The call letters of a television or radio station can sometimes spell out funny names, often beginning with either "W" or "K" (assigned to American stations east and west of the Mississippi River respectivelynote with a few exceptions grandfathered in). This trope applies to stations in fictional media where call letters spell something humorous. If the name is a slight variation (or Take That!) to a real station, it may overlap with Writing Around Trademarks. May also overlap with Meaningful Name, if the call sign describes the content of the station. Subtrope of Punny Name. See also Fun with Acronyms and Alphabet News Network. If you were looking for punny weapon names, take a look at A.K.A.-47. |

The Simpsons: Springfield's talk station is KBBL (KBabble). In the Latin American translation of "The Joy of Sect", once the Movementarians employ lawyers to take over KBBL in the middle of an expose by Kent Brockman, the line of Brockman appreciating the Leader being his new boss was changed from him saying "Leader is the owner of KBBL" to "Leader is the owner of K-LLE-C" ("callese", "shut up") showing even more the Orwellian power of the cult. The episode "Colonel Homer" features the country station KUDD ("Don't touch that dial! You've got KUDD (cud) on it!") Another episode had a station called WKOMA (or coma), which described their station as having sedate and relaxed music (which is apparently what it feels like to be in one). |

In Duke Nukem 3D, one level is set on a radio station named KTIT. Duke, being Duke, immediately puns "tits" from the name. | |

Frasier: The title characters works at KACL, which is meaningless in-universe but refers to series creators David Angel, Peter Casey and David Lee. Several episodes mention a rival station that uses the letters KPXY and is colloquially referred to as "The Mighty Pixie". In "The Late Dr. Crane", the TV station that mistakenly reports Frasier as dead is named KYLL. |

World's Dumbest.... Anytime the show has a skit involving a news or radio station, inevitably, the call letters will be WDUM. | |

WKRP in Cincinnati has WKRP itself - in-universe it's a homophone for "carp" but it's can also be read as "crap" - plus their crosstown rivals WPIG, "those swine!" note In 1979,there was an actual WKRP, in Dallas, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta. | |
