Either he's one very unlucky guard, or Cyril's entire army has his face printed on their underwear.
  • A Running Gag on The Critic involved Jay Sherman losing his pants to reveal a pair of underwear with a (usually embarrassing) movie title printed on the rear (such as Back Draft and My Own Private Idaho).

  • A Running Gag on KaBlam! was the introduction of the "surprising shorts," animated shorts that were not part of any of the show's recurring series.

    Doofenshmirtz: For your information, I had these way before I met you!
    • In "Monsters from the Id", Doofenshmirtz creates an "Underwear-Inator" to put ratty, embarrassing underwear on anyone shot by it. It usually does briefs, but it does give Norm the Giant Robot Man a pair of white boxer shorts with red polka dots.

    • "Master Pho" had these revealed twice from a ninja trick that removes the belt from your pants and reveals your underpants. First to Todd (revealing his light yellow boxers with purple polka dots) when his replacement, the titular Ninja Master Pho, teaches it to him; and second later on to Todd's school bully Donny Rottweiler after he gets what's coming to him via the trick, revealing his boxers with unicorns, rainbows, stars and planets printed on them. This is apparently merchandise from a movie Riley and Dick saw earlier in the episode.
      Riley: Aww, those boxers are so cute!
      Dick: I want a pair!
    • And speaking of Dick, he gets his fair share in "Skate-Gate", wearing boxers with the American flag printed on them while lounging and moping in the living room watching an old broadcast showcasing him in his daredevil prime.
    • And a third time in "Abra-K-Dabra", where after he won his school's talent show for his magic act, Todd bests his rival Buzz by stuffing him in his (Todd's) magic box and performs a disappearing trick, revealing not only Buzz's shorts are gone, but also his pink boxers with bunny faces prints all over, to his humiliation.

The Goofalotatots light the fuses of the bombs to create a small explosion. The Mask is unharmed, apart from sporting a bit of black soot and boxers that are now just plain blue.
    • Since The Mask often gives atomic wedgies to his enemies, various goofy print boxers have ended up over their wearers' heads, along with more traditional tighty-whiteys and plain boxers. Highlights include Sly Eastenegger's skull-print underwear, Doyle's occasional polka-dot pairs, and a Pig Doctor's red hearts on a black background.
