Kenny is not a strong example. He\'s not clearly immortal, his reappearance simply being unexplained in a show with a purposefully loose continuity, then subject to a joke explanation, then he\'s killed off. All too complex for a clean example.

* \\\'\\\'SouthPark\\\'\\\': [[TheyKilledKenny Kenny]] via GenreSavvy. Lampshaded on several occasions; in \\\"Cartmanland,\\\" when Cartman is found liable for Kenny dying on a roller coaster, he protests, \\\"Kenny? He dies all the time!\\\" \\\"Cherokee Hair Tampons\\\" features a RunningGag where Kenny becomes increasingly annoyed at everyone being so concerned about Kyle\\\'s possible death given how callous they are about Kenny\\\'s safety:
-->\\\'\\\'\\\'Stan:\\\'\\\'\\\' Holistic medicine is going to kill my friend [Kyle]...
-->\\\'\\\'\\\'Kenny:\\\'\\\'\\\' You never seem to care when I die.
-->\\\'\\\'\\\'Stan:\\\'\\\'\\\' He\\\'s gonna die and there\\\'s nothing I can do to save him! (starts crying)
-->\\\'\\\'\\\'Kenny:\\\'\\\'\\\' Now that does it! I have had enough of this bullshit! Screw you guys, I\\\'m going home! (starts to walk away and is immediately killed)
-->\\\'\\\'\\\'Stan:\\\'\\\'\\\' (crying) I\\\'ll never see Kyle again!
** Yet in \\\"Kenny Dies,\\\" which was originally going to be Kenny\\\'s KilledOffForReal episode, Stan is appropriately torn up about it.
** Taken to its logical conclusion in \\\"Mysterion Rises,\\\" where Kenny claims his inability to die is his super-power.
*** He does die, but [[spoiler:his mother gets immediately pregnant and gives birth to an identical boy, whom they name Kenny and who grows into his normal age overnight, having all the memories of the previous one. Essentially, he is only immortal for as long as his mother is alive. Thanks, Cult of [[CthulhuMythos Cthulhu]]]].
