He wants to be The Casanova, but he fails horribly. Maybe it's the polyester suit. Or the gold medallion around his neck. Or the phony "hey babe". Or the obvious hair plugs. Or the simple aura of sleaze. Or the mere fact that he's not as good-looking as he thinks he is. Whatever it is, though, the girls see it from a mile away and give him a wide berth. Sometimes the Casanova Wannabe talks a great game. He may have all his friends convinced that that he's the original ladies' man and that his bed is never cold. But the truth is, he still hasn't done it (or, if not, has only had bought-and-paid-for sex. Once. Which will be revealed in a pathetic and embarrassing tearful and/or drunken confession). Women can see the blinking neon "loser" sign bolted to his receding hairline a mile away. He clearly wants to prove his manhood via Sex as Rite-of-Passage but hasn't managed it yet. If he has a job, it's likely as a Lounge Lizard. In Real Life, the profane term "fuckboy" has become a current slang term for irritating young real-world Casanova Wannabe men, particularly those defined by a mix of boorish forwardness thinly disguised as flirtiness ("hehe and then what? ;)" and "wanna play the question game? ;)" being examples of their approach), mind games that are designed to allow him to put in the bare minimum of effort required to continue extracting sex from his target, and a massive sense of entitlement. Generally he's bound to succeed once or twice, by law of averages if nothing else. These relationships usually don't last long. Sometimes he will "succeed" by attracting or scoring with an Abhorrent Admirer by accident (don't expect him to learn the right lessons from the experience, though). Compare Nerds Are Virgins and Proud to Be a Geek. Contrast Kavorka Man (though, surprisingly, the two can overlap, as many Wannabes end up finding a fair bit of love anyway), Even the Guys Want Him. May overlap with The Schlub Pub Seduction Deduction, which occurs when a guy is so unattractive that if beautiful women are coming onto him, it's almost certainly for ulterior motives. See Abhorrent Admirer for when an extremely unattractive character (in personality or appearance) is abhorred by the target of their affections. See Handsome Lech, who is this same character with the plus of being attractive (but still with no luck, and even less of a clue). Also see Prince Charming Wannabe, for another character who sees himself as the man of someone's dreams, but ignores or is oblivious to the fact that she wants nothing to do with him. See also Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places — the two character types complement each other and sometimes overlap. See Lousy Lovers Are Losers for the character does have sex but is incredibly bad at it. |

Adventure Time: Lumpy Space Princess is a female example. She seems convinced that men find her irresistable and are always trying to "get on these lumps", but it's all in her head. Her attempts to seduce Finn and Jake in "Gotcha!" fall hilariously flat. And the one time a guy showed attraction to her, in "Bad Timing", Lumpy Space Princess ruined it with her own jealousy and bad temper (and also accidentally trapped him outside of space and time). | |

Viz (the comic book, not the Anime distributor) gives us Sid the Sexist, who, while not wearing a leisure suit, is very much a virgin despite his claims to the contrary and his attempts to change that situation. His friends could also possibly come under the same category - while they have occasionally been shown having success with women, usually they appear to look up to Sid for his 'studliness'. One strip even featured the brother of one of Sid's friends, who wore a leisure suit and claimed to be a massive hit with the ladies. Sid attempts to one-up him by getting several love bites - with the aid of a bicycle pump. He is, of course, caught and mocked by his friends. But then the last panel shows the friend's brother, alone in a tiny bedroom, doing the same trick, surrounded by porn magazines, used tissues, inflatable dolls, and other sexual paraphernalia, making him possibly the only character to have ever been made to look even more pathetic and lonely than Sid in the strip. | |

Tatewaki Kuno of Ranma ½ straddles the line between this and Handsome Lech. He's wealthy and decent looking, and implied to have some slight luck in impressing the ladies, but his ego far outweighs his actual attractiveness. His "romantic" gestures tend to be either offensively forward (most commonly latching onto women without their permission) or insultingly narcissistic, and neither of the two girls he is smitten with even like him, much less find him attractive. Such is Kuno's ego that he ignores their violent retributions and blatant disgust, instead insisting that they are kept from him by the manipulations of his perceived arch-rival, Ranma Saotome. There are even some dark implications that Kuno is a potential rapist, as in one story where he loses his memories, after he takes "the pigtailed girl" to an island alone with him, he starts lustfully chasing her around the island. | |

