* ''Series/ThatsSoRaven'': Most of the time, while Raven and Chelsea were off doing some disguise adventure, Eddie was the the occasional big brother figure to Raven's brother Corey or the other son to Raven's Dad.

* ''Series/ModernFamily'' had this in The Wild where the male cast hunted the eagle and finally confessed about their fears to each other while Haley and Alex helped Gloria and Claire with a pizza delivery man.

* ''Series/DawsonsCreek'' had some episodes like this. One that comes to mind is "Road Trip," where Dawson and Pacey go into the city to hit on girls and Joey and Jen deal with a rumor a jock started about Joey.

* Sort of subverted in ''Series/BrooklynNineNine'''s "Paranoia." the ensemble splits between Rosa's bachelorette party and Adrian's stag party. It ''would'' be a perfect example of this trope, except Charles is at the bachelorette party, due to being one of Rosa's closest friends, enough that she asked him to be her "man of honor." On the other hand, Charles is rather InTouchWithHisFeminineSide.

** One early episode with the full ensemble sees the guys planning on attending a screening of ''Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk''. Amy originally plans to join them, but upon hearing that Bernadette and Penny are planning a girl's night, she decides to do that instead. It eventually becomes her first-ever slumber party.
** In "The Bakersfield Expedition," the guys head to a comic book convention in full ''Franchise/StarTrek'' gear. Amy, Penny, and Bernadette, who don't understand why they're so into comics, decide to get a few issues for themselves to see what all the fuss is about--and end up [[NotSoAboveItAll getting into a nerdy argument]] about [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Thor]].
** Two separate episodes saw Raj and Sheldon tagging along on the women's "girls' night out." In the first, Amy becomes upset when she finds out that Raj had crushes on Penny and Bernadette, but not her; in the second, Sheldon reveals that he's a [[HiddenDepths skilled dancer]] thanks to cotillion training in his youth, and the women insist on dragging him to a ballroom dancing group to show off.

* In an episode of ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'', Robin, Beast Boy and Cyborg are having a boys' night out, so Starfire decides to rope Raven and Jynx (who she has to break out of prison) into a girls' night out. The boys do things like eat fries and try on hats, while the girls bring bumper cars to life and lead a high speed chase. Each side thinks their night was better.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'': Episode 60 has the boys and the girls split up and go to different places. {{Subverted| Trope}} since Stumpy winds up ditching the other guys, [[DisguisedInDrag disguising himself as a girl]] and joining the girls.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/HarleyQuinn'' episode "Bachelorette," [[VillainousHarlequin Harley]] surprises [[GreenThumb Poison Ivy]] with a bachelorette party on Themyscira, home of ComicBook/WonderWoman where [[LadyLand no man may enter.]] Since Ivy doesn't have many friends, Harley invites Catwoman, Nora Fries (Mr. Freeze's wife), and a childhood friend of Ivy's named Jennifer to come too, and the women end up foiling a plot by Lex Luthor and Eris to steal the island. It also leads to Harley and Ivy getting drunk and [[ClosetKey having sex for the first time]], causing all manner of issues--not the least of which is that Ivy is engaged to Kite Man. Speaking of Kite Man, the B-plot of the episode has him, King Shark, Clayface, and Ivy's talking plant Frank having a bachelor party of their own, with King Shark having to deal with an ArrangedMarriage.

** In "Marjorine," Cartman convinces the other guys that the girls have found a way to see the future with untold PsychicPowers. The girls are actually just using a paper fortune teller (or cootie catcher) for fun, but the boys insist on creating a ZanyScheme to steal the fortune teller for themselves by faking Butters's death and then having him infiltrate a slumber party as "Marjorine," the new girl in school.
** In "Board Girls," some of the guys at school form a club, "Dice Studz," for tabletop gaming. A few of the girls want to join and prove that they're extremely good at all manner of games, leaving the boys feeling desperate. [[HeManWomanHater Cartman]] leads a push for Congress to make Dice Studz just for boys again, only for the plan to [[GoneHorriblyRight backfire horribly]] when the girls simply [[StartMyOwn start their own club]] that proves much more popular--and Cartman can't join because of his own requests to Congress.
* ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'': "The Last Mabelcorn"’s A plot is about the four core female characters (Mabel, Wendy, Candy and Grenda) on a mission to get unicorn hair to protect the Mystery Shack from the BigBad. The B plot is about Dipper and [[spoiler: Stanford]] studying backup plans for protection and [[spoiler: the origins of Bill Cipher’s connection to Gravity Falls.]]

This is particularly common with a ThreeAmigos setup (two girls one guy/two guys one girl), and how the odd man out either feels lonely, or more commonly gets a side adventure with a minor cast member.

* ''Modern Family'' had this in The Wild where the male cast hunted the eagle and finally confessed about their fears to each other while Haley and Alex helped Gloria and Claire with a pizza delivery man.

** This is actually pretty common in episodes where Austin is absent. Another episode, "The Snow Fort", has Pablo and Tyrone as Mounties guarding a gigantic snowball and Uniqua and Tasha as ski patrollers who help anyone who needs it. [[ItMakesSenseInContext The girls think someone in the fort needs to be rescued]], but when they come to the fort, the boys think they want to steal the snowball, so they turn on their booby traps and cause a lot of SlapstickKnowsNoGender. It's not until the end of the episode that both sides see the situation from the other side.

** In "The Bakersfield Expedition," the guys head to a comic book convention in full ''Franchise/StarTrek'' gear. Amy, Penny, and Bernadette, who don't understand why they're so into comics, decide to get a few issues for themselves to see what all the fuss is about--and end up [[NotSoAboveItAll getting into a nerdy argument]] about ComicBook/{{Thor}}.

* the GirlsNightOutEpisode is specific to one gender, this is not.
* the GirlsNightOutEpisode does not have a subplot involving the other gender.

This Trope is similar to GirlsNightOutEpisode, with some expansions:
* GirlsNightOutEpisode is specific to one gender, this is not.
* GirlsNightOutEpisode does not involve a subplot involving the other gender.
* While GirlsNightOutEpisode is used as an opportunity to show off the few female members of the cast interacting with each other, this trope can apply to either gender and the purpose is less of a "just because we need to focus on the women" and more circumstantial.

** "Visit" has Chip and Ben go with Jimmy to visit the kids' dad in prison. Sabrina meanwhile goes with Mickey to see the kids' mom in prison too.
