he says implies he rejected her because she's a Kanker sister, but merely that she's a girl with any romantic interest in him at all. Her sisters, meanwhile, seem to simply enjoy the idea of having boyfriends to bully.
• Fairy Tale Police Department: Episode 25 included a mermaid that fell in love with Johnny Legend Fantasy when she thought that he was the prince. She kisses him multiple times in the episode.
• The Fairly OddParents!:
  • Tootie is this to Timmy much of the time. She harbors an obsessive and unrequited crush on him.
  • An episode had Timmy getting a note passed to him, saying that he's cute. When he looks at Francis (who had passed him a note threatening to kill him moments earlier), he points behind him to where a beautiful girl is sitting. When he begins to flirt, the girl points behind her to where a rather large girl is sitting. Timmy freaks out, end joke.
  • In another episode, Timmy wishes for a teenage body so he can ride a new rollercoaster at Adrena-Land. Unfortunately, he gets seated next to Vicky, who doesn't recognize him and mistakes him for a famous Norwegian male supermodel and chases him through the park after falling in love with him.
• Family Guy: There are one-off jokes about a few women like this (including a few moderately attractive celebrities), but the most recurring one is the Butt-Monkey, Meg Griffin. Boys would rather set themselves on fire and kill their siblings than go to a dance with her.
  • Meg herself is on the receiving end of this when comes to Neil Goldman, and she does all but very little to hide her annoyance about it.
• The Flintstones: In the episode "Deep in the Heart of Texarock", Fred and Barney dress up as a cowasaurus (more cow than dinosaur) with Fred playing the front end and Barney playing the rear. They catch the eye of a cute purple cowasaurus named Carmen with long eyelashes, a bow on her head, and luscious pink lips like a human female's lips. She starts kissing Fred's masked face on his cheek so the pair runs away. While amongst a herd of cowasauruses, Fred makes the sound 'moo' twice to blend in. Carmen responds by mooing while giving Fred a long smooch on the nose of the outfit and segues to more pecks on his cheek. Even after the disguise is removed, it doesn't matter since Carmen instantly recognizes Fred and is still in love with him. Once she saves his life by beating up a bunch of cowasaurus thieves, Carmen closes her eyes, puckers her lips, and expects Fred to kiss her which of course he does not. So she settles for kissing him on the cheek repeatedly every chance she gets, with some of the smooches lingering. Later, Fred is given Carmen as a gift sent to his home and she starts kissing him again. When Fred rejects her and tries to send her back, Carmen gets angry and chases Fred with her horns to beat him up!
• Fred the Caveman: Fred is this to Emma. He always wants to get "kissy kissy" from her, but she doesn't like him in the slightest bit.
• Futurama:
  • This describes the relationship between Zapp Brannigan and Turanga Leela. Zapp is the admirer in this case. On their first encounter, Leela sleeps with him out of pity, complicating things for herself for the rest of the series. Zapp is quite handsome (if a bit overweight); Leela hates him purely for his personality.
  • Fry gets one in "Why Must I Be a Crustacean in Love". Edna is considered highly desirable by Decapodian standards, but Decapodians are anthropomorphized lobsters. When Fry admits it was he who coached Zoidberg in the ways of flirting, Edna falls for him because she has never experienced romance before (it being unknown to her species). When Fry is stuck with the prospect of either being killed by an angry Zoidberg or winning the duel and having to make love to her, he considers both options equally horrific.
• Gravity Falls has Li'l Gideon. His advances toward Mabel become increasingly deranged, until finally hitting its low point when he tries to murder Dipper for breaking the news that she's not interested in him.
• The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy: Irwin for Mandy. Mandy can't stand his crush on her. All of the occasions of her reciprocating his feelings were either due to magical influence or being unconscious.
• The Heckle and Jeckle short "Trapeze, Pleeze" had Dimwit Dog constantly trying to avoid the advances of a hippo woman named Zelda.
• Hey Arnold!:
  • Curly is definitely repulsive but attracted to Rhonda. "I haven't changed my underwear in seventeen days", anyone?
  • Brainy too, to Helga, often showing up when she's monologuing. Most of the time, she punches his lights out, but on her rare good days, she'll just let it slide.
