The work opens with one setting, and introduces several characters living there. But after establishing this outer setting, the narrative switches to yet another setting within the first one, a Show Within a Show with its own, separate cast. The characters from this Show Within a Show, due to some Applied Phlebotinum, manage to find their way out to the first setting and meet the characters we were introduced to there. The intended effect is to make the audience believe that the characters have broken through the Fourth Wall and entered your reality. Stories with these plots are popular because of Deconstruction and Lampshade Hanging jokes, as well as Self-Deprecation humour. Sometimes it's a form of raising the stakes, as at least two worlds may now be in trouble. Very similar to Real-World Episode, where the initial characters we're introduced to leave their setting and find their home is a Show Within a Show. Using either trope implies that all fiction is real somewhere and can be paired with a "Reading Is Cool" Aesop. Compare Mage in Manhattan (where a powerful villain from another world, but not always another fiction, comes to assault the world of the audience), Up the Real Rabbit Hole (where the "topmost" universe is recognized as the "real" one), Tomato Surprise (where we learn the protagonists are not what we expected them to be), and Tulpa and Dream People, where imaginary beings take on a physical existence. Contrast Trapped in TV Land (character is sucked inside a Show Within a Show). |

Thursday Next has various characters traveling both ways. Most notable is Something Rotten, where Thursday explains the real world's lack of certain tropes to Hamlet, and where Intergalactic Emperor Zhark threatens his own author with a laser when it sounds like he'll be Killed Off for Real. In the 6th book, the written Thursday enters the real world and, for the first time, has to experience breathing, a heartbeat, learning to walk and turn while walking, and the fact that some things happen for absolutely no reason. | |

X-Men: Longshot is from the Mojoverse, which is sort of like the background of TV land: this is where the characters are created (to be exploited by the sometimes-hilarious-sometimes-Nightmare Fuel Evil Overlord/media mogul Mojo.) Longshot has incredibly good luck only so long as his motives are absolutely pure, and, like all denizens of the Mojoverse, has Four Fingered Hands. Also from the Mojoverse are the X-Babies, created when the actual X-Men were believed dead. (They really were just hiding, though.) They're mischievous (and, in more recent incarnations, chibi) versions of the X-Men - and fully powered. (So much so that the Mojoverse suffered The End of the World as We Know It at the hands of an X-Baby version of Apocalypse. It got better.) It seems the Mojoverse is less about poking fun at Comic Book Tropes and Animation Tropes and more about casting and Executive Meddling. |

The Simpsons: In one "Treehouse of Horror" episode, Bart and Lisa are sucked into an Itchy and Scratchy cartoon by a magic remote. They manage to escape, but Itchy and Scratchy follow... only to find that the "real world" is quite different from a cartoon world — for example, pets with all their bits aren't very tolerated. Another "Treehouse of Horror" episode ends with Homer being teleported to the real world with no visible means of returning. Thank goodness for the healing power side of Status Quo Is God and Canon Discontinuity. |

Darkwing Duck: "Flim Flam" has Tuskernini use a device to bring movie villains to life. This includes a zombie with a chainsaw, an alien, a bandit from the Wild West, a pirate captain, a zany cartoon ape and giant King Kong-like gorilla. One episode has the title character and Psycho Electro Megavolt transported to the "real world" by means of a Trapped in TV Land device made by Megavolt. It turns out that the guy who owns the rights to Darkwing Duck gets his ideas by means of a radio helmet that is tuned to Darkwing's world. The episode also dishes up some nice Lampshade Hangings and has a Shout-Out to Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers when the helmet gets rewired by the cartoons' return trip. |

Skylanders has a gimmick involving actual toys of the characters, having the player place the toys on a "portal" peripheral to use them in the game. Storywise, the characters were banished from the Skylands and into our world by the the evil Portal Master Kaos, being frozen into little figures in the process, and the player uses the portal to send them back home. | |

He decides to bring her into the real world, and eventually does so with a Magikoopa's wand.

