If a comedy show has three main characters, they will almost always fill stock roles in the plot. To get how it works, imagine this scenario:
Three people are in a car. The Leader of the group considers himself the smartest, and appoints himself navigator. He tries to get the three of them to their destination, but he's seriously out of touch with reality, or has no idea what he's doing but refuses to admit it, and shouts bizarre directions that will inevitably lead to the car going off a cliff.
In the driver's seat is The Fool, a total moron who blindly does whatever he's told. So, with the navigator screaming directions at him, the car approaches the cliff. In theory, the driver could stop at any time, but he soldiers on with his oddball behavior in blissful ignorance.
Meanwhile, trapped in the back seat is the Only Sane Man. He doesn't necessarily have to be smart, but he has to be the one with the most common sense compared to the other two. And that common sense allows him to be the only one who is fully aware that they're about to fly off a cliff, and he's completely unable to stop it. He tries to alert the navigator, but he can't outshout that bullying idiot. He tries to reason with the driver, but the driver happily ignores him, maybe cheerfully explaining: "Thanks, but I already have a navigator!" He then looks to the wheel to grab it from the driver, but he doesn't have the guts to try, and risk crashing the car himself. He often resigns himself to his powerless position, offering a witty comment, shrugging at the audience or just remaining strangely calm as the car goes sailing off the cliff and falls to its doom.
That's the Comic Trio. One character powers the plot with their bizarre obsessions, one keeps it going by blindly following orders, and a Straight Man fails to prevent the disaster.
The most common set-up is for the navigator to be a Pointy-Haired Boss and incompetent Schemer whose schemes always backfire, but there are other ways to do it. It's also fairly common for the Straight Man of the trio to be female.
In clowning, these positions are respectively referred to as Whiteface, Auguste, and Tramp.
This is a type of Power Trio. Contrast Freudian Trio, a much less dysfunctional variation. Compare Terrible Trio. Add another complainer and you have a Four-Man Band.

The Penguins of Madagascar:
Skipper is the unquestionable leader, the follower depends on what's required at the moment: either SCIENCE! (Kowalsky) or wanton destruction (Rico) and Private is the one that objects and tries that the current plan doesn't involve much SCIENCE! and/or wanton destruction.
King Julien is the egomaniacal leader, Mort is the ditzy Fearless Fool, and Maurice is the Only Sane Man.

The Chanels in Scream Queens (2015) fit this in different combinations:
With Chanel, Chanel Number Three, and Chanel Number Five, Chanel is always The Leader, with Three and Five altering between The Fool and Only Sane Man depending on the situation. Most consistently, with Number Five as The Only Sane Man and Number Three as The Fool.
When Chanel Number Three, Chanel Number Five, and Hester team up, Hester takes on the role of The Leader, with Chanel Number Three being The Fool and going along with whatever Hester plans (though slightly more so out of amusement than stupidity) and Chanel Number Five as the Only Sane Man.

Comic subversion: Jeff Smith's Bone. While it may seem that the Bone cousins each fill the workings of the Comic Trio early on (Phoney is a schemer, Smiley is stupid, Fone is powerless), it becomes more obvious as the series progresses that this is not the case: Fone can exert some power and definitely has a backbone, Phoney might only be greedy because all three of them were orphaned at an early age and, being the oldest of the three, he had the reponsibility of looking after the cousins himself. He also becomes slightly more sympathetic as the comic goes on. Smiley is more obvious, as he is not stupid, just very optimistic, and later agrees with Fone that Phoney might not always be right.

Subverted in Achewood with the three cats who started out as a real Comic Trio, but after some character development: Ray is the navigator (a subversion since his plans, no matter how insane, ALWAYS work out), Beef follows Ray's lead (he's a manic depressive with passivity to a fault — but still the only person capable of talking Ray out of anything), and Pat is the "smart one" (but so "smart" that he's unbearably obnoxious, and so unwilling to listen to other points of view that he ends up making the wrong calls in the end).