In My Hero (2000), Dr. Crispin gives the impression that he's had loads of women but admits in "A Day to Remember" that he's actually a virgin, and while he apparently lost his virginity later, considering that it was to a woman at least the age of Janet's mother who had false teeth while he was utterly drunk, it's questionable if he would be able to or want to remember it. | |

Yo soy Betty, la fea provides us with two: Nicolas Mora, nerd extraordinaire and self-assumed ugly, who nonetheless still tries to hit on pretty girls and constantly woo Patricia Fernandez; and Freddy, the motorized messenger of Ecomoda, who, while better-looking (and better-dressed) than Nicolas, still exudes a big "loser" aura. Freddy manages to have an on-off relationship with Aura Maria, the hot receptionist of the company, but he inadvertently and constantly ruins any progress he does with her thanks to his misguided flirting towards the models who flood the place. | |

Rock, a marriage candidate from Harvest Moon: Another Wonderful Life and its remake, Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life, fits to a T, to the point of even wearing a leisure suit and calling the main character "babe". He fails miserably at romance (though he fancies himself quite the catch, even introducing himself as a “stud�) due to his outdated clothes and his odd personality, with his first romantic event with the player starting off by showing the closest person he has to a love interest running away from him. His complete lack of charisma is lampshaded by his own mother, who seriously questions your mental health should you pursue him, but tries desperately to pair you up anyway, telling you this is likely to be his only shot at love. | |

Fire Emblem has quite a few: Sain from Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. His Establishing Character Moment has him trying to flirt with Lyn and getting turned down immediately. His support conversations are also all with women (except his friend Kent), who are often either oblivious to his advances, or getting turned off by them. Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade has the priest Saul, who despite his vows seems to love approaching any pretty woman he sees, causing his bodyguard Dorothy to scold him for it. Inigo and Virion from Fire Emblem: Awakening make an effort to go after every woman they can, despite the fact they're in a war. Inigo has his reasons, though, considering that the reason he's such a ladies man is that his dead future mother told him to talk to women to not be so shy and anxious all the time. Sylvain from Fire Emblem: Three Houses is notorious for being a skirt-chaser, although it turns out that he actually has contempt for the women who throw himself at him, believing that they simply want to use him to make a child who will inherit his crest (which has caused him no end of trouble in his life). That said, a female Byleth who's allied with the Black Eagles or Golden Deer can recruit him to her house without even needing the requisite combination of stats and skills. To take it even farther, his horndog behavior made him The Friend Nobody Likes to the point that he has the smallest A-support pool out of all the students with Byleth, Ingrid, Mercedes, and Dorothea being the only ones willing to be romantically involved with him. |

Love Actually: Colin Frissell (Kris Marshall). His friend Tony calls him "a lonely, ugly asshole" but Colin is convinced that he's a "god of sex", and the problem is that British women are too stuck-up — if he went to America, he'd have a girlfriend "instantly". Subverted when it turns out he's right, to an absurd degree. | |

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: Zig-Zagged with Dennis Reynolds. Sometimes he's good with the ladies, other times he's this trope. Both reactions are justified because he has been able to function socially more than the rest of the gang which isn't saying much. However, he also has been shown to be the most depraved member of the gang and has little understanding of human relationships. He also gets Mistaken for Gay when he hits on a married woman by gossiping about her husband and wearing make-up and a girdle. On a dating website, he gets 0 Stars. It says something when his two friends Mac and Charlie, a fake macho Armored Closet Gay and an illiterate idiot with No Indoor Voice who kills rats for a living, get higher ratings than him. | |

It is implied that Homer Simpson from The Simpsons was like this before he met Marge, as evidenced by the time Lisa wanted advice on how to tell a guy (in this case, Ralph Wiggum) you aren't interested: Moe often attempts to woo not only Marge but every woman he sees (even Patty Bouvier, of all people) with little success. |

Tom Haverford from Parks and Recreation is a special case. In the first season, he tells the documentary crew that he and his wife have an open marriage and that they're both disappointed he's not a more successful adulterer. His utter failures to pick up women are often shown. In the second season, Ron learns that Tom's wife is Canadian, and only married him to stay in the country. His buddy Jean-Ralphio qualifies as well. |

In Miraculous Ladybug, this is how Cat Noir tries to woo Ladybug. The irony is that as secret identity Adrien Agreste, he's legitimately popular with girls thanks to his modeling career and genuinely sweet personality, but due to his incredibly isolated upbringing, he thinks that over-the-top gestures and pet-names, like the kind from movies, are the best way to get a girlfriend. | |

Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force. His schemes range from desperate to disturbed. Shake is quite similar, to the extent that he vastly overestimates his own sex appeal. Oddly enough, Frylock has accidentally given himself away, a few times, as depressingly incompetent with women even when Shake and Meatwad aren't around to kill the moment. |

RWBY: Neptune has worked very hard to build a "cool dude" persona that includes hitting on every pretty girl he meets. Yang doesn't seem to notice his appreciation of her, Melanie and Miltia dismiss his approach entirely, but Weiss is impressed by him, much to Jaune's disbelief, as Neptune's moves on Weiss were actually the same as Jaune's. Neptune eventually admits to Jaune that he's hiding a completely dorky interior which puts him off pursuing Weiss more seriously. Jaune sets him straight, giving up his own attempt to woo Weiss in the process. | |

Baldur's Gate II: An elf called Salvanas, who can be found in a bar, is a minor character whose only function is to hit on every female party member that talks to him (except Imoen, who was added at the last moment). Salvanas flirts so blatantly shamelessly that he's inevitably angrily rejected. The only one interested is a temporary female Edwina—but after Salvanas's verbal slip she gets angry and kills the poor elf. If a female player character chooses not to reject him, Salvanas gets scared and runs away. A wizard Edwin hits on some female party members (including Mazzy the halfling!) and likes to talk about many concubines he left gasping after his erotic onslaught. In truth... well, it appears that in Athkatla he's had a fling with a barmaid, who finds him very cute. |

The Todd from Scrubs may be the ultimate Casanova Wannabe, especially after he comes to terms with his bisexuality. And possible anything-sexuality: Todd regularly boasts a great track record and hits on or makes innuendo at anything that moves. When pressed by The Janitor with "God is watching. How many times have you had sex in the last year?", he confesses none. Many women at Sacred Heart claim to have never slept with the Todd despite reputation, but they have proven to be extremely defensive about the idea to the point of suspicion. |

Of course, the eponymous Leisure Suit Larry, the former Trope Namer. He is basically a 40-year-old virgin in the first game, loses his virginity, but doesn't get a steady girlfriend. The general formula is Leisuresuit Larry manages to get the girl after going through many absurd hurdles at a game's end, only for the next game to begin with Larry getting dumped. For example, even after winning a contest to spend a week with the attractive woman captain at the end of one game, Larry has to bribe her with a large stock in oil hauling. | |

Like Quagmire above, Boomhauer from King of the Hill is a partial example: he manages to have sex with lots of women, but one episode reveals that his method is to just hit on every woman he can find, usually with lame pickup lines, until he finds one that will give him the time of day. Bobby points this out to him, but Boomhauer's basic philosophy apparently is that one shouldn't let rejection get you down, though one episode had Boomhauer fall in love with a woman who only saw Boomhauer as a one-night stand and rejected his offer to marry her; man, he was dang ol' devastated, tell you what. | |

Bud Bundy from Married... with Children. This is debatable, however. As Ted McGinley points out in the Reunion Special: "Bud was pretty successful because he had the greatest-looking girls, week to week." This just isn't acknowledged in the series because of its Negative Continuity. It's just his success rate that's low, which isn't surprising considering he tries to get some in every episode. In an episode where Al and Peggy split up, Al and his buddies tried to hit the club scene. Al got a makeover and became the definition of Casanova Wannabe. He also got a prosthetic ass. However, when he gets the opportunity he always turns it down including a "shoe groupie". |

Total Drama: Cody thinks he's a ladies man, mostly because his friends from outside the show are even geekier than he is. To a lesser extent, Harold. He does win over Leshawna, but insisting Heather has a thing for him is too much. Beth is a female example. As plain looking as she is, she claims to be irresistible to boys, hitting on Cody, Justin, and Harold over the course of two seasons and getting nowhere. Though she did win over a handsome guy named Brady, offscreen. |

(Said women have become somewhat of a staple of the series) After he got into a steady relationship, this role went to Ivar and Hugo, a pair of bottle cap collectors who never get out of their bus driver uniforms.