SCP Foundation: SCP-1304 puts the setting's typically creepy spin on this. It's a violent sacrifice ritual where, if one writes a book where a character has it done to them, soon after publication the victim will get reincarnated as a human in the real world. They won't have memories of their fictional past, but their life will mirror that in the novel, as closely as reality allows. One version of SCP-001 has the Foundation attempting to do this... so they can kill the writers and control their own destiny. Only thing stopping them is that they're not quite sure if it would cause a Class X-4 for them. SCP-2591 is a character from an Italian opera that was pulled into reality by Prometheus Labs. As said opera was never finished, he was trapped in a frozen state until he was naturally mummified alive. Word of God says that Prometheus' earlier attempt resulted in a cartoon character from another reality altogether escaping into their world, where it was eventually caught by the Foundation and contained as SCP-2337. SCP-3166 is an animate Garfield costume that was apparently created by the comic character becoming self-aware. |

In the first season of Meta Runner, Theo, the protagonist of the platformer game Ultra Jump Mania, is unintentionally brought into the real world with the prototype super-technology in Tari's arm. The second half of the season follows an attempt by the heroes to get him back into his original cartridge. He does get out of the real world... but it doesn't end well, as his cartridge ends up getting crushed by Lucks, who proceeds to hold him hostage as collateral, and ends up spending the next season entirely in the digital world. | |

Sam & Max: Freelance Police: In "It's Dangly Deever Time", the pair bring a character from an old kid's TV show to reality (the titular Dangly Deever, an obvious parody of Howdy Doody). In this case, however, the problem wasn't the character — for some reason, this also created a murderous evil duplicate. The good Deever ended up having to go back too for Sam and Max to be able to get rid of the evil one. | |

Universal Monsters: A combination of lightning and a holographic projector releases characters from the six films. Each book features, respectively: Count Dracula (disguised as a normal human); Larry Talbot's wolf man (incarnated through Don Earl Abernathy after he's bitten by another Wolf Man), Bela the gypsy's wolf man (incarnated through John Winokea and later Deputy Chad Barnes), and his mother Maleva (incarnated through Wilma Winokea); Herr Frankenstein, Fritz and the Creature they made; Imhotep (in his guise as Ardeth Bey) and Anck-Su-Namun; The Gill Man and Dr. Mark Williams; Book 6 features the Bride of Frankenstein (or rather, a new incarnation made from the corpse of Megan McMahan), Dr. Pretorius and his chief henchman Karl, along with Dr. Pretorius's tiny homunculi and a returned Herr Henry Frankenstein (with his Bride of Frankenstein personality)... plus the other returning monsters: Dracula, Deputy Chad Barnes (who starts turning into Larry Talbot's Wolf Man again before his mother stops him via a special dreamcatcher), the Frankenstein Monster, Ardeth Bey/Imhotep and the Gill Man. The ending confirms that the Invisible Man is also loose, while the Phantom of the Opera was likely freed as well. |

Stay Tooned! inverts this trope. The player's remote (with the push of a Big Red Button) allows several cartoon characters to escape the TV, but in the process also turns the entire apartment building into cartoon form. Naturally, the toons steal the remote, and the game's goal is to find it and send them back home. | |

While trying to find or avoid one another, they deal with over-eager convention-goers, fans dressed up like them, and being forced to sit on a panel regarding their cartoon. In a last laugh move, at the end of the segment Freakazoid informs several cast members with minimal screen time that, due to budget cuts, they've been reduced to washing his car. | |

Ayakashi Triangle: Snegurochka is a Russian ayakashi that came from a picture book where she's the main character. The series is somewhat vague whether Rochka was created in the book or is a Tulpa that moved into it, but regardless she considered it her previous home and acts as if the other major character (Ded Moroz) is real, even though she knows he'd be fictional unless he also became an ayakashi. | |

In DuckTales (2017), Darkwing Duck is an in-universe series with the titular hero portrayed by Jim Starling, before Drake Mallard becomes the real-life Darkwing Duck. In the episode "Let's Get Dangerous", when mad scientist Taurus Bulba's villainous nature is revealed, he uses the dimensional-portal known as the Ramrod to pull four Darkwing Duck villains (Megavolt, Quackerjack, Liquidator, and Bushroot) from the tv show's world to fight for him as his Fearsome Four. | |