The Gang in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia shuffle roles around many episodes, but Mac, Dennis and Charlie are the most common trio (usually with Dennis as the clueless leader, Mac as the ignored voice of reason and Charlie as the dumb follower, although this can switch an any given moment). Dee, Artemis and The Waitress are the Distaff Counterpart, though Dee also tends to fill the "ignored voice of reason" role (in which case Mac will usually be the dumb one). Frank, as the Wild Card, can fill any role.

The Tanner sisters from Full House. Michelle is definitely the naïvely used one, but while DJ takes charge, she's pretty much the Only Sane Man. Stephanie is quite intelligent, but is more of a Ditzy Genius who makes things crazier by going along with DJ (often to her annoyance). In the end, both often share the blame for what happens. Lampshaded once where they were called "the Three Stooges in pantyhose".

Looney Tunes:
The shorts would sometimes combine Bugs, Daffy and Elmer this way. Daffy is the pushy and loud one, Elmer is the stupid one who'll do anything, and Bugs is the smart one. In a bit of subversion, since he's the "hero" of the story, he doesn't end up going off the cliff as much as Daffy does in his place.
Perhaps an even better example would be Chuck Jones' Three Bears series, with Pa as the bossy one, Junyer as the idiot, and Ma as the sane one who's ignored.

The Light Warriors of 8-Bit Theater are a rare attempt of translating this into a quartet — although many times one is left out to make sure it fits. Red Mage is the Schemer, Fighter is the Follower, Thief is the Sane Man (with Schemer moments too), and Black Mage is the Somewhat Sane Man.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force: Shake is insane, Meatwad is stupid, Frylock is powerless (Well, it's more like he just has a lot of self-restraint). This is a possible Double Subversion, insofar as, as a superhero, Frylock is easily the most powerful of the three, with a great deal of inherent destructive potential plus gadgeteering. He's just completely ineffectual when it comes to stopping Shake's antics.

A Goofy Movie, particularly in the scene where Max gets onstage to impress Roxanne, has one in the form of Max (the schemer), PJ (the powerless), and Bobby (the follower). Strangely, though the trio gets more screentime in the sequel, they don't play this as much, though they still do have the personalities to match. This is evident when Bradley is impressed by Max's charisma, and unimpressed by Bobby's weirdness and PJ's timidity.

Classic Disney Shorts: Mickey, Donald and Goofy arguably fit, but their roles don't play out the same. Donald Duck could be the loudmouthed jerk and Goofy could be the submissive idiot (Mickey Mouse is more or less the sensible but ineffectual straight man, anyway), but a lot of the time Donald is actually right; Goofy is the one to cause the trouble while Donald ends up suffering for it.

Rocko's Modern Life plays this interestingly. Rocko, the main character is usually the leader while Heffer is the fool and Filburt is the neurotic Nervous Wreck. Sometimes, the trio alternates their roles, with Heffer being the leader who mainly instigates the predicaments, Filburt following along, and Rocko complaining about his friend's antics.

The Kittisaurus show Kittisaurus Villains has this shared by multiple cats. Lulu is the one who comes up with the snack heists that inevitably go wrong. Dodo, DD and Lala all share the fool role, going along with whatever Lulu says either out of loyalty or because they don't know any better. Coco, Momo, TT and, on occasion, Chuchu will be the complainer- warning the others that their heists are about to fail or delivering some brutal snark when they do.

In Pigs in Space on The Muppet Show plays with the roles a bit. Link Hogthrob is the leader, Miss Piggy is loudmouthed and Dr. Strangepork is insane, so they all have characteristics of the navigator. Link is usually too dumb, though. Strangepork is the smartest, but Piggy is the sane one.
However, some of the sketches follow a pretty basic comic-trio layout: Link, or sometimes Dr. Strangepork, will suggest a stupid plan, the other will go along with it (Strangepork because Link is captain and Link because Strangepork is smarter than him), and Piggy will be overruled despite her quite sensible protests.