Homestuck: Eridan Ampora is practically the classic example. Being from a naturally bisexual species, his options are a bit more widely ranging than most. Doesn't do him any good, though - not only is he rejected every time he tries but by the time he dies, he doesn't have any romantic relationships at all. Even his moirail has dumped him, fed up with his narcissism and his constant threats of genocide. His dancestor Cronus is even sleazier and creepier, with No Sense of Personal Space. Cronus's example is made especially sad when he actually hits on Eridan. Even Eridan is able to immediately pin him as trash but ultimately accepts his advances out of very blatantly stated desperation. Both are so pathetic they can't even form a blackrom with anyone. Everyone hates them, but in the "stay away from you creepy loser" way and not the "I love to hate you" way. |

Frank Barnes from Faust: The Seven Games of the Soul idolized the real Casanova, and his frustration at not being able to succeed at wooing women led him to make his deal with Mephistopheles. A letter from a woman responding to Frank can be found where she points out that the real Casanova was an adventurer, soldier, and diplomat, which made him an interesting person to be around, while Frank put his artistic talent off to the side in favor of focusing on pursuing women. | |

White Dark Life: Collin is an exaggeration of this. He believes he is attractive but his giant ego and weak physical stature quickly turn off any woman he has an interest in. And then it turns out his soul holds traces of pure chastity to boot, which guarantees this status. Later, Kris takes this role from Collin once the latter cleans up his act. Only natural considering he's an incubus with pride as his main trait. |

That being said, he does manage to score a victory every now and then when Space Dandy's heart is in the right place. Meow would be one too if he hadn't already given up, content with taking voyeuristic photographs and browsing porn online. | |

Nathan from Misfits tries to chat up virtually every girl he meets, with very limited success. And when it does work, something usually goes spectacularly, mind-bogglingly wrong—e.g. one of his love interests is revealed to be an 82-year-old in disguise, mid-coitus. But most girls just seem disgusted with him on sight and immediately ignore or reject him. That said, he's undoubtedly only a Casanova Wannabe in-universe—among the fans he's easily the most popular and lusted-after character on the show, despite his obnoxious personality. | |

Shimada from My Monster Secret not only fails to seduce any lady, he also has rotten luck that borders on karmic with the ones he hits on. Ryou, his "girlfriend", is notably... a guy in a female Mobile-Suit Human, who is also a Casanova Wannabe. Later on, he tries to hit on his young and beautiful new teacher Ryokuenzaka Yumi; who turns out to be a giant male vampire in a female disguise. He's also a fan of Shiho, who switches genders when she sees the moon. Shima doesn't suspect any of that. | |

The LDD-fanfic, Bridge to Terabithia 2: The Last Time (taking place six years after the original story, where Jess and Leslie are teenagers at this point) has an appearance from Jess' obnoxious cousin, Nicholas, who shows up during the Thanksgiving chapter. His first line have him bragging to Jess about his (unseen, most likely non-existent) girlfriend, and when Leslie shows up at Jess' place as a guest, Nicholas then brags about how he'll "make Leslie fawn over him by the end of the day". Needless to say, Jess is not amused. | |

Finral from Black Clover. It's stated in his introduction that his liking for women interferes with his work. However, he hasn't found a girlfriend yet. When Finral goes on a triple date, with Asta and Luck tagging along, he soon realizes how big of a mistake it was to bring them. This behavior came about from realizing that his brother would become the head of his family and be forced to marry Finnes instead of being married to her himself despite their mutual attraction. Thanks to a major tongue lashing from his brother, he tries to stop his habitual advances on women to become worthy of being Finnes's fiancé again, turning him into a Nervous Wreck around attractive women when trying not to cheat on her anymore. | |

Dragon Age: Origins: Oghren imagines himself as being quite the ladies' man, though most of the females he hits on find him utterly repulsive. He was married, though his first wife left him and then fell in love with another woman. He then started up a relationship with Felsi, who was quite a looker ... which he ruins by impulsively joining the Gray Wardens after she gets pregnant. In truth, there is some hint that Oghren's lecherous behaviour is a cover for his crippling insecurities. If his personal quest is completed in Awakening and he has a high approval at the end of the game, the Gray Warden helps him break out of this behavior and be more responsible toward Felsi and their child. | |

Jon Lajoie: It's unclear how successful MC Vagina is at winning over women, but his awful singing, blatant sexism, and laughably bad pickup lines (he considers a song for the ladies to be one entitled "Show Me Your Genitals") would probably doom him in any sane world. Notably, despite his claims of having wooed women around the world with his twenty-five-inch penis, the only time he's ever seen onscreen with women is in "Very Super Famous," and they were decidedly not head-over-heels. From "WTF Collective," the rather aptly named "MC Cockblocks Himself": |