In Wet Magic, the tunnel that leads to the Merkingdom is full of magic books whose characters can be brought to life by opening them to the right page. The Under Folk send Bookworms in to let unpleasant characters out, and the Merkingdom is attacked by a horde that includes both fictional villains and the protagonists of books like Eric, or Little by Little and Elsie Or Like A Little Candle. The protagonists let the heroes out of the books to fight them. | |

In Red Dwarf: Back to Earth, the crew try to jump to another dimension, and seemingly end up in a reality where Red Dwarf is a TV show. Interestingly, it's made quite clear this isn't our world; it's a reality where Seasons IX and X were made, and the series still has loads of Merch available. (Because they don't end up in "our" world, this doesn't quite count as a Real-World Episode.) | |

In Haunted Junction the ghost of a mangaka who worked himself to death conjures up his comics characters: giant robot warriors, magical girls and, worst of all, some mind-numbingly boring historical characters from an educational comic he made. | |

Mutants & Masterminds: Within the Freedom City setting, the Toon Gang is made up of miniature cartoon gangster brought to life by one of Doc Otaku's devices and who refuse to go back. In the mini-campaign "Into the Idiot Box", the team gets sucked into a TV dimension by a bored cosmic-powered child, Quirk. He forces them to act out his favourite shows in character, one of which is an 80s family sitcom akin to ALF, wherein the family features a radical cartoon jaguar, Jaxxer, who came out of their TV and whom they have to keep a secret (essentially having him come from a show within a show within a show). One of the challenges to the players involves them trying to hide Jaxxer from outsiders or risk incurring Quirk's wrath for going off-script. |

The Final Girls involves a Trapped in Slasher Horror Movieland of a movie called Camp Bloodbath. Several of Camp Bloodbath's characters learn eventually that they're in a movie from those that came in from "the real world"; Nancy in particular professes a desire to be a refugee once she realizes that she's scripted to get horrifically murdered and will never get to grow up to do important things. | |

Daffy Duck and Porky Pig Meet the Groovie Goolies: This trope is invoked by the Groovie Goolies in a memorable if freaky sequence. The bratty Hauntleroy has stolen Wolfie's guitar and flees into 'Mad Mirror Land', where all four characters (including Drac and Frankie) get turned into live-action versions, still operating by cartoon laws, for the most part. It was originally part of a seriously weird, not-so-hot crossover with the Looney Tunes, and then was re-edited for syndication as a separate episode. | |

Phantasy Star Online 2: Aika is this. It's just not readily apparent given that she has a cover story involving claiming to be a student from overseas and she otherwise blends in with the rest of the cast. There's also a little playing in that she can move between her home dimension and Earth's dimension at will, which allows her to take care of a universe-ending threat that also found its way outside of her home dimension. | |

The Simpsons: One storyline involves Kang and Kodos bringing Itchy and Scratchy into the real world, as the two were worshipped as gods on Rigel IV. To stop them, Bart pointed a camcorder at a Radioactive Man comic and used the aliens' device to make his favorite superhero real. The Simpsons Futurama Crossover Crisis: The second miniseries focuses on the Simpsons characters being pulled out of a comic book into the Futurama world. Later on, every fictional character from every book ever written are pulled out of their books as well. |

Book 6 features the Bride of Frankenstein (or rather, a new incarnation made from the corpse of Megan McMahan), Dr. Pretorius and his chief henchman Karl, along with Dr. Pretorius's tiny homunculi and a returned Herr Henry Frankenstein (with his Bride of Frankenstein personality)... plus the other returning monsters: Dracula, Deputy Chad Barnes (who starts turning into Larry Talbot's Wolf Man again before his mother stops him via a special dreamcatcher), the Frankenstein Monster, Ardeth Bey/Imhotep and the Gill Man. The ending confirms that the Invisible Man is also loose, while the Phantom of the Opera was likely freed as well. | |

Star Trek: Used a couple times in the various series. This was always done by having simulations of famous people (fictional and real) from the holodeck. One notable episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, "Elementary, Dear Data" has a simulation of Professor Moriarty, who ends up becoming self aware and trying to find a way out of the simulation. A few seasons later, he tries it again in "Ship in a Bottle". | |