Ready Jet Go!:
Jet is the leader who comes up with crazy schemes. While Sydney isn't dumb, she's very eager to join Jet's plans. Sean is the Only Sane Man and complainer.
The trio of younger kids fit into this as well. Mindy is the leader, Lillian is the airheaded follower, and Mitchell is the complainer.

Homestuck: The Midnight Crew. Their leader is Spades Slick, a vile backstabber who forms all the plans, and there are Clubs Deuce, who more resembles a Tag Along Kid than a member of the crew, and Hearts Boxcars, a big guy who just tags along with their plans, and Diamonds Droog, the Only Sane Man.

Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog has Scratch, who originates most schemes independent of Robotnik, Grounder, who tries to carry them out, and Robotnik himself, who's left fuming at the mess they get into. When Robotnik dispatches all three of his robots to capture Sonic, Coconuts, the smartest of the three, is usually powerless, but is sometimes the fool who ends up letting Sonic get away at the last minute due to getting in over his head.

In Sonic Colors and subsequent games, Eggman, as the series Big Bad, is the schemer who comes up with evil plans, while of his two robot advisors, Cubot is the dim follower who does whatever his boss wants and often annoys him with his antics, and Orbot is the rational one who shrugs at the stupidity of both his boss and his fellow advisor.

DuckTales (2017) gives us two to serve as foils.
The triplets. Huey is always the complainer, but his brothers trade off — either Louie's got a selfish scheme and Dewey follows, or Dewey's got a reckless adventure and Louie follows.
The Beagle Boys. Big Time is the schemer, and like Ed he's not good at it. Burger is the follower. Bouncer, surprisingly, is both the complainer and the smartest of the three by far.

Dinko, Gumpers, and - depending on the episode - either Tommy or Swanky of Pet Alien. Dinko is the leader, constantly conducting half-thought-out schemes to help Tommy out or learn about Earth culture. Gumpers is the follower who helps Dinko in his schemes, being too dumb to know any better. Tommy and Swanky frequently trade off the Only Sane Man role depending on the episode, as one will get dragged into the aliens' antics while the other sits on the sidelines and acts as the Straight Man.

In episode 1 of Teach Me! Ms. Litchi Reloaded, the roles are swapped. Litchi and Tsubaki are assertive dingbats who try to take shortcuts in restoring Taokaka's intellect from the previous season, Noel is still the tool who keeps the ball rolling, leaving poor Makoto to shriek in futility to get them to stop the abuse. It culminates in Tao nearly getting wasted from everything they've done.

In Dragon Ball Z Abridged, the three androids take this role. In the original series, all three got along fairly well without real roles. Here, they all fit in fairly easily. Android 17 is the de facto leader and schemer. Android 18 goes along with things and usually complains. Android 16, who doesn't have any programmed personality, simply does anything he is told would help him to kill Son Goku (when he isn't bird-watching).

Four Eyes!: Emma, Skyler and Pete could count as a mild example. Whenever Emma gets herself into some sort of jam (usually, that might expose her alien identity), chances are her two friends have to intervene and/or help her, which results to rather unneeded complications if things should go wrong.

Noel, Tsubaki and Makoto fit. Makoto is the assertive one who comes up with all the zany and often stupid plans, Noel just goes along with what Makoto says, and poor Tsubaki sits there snarking, knowing full well that she can't stop them. This is most apparent in the Teach Me, Miss Litchi segments.