  • Seems like this trope is kind of inverted with Arnie and Lila. You'd expect Arnie to be the abhorrent admirer (he's certainly creepy enough), but instead he's admired by a pretty girl, and doesn't reciprocate.
• On Histeria!, Cleopatra is often portrayed this way (particularly when played by the World's Oldest Woman), to the point where Julius Caesar and Marc Anthony both happily go to their appointed deaths to get away from her. When Cleopatra herself dies and shows up in the afterlife with the pair, all Caesar can utter is "This is heaven?" Evidently Truth in Television, from a purely physical standpoint. Statues and the imprints on coins, which were designed to flatter, are at best nothing special by either our own standards nor the standards of her time. In real life, she managed to win over the boys by being intelligent, funny, and engaging in conversation.
• House of Mouse:
  • Clara Cluck to Donald Duck in the short "Double Date Don", as she tries to woo him while he tries to impress Daisy on Valentine's Day.
  • In "Donald's Pool", Donald works as a lifeguard at a pool and gets a bossy elderly female turtle as a customer. By the end, however, he's done what she wanted and she goes from pestering him constantly to showing affection in a manner that's just as annoying.
  • Even Clarabelle Cow gets the hots for Donald Duck in one of the Mickey Mouse Works intros.
  • Both of Donald's House of Mouse admirers Clara Cluck and Clarabelle Cow menace him in the episode 'Everybody Loves Mickey', as they shower him with affection after a short that demonstrated how romantic he could be. Daisy doesn't seem to be bothered and in fact pulls him away for the same thing, to his enjoyment.
  • While Minnie Mouse was charmed by Mortimer in his debut cartoon Mickey's Rival, in this show and the Works show Mortimer's affection is pretty one-sided with Minnie occassionally being disgusted by him. However, in some episodes it is shown that Clarabelle has the hots for him instead - which he himself finds very annoying.
• Ivanhoe: The King's Knight: Rowena has not one but two: her arranged fiancé Prince John and her guardian Reginald Front-de-Boeuf.
• Minx is this to Rio in the Stingers-era episodes of Jem.
• Jimmy Two-Shoes: In the episode, "I Married a Weavil", the Weavil Princess becomes this to Beezy, who is being forced into a Shotgun Wedding with her by his father Lucius and the Weavil Chief.
• Johnny Test:
  • Eugene a.k.a. Bling-Bling boy loves Susan Test but she wants nothing to do with him due to his repulsive appearance and overbearing personality. In one episode, Eugene was given a potion that made him stop loving Susan. He started loving her sister instead.
  • In "Johnny of the Deep" Johnny had to assume the form of a shark to retrieve a mind-control device that had fallen into the ocean. Eugene had created a ring that brainwashed Susan into being his doting girlfriend, and in trying to stop him they knocked the ring off his yacht. In the process of retrieving it, Johnny gets hit on and chased by a repulsive female shark. It works out in the end, though, since even though Eugene does recover the ring, Johnny and Dukey somehow make it brainwash the female shark into falling for the still very human Eugene.
  • Another episode has a female Bigfoot fall in love and smother Dukey (who was transformed into a monster by a Transformation Ray gun for a time) who obviously didn't enjoy the affection.
  • Dukey was a victim of this yet again in the short "Johnny McCool". After a ray gun is used on Dukey to make him look like Hollywood actor Slam McCool he had to film a scene with a lovelorn octopus. The giant pink octopus who has green eyes and a mole above her upper left lip grabbed Dukey inside a swimming pool. With her huge lips that housed a slightly darker shade of pink lipstick she happily planted a giant kiss on the side of Dukey's face. Another scene was planned where he had to fight the octopus for a bit and receive a big kiss from her but Dukey managed to avoid it.
• Jungle Jitters: The tribe's elderly queen was instantly smitten with the salesman. When given the choice to either be eaten or marry her, seeing her try to kiss him disgusted him enough that he hops back into the boiling pot.
• Kaeloo: Pretty to Mr. Cat. Unlike most examples of this trope, she's not physically ugly, but she's an obnoxious Alpha Bitch and Stalker with a Crush who only likes him for his looks and doesn't care about him at all.
• Jackie "Wacky Jackie" Wackerman on Kick Buttowski: Suburban Daredevil definitely fits this trope, not only is she a Stalker with a Crush, but she ain't exactly a looker either.
