Since the mid-to-late 1990s it's been almost mandatory that an animated show that stays on air long enough will have a Charlie and the Chocolate Factory parody episode. Such parodies usually explicitly mimic the 1971 adaptation Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, owing to its memorable and easily repurposed musical numbers and the idiosyncracies of Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka. Beyond out-and-out retellings of the storyline, spoofs of specific scenes and other shorter-form parodies are popular in all media. They usually include at least one, if not all, of the following plot points: There is a contest for a very limited number of people to win a tour of a major factory or prominent location that is shrouded in secrecy. The Plot Coupons that grant entry can only be found by purchasing a specific product that might have one of them tucked inside, leading to a public craze for said product. A character, often the lead but it could be a secondary one, finds the Plot Coupon — usually the last one. The factory is an enormous complex, and the tour guide is the head of the factory: a very eccentric, proper host, but with logic and mannerisms that confuse outsiders (basically, The Wonka, obviously). The staff of the factory are unnamed short, orange-skinned workers in lederhosen-esque outfits with rhyming names (ala the Oompa-Loompas) and a predilection to sing choruses. Colors and clothes may vary. The factory is more a surreal wonderland than an actual production facility, with nonsensical architecture, whimsical and fantastical products, and wildly varied atmospheres/set pieces. If any room from the Wonka factory is directly pastiched, it's usually the Chocolate Room. At least one musical number crops up, usually in the style of one of the songs from the 1971 movie (most commonly either "Pure Imagination" or the Oompa-Loompa song). A possibly surreal boat ride down a river is always taken (but Wonka's monologue in the darkness is usually omitted). Also happens in Fan Fic; some varieties of Transplanted Character Fic are this. |

The Simpsons has quite a few references and spoofs to its credit, and twice over it's confirmed that the book, at least, exists in-universe. In order of release: In an early comic, golden straws are hidden in bottles of cherry soda allowing a tour of the Krusty-brand novelty product assembly line. Ironically, Homer throws away a bottle containing a straw, where it's discovered by Barney. Homer still gets into the factory by pretending to be Barney's mother. And then Sideshow Bob turns up... In "Lisa's Rival", Uter's book report diorama is based on this book. Unfortunately, Principal Skinner didn't heed the boy's request to look at his first — by the time he gets there, Uter has already eaten the diorama (apparently it was actually made of chocolate) leaving only an empty box! "Trash of the Titans" has Homer lead the town in a musical number, "The Garbage Man", that's a Suspiciously Similar Song to "The Candy Man". The comics also featured a briefer but more direct parody of "The Candy Man" entitled "The Brandy Man", during an Imagine Spot after Homer temporarily takes over Moe's Tavern. In "Sweets and Sour Marge", Marge visits a company to complain about the amounts of sugar in their products. Homer asks if there were any Oompa-Loompas in there. She admits she saw one..."But he wasn't moving." Later on, Homer agrees to do something for the factory's owner. Part of the agreement includes getting to see an Oompa-Loompa, so Homer and the viewers actually see one this time. In "The Ziff Who Came to Dinner", Lisa says that Homer is a Daydream Believer with regards to the original novel. "He's still looking for that chocolate factory. It consumes him." In "Simple Simpson", the setup suggests a Whole-Plot Reference: Homer is looking for a Golden Ticket in packages of bacon to win a tour of a bacon factory. He begins his 'buying lots of bacon' bender and ends up getting a ticket in the third package. In a subversion, however, it's just a silver ticket, which entitles him to be a judge at a local fair, leading into the Pie Man superhero parody. Goose Gladwell is an obvious Expy of Willy Wonka (he's an ex-Green Beret who sells novelty items) in "Fat Man and Little Boy". Walter Hotenhoffer, from "The Scorpion's Tale", reveals that he is the former Augustus Gloop. He's now a slim grown man; his experience at the chocolate factory scarred him for life. |

Hailey's On It!: The episode “Who Let the Dogs Out? (Hailey)� involves Scott winning a tour of the Dingles factory, which makes his favorite chips. Hailey is eager to tag along to investigate an online rumor that the company tests its products on dogs. The face of the company and host of the tour, Chip Dingle, is a classic Wonka parody complete with top hat and flamboyant personality (bonus points: he’s voiced by "Weird Al" Yankovic himself) and the factory is full of whimsical touches like a potato tree and clouds that rain flavor dust, though a more conventional assembly line lies behind closed doors. Also behind closed doors, Hailey discovers the real secret of the factory; while there are dogs, they’re not being used as test subjects, but are the actual heads of the company. | |