Berserk: Corkus, Rickert and Pippin were this to Band of Hawk. With Corkus being the loudmouth jerk, Rickert being the over emotional kid and Pippin the gentle giant. Guts also got pulled into comic situations earlier on, being knocked into a moat when Rickert comes to congratulate him and when he is being pulled up, Pippin comes up from behind causing Guts to fall back and pulling Rickert back in to water. All while Casca watches on.
Some shades of this come from the Main Trio, Guts, Casca and Griffith themselves. Especially on this Christmas poster◊ which in retrospective is waay to happy when thinking about what happens to these three later.
In Guts new traveling party, two comedy trios are set up, both with Isidro in them. The kid trio with Isidro and the two girls Schierke and Isma the Mermaid is very silly and even goes into Love Triangle territory. The second trio is Puck. Isidro and Magnifico (Farnese's younger brother) who goof around relentlessly during the Hawk of the Millennium Empire Arc which goes from funny to annoying very fast especially when dealing with the more important matters of curing Casca in the Fantasia Arc.

Whenever Steven Universe needs trio gags (which is a lot, particularly in season 2-3 episodes), the Crystal Gems very readily provide. Garnet is the leader (usually Comically Serious), Pearl is the neurotic nutcase who makes some spectacularly stupid decisions despite being normally intelligent, and Amethyst just sits back and watches.

In The Goodies, the three characters alternated these roles regularly. Most commonly, it seemed to be Graeme being the leader, Bill carrying through his schemes, and Tim disagreeing, but requiring the money for the job enough to go along. Then again, as Graeme was at times too distracted to carry through all the way, Tim was at times dedicated enough to serving England to take over leadership, and Bill had his moments of inspiration too, the roles did switch around a lot. Occasionally it would even avoid separating the roles - in one episode, Graeme is a power mad pirate radio station owner, and both Bill and Tim are the powerless snarkers.

The main trio in Daily Lives of High School Boys have shades of this. Hidenori is the loudest and usually comes up with zany schemes, making him The Leader; Yoshitake is somewhat dense and goes along with whatever Hidenori suggests, making him The Fool; and Tadakuni is the Only Sane Man who get's dragged into everything whether he likes it or not.

MonteFjanton's series Mystikhörnan parodies conspiracy theorists, with the protagonists following this dynamic. Morgan Månstråle is the schemer who sets out to prove his theories are correct using... unconventional means, Kenneth Hyvel is the follower who helps Morgan with his experiments, and Leffe is the complainer who's stuck with them (mostly because they're hiring his studio) and constantly criticises the others' plans.

In The Office, Michael, Dwight and Jim often act as this with Michael being the leader, Dwight being the blindly obedient one and Jim being the only one with sense, particularly evident when they team up in the 'Branch Wars' episode. Ironically, in another episode of that season Dwight acts as the smart man while Michael blindly obeys (and misinterprets) the directions of his GPS, driving directly into a clearly visible lake.
Also the trio who start the Michael Scott Paper Company in Season Five. Michael is once again the leader. Ryan is usually the guy who follows him — or at least doesn't question him much — but arguably in the episode "Broke" he is analogous to a navigator as he formulates their unworkable company strategy. Pam is the closest thing this company has to an Only Sane Man although she is Not So Above It All by virtue of having joined in the first place. She even compares the company to a crashed car. Another variant is when Ryan and Pam bicker while Michael is the mediator as it's looks like a dysfunctional family of two siblings and a father.

The Materials have this dynamic in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's Portable: The Gears of Destiny and all related Spin Offs, with Lord Dearche as the leader, Levi the Slasher as the dumb and obedient one, and Stern the Destructor as the smart yet usually passive one. They provide the majority of the game's comic relief, until the situation proves serious enough for Stern to take charge of the planning so that they could have a chance to defeat the Arc Villain.

Girl Genius has a couple of different trios, but Dimo, Maxim and Oggie are the best example. Dimo is the Straight Man of the group, but Maxim and Oggie tend to switch roles every so often. Generally Maxim is the one who thinks he knows best, and Oggie just goes along with it. But don't be fooled by the goofing around — they're all 300-year-old Super Soldiers and can very quickly become a Power Trio if called for.

