* During the ''Roleplay/DCNation'' Olympics Arc, it was completely unintentional for Hades to actually kill Arsenal. The intent by the plot-runner and Hades-mun was just to get him high, removing him from the fight. The fact the Roy player ran with it and made Hades simulate a heroin ''overdose'' completely changed the ending, prompting the SadisticChoice the Greek Gods would force on Donna later.
* ''Roleplay/SurvivalOfTheFittest'':
** Less funny than dramatic, but Brittanny Ashworth's death in V2. The character's handler said, in an OOC note at the end of his first post with her, "Anybody after a kill feel free to take a shot at her." Of course, somebody interpreted this a bit too literally, [[{{Godmodders}} godmoding]] the character's death at the hands of his villain character. After a little debate, it was left in.
** Also, an important part of V3 character's Adam Reeves' backstory revolves around him having his lip torn by a fish-hook hold in a fight. It was suggested the culprit of this injury was the older brother of Maxie Dasai. The more the handlers thought about the idea, the better it sounded, and it was simply thrown in.
* ''Roleplay/{{AJCO}}'':
** While building the original facility for the roleplay sets, A_J's player (the aptly named AJ) accidentally dug through into bedrock, exposing the endless blackness underneath the Minecraft world. She created a lab room around it, and many [=RPs=] later the Void is the most important plot point of the whole series.
** A_J's distinctive BlackEyesOfEvil also came about when Pythosblaze, Frances' player, drew her first fanart of A_J and misinterpreted AJ's badly-shaded skin as having completely black eyes. AJ rolled with it, and it was explained in-RP as one of the side-effects of continuous exposure to the Void.
** Similarly, Breyos' and Dell's players both drew Vinnie with pointy ears when they were meant to be a human, and Vinnie's player Cameo decided to keep it and explain it as plastic surgery due to [[AllTheOtherReindeer dramatic bullying on their home planet]].
* Some elements of ''RolePlay/WeAreAllPokemonTrainers'' were created simply because someone did something random and the rest decided it was good enough to throw in. Examples include:
** Jane's inexplicable Southern accent at the beginning of the RP being explained as a Hoennese (In particular Mossdeep) accent.
** Champloo, Dune's Lucario, decided to make a batch of [[SupremeChef super-chocolaty brownies]]. It was suggested that, do to the sheer endorphin-releasing goodness of that much chocolate, they should be able to reduce a Shadow Pokemon's shadow gauge. This is eventually how Vega the Drilbur purified.
* A decent part of the plot of ''Roleplay/RubyQuest'' occurs because Weaver took a few of /tg/'s silly and/or unexpected suggestions seriously. When somebody asked to put a severed hand up a pneumatic mail chute, up the hand went, [[spoiler: and it was later used to reveal that Ruby used to be murderously violent]]. When /tg/ wanted to bash their way through puzzles, those puzzles were very quickly solved. When /tg/ directed Ruby to lick the Fleshy Prototube, they discovered it tasted bad. When the players voted to [[spoiler: save Jay, three people escaped the Metal Glen instead of two]].

* ''Series/TheMuppetShow'':
** In the Creator/CandiceBergen episode, Kermit ended the episode by attempting to pie Fozzie Bear in the face. However, Kermit didn't get enough cream on Fozzie's face, so he pied Fozzie again and ended up hitting part of Bergen's shirt. Fozzie said, "Look what you just did!"
** A change that became an {{establishing character moment}} for Miss Piggy: in one of her earliest appearances, the script called for her to slap Kermit over some disagreement. Frank Oz, however was having trouble trying to do a convincing-looking slap. He eventually got frustrated and had her karate-chop Kermit with a wild yell. The rest is history.
* More of a meta example, but it still fits. During pre-production for ''Series/MuppetsTonight'', the performers started fooling around with random characters to work out characters for the show. When Bill Baretta started singing with the Johnny Fiama puppet, no one was listening, so Brian Henson picked up a random monkey puppet and yelled at everyone to listen to Johnny. This resulted in the character of Sal.
* ''Series/SesameStreet'' is known to do this with their "Muppet and Kid" segments, in which the Muppet asks the kid something and they reply. In the most well-known of the bunch, Kermit was supposed to sing the ABC's with a little girl. Only the child decided to have her own little joke by shouting "Cookie Monster!" at various points in the song. Jim Henson played along with it, creating [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYIRO97dhII one of the funniest moments in the show's history]].
