* ''WesternAnimation/ElTigreTheAdventuresOfMannyRivera'' episode "The Grave Escape"; Taking place on ''Dia De Los Muertos'', Manny feels he's getting too old for the holiday (Despite his father and Grandpapi being all for it) when Sartana of the Dead attacks with a monster formed from Miracle City's unremembered dead ("Sartana of the Dead!?" cries Rodolpho, "Attacking on the Day of the Dead!? Actually, that makes sense."). Manny and Frida end up getting sent down to the Land of the Dead, where they recruit Riveras from the past to get back to the surface in order to defeat Sartana, including the original [[LegacyCharacter El Tigre]], which does prove that (For Manny) indecision ''does'' run in the family.