30 Rock loves this. See:
The Tracy Jordan Entourage. Tracy is the unstable leader, Dot Com is the smart and powerless guy, Grizz is the enabler (although Grizz is almost as smart and just as sane as Dot Com, he's less troubled by letting Tracy do what he wants).
The actors on the show. In this case, Tracy is the follower, while Jenna is the crazy leader and Danny is the smart one. Lampshaded by Jenna.
In the writers room, we have Frank as the leader, Lutz as the follower, and Toofer as the smart guy.
One could also make a case with Jack as the leader, Jonathan as the follower, and Liz as the smart one, but Jack also tends to be right.

Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Mads fit this archetype during the Sci-Fi Channel years. Pearl Forrester is the leader, Bobo is her dumb-as-a-brick minion, and Observer is the (mostly) sane man who nobody listens to.
Joel (and later Mike and Jonah), Crow, and Tom Servo in the theater certainly qualify.

The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius is a strange example as Jimmy is the schemer, Sheen goes along but the role of the voice of reason depends on the episode. If it's just Carl with them, then he's the powerless sense of reason.

Mulan gives viewers the three men who serve largely as the comic relief, often involving slapstick humor that made them reminiscent of the Three Stooges. Yao is the self-appointed leader of the trio. Ling and Yao occasionally have disagreements, but Ling grows to accept Yao as their leader. Chien-Po is either naive compared to the two of them, or he's serene enough to accept whatever they do without fuss (it's established that he's very physically strong, so whatever mischief they get into, he could probably rely on his force to get them out of it).

Futurama:
Mom's sons, Walt, Larry and Igner. It's subverted in that the leader, Walt, is actually the most intelligent of the three. However, he still comes up with some pretty awful plans, usually revolving around ridiculous disguises, while Igner is braindead and Larry even more spineless than most comic trios to compensate. The main reason they succeed at all is because Fry is the frequent target of their plans.
The main three characters often display this dynamic with Bender and Fry switching off between the driver and navigator, with Leela as the straight man.

Hetalia: Axis Powers:
The Axis are this more often than they would like. With Germany as the leader, Italy as the one who blindly follows orders (or surrenders and having the leader bail him out) and Japan as the one who cannot understand Western Culture. Though this trio is a bit of an unusual case, as the leader in this case is often the Only Sane Man, while Italy is the main screw-up who causes most of the wacky hijinks to ensue.
The second example of this could be the fandoms interpretation (and sometimes canon) of the Bad Touch/Friends Trio. Usually with Prussia as the 'leader', Francis and Spain swap between the other two roles. Although there are fics and strips with each of them playing each role.

Sonic the Hedgehog:
Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog has Scratch, who originates most schemes independent of Robotnik, Grounder, who tries to carry them out, and Robotnik himself, who's left fuming at the mess they get into. When Robotnik dispatches all three of his robots to capture Sonic, Coconuts, the smartest of the three, is usually powerless, but is sometimes the fool who ends up letting Sonic get away at the last minute due to getting in over his head.

Also Ino-Shika-Cho in Naruto during the Chunin Exams specifically. Their first team battle when saving Sakura is amusing to say the least (the anime even gives it some quirky, fun background music) and in the Viz translation of the manga, Naruto even refers to them as 'The Three Stooges'.
They even seem to fit the roles of the Comic Trio too: back then, Ino was definitely the hot-headed, driving force of the team, often shooting down the lazy but intelligent Shikamaru's ideas, while bossing Choji around

Even with more than three main characters, this trope can pop up. In Kappa Mikey, for example, these tend to crystalize around Mikey as the crazy one, with Gonard generally the stupid one, and Guano. Lily, or Mitsuki as the powerless one, as the plot demands. The roles can switch around, though... One episode actually has Ozu as the crazy one, Mikey as the stupid one, and Yes Man as the powerless one.

