A character desperately needs to get to sleep. Maybe they've been awake for three days straight; maybe they have an important meeting to attend in the morning. But for whatever reason, no matter how hard they try or how much they toss and turn, they simply can't fall asleep. Cue the character trying to get to sleep by counting imaginary sheep. Cartoons may show the sheep in an Imagine Spot. Those sheep may be jumping over a fence, walking into frame, or simply standing in a field; it doesn't matter. The intention is to drift off to sleep through the sheer boredom and repetition of counting them. Unfortunately, proven by science to be ineffective in real life. Because most people know (normally through personal experience) that counting sheep does not help the counter to fall asleep, this trope is rarely played straight nowadays. More often than not, it can be found: Deconstructed (with the character concentrating so intently on counting sheep that they forget to sleep. If interrupted, cue swearing and/or recounting) Parodied (flocks of non-imaginary sheep have a soporific effect because people will try to count them) and/or Exaggerated (using some weird method in counting sheep, like counting something else, or the sheep is doing something else other than jumping, or using a calculator, or counting to 338,547 sheep, or setting up an animation of sheep jumping using a computer...) Very often, it will be Played for Laughs. When it's ineffective, the trope can also be used to show how serious the character's insomnia is. When it's too effective, on the other hand, it shows how easily the character drifts off to sleep. |

The Casagrandes: In "Silent Fight", C.J. and Carl accidentally wake up Carlitos when they fight with each other and try to get him back to sleep to avoid having him wake up their sleep-deprived parents (as Frida had threatened to ground them for two months if they woke Carlitos up). C.J. and Carl make sheep costumes, dress in them, and take turns jumping near Carlitos' crib until Carlitos falls asleep. This plan works, but when Carl notices his El Falcon action figure in C.J.'s back pocket, he fights over it with him, waking up Carlitos and their parents and getting themselves grounded as a result. | |

Count Your Sheep obviously derives its title from this trope. In the very first strip, Katie puts herself to sleep by counting her imaginary friend, Ship the sheep. Since there's only one of him, this doesn't take long. There have been several variations on the gag over the years, including this semi-serious one. | |

Monica's Gang had at least two cases, one where the title character was traumatized by Tremors and tried counting sheep to finally sleep, and managed to do so even if they turn into Graboids; and a Chuck Billy story concerned the title character and his friend Zeke facing problems when assigned to check the size of a herd i.e. literally count sheep, something that whenever they attempted, it made them sleepy (the eventual solution was painting numbers on every animal). | |

Gensou Shoujo Taisen Yume introduces an original character, Meeko, a sheep youkai. Her special effect causes characters who are too close to her and have a Will below a certain level to be unable to act (because they fall asleep). Incidentally, "mee" is the Japanese onomonopeia for a sheep's cry (the equivalent of "baa"), while "-ko" is a standard ending for Japanese female names, meaning her name basically means "baa girl". | |

Octopath Traveler II plays it for laughs in a tavern banter between Osvald, Hikari, Partitio, and Temenos. Osvald asks everyone about their opinions on the mysterious One True Magic. Hikari thinks its source is friendship, Partitio says it's money, and Temenos claims that it's sheep. When questioned, Temenos proceeds to explain that since counting sheep puts you to sleep, sheep obviously have some kind of special power. The other guys find this idea to be decent and try it out... and it works. | |

The Garfield Show episode "Silence of the Sheep" has Mr. Sandman send three sheep to get Garfield to sleep by counting them. Unfortunately, they fail due to Garfield earlier drinking 92 cups of coffee. As a result, the sheep get fired by Mr. Sandman and proceed to cause problems by instead making everyone else in town fall asleep. Eventually, Mr. Sandman gets the sheep back to his domain with Garfield's help and the episode ends with Garfield sleeping by counting lasagnas. | |

An episode "Dream Maker" of KikoRiki revolves around this. Rosa, trying to get a good night's sleep, starts counting sheep, continues to do so in her dream for a while... and there she meets Wally the ram, who apparently has the power of creating dreams for others. Carlin and Krash are also shown to get visits from him in their dreams. Dokko suggests that after thousands of years of counting sheep, they became able to influence others' dreams. Wally, for his part, does not remember anything and barely gets enough sleep himself. | |

The almost daily animation clips that appeared online when Monster Musume was airing all ended with an audio segment of one of the girls counting sheep for main character Kimihito to help him fall asleep. Most of them parodied the trope with Papi falling asleep herself, Suu waking him up so she can finish counting, Tio counting cookies (until she ran out), Manako shouting her counting since she's too nervous to get close and Zombina counting zombies, only to switch to zombie sheep when she's told to count sheep to name but a few. | |

It happens again but to only Meowth this time in the Episode N arc of Pokémon the Series: Black & White when Team Rocket is stealing Mareep from Floccessy Ranch. This actually becomes something of a Brick Joke a few episodes later when Meowth is trying to be resilient to Dr. Colress of Team Plasma's Mind Control experiment – it's shown that Meowth's technique to keep his mind focused is counting Mareep in his head. | |

Neopets: In the game Maths Nightmare, Imiya the Aisha is sleeping before a big math test, and is having a nightmare about a horde of Babaas (sheep-like Petpets) jumping over the fence, all carrying math problems. You have to solve the math problems very fast to keep the line of Babaas moving, or else they'll fall down onto the alarm clock and Imiya will wake up. One of the books that you can read to your Neopet is called Counting Babaas. It's exactly what it sounds like. |

