Added DiffLines:

* WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}} and most of his friends are consistently portrayed as being well read, albeit at an age- and personality-appropriate level. In "The Rat Who Came to Dinner", his SternTeacher Mr. Ratburn's roof caves in and Arthur's parents volunteer to put him up until the repairs are done. Arthur is afraid of being judged for his taste in reading materials, and borrows a bunch of advanced science books from the Brain to display on his shelf, with titles like "Spline Extrusion" and "The Copernican Universe Model."

* In the Literature/{{Discworld}} of Creator/AAPessimal, nerdy professor Ponder Stibbons has been allowed a girlfriend who became a wife. She is also an academic, in this case a zoologist. They have had three daughters. Both the older two are above-average bright and apply their intelligence practically, one as a witch, the other as [[TykeBomb student Assassin]]. The third, however, has genius-level intellect. Where other little girls read comics, she will pick up her father's copy of ''The Scientifick Pseudopolitian''. Ponder is resigned to the fact his daughter Ruth will probably end up explaining the difficult bets to him.

* Bella of ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' rereads ''Literature/WutheringHeights'' "for fun" and it's smugly emphasized that is is "something not many people do". Earlier in the series, it's implied that she's a Creator/JaneAusten fan, too. This one suffers heavily from SmallReferencePools.