• Kim Possible:
  • Mr. Barkin spends one episode being (clumsily) hit upon by an unattractive, annoying woman and reacts with outraged disgust (admittedly, Mr. Barkin reacts with outraged disgust to almost everything, but still...). And the woman in question later turns out to be the villain of the week, who would continue to appear under the villain name "DNAmy". She later became an outright Stalker with a Crush toward Monkey Fist, who goes into hiding to avoid her and frantically flees when she manipulates Team Possible into tracking him down.
  • Motor Ed, Drakken's obnoxious cousin, immediately was drawn to Shego the moment he met her. When he asked if she believed in love at first sight and asked if he should keep walking, she responded by blasting him several feet away. This did not make him lose interest one bit.
• Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness:
  • It's not entirely clear why the elderly goat Mrs. Yoong has a thing for Monkey as the nature of her attraction is not clear. Monkey, nevertheless, dreads her because she "smells like paste", whatever that means. Comes up as a Brick Joke of sorts when during the charity auction in "Crane on a Wire" she outbids everyone to spend the day with him and he's puffing out his chest that he's fetched the highest sum so far... until he realizes exactly who bid on him. She then drags him away to a tortuous day with her as he moans "PAAAASTE". One wonders how Monkey knew of her before since he even admitted he was reluctant to partake in the charity auction specifically because of her.
  • Another subversion occurs in "Secret Admirer". Monkey falls in love with the visiting Ming, and Po takes advantage to escalate the boys' prank war by writing Monkey a fake love letter that's supposed to be from her. It works so well Monkey doesn't realize it's not real, and as Po tries to do damage control (as he never meant to actually hurt Monkey's feelings, after all) he finds himself the object of Ming's true affections. He finds her repulsive only because of her abrasive demeanor, being a brat the same way her father is a prick, and tries to get out of the Love Triangle he's unwittingly created.
• Looney Tunes:
  • Pepé Le Pew. Actually, it's not his looks that scare anyone away, but his smell, which scares everyone away - even those he's not trying to smother with affection. Sometimes, it's just his smell that's the big turn-off, which can end a couple different ways - either his object of affection gets herself stinky so she can be used to his smell, or she somehow loses the ability to smell his repulsive odor. And when that happens, we get...
  • Penelope Pussycat to Pepe, who immediately goes crazy for Pepe and starts pursuing him once she can get over his smell (the exact means by which she does so varies). His reaction is the same as hers: Along with whatever scent-related issues may be involved, the problem with both of them seems to be that they both just come on too strong.
  • In the animated short I Got Plenty of Mutton, a male wolf dresses up as an extremely attractive female sheep. With big red lips, a short red and yellow dress that reveals the outfit's shoulders and long legs, a sexy walk, and a tail that motions to come hither the wolf manages to seduce a male ram. The wolf is actually trying to kill the ram but all of his efforts fail. With each failure, the ram flirts with the wolf with a French accent and plants an endless barrage of kisses on his lips. Some of the lip locks even linger a little longer than they should! After an all-night chase, the ram grabs the wolf for another make-out session. At this point, the wolf breaks away and takes off his costume. Unfortunately for him, the ram is so turned on that he doesn't care and wants to make love to the wolf! The wolf runs away and the chase continues.
  • Ma Bear turns into one of these at the end of Bugs Bunny And The Bears. When Bugs is lured into the bears' home ala Goldliocks style to be their dinner, he gets cornered by Mama Bear, but charms her with compliments before kissing her straight on the lips. This backfires spectacularly, as the hapless Mama Bear becomes smitten with him, and sends her husband and son away only so she can have Bugs all to herself, much to Bugs' horror. "Tell me more about my eyes," Ma Bear says as she puts her hands all over him attempting to kiss him once again while he tries to fight him off. She also tries to turn him on by wearing a nightgown with a brown wig, a form-fitting green dress with a blonde wig, and even lets him peek at her in the shower. Bugs, who is absolutely disturbed by her behavior, plows out of their home and races back to his burrow. To his chargin, Mama Bear somehow got there first. Mama Bear giggles like a schoolgirl, saying "Tell me more about my eyes" before she proceeds to kiss him repeatedly off-screen. A few seconds later, Bugs emerges from the burrow with a dazed expression, and red lipstick mark all over his face, neck, and ears. He comes to his senses a second later, and runs off into the horizon, screaming in a crazed manner. A content Mama Bearn emerges from the burrow, now wearing a thick layer of red lipstick, looking very pleased over her little fling with Bugs.