Girls Bravo: Fukuyama plays the trope straight and subverts it at the same time: Kirie and Koyomi, especially, want nothing to do with him because of how lewdly and shamelessly he comes onto them. And has a habit of barging into Kirie's class to flip up her skirt and grope her, right before she flattens him for it. On the other hand, the women of Seiren love him for it. They're just as horny as he is and gladly strip themselves naked so he can fondle them to his heart's content (and theirs). |

Super Robot Wars Advance: Axel Almer, when picked as the protagonist, is portrayed this way, flirting with every girl he sees and failing horribly every time. For example, when he is asked for his name by Sayaka Yumi, he tells her: "Maybe I'll remember my name if a beautiful girl like you kisses me". This scene is replicated in a 4koma (when Axel and Sayaka are in their respective mechs) where Axel's mech is immediately blasted with a Rocket Punch out of nowhere. |

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy: Ron Burgundy. Though he does wind up getting the girl, then losing her, then getting her again. But the news team's attempts to woo Veronica fit pretty much exactly into this Trope, complete with leisure suits. Most of the characters Will Ferrell's played recently tend to be this. Oddly enough, this is a bit of a Zig-Zagging Trope for this movie. Only with Veronica is he a wannabe — with other women, he's aloof enough and famous enough that even his lamest lines work. | |

Jay from the British cult sitcom The Inbetweeners, who makes near-constant boasts about his sexual expertise despite his obvious virginity. Jay is a bit of a vague case, though, as he rarely ever talks to girls. He apparently prefers to brag to his male friends about his exploits instead. But when he does try to chat up girls, they don't usually seem interested (except for Chloe). Will alternates between this and Kavorka Man. He does score with Charlotte—the school's most popular girl—and his hot, former babysitter, but he screws up before any of them manages to take his virginity. And when he tries to pull a nice and down-to-earth girl, Lauren, he fails spectacularly, especially by trying to imitate Yoda. He doesn't have much luck with Rachel either as he, according to the guy Rachel flirts with instead, "talks like they do in old movies". |

The Flash: Though not his defining trait, Wally West was known to be a skirt-chaser when he first took over the role after his uncle's passing. In general, Wally was a manchild and this was part of it; he hit on every woman he could and while an attractive guy who was quite fun to hang out with (and thanks to being a Magnetic Hero, he often succeeded in being Amicable Exes after the break-up), his immaturity was a constant turn-off. A big contributing factor to his Character Development was him meeting Linda Park, who after initially disliking one another became Fire-Forged Friends and he developed a Single-Target Sexuality pretty much as soon as they started dating. | |

Julian Bashir of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. He has had notable success, perhaps too much to be considered the Casanova Wannabe; besides the Daxii, there's a long-but-not-deep relationship with Leeta, and briefer affairs with the mute genius girl and that weightless chick. Dr. Zimmerman, inventor of the Holodoc, certainly qualifies in his appearance on Deep Space Nine. |

His support conversations are also all with women (except his friend Kent), who are often either oblivious to his advances, or getting turned off by them. | |

Agarest Senki gives us Winfield and Thoma. Winfield is a textbook case of this trope. Thoma however actually has a crapton of game and earns the ladies company. Too bad Winfield taught him how to treat a woman which leads to Thoma starting off strong then halfway becoming like Winfield. To put this into perspective Thoma said the wrong thing TWICE to a Tsundere. In the same sentence. While she told him to buzz off. He still convinced her to hang out with him yet Winfield's brainwashing led to another sexual comment. He manages to leave unscathed due to turning her anger into exasperation. Thoma got game, but his teacher just programmed him not to use it consistently. |

Larry Dallas of Three's Company is named Larry and may even be the inspiration for the computer game, but had too much (read: more than one) actual success with the ladies to really exemplify the trope. Mr. Furley probably qualifies though. | |

Whenever Winston Rothchild plays the Possum Lodge Word Game on The Red Green Show, Red gets the correct answer out of him by mentioning one of his past dates. Winston's words, for the record, are usually along the lines of "disaster" (in fact, that was one of his words). | |

Ringabel in Bravely Default hits on every woman he encounters and manages to annoy everyone around him in the process, including most of the women he tries to flirt with. The other members of the party put up with him because he's the only one who can pilot their airship. Played with in that only major female characters, the ones with names, react to him this way, and he has absolutely ridiculous amounts of success with minor female characters. He was extremely successful manipulating the hair dye saleswoman for information before Edea ruined it, and he's implied to have dated at least a dozen women offscreen, sometimes multiple at the same time. | |