SpongeBob SquarePants:
Variant: SpongeBob is demented, Patrick is stupid, Squidward is powerless. The difference is that Squidward is the bossy, unsympathetic one. So the audience roots for SpongeBob instead, even as he leads the trio off the cliff.
Alternately, the Krusty Krab trio can be considered this, with Mr. Krabs as the scheming leader, SpongeBob as the idiot that goes along with everything, and Squidward as the straight man who's largely ignored by the other two.

The Yogscast have had some examples over the years:
During the Jaffa Factory videos, Honeydew Inc. was run this way, with the dynamic firmly set for later series such as Hole Diggers. The basic format was Lewis Brindley coming up with the plans, Duncan Jones being smart enough to make them work but never questioning orders, and Simon Lane doing all the heavy lifting and just sort of fooling around in the meantime. Or, as one commenter put it:
Blackrock Chronicle team has a similar dynamic: Rythian comes up with the plans, Teep is blindly obedient, and Zoey Proasheck is too busy goofing around to help.
A similar thing happens during "Monster Hunters". Hannah Rutherford leads, Kim Richards obeys, and Simon Lane screws up a lot.

The mildly ditzy Sweetie Belle, the gung-ho Scootaloo, and the practical, sane Apple Bloom. Generally, Scootaloo will suggest something crazy, Apple Bloom (who isn't stupid by any means; she's just game for anything) will go along with it and Sweetie Belle (who despite being a bit ditzy actually has the most common sense of the three) won't complain loud enough to avoid getting dragged along.
In the episode "Green Isn't Your Color", Rarity forces Fluttershy to live out her dream, Fluttershy is too nice to say no, and Twilight is powerless to solve the problem due to her Pinkie promises.

Doctor Who:
A truly bizarre example is the three Daleks in the serial "The Chase" — there's a permanently frustrated Pointy-Haired Boss Dalek, a stupid Dalek who gets confused easily, stumbles over his words and falls over and a Dalek who is better at exterminating but is powerless to resist orders from his superiors. "The Chase" is a pretty weird Dalek story.
Robert Holmes often derived his Creator Thumbprint Lightmare Fuel tone from setting his villains up like this, then using them to tell a genuinely frightening horror story. Even when he wasn't using the entire trio, the "character who thinks he's a genius, has some legitimate talent, but actually has no idea what he's doing" was one of his favourite archetypes, and formed the backbone of the Master, the Fourth Doctor (a rare heroic example from him), and virtually all other prominent characters he created.
"The Brain of Morbius" features Solon, an obsessive, grandiloquent idiot who thinks he is a genius despite his plan being one that a toddler could see the issues with; Condo, his even stupider thrall who does the grunt work; and Morbius, an actual genius, well aware that Solon's plan is terrible, and powerless to do anything about it between his diminished physical status and suicidal depression.
"The Talons of Weng-Chiang" features Chang, whose intelligence rivals even the Doctor's, but derives his means to survive in Victorian society from Greel's approval; Greel, a domineering, vain moron with a nonsensical plan that will lead to his demise; and Mr. Sin, an Omnicidal Maniac with the brain of a pig who cares about nothing except getting to kill as many people as possible.
In Season 16: The Doctor thinks he's the most remarkable genius in the Universe, but is a failed student, egomaniac and the stupidest person aboard the TARDIS at that point, and mostly gets out of situations by schoolboy science, blagging, and dumb luck. Romana's intelligence leaves him in the dust, but her catty personality, the whim of the Guardian, and her generally horrible luck leads to her having to be his second-in-command. K-9 is also much smarter than the Doctor in terms of raw computing power, but can't understand common figures of speech, is not capable of independent thought and has no common sense at all.