  • It happens to Bugs Bunny again in the cartoon Rabbit Romeo. He is pursued by a large Slobbovian rabbit named Millicent who wants to "kees" him and "make marriage." Eventually she loses interest in Bugs and falls in love with Elmer Fudd, who was tricked into wearing a rabbit suit. So Millicent starts chasing after Elmer instead.
  • The short, "Eatin' on the Cuff or The Moth Who Came to Dinner" has a male moth being chased by a female black widow spider who takes a liking to him. Even after prettying herself up, her giant nose still draws him off.
  • The Looney Tunes Show has Lola Bunny (first appearing in Space Jam) chasing Bugs. He thinks she's pretty, but she has the minor handicap of being an insane ditz. Later on, they become an official couple.
• The Mask:
  • The Mask can be this towards any woman he comes across due to him being too strong, wacky, and unpredictable but he does respect their boundaries as he does not force himself on them and most of the girls who were put off by him can see that he is a Nice Guy along with having a sweet nature and charisma charm.
  • Eve is a lot more stronger than The Mask, lustful, unpredictable, and tries to kiss Stanley lots of times but she does not try to force herself on him, has morals along with having a good heart, and genuinely cares and loves Stanley very much which after spending time with her he can see that she is a Nice Girl despite her quirks and lustfulness towards him.
• This happens to J in Men in Black: The Series when he is undercover as an alien bodyguard in an intergalactic summit. An abhorrent alien female falls in love with him, to his dismay. He feels safe when he finally has to take away the costume thinking that is over, just to find out that the alien species is blind, and they choose their mates by smell.
• Mickey Mouse - While Donald Duck is more likely to attract these, Mickey Mouse has been gaining a couple ever since the Mickey Mouse (2013) shorts began. In "'O Sole Minnie", Mickey tries to woo Minnie, only to find himself mistakenly flirting with a hippo. In another short, "New York Weenie", Mickey's already with Minnie and is trying to impress her... but ends up impressing what looks and sounds like Goofy in drag.
• Miraculous Ladybug: While most of Adrien's fangirls fall into the Hopeless Suitor camp due to his single-minded fixation on Ladybug (he himself — as Char Noir — falls into this trope because of his Entitled to Have You attitude toward Ladybug), two of them are particularly awful:
  • Chloé Bourgeois is a Clingy Jealous Girl Spoiled Brat who remorselessly bullies all of Adrien's other friends for ridiculously petty reasons, and Adrien mostly only tolerates her because she was his Only Friend before the series. Even then, he has the occasional The Dog Bites Back moment.
  • Lila Rossi, in addition to sharing Chloé's clinginess, is a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing who uses relentless lies to cover up her true nature, and is more interested in the idea of Adrien than the real deal. Adrien is at least aware that she's a compulsive liar, which puts him off even while he's willing to give her a chance to redeem herself. After Lila crosses the Moral Event Horizon in "Oni-Chan", Adrien tells her point-blank that he wants nothing to do with her. While he eventually has to go back on this promise to help Marinette, he's clearly not happy about it.
• Florence is this to Reverend Putty in Moral Orel. One of the sympathetic examples.
• Claire sees Chuck as this in Motorcity. Julie might see Texas and/or Tooley as this.
• My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic:
  • Fluttershy's brother, Zephyr Breeze, has a rather obnoxious interest in Rainbow Dash. It's to the point where simply being in his presence is Nausea Fuel for her.
  • Trenderhoof is oblivious to Rarity's crush on him because he's fallen for Applejack. Being a hard-working Earth pony, she tries to be nice to him, but she's clearly not interested in him. His constantly getting close to her and acting like he likes farm work doesn't earn him points.
• Pet Alien:
  • Gabby frequently obsesses over and stalks Tommy, who doesn't return her feelings and is terrified of her.
  • Granville repeatedly tries to win over Melba, who is repulsed by him.
