Line 152:
* ''[[The Lucy Show]]'' had a similar episode where Lucy recruits what she thinks is an Ethel Merman look-alike to sing in a Boy Scout fund-raiser, in an effort to live up to her inflated promise about getting the famed stat to participate. Needless to say, the real Ms. Merman decides to go along with the charade, considering it's for a worthy cause, and allows Lucy to "teach her to sing like Ethel Merman."
** In an episode of ''[[The Lucy Show]],'' Lucy convinces some neighbors to install a shower for her. Instead, they hire a professional plumber, introducing him as a handy friend. Lucy spends most of her conversation with the plumber commenting on professional plumbers, and how he looks nothing like a professional plumber, even when he says it point blank.
* ''[[The Suite Life of Zack and Cody]]: In the episode "The Ghost of Suite 613," Cody pranks his brother Zack by pretending that a tenant who died in Suite 613 was haunting him. However, when re-entering the room, both Cody and Zack see that one of the ghosts which haunted Zack was real.▼
* On ''[[Muppets Tonight]]'' [http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/muppet/images/8/8a/Little_richard.jpg Beaker does an uncanny Little Richard impression], actually a cameo of Little Richard himself, on which the shows host, Clifford, comments "Worst Little Richard impersonation ever!"
* In Laura Kightlinger's episode of ''[[Pulp Comics]]'', a Comedy Central show that interspersed stand-up with illustrative short film pieces, Laura expressed that she'd like to be so famous, that drag queens would dress up as her when she was dead. In the subsequent scene, two obvious Laura impersonators dress her down for her bad costuming, bad wig—and poor tucking job.

* In the ''[[Supernatural (TV series)|Supernatural]]'' episode "Hollywood Babylon", the [[Meddling Executive]] character assumes that the [[Deliberately Monochrome]] ghost he runs into on-set is an extra in body paint, and calls makeup because he thinks the noose marks on her neck would look better on camera if they were red.
* Inverted in ''[[Charlie's Angels]]'': Sammy Davis Jr. plays a liquor-store owner who wins a Sammy Davis Jr. look-alike contest. He accepts the award—from Davis himself, via split-screen—but insists that he doesn't 'really' look like Davis.