Epic Movie (2007) was first to pastiche the 2005 movie specifically, and by using Fergie's "Fergalicious" in a Willy Wonka context ended up spoofing the music video for that song too. Such Narrow Parody is par for the course with Seltzer and Friedberg, of course. | |

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: What Came After has a non-canon chapter posted on April Fool's Day 2019. A Chapter that is Very Legitimate, a Compressed Adaptation of the 1971 film (it starts on the day of the tour, the Fizzy Lifting Drinks incident and the Slugworth subplot are omitted, and scenes are drastically shortened) featuring the cast of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers. Wigglytuff (named Wiggly Wonka) replaces Wonka, while Steenee, Alesia (a human-turned-Eevee and the main protagonist of the main story), Tyrunt, Riolu, and Popplio replace the five Golden Ticket (simply Gold Ticket in this version) winners (in order of elimination), the Guild members replace the Oompa-Loompas, the children's parents are omitted, and Chatot, while not replacing anybody, is thrown in to be the subject of Amusing Injuries. At the end, it is revealed to be a production filmed by the author's Author Avatar (a Totodile), and that the same applies to the main story. | |

Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil had one of these set in a dildo factory. With The Devil (voiced by H Jon Benjamin, no less) as Willy Wonka. And yes, the Devil sang songs about dildos while the lucky contest-winning girls toured his room where everything was made out of dildos. He even overreacted when a girl stole a motor for a vibrator. | |

Comic Relief has Billy Blonka, a candymaker who acts as a clear reference to the original and 2005 movies...in a self-styled parody of Breaking Bad, where he muscles in against competition, has his "Voompa-Boompas" punch out his enemies, and has stolen an invention Zero designed to create food to solve world hunger. The cast do visit the factory he runs, but with the intent to destroy it. | |

American Dad!: The climax of the episode "May the Best Stan Win" has Stan facing off with his future cyborg self in Hershey park, a candy-themed amusement park (based as much on the actual Hersheypark in Hershey, Pennsylvania as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory). In a "tunnel of love"-style boat ride down a chocolate river, an Augustus Gloop expy (even named Augustus!) is knocked into the tide by the two Stans' battle to his mother's horror. At the end of the episode, he's seen going up a pipe as she cries for help, but is ignored by a Motown-style girl trio in candy costumes singing about the crazy things that happen in the park — spoofing both the Oompa-Loompas and the Greek chorus of Little Shop of Horrors. Later seasons feature "Jeff and the Dank Ass Weed Factory", led by Snoop Do- I mean Tommy Tokes. The dwindling party was caused by guests being too stoned to live and the Oompa Loompa parodies were artificially converted from regular humans. Stan and Jeff manage to escape in a glass elevator but act too late to prevent it from crashing. |

The Play By Mail Games comic strip ads in Dragon once ran a story entitled "Gamer Kids And The PBM Factory" ("It's our cheesiest comic yet!"). A chessmaster, a videogamer, a D&D player and an MMO player (each representing a different aspect of gaming: strategy, action, rules, and social interaction respectively) are taken on a tour of PBM by a talking envelope in a purple top hat. Abandoned after two strips, supposedly because the claim that they sorted their letters via waterfall was untrue. | |

In Thor: Ragnarok, Thor's introduction to Sakaar is a direct parody of the 1971 film's boat ride as he is strapped to a chair and travels down a psychedelic tunnel of colorful lights and imagery informing him of his new role on Sakaar. On top of this, the actual main title music from the film is serving as the underscore. As it continues, the ride becomes more and more visually frantic — Thor even starts shrieking like Wonka does in response — until there's an abrupt Smash Cut and he finds himself in the Grandmaster's throne room. | |

One episode of Drake & Josh had one episode where the two titular characters bet that they can go longer without their particular pleasure than the other can. Drake's pleasure is junk food and after a certain point, Josh tries to tempt Drake into giving into his junk food addiction by turning their bedroom into a candy paradise complete with a chocolate milk swimming pool. Josh even wears a brown top hat similar to the one Gene Wilder wears in the 1971 version! | |

Get Ace: The episode "Billy Bonkers", with ice cream instead of candy. As a twist, the whole factory tour is really a trap intended for the main character. However, his golden tickets get taken from him several times so four other kids go on the tour like in the original story and Ace brings his grandfather along as a send-up to Grandpa Joe. Of course, all the child-disfiguring accidents are traps meant for Ace, but the other kids keep springing them because they're greedy. | |

