* The trope is mentioned and lampshaded in ''Series/FawltyTowers'', when a guest complains about the view of her hotel room not being interesting:
-->'''Basil''': Well may I ask what you expected to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House perhaps? The Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the plain?
* The view out of ''Series/{{Frasier}}'''s apartment of the Space Needle is actually a photograph taken from a hill that didn't actually have any residential buildings on it when the series was made. As of 2014 there are now apartment buildings on Queen Anne hill, the source of the photograph.
* In ''Series/{{Lost}}'', Boone's hotel room in Sydney was apparently suspended in the air above Sydney Harbour, as that is the only way he could have had that view of the Opera House through his window.
