* Tarrant hosted the show from 1998 to 2014, and within that year, only five contestants managed to win the million jackpot. Despite retiring from the show, his ''Who Wants to Be a Millionaire'' was immensely popular, even having word of mouth coming from the Pantheon. There was a debate on who would get to represent the game in that realm, with some siding with Tarrant, given that he was the first presenter of the franchise's history whereas others favoured Creator/RegisPhilbin as many felt that while he may not have been the first, he was definitely the most memorable. When the time came to decide, Chris Tarrant was ultimately chosen to ascend into the Pantheon, representing the franchise that he hosted for 16 years. As compensation, he decided to appoint not just Regis, but also all hosts, most notably his direct successor, Creator/JeremyClarkson, as his heralds out of respectable formality. And with his ascension, a version of ''Who Wants to Be a Millionaire'' for the Pantheon was planned and designated for operation.

* Improvement, toughness, resiliency, and pure grit can all be marked as accurate descriptors of Rocky Balboa. His boxing career was the greatest legend ever told through the face of Sylvester Stallone. Before he even ascended to the Pantheon he was first in line to challenge Ippo Makunouchi for the God of Boxing title when a move was made to affirm the seat, facing him in a match that took place before the Court of the Gods. Ippo barely managed to beat him in the final stretches.
* Annoyed he wasn't the God of Boxing, he continued training so hard to fight Ippo again that the Pantheon just had to recognize his impressive improvement-through-montage skills. His rematch with Ippo is still to be scheduled.
* Stallone was happy that his signature creation could finally ascend, and makes sure to hang around with him. He has since grown closer with Stallone's gang, that includes Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Terminator, Chuck Norris, and Jackie Chan. Stallone's fellow character Rambo, who otherwise is a loner, also likes to spend time with the boxer.
* Whenever he's training he runs around the Pantheon, climbs staircases, and for old times sake, has even been allowed into the House of Food's cold room to punch meat.
* [[Film/RockyIII A former adversary]], Hulk Hogan, was already in the Pantheon, and the two have spent time together.
* Has a good relationship with Mr. Miyagi, given their shared directors, tragedies, and propension for montages, not to mention mentor qualities.
* Hercules, whose Disney version has been compared to Rocky, likes the boxer, and has borrowed Phil to guide some of his training.
* Given he had pet turtles, was impressed to see that species is represented in the Pantheon by four battling reptiles. They have since hung out to box with pizza and cheesesteak afterwards.
* Even if he's back into fighter form, Rocky has opened a branch of his restaurant Adrian's in the House of Food. [[Pantheon/EffectsOfPopularity Weird Al]] is a business partner to make up for "Theme from Rocky XIII (The Rye or the Kaiser)".
* Little Mac, an equally successful supposed underdog, was a long time fan and has since become friends with Rocky. He's using his connections to arrange bouts between Rocky and the rest of the ''Pantheon/PunchOut'' deities.
* Apollo Creed's death still resonates deeply with Rocky, to the point he has found another best friend in Dudley, and shown antipathy towards Russian brawlers Zangief and Soda Popinski. Once Apollo ascended, it was a very emotional moment as both met again.
* While polls were being held regarding potential adversaries, for some reason there were suggestions for him to fight [[Pantheon/{{Hunters}} the Predator]]. Rocky is unsure if he should take it seriously.
* Often teams up with the Fullmetal Alchemist to tell people who've been hurt that they have the ability to keep moving forward.
* Philadelphia native Billy Batson is a fan of his and Rocky has retributed the appreciation by giving him boxing lessons. After all, Rocky feels the kid should be as strong as Shazam, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMKawT1T9iI who also clearly likes the boxer]].