When Gilligan offers him a cup of warm coconut milk, the Skipper says he's already had too many glasses and never wants to see another, or a lamb chop, for that matter. Gilligan is confused, and the Skipper explains that he's counted a huge number of sheep while trying to fall asleep. | |

Arthur: In "Sleep No More", due to nervousness over a pizza eating contest, Buster can't get to sleep so Arthur recommends he count sheep. It works at first until a thought train leads Buster into thinking of pizza and then a pizza eating contest. In the prologue to "Buenos Noches, Vicita", Arthur tells the viewers that everyone has a different method of falling asleep. In Muffy's example, she calls her butler, Bailey, to count sheep for her. She falls asleep shortly after he starts counting. |

In an episode of Gintama, Katsura starts counting sheep to help himself fall asleep. As is typical of the show's nature, this activity eventually leads him to telling a lengthy and tragic story about some high school basketball players, the only things in the story related to the sheep counting being the jumping involved in the sport, and the jersey number of one of the players being the same as that of the sheep he was about to count (Which he finally does at the end of the story). Okita counts Hijikata corpses when he wants to fall asleep. Hijikata naturally isn't amused when he finds out about this. |

Bo's twin sister Lanolin tries to help by having Orson count a conga line formed by her relatives. In "Arrivaderci, Odie", Garfield tries to count sheep, but his guilt at supposedly driving Jon into sending Odie away makes him start counting Odies instead. |

After some thinking, Farmer Jake comes up with his eight words, the sheep jumps the gate and Farmer Jake is finally able to fall asleep.

The Ganz toy company (makers of the Webkinz), as part of its "Flat-A-Pat" collection, sells a "Sleepy Sheep" that evokes this trope by being a plush sheep with its eyes closed in sleep (the other animals in the toyline, in contrast, don't have a sleep theme). Though given it's intended to be a Security Blanket for babies, having it in the bed or crib to cuddle with might actually make it easier for children to fall asleep than the more traditional version of this trope. | |

Muppet Babies (1984): In "Who's Afraid of the Big, Bad Dark?", Gonzo asks Beaker if he's ever counted sheep to help him get to sleep. He also asks if he's counted elephants, squirrels, and kangaroo rats. Fozzie then says he always counts baby ducks jumping over chili dogs into a bowl of tapioca bumblebees. (It Makes Just As Much Sense In Context.) "Muppet Goose" had Fozzie try to count sheep, but he was overwhelmed by how many sheep there were. Of course, it was all an Imagine Spot. In "Gonzee's Playhouse Channel", Kermit and Scooter use paper bag puppets to play the respective roles of "Kert" and "Bernie" on Sesame Seed Boulevard. When Kert can't sleep, he tries to count sheep, but Bernie finds this a bad idea, since Scooter is allergic to sheep. When the sheep jump over the beds, Scooter sneezes, causing his Bernie puppet to fly off his hand. |

SpongeBob SquarePants In "Squeaky Boots", Mr. Krabs falls asleep by counting money jumping into a cash register, but keeps getting woken up by the squeaky boots he gave to SpongeBob. The episode "Snooze You Lose" has an insomniac Squidward taking a walk, only to see several things having to do with sleep. One thing he passes by is a television set showing a flock of sheep on the screen. |

Animal Crossing: New Leaf introduces the Dream Suite, which allows the player to visit other towns in dreams. The character who runs the Dream Suite is a tapir named Luna, who helps the player to fall asleep by counting sheep. New Leaf has peppy villagers sometimes bringing up the question if the player has trouble sleeping at night, and then mentions people counting sheep jumping over a fence, which does not work for her. She then says that she has instead been counting ants jumping over a sugary food (which is selected at random), only for the ants to get stuck in a pile, and the peppy villager can't get to sleep. Vesta's description in Pocket Camp: |

Pokémon: The Series: In the Pokémon: The Original Series episode "Snack Attack", the group is trying to stop a large Snorlax that's eating the grapefruits of seven big islands by making it to fall asleep. One of the things Misty tries is a Snorlax counting routine instead of one with sheep. She only succeeds in putting herself to sleep. In another episode, James, Jessie and Meowth are up in a tree spying on a rancher and her field full of Mareep, which are basically electric sheep. As usual... It happens again but to only Meowth this time in the Episode N arc of Pokémon the Series: Black & White when Team Rocket is stealing Mareep from Floccessy Ranch. This actually becomes something of a Brick Joke a few episodes later when Meowth is trying to be resilient to Dr. Colress of Team Plasma's Mind Control experiment – it's shown that Meowth's technique to keep his mind focused is counting Mareep in his head. Happens a fourth time in Pokémon the Series: XY, when Meowth counts Mareep to get some sleep, and ends up dreaming he's buried under a mountain of Mareep. |

Dragon Quest: A skill by that very name is introduced from Dragon Quest VII onwards, which can put all enemies to sleep during battle, though in the PS1 original, it can only be learned as a hybrid ability by reaching Rank 5 of the Troubadour and/or Shepherd vocations after completing either vocation. In the game's 3DS remake however, it is learned by advancing to Rank 5 of the Shepherd vocation, due to the remake eliminating hybrid abilities. From Dragon Quest VIII onwards though, it becomes an enemy only skill used by Satyrs and Silenuses in battlenote Who also use it once again in Dragon Quest X, as well as Woolmauluses, a rarefied variant of the Cumaulus enemies introduced from 6.4 of Dragon Quest X onwards. | |
