Parodies make fun of dramas, comedies, action, romance and every other genre imaginable. But what about other parodies? Yup. They mock those too. These targeted spoofs, like all works, conform to certain rules and vary in quality, creating room for other works to give them a taste of their own medicine. For cases when a spoof doesn't realize that its source material is a spoof, see Spoofed the Ironic Film Seriously. When the spoof unwittingly lifts a joke directly from the source spoof, it's a Redundant Parody. |

The Simpsons have taken several shots at MAD: "The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson" featured a peek inside the MAD offices. A group of writers tries to come up with a witty name for an Everybody Loves Raymond spoof. "How about Everybody Hates Raymond?" suggests one writer, to unanimous applause. In "Bart of Darkness", Bart reads a MAD strip on "The Lighter Side of Hippies" and comments "They don't care whose toes they step on!" In "New Kids on the Blechh", the MAD parody of Party Posse consists entirely of cheap Punny Names like Smellson. |

Mr. Show has a sketch including a Weird Al Yankovic expy parodying a current event by inserting a lame, food-based pun. | |

The first Austin Powers films were spoofs of spy films, particularly James Bond. The third installment just mocked its own predecessors — movies that were themselves parodies. | |

Cracked capped its analysis of the movies with an insulting, fake movie trailer transcript for a future installment: Vampire Movie. This proved eerily prescient; Seltzer and Friedberg's next film turned out to be Vampires Suck. Heck, the trailer narration even used the same pun as Vampires Suck's title. Not to mention the prediction that a theoretical Seltzer and Friedberg Twilight spoof, despite inevitably being horrible, would also make money nonetheless.note Vampires Suck made back four times its budget at the box office. | |

Johnny Test: Dark Vegan and the episode he debuted in, "Johnny Test in Outer Space", were parodies of Dark Helmet and Spaceballs respectively, which in turn were parodies of Darth Vader and Star Wars | |

Phelous has done this a few times on April Fools' Day. The first time, he did a parody review of a parody series he starred in called Mortal Komedy. He mocked the series' meta jokes and terrible fight choreography. In 2015, he mocked his review of Mac and Me for its awkward joke deliveries. Seven years later, he made a review of that review. | |

David Brent of The Office (UK) parodies the tendency for British mimics to spoof comic personas like Dame Edna. Brent fancies himself a genius comedian; his reliance on riffing on these kinds of characters is a pretty good clue that ultimately he has nothing. | |

30 Rock: Weird Al's many food-related parodies got some fun poked at them in an episode where all of Jenna's serious songs were "parodied" by someone who simply replaced the lyrics with names of food. | |

Dramatic Dream Team is a merciless parody of American professional wrestling(sometimes Mexicans get a pass because of some of its alumni had a good relationship with CMLL), and that includes parts of American pro wrestling that were already self parody, such as the Chicago hot potato title belt that was "awarded" to losers, which DDT parodied with "The King Of Dark" title belt, which in addition to that wasn't even allowed outside of dark matches, dooming the hapless "champions" to obscurity. | |

The Saturday Night Live sketches from The '80s where Joe Piscopo parodied David Letterman, since Letterman's edition of Late Night was already a send-up of talk show and variety show conventions. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series frequently has lines taken directly from the 4Kids Entertainment Yu-Gi-Oh! dub, sometimes lampshaded with "Actual 4Kids Dialogue," and sometimes not. Although it seems like a standard Abridged Series practice to mock bad dialogue, 4Kids themselves frequently inserted metacommentary and self-parody into the series. LittleKuriboh himself called the writers "very meta and very funny." | |