Beast Wars: Inferno, Quickstrike and Waspinator are frequently paired together to carry out minor schemes of Megatron's. Inferno is in charge and gives the orders, but is absolutely insane. Quickstrike's a complete idiot who will blindly follow anyone who gives him a chance to slag somebody. Waspinator is aware of how ridiculous the two are but is too powerless to do anything but complain to himself, and usually suffers for it. In the finale Waspinator finally stands up for himself, tells off Inferno and Quickstrike, and quits the Predacons. Almost immediately thereafter, Inferno and Quickstrike are killed and Waspinator's life is saved by virtue of not being with them.
Transformers has two more trios like this. In Transformers: Armada, Rad is the ringleader, Carlos right behind him, Alexis trying to keep them out of trouble. In Transformers: Prime, Too Dumb to Live Miko puts herself In Harm's Way explicitly because it's fun to her, Jack follows to save her butt (thrusting him into 'driver' role despite his not really thinking "let's go into the middle of a warzone because it's KEWL LOLZ!" is a great plan) while Raf takes the Alexis role.

Uniquely, they balance the Comic Trio qualities with those of a more traditional Power Trio: Ray combines massive amounts of paranormal knowledge with very practical real-world skills (he rebuilds that old ambulance into the team's Cool Car); Egon comes up with the calculations and science that allow for Ghostbusting; and Peter, the schmoozer, facilitates the actual business side of the Ghostbusters operation. Most importantly, their Zany Scheme succeeds.

Ed, Edd n Eddy: Eddy is the leader and the Schemer; Ed is The Fool, the team's Dumb Muscle and a certified Cloudcuckoolander; and Edd is the powerless, Only Sane Man/No-Respect Guy. Almost every episode is kickstarted by Eddy planning a Zany Scheme to make them "rich" and buy candies (specifically, jawbreakers). Ed is kindhearted despite his quirks, and follows (or at least tries to, emphasis on tries) Eddy's instructions to the letter to get the group what they need, no matter how much destruction he leaves in his wake. Finally, because Edd usually follows the trio despite knowing their schemes will fail, he gets yelled at just as much as them.
Notably, in the episode "It Came From Outer Ed", after Ed wants to devise his own scam, the three temporarily swap roles: Ed becomes the "leader/schemer", Edd the "fool", and Eddy the "only sane" one who knows Ed's scam won't work. You wouldn't be wrong to agree with Eddy, given the scam fails.
In an amusing example like the one in the trope's description, The Movie actually has them in a car, with Ed moving it Flintstones style, Eddy uselessly trying to steer, and Edd trying not to throw up in the passenger seat.

Bully introduces Jimmy, Gary, and Pete. In chapter one, Gary is clearly the leader, Jimmy is at times the idiot, and Pete is obviously the victim and the only sane man, being the one who clearly never wants to take part in Gary's schemes.

Pokémon: The Series:
The Team Rocket trio. Jessie and Meowth alternate roles as scheming navigator and driver, though Jessie is often more loudmouthed, while James more often than not suffers in some way, frequently at the expense of his bottle cap collection. James also can act as the driver when Jessie is the navigator, with Meowth too nervous about getting yelled at by Jessie to do anything (often the scenario in earlier episodes). Whenever any one of them decides to enter a competition (other than Jessie's Pokémon Contests) and try to win fair and square for once, they can always count on the other two mess everything up by obliviously playing the villain right as the "good" third actually seems to have a chance at winning.
It's also been well established that Brock can't follow a map to save his life and Ash (at least before Misty left) is more enthusiastic than smart. He actually even marched right off a cliff once, though, too his credit, he was in a dense fog.

Top Gear has a lot of shuffling with this, although Jeremy's usually the schemer, with Richard and James trading off on the stupid/going along with it and the helpless.

The Bolt Chronicles:
Bolt, Mittens, and Rhino exemplify the trope in "The Ski Trip," "The Cakes," and "The Supermarket," with Rhino being the instigator, Bolt as the muscle, and Mittens as the Only Sane Man. The last eventually loses patience and morphs into a Not So Above It All active participant in retaliation during the first two stories.
Played with in the case of puppy mill females Corabell, Dorabell, and Mae in "The Seven" and pigeons Vinny, Joey, and Bobby in "The Protection Payment." While being trios of comic characters, they do not fulfill the trope's most common stock roles.

