* ''CoolWorld'': an alternate universe exists, populated by toons (or Doodles as they were called; the humans were called Noids).
* The ''{{Fringe}}'' episode "Brown Betty" MIGHT have featured such an alternate universe, as seen when story-world Nina Sharp communicates with story-world William Bell using the window device (though this may have been a choice to go for a retro-aesthetic).

* ''Comicbook/CaptainCarrotAndHisAmazingZooCrew'' took place on an alternate earth (Earth-C), which {{Superman}} crossed over into once. They have their own alternate too, Earth C-Minus, where the events that Rodney Rabbit writes in comic books take place for real.

'''Abed:''' ''[Leaping out from behind a bin]'' Wait! You don't have to believe.\\
'''Troy:''' ''[Clearly heartbroken]'' I didn't!... I didn't... ''[He storms off]''\\
'''Abed:''' I may have done some damage there.

* Type II: An alternate (or parallel) universe exists alongside our world, and it is populated by cartoon characters.