* A more dramatic example from ''Series/{{Thunderbirds}}'': while filming the climactic landing sequence of "Trapped In The Sky", the string holding one of the Elevator Cars onto the rolling road suddenly snapped, causing it to veer out of control and crash. Special effects director Derek Meddings was so impressed by the realism of the crash that he convinced the Andersons to rewrite the script to incorporate it, adding a shot of the out-of-control Elevator Car crashing into a parked aircraft.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Radio]]
* ''Radio/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy'':
** The comically anguished scream presented as "this recording of a man being put into the Vortex" is actually a recording of Simon Jones reacting to a piano lid smashing his fingers.
** In an earlier episode, the Golgafrincham B Ark has "tired TV producers" aboard. This was supposed to be "Tri-D TV producers", but the scripts were misprinted and the production team thought the new line was just as good as the original.
* During the episode "TV Documentary" of ''Radio/TheNavyLark'' there's been a RunningGag about Leading Seaman Riddle being called to the Bridge but he never turns up. During the climax the messenger says that he realises where Riddle has been all this time.
--> "I'm Reading Seama-" ''[audience explodes with laughter and the actor stumbers for a short while]'' "I'm Leading Seaman Riddle!" ''[audience cheers]''
* In "Radio/BleakExpectations" Anthony Head, in the role of Gently Benevolent, is pretending to be an American named Harlan J Trashcan and suing Pip Bin over the royalties for the invention of the bin. Part way through the court scene he had trouble getting back into his (very, very obviously fake) American accent after two other characters had been speaking. In the process of attempting to get into the accent he says "sorry, can't get the accent". This was left in, along with the slightly odd sounds he made trying to get the accent back, and is not remotely out of place (nor is it at all surprising that Pip still does not immediately realise what's going on).

* Creator/RASalvatore was working on a ''Literature/ForgottenRealms'' novel starring a barbarian named Wulfgar. His editor called and told him the book needed a sidekick... now. Salvatore panicked for a moment, then says, "A drow... Yeah, a drow ranger... [[Literature/TheLegendOfDrizzt Drizzt Do'Urden]], of D'aermon N'achezbaeron, Ninth House of Menzoberranzan." Thus began the life of the dark elf that launched a million copycats (and mispronunciations).[[note]] http://www.rasalvatore.com/sidemenu/sampleChapters/de.html[[/note]]
* Creator/JamesJoyce was plagued by problems with his eyes. This led to a frequent need to employ the use of dictation when writing ''Literature/FinnegansWake''. During one session, someone knocked on the door and Joyce said, "Come in," which the typist accidentally added to the text. Joyce told him to keep it.
* Commander Vimes from ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' was thrown together from clichés so Carrot would have someone to interact with after arriving in Ankh-Morpork. He ended up taking on a life of his own and becoming one of the most interesting and important characters in the series.
* In the ''Literature/JamesBond'' novels, Bond originally drove a Bentley, which was destroyed in ''Literature/{{Moonraker}}''. As Ian Fleming was working on ''Literature/{{Goldfinger}}'', he recieved a letter saying "I hope you have the decency to fix Bond up with a decent bit of machinery - I would suggest an Aston Martin". The Aston went on to become ''the'' iconic Bond car. He switched Bond's WeaponOfChoice from a somewhat underpowered .25ACP Beretta to the iconic Walther PPK in similar circumstances, even partially basing the initial characterisation of Q on the author of the letter.
** Fleming was also impressed enough by Creator/SeanConnery's performance in the movies that he made Bond canonically Scottish.
* This happened in-universe in the ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'' setting. Aulë, one of the Valar sent to craft the world before the coming of the mortal races, created the Dwarfs in secret so he'd have students to teach but could not give them souls. The god of the setting, Eru Ilúvatar, adopted them and gave them souls himself even though they weren't originally part of his plan for the world. This caused some strife down the line, but since [[SatanicArchetype Melkor]] had already screwed things up beyond recognition and they were specifically built to resist his corruption it worked out okay. The Ents also weren't in the original plan, but were made at the request of Aulë's wife Yavanna as guardians of the wild places.
* Parts of ''Literature/MalazanBookOfTheFallen'' were gamed in homebrewed TabletopGame/{{Gurps}} campaigns. Most famous among them is the sequence at the start of ''Literature/HouseOfChains'', where a character that was supposed to be an important NPC -- and thus an important character later in the book series -- gets offed unceremoniously by a frustrated player, which Creator/StevenErikson equally unceremoniously transferred into the written story.
* ''Literature/NinaTanleven'': InUniverse example - Slopnuggets are cookies that ''rely'' on this trope. They're made by taking whatever the baker thinks will make a good cookie and tossing it in a bowl; the only rule is to include the basics like eggs and baking powder, and go light on things like pickles and peppers. Results vary, and while the results are a little ''weird'' sometimes, Mr. Tanleven and Nine have never made a batch they can't eat.