As Locke and Sabin (his own twin brother!) note, Edgar of Final Fantasy VI is remarkably bad at flirting with women, no matter how often he does it. Given that he's a genius inventor who's also a beloved monarch and who insists on equal treatment between him and the rest of his subjects (not to mention being fairly physically fit and capable in a scrap), it leads one to wonder just how bad his flirting has to be that he's consistently striking out with the ladies. | |

Tucker from Red vs. Blue is a shining example of this trope. Unfortunately, the only women he sees on a regular basis are ruthless super soldiers who would kill you as soon as look at you. In fact, the only action he gets during the story is with Grif's promiscuous sister (or so he claims) and a Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong. (The latter, note, was only implied in hindsight by later events; at the time, everyone just thought Tucker was being beaten up.) | |

Final Fantasy Brave Exvius has Jake, the sixth party member to join in the plot, who hits on nearly every female he encounters. The barely legal engineer recruited by the party before him? Hits on her. The Really 700 Years Old archmage who appears to be a nine-year-old girl? Hits on her. The intelligent beastwoman who looks like a purple leopard (and is quadrupedal)? Hits on her. Discovers the millennia-old Leviathan that's hundreds of feet long is female? Hits on her. While he does eventually get his attention violently reciprocated by said engineer, he spends the greater part of two seasons striking out repeatedly. Ironically, the best chemistry he has (to the point of being a Fan-Preferred Couple in some cases) is with Nichol, the male tactician in the party. | |

One Piece: Sanji never has gotten and most likely never will get lucky with any of the girls he's wooed so far in the story. Considering Word of God definitively states No Hugging, No Kissing for the main crew, of which Sanji is a part, of course he will always fail when it comes to the ladies. Early on in his characterization, he actually was capable of attracting women; that's just deteriorated over time. In this case, Failure Is the Only Option. The Totto Land arc gives him an actual Love Interest except that she's actually planning to murder him, and even though she eventually falls in love with him for real, she has to be left behind at the end of the arc. | |

Hetalia: Axis Powers: France is somewhere between this and the The Casanova. None of the other nations are interested in his advances, but he apparently has had lovers, and he does manage to successfully molest (or at least strip) several of the other nations. Could also apply to Italy, as he's frequently seen flirting with women, yet still hasn't done it. (Or could be a Chivalrous Pervert). |

Exterminatus Now: Eastwood, who regularly suffers great physical harm from hilariously crude attempts at hitting on anything with a skirt. Probably the reason why he has the biggest Porn Stash in the world. On such a scale that he's begun to acclimatize to pepper spray. Naturally, the one and only time a female shows attraction to him he has no idea what to do next. |

Tales of Arise: The main reason Law repeatedly strikes out with the ladies is because they can tell he's a skirt chaser. Law will hit on virtually any girl within eyesight at the drop of a dime and even gets caught ogling Kisara twice. Which is also the reason he ultimately fails to get any closer to Rinwell, the one girl he has genuine feelings for. | |

The two guys that Chris Kattan and Will Ferrell played in the Butabi Brothers sketches on Saturday Night Live, named Doug and Steve respectively in the movie adaptation, A Night at the Roxbury. Other examples of a Casanova Wannabe on Saturday Night Live include: Christopher Walken's "The Continental", a parody of a 1950s-era New York local TV show. Chris Parnell's "Merv the Perv" (who also had a brother played by Johnny Knoxville named "Irv the Perv") The Woman Watchers (played by frequent host Tom Hanks and cast member Jon Lovitz, from the mid-1980s SNL) The original "Two Wild And Crazy Guys!" (also played by a cast member and a frequent SNL host, only this time, it's Dan Aykroyd [the cast member] and Steve Martin [the frequent host]), compounded by them being Funny Foreigners with a middling grasp on the English language. |

Greg, one of the colonists in Space Colony. With the voice of a late-night radio personality and pick-up lines out of a Saturday Night Live sketch, Rick is an utter failure when it comes to women, even when compared to Mad Scientist Nicolai and Disco Dan Charles. He's a flagrant misogynist and is regarded with unmasked contempt by main character Venus; Even his official company profile paints him in an unflattering light. He's also one of the least useful colonists, having high standards for happiness and few strong skills. Greg, as it happens, appears to be based on a similar character from MADTV. | |