The DCU: Earth-Prime is the corner of the multiverse standing in for the real world, where superheroes are fiction. Superman and The Flash traveled there (here?) with some frequency, and it's where Superboy-Prime is from. Justice League: One story arc features a villain called the Queen of Fables, who can manifest any fictional character into the real world. She herself started off as an evil sorceress who got Trapped in TV Land (a magical story book). This, we are told, made her fictional, and since fictional things are per definition not true, her reign of terror in Dung Ages Europe never happened. |

Barbie's issues arise from her going through Gloria’s thoughts, and Weird Barbie is the way she is because the girl who played with her in the real world essentially defaced her. Barbie and Ken both have some issues adjusting to the imperfect real world but learn different lessons from it: While Barbie learns about the issues real women face while she helps her real-world family, Ken discovers the concept of the patriarchy and brings it back to Barbieland, turning it into a male chauvinist society and influencing the success of Ken Mojo Dojo Houses and a Ken film in the real world. | |

Earth-Prime is the corner of the multiverse standing in for the real world, where superheroes are fiction. Superman and The Flash traveled there (here?) with some frequency, and it's where Superboy-Prime is from. | |

In The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids, the Librarians of the Library are sentient projections of iconic fictional characters, such as Robin Hood or Jack Pumpkinhead. This is specifically stated to be a different phenomenon to the fact that everything that's fictional in a given universe will, due to the Multiverse being infinite, also happen to be real in a different universe or seven. When meeting the Library's Jack Pumpkinhead, Century Smith tells him that he actually met the "real" Jack in the actual Land of Oz, which Pumpkinhead finds quite fascinating, asking to know more about his "model". | |

Xanadu (Storyverse): This is largely how Strangers, people whose personalities were completely overwritten by those of the fictional characters that they were dressed as and transformed into, perceive themselves. Most have full memories of their fictional lives, and consider themselves to have been pulled from their worlds and dropped into a strange one where their lives and adventures are described in comics, books, and movies. | |

Snooper and Blabber: In "The Lion Is Busy", the detectives are chasing a loose mountain lion (an early version of Snagglepuss) into an adventurer's club. As they come across a line of adventurers in safari gear and pith helmets, Snooper asks if any of these "fugitives from a late, late show" has seen the lion. | |

In Monster!, the title monster is the villain of its own franchise of B-Movies. However, a curse placed on the town somehow resulted in it (and apparently at some point its sister as well) becoming real and attacking the town every three years in a perpetual cycle. In doing so, it also causes the town to run on monster movie rules for the duration of its time loose. However, it isn't fully free from the movie. In order to do that, it has to actually win and destroy the town. | |

Hi Honey, I'm Home! is based around a 1950s sitcom family whose show was canceled and who move next door to a fan to await being put back on the air. Additionally, a series Couch Gag would have a different classic tv character come visit Honey, for example in one episode Ann B. Davis drops in as Alice Nelson. | |

In Phantasy Star Online 2, you are this. Thanks to a video game made by Earthlings connecting Earth to the home dimension of the Player Character and pals, you are able to use the video game, Phantasy Star Online 2, to travel to Earth. Of course, your job there is strictly business, since most time spent there involves beating the crap out of evil manifestations of Earthling animate and inanimate objects in Tokyo. | |

The Librarians 2014: The second season introduces the concept of Fictionals, which are fictional characters brought into the real world either with a spell, or, more rarely, by their sheer popularity being enough to literally bring them up off the page. In any case, they remain bound by the rules of their story, and cannot be killed in any way unbefitting of their character. The main villains of the season happen to be two evil ones – Shakespeare's Prospero and Moriarty. In fact, the former is unique in that he's actually possessing the body of the Bard himself, borne of Shakespeare's angst over his waning popularity and a magical quill. | |

Arabela: Not only do characters and villains from the Fairy Tale reality enter the Real World and spread chaos there with their magic and strange ways, the sorcerous villains even take modern inventions (and ideas), like cars, back into their own reality which runs on fairy tale tropes, install themselves as new rulers, and start a reign of tyranny by banning, on pain of death, all things magical, including racism against non-human "magical" races. With hilarious results. | |
