YourVampiresSuck has an example which also counts as lampshading this trope:

* ''LucyTheDaughterOfTheDevil'' has an episode centering around the Special Fathers fighting an invasion of altar boy and choir boy vampires who have been [[strike:[[IncrediblyLamePun praying]]]] preying on Catholic priests. They meet up with a guy who is supposed to get them reacquainted with vampire hunting, with [[LampShaded amusing results]]:
-->'''Nightshade:''' As I'm sure the Special Fathers will tell you, hunting vampires... well, forget everything you've seen in the movies. It's all bunk.\
'''Sister Mary:''' Sunlight?\
'''Nightshade:''' Oh, no, actually, OK. Sunlight is real. Sunlight ''can'' kill a vampire.\
'''Sister Mary:''' Stake in the heart?\
'''Nightshade:''' Y-yeah, hold on, let me give you my spiel, okay?\
'''Sister Mary:''' Sorry.\
'''Nightshade:''' Forget what you've seen in the movies. It's all bunk.\
'''Father Cantalupi:''' You know, Nightshade, I've heard ''[[ThisIsReality that line]]'' in the movies.