Episode 185 of Gintama has Hijikata trying to get a golden ticket for a tour of a mayonnaise factory. He resorts to creating a new rule that every member of the Shinsengumi is required to use five bottles of mayonnaise in order to find one and does manage to do so, only to be horribly disappointed when the factory is completely ordinary, rather than mayonnaise-filled wonderland the TV commercial made it out to be. | |

The Office has Michael show up to work dressed up and acting as Willy Wonka to promote his Golden Ticket promotion, explaining that he hid five golden certificates in random paper boxes giving the holder 10% off their next order. The idea backfires when all five end up at the head office of Blue Cross Insurance, their largest client, and it turns out Michael forgot to write "limit 1 per customer" on the tickets. Oscar's quick calculation showing that Dunder-Mifflin stands to lose thousands of dollars, Michael swiftly sets up Dwight to take the fall. This backfires again when David Wallace shows up to congratulate Dwight over the idea after Blue Cross called Wallace to let him know they loved the idea so much that they are now transferring all their paper business to Dunder-Mifflin. | |

In one of the last episodes of 30 Rock, "A Goon's Deed in a Weary World", Jack decides to give the applicants for his old job a tour of NBC as a Secret Test of Character. When the candidates arrive, they're all adult lookalikes of the children from the 1971 version. If you look at their name tags, you can make out the names Charlie MacGuffin, Augustus Blorch, Veruca Saline, and Mike Webb (the Violet lookalike's name tag is never legible). The Charlie lookalike comes off as genuine, so Kenneth "disguises" himself as a CBS executive in order to give him the Slugworth test. Charlie passes and Kenneth happily endorses him. Then Charlie continues talking and reveals he's actually a ruthless businessman who only cares about money...The following exchange explains Jack's thinking behind the contest: | |

ASBusinessMagnet's Post-SCrash Session 3: Spectators of the Host features Violet Beauregarde as an adult and the CEO of "Beauregarde Chewing Gum Industry". She runs a Wonka-esque tour, no matter for the fact that she has already decided on a heir. Wonka himself hears of it, and invites the other original Golden Ticket winners as well. Calliope's Update Girl was originally conceived as a Charlie And The Chocolate Parody, but since has moved on from that. |

The CollegeHumor video "Charlie and the Apple Factory" features the kids being taken by Steve Jobs on a tour of Apple's factory after winning their Golden iTickets. They are taken first to the Apple Room, which is like the Chocolate Room, with Apple devices growing on the trees. Charlie is briefly taken by Bill Gates, who wants to know the secret to Apple's success. Ultimately, Jobs shows Charlie why Apple products are popular.....an empty room, because they pride themselves on showmanship. It ends with a Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory Oompa-Loompa song. | |

Zeke and Luther had an episode where Zeke's little sister found a golden golf ball. The donut shop's owner then made her his heiress and started teaching her the trade. However, it all ended when he learned she intended to tear it down in favor of a more profitable venture. In the end, she found another golf ball. Not wanting to invoke the Here We Go Again! trope, she gave the ball to a customer standing near her. | |

Subverted in Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie. While there is a golden ticket subplot for the Mr. Twisty's Twisted Cheese Curls Sweepstakes, we don't actually see the pirates finding the ticket or going on the tour of the factory, since the plot is more focused on how Larry thinks a bowl of cheese curls that were left out in the open were free samples and gets in trouble for it. | |

Saturday Night Live: A sketch with Al Gore as Willy's accountant brother, Glen. When the film had its first special edition DVD release in 2001, SNL had a mock trailer that had a hodgepodge of fake making-of material for it, such as "Christopher Walken's" audition reel for the lead role and the filming of the boat ride scene inspiring the question What Do You Mean, It's for Kids? In Season 37, the monologue in the Ben Stiller episode had him cavorting with "Jewish Willy Wonka" (Andy Samberg) in a Yom Kippur-themed musical number. (It's pointed out that technically, since he was Jewish, Gene Wilder beat them to this one.) In Season 42, guest host Kristen Stewart played a Charlie Bucket dismayed to learn that Grandpa Joe and the other grandparents, contrary to what he'd long believed, could get out of bed whenever they wanted to. In Season 44, guest host Claire Foy plays Charlie as he and the rest of the family tries to ignore exactly what Grandpa George and Grandma Georgina do in that bed all day. |

Episode 2 of the Black Dynamite series is based around the production of "Willy Wanker and the Chocolate Fucktory", the first interracial porn movie. The bit we get to see is an amazing X-rated pastiche of the chocolate room, some major characters, "Pure Imagination", and the graphical style of the Oompa-Loompa songs. | |

