This leads to the whole group getting kicked off the flight.
* ''[[Film/AceVentura Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls]]'': When on a plane, Ace starts screaming that there's someone on the wing before revealing he was joking.

* ''Series/MuppetsTonight'': In the Creator/WhoopiGoldberg episode, Miss Piggy is on a plane after the events of the episode and sees what she thinks is a creature on the wing of the plane. She panics and asks her seatmate on the plane if he saw it too. Her seatmate is none other than Creator/WilliamShatner himself, who comments: "Oh, I've been complaining about that guy for years. Nobody ever does anything about it."
* ''Series/ThirdRockFromTheSun'': One episode guest starred Creator/WilliamShatner and a reference is made to the fact that both Shatner and Creator/JohnLithgow starred in versions of the episode. The series had set up a seasons spanning BrickJoke in "Frozen Dick" where Dick (Lithgow) freaks out upon seeing "something on the wing" which he's told is simply the engine. When William Shatner is brought on in season four as The Big Giant Head, he arrives via plane and has this to say.
-->'''Sally Solomon:''' How was your trip, sir?\\
'''The Big Giant Head:''' ''Horrifying'', at first. I looked out the window and... I saw something on the wing of the plane!\\
'''Dick Solomon:''' The same thing happened to me!
* ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'': The Creator/JudeLaw hosted episode had a sketch with Law in the Shatner role and Creator/BobbyMoynihan as the gremlin.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'': In "[[Recap/AnimaniacsEpisode73 Gimme a Break]]", Slappy tries to get away, but ends up seated next to a Shatner caricature, who says, "There... is... someTHING... on... the PLANE!" When Slappy moves away from Shatner, he picks up a device and says, "BeamMeUpScotty."
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'': The ''[[ShowWithinAShow Scary Door]]'' episode seen at the beginning of "[[Recap/FuturamaS3E15IDatedARobot I Dated a Robot]]" has parodies of several ''Twilight Zone'' episodes, including "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet". Also, in "[[Recap/FuturamaS7E5ZappDingbat Zapp Dingbat]]", Zapp Brannigan, who is a Shatner {{Expy}}, is bored and asks Kif to go outside the ship and pretend to be a gremlin.
* ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyBravo'': In an episode where all three segments parody ''The Twilight Zone'', the first segment parodies "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet", with a clown replacing the gremlin.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': The second segment of "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS5E5TreehouseOfHorrorIV Treehouse of Horror IV]]" is titled "Terror at 5 1/2 Feet" with Bart in the Shatner role and the school bus replacing the plane. At one point, the bus bumps off Hans Moleman, who is driving an [[TakeThat AMC Gremlin]].
* The ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'' Halloween special "[[WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventuresNightGhoulery Night Ghoulery]]" parodies this episode with Plucky imitating Shatner's staccato delivery, and has many references to Shatner's role on ''Star Trek'', such as having Uhura appear as a flight attendant. The gremlin in this case is portrayed by the gremlin from ''WesternAnimation/FallingHare''.
