An episode of a non-superhero show in which the characters temporarily gain superpowers and/or the urge to dress up in colored spandex and fight crime. The characters in question may normally be non-powered, or they may have already had extraordinary abilities that they've never before referred to as superpowers. Depending on the nature of the show's universe, this may occur "for real," as a dream or fantasy, or completely out-of-continuity, but in any case it involves familiar characters wearing capes, kicking ass, and going by (possibly parodic) Something Person names. May include a stock parody fight scene referencing The '60s' Batman (1966) series. A Sub-Trope of Formula-Breaking Episode. The fanfic equivalent of this trope is the Super Fic, which usually implies a more permanent change in the characters and their setting. |

One episode of Let's Go! Tamagotchi is about Chamametchi being asked to watch over the house when her mother goes away. She opens her calculator and transforms Magical Girl-style into "Chama Girl" to save the town, and her brother Mametchi, from a giant Beartchi. This is All Just a Dream, though. | |

Dexter had an episode in which Dexter imagined his life as a super hero (or super villain, he wasn't quite sure). As one would imagine, it was done in the same horrifyingly psychotic way as everything else in the show. | |

In the Weird Science episode, "Rock Hard Chett," Chett uses his new invulnerability to become a superhero. When the wish wears off, he gets shot during a bank heist (though Lisa manages to bring him back to life just as quickly). Wyatt suggests just walking away, but Chett goes back in to save the day despite losing his powers. (He manages to talk the robbers down by convincing them their guns have already failed to stop him.) | |

Quite common in the comics based on The Simpsons. Either using Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl, having Bart be the Bartman character he dressed as in "Three Men and A Comic Book" or comic book within a show character, Radioactive Man. One story even had an Alliance of Alternates between Bartman, Stretch Dude and Cupcake Kid (Pie Man's sidekick from the last scene of "Simple Simpson"), and another had the characters parodying Watchmen. | |

In the Dinosaurs episode, "Earl, Don't Be A Hero", Earl gets a promotion to toxic waste supervisor at the WeSaySo corporation. Exposure to toxic waste gives Earl the abilities to fly, have heat vision, and accurately guess peoples' weight. Earl becomes a superhero named Captain Impressive and earns the respect of Baby. When B.P. Richfield finds out about Earl's superpowers, he points out that Earl's employment contract he signed (which he was told he didn't have to read) states that if any employee obtains superpowers, the heroes will become the property of WeSaySo, and Earl is forced into putting promoting the company as Captain Impressive over saving the world. Richfield makes Earl the host of a home shopping show that sells dangerous products associated with Captain Impressive. When Baby calls in to order a dangerous product, Earl reveals his identity, gives up being a superhero and takes a shower. In the end, Earl explains to Baby that parents are real heroes, because even though they don't have super powers, they do a lot of hard work to care for their kids. | |

One of the possible ideas for a fifth season of Blackadder would have been called Batadder and would have had Blackadder and Baldrick as heroes based on Batman and Robin. The concept was reused for the Comic Relief sketch, Spider-Plant Man. Where Rowan Atkinson played the titular hero and Baldrick's actor played Robin. |

Doctor Who has a Christmas Special called "The Return of Doctor Mysterio", where a New York kid accidentally ingests an alien wish-granting artifact, which, coupled with his obsession with comic books, gives him Flying Brick powers. Year later, the Doctor returns to New York and discovers the existence of the Ghost, a masked superhero clearly based on Superman. The Doctor immediately recognizes him as Grant, the kid he met that night, who works as a mild-mannered nanny for his childhood crush, a reporter with an obsession for the Ghost. While Grant/Ghost isn't mentioned in later episodes, there is a comic book, where the Doctor works with him again. The Second Doctor met a fictional comic book superhero called The Karkus in "The Mind Robber" while in The Land of Fiction, he was from a comic from Zoe's timeline. |

While Lois & Clark was a superhero series, Lois Lane was most definitely not a superhero — except for one episode where she got Superman's powers and became Ultra Woman. | |

Dragon Ball Z's Great Saiyaman, which is Not-So-Ordinary High-School Student Gohan's superhero identity. Played for Laughs, as neither criminals nor cops find his outlandish getup and antics very impressive, and his Paper-Thin Disguise does not fool anyone for long. | |

The "Cape Fear" storyline in Resurrection Man started with Mitch in a virtual world created by his subconscious, in which he was a Silver Age caped superhero, and all the people who had tried to kill him were costumed supervillains. He was still wearing the costume from this scenario when Superman invited him to join the Justice League. He eventually decided it wasn't for him. | |