Danny Phantom gives us Tucker Foley. Tucker has tried to get a girlfriend several times over the course of the series with mixed results. Tucker was able to get a pity date with Valerie (pre-character development) in the same episode as the scene above, but it got cancelled when Danny decided to overshadow Tucker and have him go to the dance with Sam so that she would have a date after she indirectly displayed her desire to go to the school dance. |

Scout in the Team Fortress 2 official comics has a habit of Flexing Those Non-Biceps and flirting whenever a woman comes near, with zero success. Interestingly, the one time he does get a chance to have sex (with a woman who hasn't seen a man beside her brother for twenty years), he backs out because he thinks the most common target of his flirtations, Miss Pauling, will like him better if he waits. In Scout's own words, he's good at getting girls. What he's not good at is getting ladies. What's the difference? Well, this is what it looks like when Scout successfully picks up a girl: |

Voyages of the Wild Sea Horse has "The Reefster", a barracuda fishman and member of the White Foam Pirates, a minor band of surfing-obsessed pirates who make small appearances during the Paradise portion of the story. He clearly thinks of himself as a great lady's man (and also a man's man — he's not picky) but his pick-up tactics come off as sleazy and his personality comes off as arrogant, entitled and self-absorbed. In one chapter, he hits on Harumi, then hits on Harumi's tiger-shark wotan girlfriend Miriam right in front of Harumi, suggests they have a threesome after they tell him they're together, and finally gets mad and calls Miriam a Category Traitor for turning him down when she refuses. At which point she smacks him across the room with her tail. The Reefster's own captain calls him an idiot and a pervert. | |

The Bolt Chronicles: Despite Blaze's breadth of carnal experience, he is seemingly not very popular with the opposite sex. In "The Seven," Bolt's mother has sex with him despite telling him he's "not her type," mistakenly thinking he's a stud male brought to the puppy mill for mating purposes. The three female dogs he first encounters there find him attractive initially, but express frustration when he can't free them from their cages and tease him about his small size. As the story puts it in general: In "The Cameo," his girlfriend Tracey says she's attracted to him, but doesn't like him very much and speaks disparagingly of him. Not without reason. |

Walkyverse: Robin DeSanto is a female version (just for being so much of a No Social Skills Genki Girl), especially with the recent Reveal that she's a virgin. She is pretty attractive, though. Smug Snake Faz owns this trope; he's both certain he's a lot more attractive and desirable than he in fact is (the permanent expression of self-satisfied smugness doesn't help) and is absolutely convinced that one day he and Amber will enjoin together in passion. He isn't going to let the fact that Amber openly and loudly detests him and everything about him dissuade him. |

In Scavenger Alliance, Luther assumes Blaze will accept his offer of marriage, despite making it clear that he's only interested in marrying her because he assumes that marrying Donnell's daughter will get him the position as Deputy. He treats the marriage as a done deal, based on a crush Blaze had on him a couple of years earlier. He finally backs off when Blaze threatens to paint her refusal on the wall of Reception in large letters for the whole Alliance to see. | |

Sylvain from Fire Emblem: Three Houses is notorious for being a skirt-chaser, although it turns out that he actually has contempt for the women who throw himself at him, believing that they simply want to use him to make a child who will inherit his crest (which has caused him no end of trouble in his life). That said, a female Byleth who's allied with the Black Eagles or Golden Deer can recruit him to her house without even needing the requisite combination of stats and skills. To take it even farther, his horndog behavior made him The Friend Nobody Likes to the point that he has the smallest A-support pool out of all the students with Byleth, Ingrid, Mercedes, and Dorothea being the only ones willing to be romantically involved with him. | |

Takamura Mamoru from Hajime no Ippo. The most infamous incident being him getting rejected in front of a Love Hotel. To make matters worse, a Paparazzi just happened to be there with a camera ready. Cue Amusing Injuries from Team Dad Kamogawa and horrified reactions from other boxers. | |

ContraPoints examines the "pick up artist" type in one of her videos. It's pretty depressing, since the modern version doesn't seem to be about enjoying sex or liking women, but trying to prove something by entering a "conquest" into a spreadsheet. | |

Despite his claims of prowess with the "lady-types", Strong Bad from Homestar Runner is definitely a Casanova Wannabe. In one e-mail, he slips and admits "I don't really know anything about the ladies either... I mean I do! I mean... WHGT! JGTH! YES I'M AWESOME!" | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Subverted with Larry (hmm, Shout-Out?), who displays this behavior for a while, only to have it revealed in "Phases" that it's all an act, and he's actually gay. After he comes out to Xander (in private) he drops the act, though he is never seen to come out publicly on-screen. Buffy also toys with the idea in "Teacher's Pet"; one of the victims is very embarrassed when told that the mantis only attacks virgins. |

