History Main / NoKnees

* [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Pinkie Pie]] from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''' occasionally displays this for RuleOfFunny, such as a humorous backwards run done in ''Swarm of the Century''. Otherwise, her knees are just as existent as the rest of the cast's.

* [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] in ''VideoGame/LegoIsland'', which, since all the characters are LEGO minifigs, displays this by default..

* The main heroine of ''VideoGame/NarbacularDrop'', was called Princess No-Knees--but it's not immediately obvious whether she lacks them, as it's a nickname referring to her inability to jump.

* Naturally, being another Franchise/{{LEGO}} adaptation, ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie'' features this with its characters, which is lampshaded when Emmett does "jumping jacks".

* [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Pinkie Pie]] from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''' occasionally does this for RuleOfFunny, such as a humorous backwards run done in ''Swarm of the Century''.
** In ''One Bad Apple'' (and other episodes), some scenes show she does have knees...only, they happen to bend in the opposite direction horse limbs are supposed to bend!

* [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Pinkie Pie]] from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''' has a humorous backward-running style that seems to suggest she has no knees whatsoever in ''Swarm of the Century''.

** Also lampshaded at one point in the LEGO webcomic ''Webcomic/FabulandHousewives''.

* The main heroine of ''Narbacular Drop'', the game whose team was hired by Creator/{{Valve|Software}} to work in the SpiritualSuccessor and EvenBetterSequel called ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}'', was called Princess No-Knees--but it's not immediately obvious whether she lacks them, as it's a nickname referring to her inability to jump.

* It would be easier to list entities in ''Videogame{{Minecraft}}'' that do have knees than the ones who do not.

** Well, it slows him up a bit, but as a Doomy Tale of [[{{Malaproper}} Macramé]], it isn't very scary.
*** Turning Homestar ''into'' macramé, however...

* Sekoila Zarner from ''WebAnimation/ZanyToTheMax'' has no knees. Because of this, the way she walks is very interesting. Her legs spin rapidly as if around an axis, to the point where WheelOFeet is used.

* Averted in ''Franchise/{{Ninjago}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/LegendsOfChima'', where characters bend their limbs despite also being LEGO minifigures.

** Justified, due to her probably being a low-tier reality warper.

Some artists go (stop?) an extra step if a female character has a skirt. The legs might be drawn nearly ''straight all the way down'' even while stationary, as if she doesn't have knees, thighs, or defined hips.

* Aside from having a (rather notorious) problem with feet and pouches, RobLiefeld has done this, with both men and women. Although the women tended more to have ''one'' knee that seemed to branch out into the rest of each leg.

* [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] in ''LegoIsland'', which, since all the characters are LEGO minifigs, displays this by default..

** Also [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] at one point in the LEGO webcomic ''FabulandHousewives''.

* In the 2009 ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'' [[HalloweenEpisode Halloween]] [[http://www.homestarrunner.com/ween09.html toon]], "[[DoomyDoomsOfDoom Doomy Tales of the Macabre]]", Strong Sad removes Homestar's knees--to no very great effect.

* Averted in Franchise/{{Ninjago}} and Franchise/LegendsOfChima, where characters bend their limbs despite also being LEGO minifigures.

* Pintsize from ''QuestionableContent'' originally had no knees or elbows, but during the course of the comic he happily received upgraded limbs.

* [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Pinkie Pie]] from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''' has [[http://denver.mylittlefacewhen.com/media/f/img/mlfw379_130561687418.gif a humorous backward-running style]] that seems to suggest she has no knees whatsoever in ''Swarm of the Century''.

-->'''Mama Brickolini:''' Papa, you're just imagining those things!
-->'''Papa:''' Imagining knees? ...Maybe you're right?
