The opposite of the Long List. An Amusingly Short List is funny because it's barely a list at all. The main joke of the short list is often the fact that someone has gone to the effort of writing out the list or started listing things out loud, despite there being only one or two entries. Sometimes the humour comes from the fact that the character enthusiastically claims or implies there are many, many potential items that belong on the list... only to remember only very few. Or only one. Or none at all. May be combined with Damned by Faint Praise, if it's a list of someone's good qualities. Rule #1 can be related: It's common to list only one or two rules, so numbering the rules is unnecessary. What qualifies an Amusingly Short List as such and not just one or a few items that naturally form as part of dialogue is that it has to be presented as a list. The character should build up expectation of a list—by announcing they have a list, through Body Language such as counting on fingers, via a pause after an item, and so on—and then not deliver on that expectation because the list is unexpectedly, comically short. A form of Low Count Gag, where the low count is items in a list. |

In "Where the Wild Things Are" from The Inside Man, as Mark Shepherd accompanies Erica on a business trip as "IT security," he keeps up a stream of chatter about things she should do to protect herself until finally she stops him, telling him she only agreed to him coming along because she owed him a favor. "Here are the rules," she tells him, saying that he speaks when he's spoken to. She then pauses, then admits that this actually the only rule. | |

Calvin and Hobbes: The title characters have a game called "Calvinball" (which named a trope) that only has two permanent rules: you can't play the same way twice, and everyone has to wear a mask. In one Sunday strip with a G.R.O.S.S. (Get Rid Of Slimy GirlS) club meeting, Calvin and Hobbes decide to make a list of what girls are good for. Calvin snarks that it will definitely be a very short meeting. The two end up fighting when Hobbes adds that girls are good for "smooching". |

Red Dwarf, "Nanarchy": Dave Lister deals with a loss of his arm and Kryten and Kochanski try to comfort him, saying that there are countless people who have lost an arm, and then gone on to lead a perfectly normal life. Thousands. More than thousands. Millions. They have trouble naming them, but the gang collaboratively manage to find five. Five could be a decently long list, but considering the names... You be the judge of that: Lord Nelson, the Venus de Milo, the one-armed man from The Fugitive, Vincent van Gogh note according to Cat, that dude managed to cut off his own ear with just one arm and Dave Lister. | |

Phineas and Ferb: Dr. Doofenshmirtz has invented a Turn-Everything-Evil-Inator. We see the device fire all over the place in a series of failed attempts to hit Perry the Platypus. He eventually reasons he should just summon the things he has hit to be his minions, only to wind up with three items — a toothbrush, a bar of soap, and a sentient mass of grape and curry flavored gelatin. These also are regular starting points for Phineas and Ferb's wild ideas and inventions. "Gaming the System": Buford's video game, Jump n' Duck, only allows the player to, well, guess. Cue the immersive video game experience. "The Secret of Success": The boys see an ad on TV promoting an all-terrain vehicle that goes on ROAD AND MUD!!! They decide to build an ATV that actually can drive on literally all terrains. "Doof Side of the Moon": After watching a tourism ad for their city that lists "grass, milk, and smiles" as selling points, they and their friends set out to build the ultimate tourist attraction. In "The Chronicles of Meap", the space criminal who has abducted Phineas, Ferb, and Isabella tries and fails to be intimidating: Played for Drama in the 44-minute special "Summer Belongs to You", where the kids are stranded on a desert island. Phineas temporarily descends to madness trying to come up with a solution with their limited materials. |

The Amazing World of Gumball In the episode "The Parasite", Gumball and Darwin write a list of pros and cons to them snooping through Anais' diary. The pro side is only two items ("There might be something [they] need to know" and "[They] could eventually learn things about life") while the cons run off the paper and stretch across the town. Discussed in "The Routine", where Richard’s chores list has only one item. When Gumball asks about it, Nicole replies that Richard’s never completed more than one task. |

Saturday Night Live: There was a Running Gag on the Colin Jost/Michael Che era of Weekend Update where they present a list that's implied to be lengthy, only to have a small number of items on it. We then cut back to them to find them in the middle of something that should have been finished before the list was supposed to end. In the Mike Pence Impeachment Strategy cold open, Mike Pompeo says that fleeing the country is an option. There's a "whole list" of countries that would be happy to have them: "North Korea, Saudi Arabia, end of list". Liz Cheney (played by Kate McKinnon) expressed dismay at being hated by fellow Republicans, saying "I'm everything a Republican woman is supposed be: blonde, mean." A parody of Shark Tank had lawyers compete for celebrity clients. One prospective client prompted Alan Dershowitz to say "You're everything I want in a client. You're famous, you're definitely guilty, end of list." An awards show for black people set in the Star Wars universe had Saw Guerrera give a Shout-Out to all the black Jedi. |

Blackadder II: After Blackadder comments that being Lord Executioner is itself a death sentence, Melchett says he has a list of candidates. He announces "Candidates for the position of Lord High Executioner", unrolls a scroll, says "Lord Blackadder", and then rolls the scroll up again. Blackadder puts Percy in charge of the guest list for a party. When he checks in Percy tells him the first person on the list is his girlfriend Gwendoline. Blackadder shoots her down ("No chicks!") which forces Percy to sheepishly admit that he hadn't gotten around to listing anyone else. |

In Dark Reign: The List, Norman Osborn shows Nick Fury a list he keeps by his bedside, essentially the list of superheroes he's going to kill someday, including Fury. Fury in turn shows Osborn his own list, which consists of "Save the world", "Punch Norman in the face", and "Have a beer". | |

How I Met Your Mother: Barney Stinson bounces back and forth between Long Lists and short lists. If his list isn't hundreds of people long (they're usually people he's had sex with), then it's just one or two items long (usually a reason to have sex or not to have sex). In the episode "Brunch", Ted hasn't told his parents any stories about Barney, to the latter's dismay. Ted says, "Here's a list of all the things I talk with my dad about: Baseball..." and makes a "that's it" gesture. |

In the Chimney Chickens episode Date Envy, Blaze implies to Buzz that he already has some girls' phone numbers by saying "I'll just bust out the ol' Rolodex here and have a date in about thirty seconds." But the only three numbers in Blaze's contact list are for his mom, Buzz, and 911. | |

Friends: Pheobe says Ross is "on my list", before adding "Has anyone seen my list? It's a piece of paper and it says 'Ross'." Ross has Chandler type out a pro-con list to help him decide between Rachel and Julie. The only thing in Julie's con list is "She's not Rachel". Rachel is upset when she finds the list, and is not reassured when she finds the Julie's con list, as Chandler has typed it as "She's not Rachem". Rachel's resume is very brief when she quits her first job as a waitress. The guy who works a Soul-Crushing Desk Job and to whom Phoebe tries to sells toner over the phone has a hilarious and utterly sad short task list on his white board. It reads: Today's tasks: KILL SELF. No one in his office notices. |
