A parody is a twisted imitation of another artistic work. An intentional mockery, though often a loving one, it imitates the style of the original in order to puncture its mistakes and point out its flaws. Some aspects may be exaggerated, and others downplayed. Usually comedic, but occasionally dark and deconstructive. Can be sublime, or worse than the original. Sometimes a Homage or Shout-Out doubles as a parody. And sometimes the entire work gets parodied. Lack of knowledge of and/or respect for the source material is the most common danger of parody. Not all parody is satire. As satire is usually pursuing an intellectual point, we expect it to be critical. On the other hand, most parodies are watched by people who liked the original stories, so pointing out too loudly that something is stupid (or that it broadly seems to defy the premise) can subconsciously insult the viewer. In fact, many successful parodies still use the situation or design that they mock. They simply point out that it doesn't make sense, but let the appeal be in the eye of the beholder. Another danger is the assumption that the audience is familiar with the subject matter being parodied; extensive parodies have multiple layers of comic gold. This can be shaky ground, depending on the age of your audience, and writers sometimes resign themselves to broad, widely known characters and situations. The problem is that such things have probably already been parodied to death. Enough parodies can cause a shift to that version of the character becoming the archetype, leading to later subversions of subversions. The most basic idea is, of course, that a parody is essentially something you've seen before in a different form. Your audience hopes you bring something new to the table, and will not be impressed if all you do is regurgitate tropes. The nature of parody can lead to unfortunate Misaimed Fandom. See also Satire, Pastiche, Farce, Meta Trope Intro, Parodied Trope (spoofing a trope). For a list of tropes used in parodies, see Parody Tropes. |

Drew Gooden: A staple of his humor, especially on Vine, is that he likes to make fun of and exaggerate tropes or real-life trends, from his As-Seen-On-TV parody "Water In Your Hands", where the pitch is that water bottles are far too convenient to use, to his sitcom parody where the Laugh Track drowns out the dialogue and acts like the father coming home is the funniest thing ever, and many, many more examples in between. "Vine: Where Are They Now?" parodies "Where Are They Now?"-style documentaries, with Drew creating fake stories for a ton of infamous, One-Hit Wonder Vine-stars; such as claiming the Deez Nuts guy went onto host his own 12-season prank show. |

Parodies were the Carry On movies' forte. It was rather daring at the time because the owners of the films they wanted to parody feared that they were stealing, but Hollywood's paranoia was soon reassured. Carry On Cleo was a parody of Cleopatra, with many references to Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra and Julius Caesar. Carry On Spying mocked James Bond, with many characters being named after many espionage characters. Carry On Jack nodded to swashbucklers and Wooden Ships and Iron Men movies, particularly Mutiny on the Bounty. |

Beverly Hills Ninja is a parody of Mighty Whitey ninja films. It features a tribe of ninjas adopting an orphan Caucasian boy whom they think will be their clan's long-prophesied "Great White Hope." Unfortunately for them, the boy grows up to be a clumsy, uncoordinated adult (played by Chris Farley) and the only way he can save the day is with the secret assistance of the ninja tribe's best Japanese member. | |

Dave Hollins: Space Cadet, a miniseries in Son of Cliché, was a parody of 2001: A Space Odyssey in which the titular character was left as the sole survivor of his ship's crew.

MAD specializes in parodies, particularly those of movies and TV shows. Some also have satirical elements...but for some reason, the magazine refers to all of them as satires, not parodies, so it's no wonder Keanu Reeves got confused. | |

Dear White People: The A-P students’ favorite shows are Defamation, a parody of Scandal, and Prince O’Palities, a parody of Empire. Not to mention the episode centered on Gabe where all his fantasy sequences are parodies of films like Do the Right Thing, Persona (1966), and Blaxploitation flicks. The third season has one of The Handmaid's Tale (with the Handmaids in blue rather than red), which also serves to criticize some aspects. |