Robot Chicken's gone to this particular well many times. They've spoofed the Lickable Wallpaper scene and the "Oompa-Loompas as Wonka's slaves" conceit, and imagined such scenarios as the Oompa-Loompas' writers' room, what would have happened had Veruca Salt actually got an Oompa-Loompa, and Charlie Bucket taking the fall for what Mr. Wonka did to the other kids by the latter's design. | |

Children's animated series Frankenstein's Cat includes an episode entitled "Lucky Ticket" which plays directly upon this trope, right down to the costumes of Doctor Frankenstein and his cat Nine. In the episode Frankenstein decides to placate an angry mob by announcing that he will give whoever finds his five golden tickets a tour of his castle. Said castle is actually full of dangerous monsters, but (with the help of Nine and child protagonist Lottie) Frankenstein attempts to pass the castle off as an actual chocolate factory. | |

Runescape's 2016 Easter event; Sliske and The Chocolate Factory, complete with Golden Tickets (from chocolate butterflies), Everlasting Gobstoppers and even the fact that there are 5 golden tickets. the punishments being Wendy falling down a pit (Veruca Salt), Farquie gets caked with chocolate (Augustus Gloop), Gilly Willikers folds on himself into nothing from eating spatially-folded chocolate (Violet Beauregarde eating experimental gum, however shrinking may partially be based on Mike Teevee shrinking). Farmer Jimbo floats up to the top of the room from drinking Eaglade. best of all is the Oompa Loompas, here called the Bobble-numbskulls with a parody song. (they can't even allow the song to be permanently unlocked for free listening due to copyright issues.) | |

Johnny Bravo combines this with a parody of Soylent Green, of all things. Johnny had won a visit to a jerky plant, where his knowledge impressed the owner to the point of being made his heir. Unfortunately, Johnny had brought along Pops, who spied on Jerky Jake to find out the secret ingredient. Finding out Jerky Jake's jerky was healthy food made Johnny more shocked than thinking it was made of people. | |

The 2014 London edition of Forbidden Broadway spoofed the then-recent stage musical of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory with "No Imagination", a parody of the story's Bootstrapped Theme "Pure Imagination" (which was incorporated into the otherwise new song score of the musical). Gags included West End musical stalwart Elaine Paige turning up as an Oompa-Loompa, a malfunctioning Great Glass Elevator (referring to real life issues the show had with that particular effect), and the show being accused not only of being unoriginal but a Follow the Leader to Matilda, another musical adapted from a Roald Dahl novel (though well before Matilda opened, Charlie was in the works). | |

Family Guy: In one half of "Wasted Talent", Peter drinks even more Pawtucket Patriot beer than usual attempting to find a hidden silver scroll and win a tour of the brewery (many others die of alcohol poisoning trying to win the contest). On the big day, Joe is kicked out by the Chumba Wumbas before the tour begins since the brewery does not have wheelchair ramps; later Peter and Brian get kicked out when they steal beer designed not to go flat and wind up having to fart (rather than burp) to escape doom...though Peter requests one more Chumba Wumba song before he goes. Notably, this spoof has direct parodies of songs from the 1971 film, rather than suspiciously similar-sounding pastiches. As the Chumba Wumbas see Joe off: Peter lampshades this in a later episode (where a return to the factory shows that it's a standard factory) by saying how things had changed since Pawtucket Pat sold the factory. An episode predating "Wasted Talent" had a briefer and more blatant reference. Peter has a flashback to his trip to a chocolate factory, where he's accused of stealing candy — and though he denies it, it's clear from his big, round, blue appearance that he stole the same gum that changed Violet into a giant blueberry. Incidentally, it's a direct steal of an identical cutaway gag in an episode of The Critic. |

An episode predating "Wasted Talent" had a briefer and more blatant reference. Peter has a flashback to his trip to a chocolate factory, where he's accused of stealing candy — and though he denies it, it's clear from his big, round, blue appearance that he stole the same gum that changed Violet into a giant blueberry. Incidentally, it's a direct steal of an identical cutaway gag in an episode of The Critic. | |

The Spongebob Squarepants episode "Atlantis Squarepantis" has the same basic structure, except there isn't an elimination of the tourists - each one chooses to stay behind in a room due to their fascination with it. | |

Dexter's Laboratory: Five golden diskettes for a trip to visit the No Celebrities Were Harmed version of Stephen Hawking in a machine factory. All the other four kids are insufferable brainiacs like Dexter, but he's not the one who gets the golden diskette - Dee Dee is. Fortunately for him, each winner was allowed to take a guest with them. Easily the strangest parody piece yet. | |