• Popeye:
  • Olive Oyl becomes this to Shorty in the Popeye cartoon The Marry Go Round. Over at Olive's house, Popeye is not having much luck proposing to her. So Shorty grabs Olive and kisses her on the lips to show Popeye how to seduce a woman even though he isn't really attracted to her. Unfortunately for Shorty, Olive winds up falling for him. After a quick costume change, Olive puts on a dress and red shade of lipstick. She manages to kiss him two more times and chases him around the house. Popeye becomes jealous and attempts to beat Shorty up at the same time. Shorty spends the rest of the film trying to escape from both of them.
  • In another Popeye cartoon, Olive Oyl is Sleeping Beauty. At the end, Popeye accidentally steps on her foot and wakes her up. She reacts to seeing him by bellowing "A MAAAA-YUN!" and charging after him, which suddenly terrifies the poor one-eyed sailor.
  • Popeye goes through this again in the Famous Studios short, Hillbilling and Cooing, where he's pursued by a large (think Bluto in drag), man-hungry mountain woman named Possum Pearl. She proved to be too strong for Olive to fight, and Popeye, for obvious reasons, wasn't going to fight off her advances, so it looked like Popeye was going to be dragged off to the alter until Olive managed to eat some of Popeye's spinach. Possum Pearl returned in her own solo cartoon a couple of years later still chasing after reluctant men.
  • While Bluto usually became one of these to Olive Oyl by the end of most of the films by being too aggressive, he manages to gain one himself in ''I'll Be Skiing Ya.’’ In a snow-covered region, when Bluto spots Olive he howls like a wolf. He does this a little too well and attracts a female wolf. The brown furry wolf was tall, had a sexy hourglass figure, red lips, and long eyelashes. She grabbed him by his hair and beard and kissed Bluto's cheek so hard she left a lipstick imprint. Then she batted her eyelashes and gazed at Bluto lovingly. Bluto shooed her away. At the end of the film, Popeye knocked Bluto all the way to Florida. With his skis stuck in the sand, he saw a beautiful woman's curvaceous legs on the beach. So he howled and the female wolf ran up to him, took a second to watch him howl, and kissed his cheek again leaving another lipstick mark. Staring at him once again with her eyelashes fluttering, Bluto was stunned knowing that he was trapped in the sand and chances are more kisses were coming his way from the wolf who mistook his howl for a mating call.
• The Proud Family:
  • Dijonay is unhealthily attached to Sticky Webb. She seems to genuinely think he's her man, despite it being pretty obvious he's easily annoyed with her and wants her to leave him alone. By the times of The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder, he's moved to Japan with his father, deciding not to stay with his cousins in town as to finally be free of her. Despite the note he left for Dijonnay was for Penny to read it, and that Penny said enough of Dijonnay's name to make it clear who he wanted to get away from, Dijonnay doesn't realize it was her that Sticky wanted to get away from, thinking someone else drove him away.
  • Suga Mama is also this to Papi, for Papi always insults her in Spanish, which she doesn't understand and takes them as compliments.
• A large female alligator named Antoinette also falls in love with Donald in the Quack Pack episode "Gator Aid". Constantly puckering her lips in front of him while crawling and swimming after Donald she tries to kiss him several times. She only succeeds on camera once by planting a kiss right on the top of his head. However, she may have kissed him on the lips a few times because at one point she turns him away from the camera, kissing noises are heard and pink hearts float in the air. When we see the two both of their lips are already puckered and Antionette is getting ready for a giant smooch. This is when Donald escapes from her embrace, but Antionette never gives up trying to make out with him. During the cartoon, Donald even has a nightmare that they are married with half alligator and half duck children and in that dream she gives him a peck on the cheek. Sometime after he wakes up, the gator who is five times larger than Donald Duck offers him a pink heart-shaped box of candy. She also offers him a wedding ring while wearing a white veil! This time around Daisy is rather indifferent to the alligator's crush on Donald.
• Ready Jet Go!: Mindy Melendez is a downplayed example. She is of average weight and is very pretty. She seems to like Mitchell, but due to her sneaking up on Mitchell in a few episodes, Mitchell doesn't feel the same way.^note He actually does as evidenced in episodes such as "Detective Mindy" and "Solar System Bake Off"
• Early episodes of The Real Ghostbusters toyed with this, as Janine, the heavily-made-up spiky-haired caricature of 80s femininity^note actually a far cry from Annie Potts' portrayal in the original film, constantly flirted with Egon and was constantly rejected. He was never portrayed as immune to the charms of women other than Janine. Later in the series, she was redesigned to be more attractive and less outlandish, and curiously her relationship with Egon became more sweet and less annoying on all counts.