* ''Literature/HannahSwensen'': InUniverse example in ''Blueberry Muffin Murder'', where Hannah mentions an incident in high school when she, Andrea and Janie were all at Hannah's home studying, and Hannah decided to make grilled cheese sandwiches for them. She'd already started when she found out they were out of regular cheese, so she sliced some cream cheese instead and used that in place of the regular cheese. The trio considered the resulting sandwiches to be very tasty, and Hannah's been making them ever since.

* ComicBook/LexLuthor was originally drawn with [[EvilRedhead red hair]], but was abruptly changed to [[BaldOfEvil bald]] after an artistic mistake by illustrator Leo Nowak. Not only has it stuck with Luthor's popular image ever since, but was indirectly responsible for Luthor taking the Ultra-Humanite's place as Supes' arch nemesis as DC didn't want two bald mad scientists battling Superman (and thus Ultra-Humanite gained his trademark tendency to BodySurf and was PutOnABus for several decades).
* During one arc of ''ComicBook/{{Invincible}}'', [[spoiler: Omni-Man]] marries an insect-like alien, and there's a panel of him kissing her and Invincible looking disgusted. According to the sketchbook in the back, the artist made this as a joke and Robert Kirkman decided to keep it in the actual issue.
* ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}'s iconic mask was due to this trope -- when he joined the ComicBook/XMen in ''Giant-Size X-Men'' #1, he was meant to keep the same mask design that he had when he first appeared in ''ComicBook/IncredibleHulk'' #181. However, the person who drew it, made the ears and eyes too wide. However, when it was shown, they thought that it made him look like Franchise/{{Batman}} and was kept in.
* In the script for an issue of ''ComicBook/{{Aquaman}}: The Atlantis Chronicles'', Peter David described the "face" of the meteor that destroyed Atlantis. He meant it metaphorically, but the artist, working from a script translated into Spanish, took him literally and drew the meteor with a skull face on it. When he saw the art, David said "Keep it," reasoning that the only thing more terrifying than a meteor heading right for you is a meteor heading right for you WITH A SKULL ON IT.
* Done in-universe in two Italian ComicBook/DisneyMouseAndDuckComics stories:
** In ''Il Papero del Mistero'' ("The Duck of Mystery") Scrooge sets himself and his relatives to make a soap opera, and specifically tells everyone that he won't give them any script, only character names, initial roles and a scenario and then they'll have to improvise. Cue such gems as an episode where everyone but Scrooge's character get poisoned by the others (in two occasions by ''accident'', because Gus' character stole a slice from a previously poisoned cake and the nephews' characters made Grandma Duck's character taste their attempt at the formula of a Coca Cola {{Expy}} and Grandma Duck decided they failed), Donald faking an AlienInvasion episode when the other actors go on strike, and ''Jubal Pomp photobombing his way in the story with attempts on Scrooge's life'' ([[WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs it's that kind of story]]).
** In ''Topokolossal'' Mickey and friends are tricked by Pete, Phantom Blot and Portis (who had made a good theft but feared Mickey would expose them) into starring in a sci-fi telefilm whose director is a sadist named [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Annabel Lecter]], and decided to imitate ''Il Papero del Mistero''. It ''starts'' with Mickey's character [[ItMakesSenseInContext using a baguette as a sword to fight a giant inflatable rat in the castle of the Sleeping Beauty (Eega had been hired as a runner and procured those things as a test]]. She wanted to ''eat'' the baguette, but O'Hara got to it first), and gets progressively crazier.
* Creator/GeorgePerez was designing Comicbook/{{Starfire}} when Joe Orlando passed by, looked at the sketches and suggested that Perez make her hair longer. [[RapunzelHair Perez listened]].
** Perez and his career in general has been a series of these, as he was well known for adding more panels and [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters characters]] than the writer initially suggested.
* ''ComicBook/{{Planetary}}'' #7 was supposed to have a ComicBook/JohnConstantine {{Expy}} shave his head and ditch his trenchcoat to become [[ComicBook/TheInvisibles King Mob]]. Artist John Cassaday instead drew him as [[ComicBook/{{Transmetropolitan}} Spider Jerusalem]]. Creator/WarrenEllis was amused enough to let it slide.

* Creator/NormanRockwell created the models for his paintings by posing real people and taking their picture. One of his works depicts a young couple filling out their marriage license. Originally he intended to depict the presiding clerk in "paternal beaming" mode, but when one of the photos caught the clerk-model slumped in his chair, staring absently off into space, that was what went into the [[https://uploads7.wikiart.org/images/norman-rockwell/marriage-license-1935.jpg final picture]].
