* ''Series/InForAPenny'' was filled to the brim with jokes about toilets and bodily functions, fitting as it was set in a public convenience. This was also part of the reason the series was viewed so unfavourably by the public, who found it immature at best.

** In "Hold the Door", Oprah confronts Olive, Otto and Oscar at the doors to the Dinosaur Room and ask them where Ori is. Olive quickly says that he's eating lunch. Otto quickly says that he's going to the bathroom. Oscar, on the other hand, deems it fit to [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs combine the two so that the lie is that Ori's eating lunch in the bathroom,]] to which Oprah expresses delight that [[EatingLunchAlone "I'm glad ''someone's'' finally using the bathroom lunch table."]]

* ''Series/OddSquad'' has a bit of a RunningGag throughout the first half of Season 1, where agents would often make bathroom/Mathroom puns by saying that they "really need to go to the Mathroom." The Mathroom in question isn't an actual bathroom, but rather, it's a different world made out of papers that help agents solve problems. By "Not So Splash", this was phased out in favor of smartwatches that accomplish the same things the Mathroom does without the ToiletHumor.
** One slide in the opening theme shows a single key, which Olive describes as being the key for Precinct 13579's bathroom.

** "Not So Splash" has a scene where Olive and Otto essentially do the equivalent of walking in on someone in a one-toilet bathroom who is in the middle of relieving themselves, and then proceed to ''watch'' them relieve themselves.
--> '''Olive and Otto:''' Oh. Hi, Orchid.\\
'''Orchid:''' You guys ever hear of knocking before going into the Mathroom?\\
'''Olive:''' We didn't know you were in here.\\
'''Otto:''' Sorry.\\
'''Orchid:''' It's okay. I'm almost finished.

* ''Series/BreakingBad'':
** In "Bit By a Dead Bee", Hank brings in Hector to question if Jesse was at his house the other day. Although his testimony could easily put Jesse behind bars, Hector [[EvenEvilHasStandards refuses to cooperate with the police under any circumstances]], and instead makes his antagonism clear by looking Hank straight in the eye and crapping his pants, with some leaking onto the floor.
** In "Down", Jesse's parents kick him out of his house after they discover the meth lab in the basement. Unable to find temporary accommodations on such short notice, he breaks into the repair yard where his RV is located to spend the night there. Unfortunately, his plan to break in involves climbing on top of a porta-potty, which is ''not'' built to support the weight of a person standing on it. The roof collapses, sending Jesse plunging into the holding tank. He has to sleep with a gas mask on to not suffocate himself with his own noxious stench. And then of course when he goes to reconvene with Walt the next day...
--->'''Walt:''' What is ''wrong'' with you? Why are you ''blue''?

** ''Series/Scrabble'': In this game where contestants won cash prizes for completing fill-in-the-blank word puzzles, the classic FreudianSlip incident happened when a contestant drew two P's and slipped out "Chuck (Woolery), I guess I'll have to take a P." The audience immediately roared with laughter – since the meaning could be, "I guess I'll have to take a pee!" – as Chuck tried to compose himself in disbelief. The clip has frequently aired on Dick Clark's Bloopers specials.

* ''Series/NotTheNineOClockNews'' used this a few times, such as having a short segment in which a group of people are lining up outside a phone boot in order to use it as a urinal, or when a punk with a pair of {{Zipperiffic}} trousers struggles to figure out which one is used as the fly. One sketch was a literal example of toilet humour, with a customer in a hardware store designing a bathroom insisting on having as many toilets as possible installed in the room.

* During an episode of ''Series/{{Reba}}'', Van senses something smells odd while Reba and Lori Ann discuss the concept of SpeedDating and an upcoming event for it. One whiff at Elizabeth's direction is enough for him to decide that it's time to change her diaper.

* ''Series/{{Farscape}}'' takes toilet humour and runs with it, especially with regard to Rigel's digestive system which has at various points produced exploding poop, toxic farts, and incendiary urine. There's a reason for the show's FanNickname of "Fartscape".

** Poop was used a few times as well, most often with George. In the episode, "The Boyfriend Part 1", George was obviously going to poop in Jerry's bathroom at the end, as his pants are down around his ankles and he comes flying out of the bathroom carrying a newspaper. George is also shown to have a fascination with the word manure multiple times. One episode features George getting a handicap toilet and falling in love with sitting on it, saying he feels like a gargoyle sitting on the toilet.

* One unaired ''Series/MythBusters'' episode featured "Facts About Flatulence," where they tested myths about farting, such as [[FartsOnFire "is it possible to light a fart?"]] HilarityEnsues when they have to answer the age old question "do pretty girls fart?" and, [[ForScience in the name of science]], try to catch Kari letting one rip.

** "The Most Awful Family In Britain Competition" featured the father (played by Creator/TerryJones) eating a plate of beans while sitting on a toilet with his pants down, occasionally waving a newspaper behind him.
** A Creator/TerryGilliam animated link showed a woman excusing herself from a fashionable party. Making her way to a door, she goes inside and triggers some thirty seconds of loud fart noises and masculine grunting.

Added DiffLines:

** Adam once [[ItMakesSenseInContext rode down a zipline holding a sheet of plywood above his head]][[note]]to test a myth that a construction worker had been blown off a building but used the plywood as a makeshift hang-glider to avoid injury[[/note]] and when he passed near Jamie, raised his legs and yelled out "I fart on you!" [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail in a French accent]].