• Gretchen Grundler from Recess had one in the form of Jeffrey in the episode "The Pest". It's not that he was ugly or anything, but rather because he was rather creepy and obnoxious about his crush on her, e.g. talking about being together forever, poking her, touching her hair.
• Mrs. Buttloaves in The Ren & Stimpy Show is occasionally depicted as an unwanted admirer for Ren.

• She-Ra: Princess of Power: While Frosta is very beautiful, He-Man is creeped out by her advances because she comes on way too strong and gets jealous of any other girl that he interacts with.
• In The Simpsons:
  • It's no secret that Moe Syzlak has a long-time crush on Marge though he respects the sanctity of Homer and Marge's marriage too much to actively pursue her.
  • Artie Ziff, by comparison, doesn't care that Marge is married and that she has rebuffed every advance he has made to her; he wants her no matter the cost.
• In the Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) short "Ro-becca", Rotor constructs a female cat robot to be his lab assistant, but Antoine, who's filling in for Rotor's would-be assistant, inadvertently activates her before she's finished, and she obsessively fixates on him. With tacky hair, a screechy voice, and an intimidating stature, the lovestruck android pursues the poor coyote rain or shine, and the straps on Rotor's inclined table can't contain the superstrong robot he's created.
• At the end of the episode "Cartman Finds Love" from South Park, Cartman is chased by Stacy Mullenberg, the poster child for Halitosis Kids!

• Velda acts as one of these for Crash in the short-lived Stunt Dawgs.
• Superfriends: Darkseid is as obsessed with making Wonder Woman his bride as he is taking over the universe, much to her chagrin.

• Ian Wazselewski from Teacher's Pet has a crush on his classmate Ruth, who is completely disgusted by him.
• Tex Avery was fond of this:
  • The cartoon The Chump Champ has Droopy and Spike competing for the title of "King of Sports", with the prize being a kiss from the "Queen of Sports". After Spike cheats his way to victory, he goes to kiss the Queen, who appears to be a knockout... until her face is revealed. She chases the horrified Spike into the distance, as Droopy informs the audience that "cheaters never win".
  • In Red Hot Riding Hood, Red's grandmother is very forward in trying to catch the Wolf, who reacts with utter panic. The same thing happens with the fairy godmother in Swing Shift Cinderella.
  • Subverted in Little Rural Riding Hood, though: the gawky hick Red inspires paroxysms of lust in both wolves!
• In a turn of events, Little Red Riding Hood is one to the Big Bad Wolf in the Terrytoons cartoon "Wolf's Pardon". It's just one of the many things he's missed out on in the decade he spent in the pen - everyone from the Mother Goose fables has changed, making it difficult for him to get up to his old tricks again upon his release from prison. He decides to stalk (Not-So) Little Red Riding Hood again, only to fall in love with her until she turns around to reveal a face that isn't quite what he expected. To top it off, she's suffocatingly smitten by him immediately and her aggressive pursuit leaves him the one running away!
• Tiny Toon Adventures:
  • This continued with Pepe's female counterpart/successor Fifi La Fume. It was more poignant in the sense that Fifi was blatantly portrayed as being extremely beautiful, but admirers were quickly turned off by her particular scent. Fairly, though, aside from killer good looks, Fifi, in a way, is another sympathetic example, quite possibly due to the execution.
  • Elmyra is this to Montana Max in a couple of episodes, one in which Max reluctantly agrees to go to the prom with her, and another in which he (also reluctantly) goes on a date with her. Subverted at the end of the latter in which he gives her an Accidental Kiss at the end of their date.
    Max: I think I'm in love.
• Total Drama:
  • Sierra definitely counts with her stalkerish obsession with Cody and his apparent fear of her.
  • The homely and geeky-looking Beth is this to Justin, though nowhere near as creepy as Sierra.
  • The scruffy-looking and socially inept Ezekiel is one to Bridgette, seemingly unaware of the fact that she is already in a relationship with Geoff and that she does not have a particularly high opinion of him due to his sexist comments on the first day. Ezekiel later switches his attentions to Anne Maria in Revenge of the Island, but is even more abhorrent than before due to having devolved into a barely sapient subhuman monster.
