9	* ''Series/HeyHeyItsSaturday'' had a segment, "Red Faces", in which three (sometimes more acts) would likewise perform in front of three judges. As with ''The Gong Show'', one of the judges (most often in-show guitarist Red Symons) would strike a gong if the act was going downwards.

Cavey appears in the hat when Taffy expected a rabbit. Cavey immediately produces a rabbit from HairyHammerspace, but the girls are gonged anyway.
16	* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': According to Marge, one of Homer's [[RunningGag many "lifelong dreams"]] was to appear on the show, which he did with his best pal Barney in 1977. This goes into a flashback of the men playing "O Susannah" on a giant harmonica while sharing a pair of overalls, to many boos and gongs by Creator/JamieFarr, while Music/PaulWilliams looks on, bored. Homer then brags how they got more gongs than a breakdancing robot that caught on fire.