The Oceanic Six: A Conspiracy of Lies is a mockumentary on the Lost season 4 DVD. Presented as an in-universe documentary, the film is an obvious parody of Loose Change, from the music, voiceovers, interviews with questionably qualified scientists, anonymous interviews, wild accusations, and claims of a government coverup in regards to the crash of Oceanic flight 815 and the subsequent rescuing of six passengers. The irony is that the documentary is right that the official story is a lie... but its explanation is hilariously wrong (one word: cannibalism). | |

A grand Italian tradition is that of redubbing, which consists in gag dubs of movies ranging from sketches to full-length movies that may not share the film's plot or premise at all (sometimes with extensive new footage shot). Started with Star Trek II way back in the 1980s, making the gag dub Older Than They Think. Lots of parodies can be found here (naturally in Italian, and many of which are strictly in local dialects). A recurring gag in a Gag Dub is to use the original dialogue of certain characters. By simply changing the other dialogue around it, what they said makes them look even stupider than if their dialogue had been changed. Occasionally, lampshades may be hung on the use of original lines. Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series is fond of a flashing * ACTUAL 4KIDS DIALOG* label on the bottom of the screen. |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: During the big "Goof-Off" in "Pinkie Pride", Cheese Sandwich (voiced by "Weird Al" Yankovic no less!) sings a polka version of Pinkie Pie's "Smile Song" from "A Friend in Deed", and Pinkie herself calls him on it. | |

Villains by Necessity: The book is one of the standard "Heroes have to save the world" plot, with some "bad guys" now having to save the universe from the "good guys" after they won. It also generally parodies many fantasy cliches, with the Dragonlance characters being more specifically parodied through one band of heroes who try to stop these villain protagonists, along with borrowing the idea that if good wins, it must turn evil itself in the end. | |

The Monty Python's Flying Circus "Science Fiction Sketch" is a parody of British science fiction that comes across nowadays as being a very close parody of the Third Doctor era of Doctor Who - ludicrous costumes, Science in Genre Only, Aliens in Cardiff, a suave and painfully serious Science Hero explaining the plot to a Dumb Blonde Watson, The Brigadier... even though it aired six months before that era even started. | |

Police Squad! was a parody of 1960s- and 1970s-vintage Police Procedural shows, particularly the output of Quinn Martin Productions, and specifically M Squad. And an Australian version Funky Squad. Angie Tribeca is a Police Squad!-inspired show with a similar style of humor that mocks police procedurals of the 2010's. |

The Howard Stern Show used to and sometimes still will parody television shows and movies, although more frequently song parodies are featured, many of which, sent in by fans, are about being sexually attracted to news anchor Robin Quivers. Thousands of these exist, and one or two are always played before her news segment. | |

Homestar Runner's "fake" and now Defictionalized Videlectrix had been producing parody games long before Telltale Games Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People. Since point-and-click adventures had become self-parodying since their early years, it was a natural format. | |

Chris Ray Gun: Many of his songs, both full-length and within-episodes, are political-based parodies of pre-existing songs. Funnily enough, he discovered in "Cringe with Chris" that his first attempt at this was back in 2009, where he made a parody of "Pretty Fly for a White Guy" known as "Pretty Fly for a Fat Guy". | |

Pyst is, on the surface, a Myst parody, but is more of a novelty application that barely even touched upon the original game and its surrounding fandom, with one reviewer likening it to a Seltzer and Friedberg spoof film in a somewhat interactive form. Besides the aforementioned Pyst, this has been the staple of Parroty Interactive a subsidiary of Palladium Interactive. While they did produce games, er, novelty applications, which parodied popular fantasy and sci-fi franchises of the day, their efforts were short-lived especially as most of Parroty's titles were critically panned. |

Orpheus in the Underworld parodies Orpheus opera in general, but a specific target of the work is Gluck's Orfeo ed Euridice, with Public Opinion serving as a counterpart to Cupid. Orpheus even sings a bit of the famous "Che farò senza Euridice" aira to be let into Hades. | |