• The Wacky Races episode "The Super Silly Swamp Sprint" had Dick Dastardly try to scare the other racers by disguising himself as an alligator. One of the ways this plan backfired was that it gave him the unwanted attention of a smitten female alligator.
• On What's New, Scooby-Doo?, Gibby Norton (a geeky inventor) worships the ground on which Velma walks.
• Woody Woodpecker:
  • Used in the cartoon A Fine Feathered Frenzy. Woody sees an ad in the personals about a 'Gorgeous Gal' who is rich and wants to marry a young man. He decides to call her on the phone. With her extremely sexy voice, Gorgeous Gal tells her 'sweetie' that she loves woodpeckers and will be waiting for her 'dream boy' to come on over. Having been seduced, the Woodpecker jumps for joy and heads on over to her mansion. Unfortunately for Woody, it turns out that Gorgeous Gal is an overweight and elderly anthropomorphic bird. Having already taken a liking to Woody over the phone. Gorgeous Gal fell deeper in love and in lust with him as soon as she laid eyes on him. After batting her eyelashes and giving him a big wink, Gorgeous Gal starts to pursue him since she wants to make love to Woody Woodpecker as soon as possible. She chased after and flirted with him endlessly with her beautiful voice ("How 'bout a twosome hon?") despite his reluctance. Offers to dine together, play tennis, admire her toothpick legs ("Cheesecake?"), have make-out sessions and even share a bubble bath together all fell flat since Woody ran away from her at every turn. Being much larger than her 'honey lamb', Gorgeous Gal still manages to forcibly kiss him on his cheeks and lips several times. She eventually traps the Woodpecker in a golden submarine, arranges for a priest to marry them and they sail off for their honeymoon.
  • The cartoon Alley to Bali features two; a light gray gorilla and a giant pink octopus with blue eyes. The octopus likes Woody and both of these girls like Buzz Buzzard. The boys in turn are chasing after a Balinese woman with an hourglass figure and wind up in the clutches of these admirers by mistake. With a tentacle around his neck, the giant octopus presses her big red lips against Woody's cheek twice. Buzz, on the other hand, gets kissed right on the beak by both ladies. However, the gorilla and octopus turn brown in disgust after locking lips with the Buzzard!
  • On The Woody Woodpecker Show short "Date With Destiny", a Cupid decides to teach the Woodpecker a lesson and strikes a male black-and-white sharp-toothed badger with a love arrow. The badger with a very raspy voice says to Woody "Hi ya buddy!" He closes his eyes and puckers his lips while pink hearts appear above his head. The horrified Woodpecker runs down the street with the badger in hot pursuit.
  • In the short "Woody Watcher" a spring-footed speckle-headed woodpecker takes a liking to him. She couldn't speak with the exception of making strange noises and ironically looked like an older animated version of Woody Woodpecker, but with purple dots on her head. When she sees Woody she rushes to hold him and blows him a kiss with little pink hearts escaping from her lips. The disgusted Woodpecker allows her to kiss him on the cheek repeatedly since she is a rare bird and he can charge people money for taking pictures of her. This backfires since she gets more and more passionate with each kiss. So he tries to get away but she grabs him and squeezes him so tight that all of the money he's earned flies away. She does her rendition of Woody Woodpecker's laugh and it doesn't seem like he's escaping her loving embrace any time soon.
  • From the same show, Chilly Willy gains one in the short "Chilly Lilly." A gigantic blue whale who wore a red dress and had blue hair thought he was adorable and said "Come to mama!" Even though he was rather tiny compared to her she still grabbed him and kissed him repeatedly with her gigantic pink lips while they were underwater. His rival Smedley also attracted a female yeti. She busted into his house, put him over his shoulder, and carried him home.
  • Miss Meanie was sometimes this to Wally Walrus even leaving his body covered with lipstick marks once. On occasion, he reciprocated while under the influence of a love potion or cupid's arrow.

• Wunschpunsch: When Tyrannia grew jealous of the attention the weather lady received from men, she and Bubonic cast a spell that made men unable to resist her. Maledictus Maggot became this trope.
