* ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'' is an affectionate parody of [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] comics, with a teensy bit of [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfComicBooks Golden Age]] and [[UsefulNotes/TheBronzeAgeOfComicBooks Bronze Age]] thrown in for good measure. For an animated media and not a printed media, the odd usage of [[WrittenSoundEffect 'POW!'s]] and [[WrittenSoundEffect 'WHAM!'s]] really accentuates this.

** Many Treehouse of Horror segments are affectionate parodies of horror films or shows. Examples include: "The Shinning" (parody of Film/TheShining), "Nightmare on Evergreen Terrace" (parody of Film/NightmareOnElmStreet), and "Fly v. Fly" (parody of Film/TheFly). While they have done their fair share of ShallowParody, Treehouse of Horror XXXIII is a return to form with "The Pookadook", "Death Tome", and "Simpsonsworld" (parodies of The Babadook, Death Note, and Westworld, respectively).

Added DiffLines:

* ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' started as a comedic and affectionate parody of the StandardFantasySetting, especially from ''Franchise/DungeonsAndDragons''. For example, the traditional races typical of the genre use modern slang, and the evil wizard who kidnaps princesses is a lonely and anti-social IneffectualSympatheticVillain. As the series [[CerebusSyndrome became more serialized and further built its own universe]], this aspect became less prominent, though there continued to be references to the fantasy genre.

* ''WesternAnimation/ReBoot'' feature at least one affectionate parody in "virtually" every episode. One of the ways they can do this is the nature of the Games, where it transforms an area of Mainframe and comes with its own built-in story. But one interesting thing they did was that each parody flowed with the theme of the episode or was merely a fun backdrop to the main story. It is most notable in the third season, where ''every'' episode owes something to some franchise or genre. Just in the first half: ''Franchise/EvilDead'', ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'', ''Film/JamesBond'', ''Franchise/MortalKombat'', ''Film/{{Braveheart}}'' / ''Series/XenaWarriorPrincess''[=/=]''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'', ''Franchise/StarTrek''[=/=]ComicBooks, ''Series/ThePrisoner1967'', Spaghetti Westerns and {{Pirate}}[=/=]GreatEscape.