* Small-town cat Danny arrived in Hollywood with dreams of making it big. However, he discovered things were not easy for animals like him, being relegated to stereotypical bit parts that didn't allow them a chance to show what they're capable of. Danny met many other animals in the business who no longer expected anything, including snarky and jaded fellow cat Sawyer. Still, Danny was undeterred and proposed to his colleagues that they put on their own act and prove to the humans that they have something to offer. They ran into some problems as popular child actress Darla Dimple was determined to keep the animals down, but with some improvisation and determination, Danny, Sawyer and their friends managed to show their talent to Hollywood and they were finally taken seriously as actors.
* The House of Theatre and Spectacle took note of these animals' achievements and arranged for them to put on a performance in the Muppet Show, with Kermit and co. being glad to accommodate them. They faced some opposition, as some deities scoffed at the idea of animal actors being on the same level as human ones, and also there was Trollkaiger trying to sabotage them just because. However Danny and Sawyer kept the show going with the same perseverance they showed back in their world. Plus it helped to have the Muppets on their side. After the event, Danny and Sawyer were invited to ascend in order to bring more of their entertainment in, which they took as a great honor and accepted.
* Through their work, they quickly became friends with a fellow animal in the business, Roger Rabbit. Although Danny and Sawyer work in more serious, feature-length productions and Roger Rabbit only shows up in shorts, they could relate to each other in how they all had to contend with being discriminated against in some way or another. Danny and Sawyer were surprised to learn that the prejudice Roger faced didn't stem from him being an animal, but from being a toon, which the rabbit promptly informed them they qualified as. He also warned them to stay away from a certain Judge Doom, who hates toons with a murderous passion despite being one himself. On the other hand, his good pal Eddie Valiant is alright, and Danny and Sawyer hold him in high regard for being a human who could overcome his prejudices.
* There are occasions when Danny and Sawyer are tasked with obtaining a permit to film in some place in the Pantheon, and because of that they have become well-acquainted with the police duo of Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde. In their conversations they have become aware that they have a fair bit in common, given Judy and Nick's world is one where there are daily struggles with bigotry, in this case between carnivores and herbivores. Danny and Sawyer find it lamentable that there are even realities where animals have turned against each other, but find hope in the fact that Judy, who was herself unconsciously prejudiced against carnivores like Nick, managed to become a better person and become inseparable partners with Nick. Judy herself loves Danny's pluck and that he never gave up and managed to achieve his dreams, kind of like her. Sawyer and Nick also relate to each other as former cynics who became better thanks to their bright-eyed partners.
** Sadly, Judy and Nick's archnemesis Dawn Bellwether is also around and she holds on to her belief that carnivores oppress herbivores and thus need to be kept down. Danny and Sawyer are cats, which are carnivores, so Dawn doesn't think highly of them to start with, and the fact that they are good friends with Judy and Nick is just rubbing salt on the wound. With that said, the cats are still just actors, so it's not that much of a priority for her to get rid of them.
* They are fairly frequent customers of the Polar Bear Café, with them enjoying the simple and relaxed atmosphere of the place. The cats are interested in Polar Bear and co. coming from a world where animals and humans co-exist, and that their society seems to be far more harmonious and devoid of prejudice. Polar Bear's puns also make Danny roll in the aisles, despite making Sawyer (and most everybody else) exasperated. Danny has even suggested that Polar Bear become a stand-up comedian and work towards movies from there, but Polar Bear just chuckles good-heartedly at such ideas.
** They have met other animals at the Café, most notably Hubie, Rocko and Mumble, three penguins with a knack for song and dance. Well, not so much on the singing department for Mumble, as Danny and Sawyer found out the hard way. But Danny and Sawyer think the three penguins could do really well in the movies with their talents. Also, one of Danny and Sawyer's Heralds Pudge, who's a penguin, has taken to the three penguins and hopes to make some of their talents his own by the time he grows up. Meanwhile, Penguin (as in Polar Bear's friend) was a bit miffed that he wasn't being considered, so he decided to put on a rakugo session to try to impress Danny and Sawyer, but because of the cultural differences, they didn't really get it, to Penguin's dismay.
* Evidently they don't like any humans who take their lack of care for animals to new extremes, such as Cruella de Vil and her obsession with making fashionable clothes out of animal hides. Ghetsis Harmonia is pretty bad too with his goals to make all Pokemon his slaves; Pokemon are a new concept to Danny and Sawyer, but after meeting some they could tell they were very intelligent creatures even if most couldn't speak clearly, so they find the idea of enslaving them revolting.
* The notorious human-hating animal trio consisting of Koba, Shere Khan and Claudandus take Danny and Sawyer's struggles as another example of why animals should not bother associating with humans and should work towards killing them all instead; they've even invited Danny and Sawyer to join forces with them. Now Danny and Sawyer may have had some difficulties because of human prejudice, but the idea of committing genocide on humans is one they would never entertain for a second and is just plain horrifying to them; they consider the trio to be monstrous for seriously advocating it. Said trio just mockingly lament that the two cats seem to have been totally domesticated, but otherwise leave them, mere actors, alone. For now at least.
* Danny feels pity for Bojack Horseman and thinks it might be nice to help him by giving him parts in his and Sawyer's movies. In Bojack's case, there's no real instances of racism to blame for his fall from glory, only himself, which was rather sobering for Danny to realize, though he still wants to help the horse. Sawyer is more skeptical, especially after hearing about Bojack's behavior towards his friends. To his credit, Bojack has realized that he's been a jackass and is trying to change, and he has expressed gratitude to Danny for giving him a chance. What their collaborations will result in remains to be seen.
* More examples of Hollywood's uglier sides are present in the forms of Norma Desmond and Eve Harrington. While Danny and Sawyer find Norma more pitiful than despicable, since she's clearly not well mentally, Eve is totally reprehensible with how she orchestrated her supposed idol's fall from grace and rose to glory herself (granted, Margo wasn't a nice person either). Eve strongly reminds the cats of Darla and her deviousness masked behind a sugary façade, yet at the same time they worry about their archnemesis ending up bitter and obsessed with past glory like Norma if she doesn't get her act together. While Eve sees the cats, particularly Sawyer, as rivals to get out of the way, the not-all-there Norma is more likely to grab one of them to snuggle with and go on about her glory days.

* Ascended in a massive, [[NightmareFuel freaky]], [[HoYay suggestive]] all-singing-all-dancing show that nobody has ever talked about since. 'Cept Deadpool, but he's weird like that.
* Rumors still abound, however, that he still shows up and tries to convince various deities to do a dance number with him. These rumors remain unconfirmed, mostly because very few ever actually talk about them afterwards.
* Very few realize this, but he's [[Administrivia/NotAnExample not actually representative of his position as many believe]]. While his appearance in his film certainly cames out of nowhere and is strange even in-context, it actually set up a couple important plot elements: Anne Marie gets sick as a result of being in the water for too long, and Charlie's musical-sounding howl that makes King Gator fond of him (and kicks off the musical number) ends up coming back in the ending, his pained howl summoning back the alligator at the end [[spoiler: [[AndroclesLion to save Charlie and kill Carface]]]].
** As stated by [[Pantheon/{{Craft}} Don Bluth]] in an interview, he used this song as an example of his principle that "No song could be just stuck in without a purpose. Every one had to advance the plot or enlighten the audience in some way".
** Doesn't make the scene any less weirder, though.
* King Gator was over the moon when he learned his good friend with the amazing voice had ascended. He's looking forward to making lots of music together. Charlie still finds his very being incredibly confusing and overwhelming, but the huge and powerful gator is handy to have around in a pinch, so Charlie humors him.