Pound Puppies (2010):
The Super Secret Pup Club happen to be one with Patches as The Leader, Rebound as The Fool, and Cupcake as the Only Sane Man.
Whike the main dogs on the show do make up a perfect Five-Man Band, there is one episode where they become a Comic Trio. In the episode, "Hail to the Chief", Cookie and Squirt are in the episode, but they sit out on the mission while the other three go on it. In this case, we have Strudel as the schemer trying to prove that she has good leadership skills, Niblet as the big doofus, and Lucky (despite being the true leader) as the Only Sane Man who is mostly powerless and just along for the ride.

Discussed in the Fire Emblem: Three Houses fic A Mercenary and a Goddess land a Professorship. Manuela notes that she, Hanneman, and Byleth would be fit to star in a comedy skit; Manuela and Hanneman perfectly fit as The Leader and the Straight Man, although Byleth is more deadpan follower than clueless ditz.

On Homestar Runner, in some cartoons Strong Bad is the schemer, Strong Mad is stupid, and the smart one who's powerless will either be The Cheat or Strong Sad (usually the former, since the latter doubles as Strong Bad's favorite target). Just as often, though, Homestar will be the stupid one, and Strong Bad will be smart and powerless.

The Trio from Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Warren is the schemer, Jonathan is powerless even though his conscience might otherwise lead him to speak up against Warren; and Andrew may not be stupider than the others, but he's by far the most out-of-touch with reality. Andrew's also the one most likely to do whatever Warren tells him to, no matter how stupid or evil, due to his idol crush on him (or just plain crush, depending on how you interpret Andrew's character).

The four senior K-On! girls come very close to this. Yui and Ritsu are dual leaders, bouncing their energy off each other and running wild. Mio is the ever-suffering sane girl, and Mugi will happily go along with anything. Alternately, Yui is The Fool.

Olsen-banden is one of, if not the most famous examples of this trope in Scandinavian media. Egon is the schemer, Benny is the follower and Kjeld is the complainer. For added measure, whenever they're in a car, they tend to follow this dynamic precisely: Benny behind the wheel, Egon in the passenger's seat and Kjeld in the backseat. The Swedish adaptations generally keep to this pattern, with Egon's counterpart always remaining the leader; however, once Kjeld's counterpart is Put on a Bus and Harry takes his spot, Harry sometimes switches between the complainer and follower roles due to Alcohol-Induced Stupidity.

The Three Stooges may have been the original Comic Trio — certainly they're the guys we're most likely to think of. Moe comes up with dumb schemes, Curly and his replacements carry them out (while making them even dumber), and Larry is just too spineless to avoid being dragged along. (Sometimes, but only sometimes, Larry's aware of the stupidity of a plan; he's got a less crippling case of Cloud Cuckoolander than Curly or his replacements do.)

Transformers has two more trios like this. In Transformers: Armada, Rad is the ringleader, Carlos right behind him, Alexis trying to keep them out of trouble. In Transformers: Prime, Too Dumb to Live Miko puts herself In Harm's Way explicitly because it's fun to her, Jack follows to save her butt (thrusting him into 'driver' role despite his not really thinking "let's go into the middle of a warzone because it's KEWL LOLZ!" is a great plan) while Raf takes the Alexis role.

A number of Soviet comedies (including Operation Y and Shurik's Other Adventures and Kidnapping, Caucasian Style) feature the actors Vitsin, Nikulin, and Morgunov playing the roles of Coward, Fool and Experienced respectively. Morgunov plays the leader, Nikulin the dingbat and Vitsin the complainer. The 2014 remake of Kidnapping, Caucasian Style also uses the characters' dynamic (though they are played by new actors due to all three of the original actors having passed away).