Rooster Teeth Animated Adventures portrays Chris Demarais as one, albeit as a more awkward one. While he has had successful dates, they don't seem to stick and he tends to find himself in more comically awkward dating mishaps. "Chris's Great European Adventure" was his story of attending a raunchy German club and meeting a girl who playfully asked him to choke her as they were making out. "Chris Strikes Out" was the story of Geoff and Michael witnessing Chris utterly fail to chat up a group of girls at a bar. |

Jenos Hazard of Black Cat. Most of his appearances show him striking out while hitting on women, and his official character profile even remarks about how his success rate with picking up women is way lower than you'd assume of someone with his assets (which include good looks, a snazzy suit, and a prominent position in one of the most powerful organizations in the world). | |

Inigo and Virion from Fire Emblem: Awakening make an effort to go after every woman they can, despite the fact they're in a war. Inigo has his reasons, though, considering that the reason he's such a ladies man is that his dead future mother told him to talk to women to not be so shy and anxious all the time. | |

Family Guy: Quagmire manages a good deal of success, but he's also failed enough times to not only develop an immunity to mace but also to be able to tell different types of mace apart. Brian is also this, usually with more failures. Not only does he act like a tool just to impress women, but he's also known to date really stupid women so he can feel smarter than them and have an easier time getting in their pants, along with hitting on Lois several times. He has been called out on this as well. |

To put this into perspective Thoma said the wrong thing TWICE to a Tsundere. In the same sentence. While she told him to buzz off. He still convinced her to hang out with him yet Winfield's brainwashing led to another sexual comment. He manages to leave unscathed due to turning her anger into exasperation. Thoma got game, but his teacher just programmed him not to use it consistently. | |

Paramedic John Gage on Emergency! definitely qualifies. He considers himself a ladies' man, but the ladies usually think the exact opposite, and any time Gage tries to give advice on women to his partner DeSoto, the advice turns out to be the exact wrong thing to do. Rarely do we see him actually have a successful date, which is pretty hilarious considering he's a rather attractive young man. He often gets teased for it by Fireman Chet Kelly, although Kelly doesn't seem to do any better with women. | |

On How I Met Your Mother Barney flips back and forth between this and The Casanova, with a bit of Handsome Lech thrown in. On the one hand, he is quite handsome, dresses in legitimately stylish suits and the notches on his bedpost are well into the triple digits. However, a lot of his pickup attempts can be pretty darn cheesy, it's clear that he's not always truthful about his sexual conquests, and, since the entire series is a story told by a potentially Unreliable Narrator, separating the lies from the truth isn't so easy. At one point, Marshall actually calculates that, given the number of women Barney's slept with, compared to the sheer number of women he hits on, his success rate is actually only a little over 1%, despite having slept with more people than the rest of the main characters combined. |

Carlos Olivera from Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, famous for the memorably cheesy line "All the foxy ladies love my accent. It drives 'em craaaazy!" Jill, however, is already quite smitten with her task of avoiding a gruesome, horrible death, so depending on where she meets Carlos, she'll either shoot down his flirting or simply ignore it. The remake largely does away with this; he flirts a little with a still mostly non-receptive Jill early on, but he keeps it professional once it's become clear that she has more important things to worry about. Ironically enough, in the remake Jill over time does reciprocate his attraction to the extent she dreams about Carlos (a nightmare of being forced to kill him as he zombiefies). | |

Friends: Played with with Chandler. He teases Ross who is desperate to get married again, envies Joey for being The Casanova, tries for a few one-night stands himself, and has Commitment Issues. However, even early episodes have him ending no-strings-attached sex because he wants a relationship, and trying to keep a steady girlfriend. Most of his Commitment Issues stem from a fear of being hurt, rather than wanting to play the board, and he's ten times happier after falling in love with Monica and being the first of the guys to get married (permanently, anyway). | |

Odd from Code Lyoko. He claims to be a ladies man, but while he has dated most girls in his age group at Kadic, they all say otherwise. (In fact, the only girls that he can truly call friends are Yumi and Aelita, and neither is a girlfriend in any true sense.) Part of his problem might be the whole "dated two girls at once" thing that Yumi unfortunately took the fall for (due to being in his body at the time). | |
