== [[Live-Action TV]] ==
* Mr. Roper on ''[[ThreesThree's Company]]'' was a Cranky Neighbor. He was replaced with Mr. Furley who was a [[Nosy Neighbor]].
* Mr. Heckles from ''[[Friends]]''.
* Fred Mertz from ''[[I Love Lucy]]''
* Mr Wilson on ''[[Dennis the Menace (TV series)|Dennis the Menace]]''
 
 
== [[Music]] ==
* One of [[Voltaire (Musicband)|Voltaire]]'s funnier songs, "When You're Dead," has the narrator dealing with an old curmudgeon who doesn't like his new hat, which is exactly like the one the other guy has.
** And "The Man Upstairs" (which is NOT a [[Religion Rant Song]]) has Voltaire himself as one of these in an apartment complex -- and given who he has to deal with, one can hardly blame him.

== [[Western Animation]] ==
* Squidward on ''[[SpongebobSpongeBob SquarePants]]'' is the quintessential cranky neighbor.
* Spiderus on the children's show ''[[Miss SpidersSpider's Sunny Patch Friends]]''. A particularly cranky neighbor, he will often threaten to ''eat'' the children who annoy him.
** Somewhat, but Spiderus also seems to fall into the role of [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]. He was the Scrooge in the program's [[Yet Another Christmas Carol]] and ended up being quite a good buggysitter to the Spider children in one of the program's stories. He also lost a large amount of his crankiness when he became a father.
* [[Donald Duck]] also sometimes has troubles with a [[Cranky Neighbor]], Jones, though Donald can be just as cranky as him.
* Ed Bighead on ''[[Rocko's Modern Life]]'' was a cranky [[Funny Animal|toad]] neighbor. Just like Mr. Wilson's, his wife Bev [[Women Are Wiser|wasn't so bad]].
