comment
This is when characters are unable to bear the stupidity of a script, usually that of their own show, and they outright mock it (Breaking the Fourth Wall if it is their show). This is often expressed in the form of asking who wrote that script.
If the creators of the show respond to the criticism by tormenting the characters, it's Author's Retaliation.
Keep in mind that in order to qualify as true to this trope, it has to be done In-Universe about its own work or another work, often a Show Within a Show (expect it to be done with Stylistic Suck) or an actually existing work (the latter might even involve a "Not Making This Up" Disclaimer, and may or may not be an Affectionate Parody). This doesn't count if it's just an audience reaction.
A Sister Trope to Stylistic Suck and Better than a Bare Bulb. Compare Self-Deprecation, Self-Parody, Take That!, Who Would Want to Watch Us?, and Writers Suck. Throwing Out the Script can overlap.

DEATH BATTLE!:
Pretty much Boomstick's reaction in "Sasuke vs. Hiei" when he learns about the convoluted process of gaining the Eternal Mangeky� Sharingan. For those that don't know. Find someone that also has the Mangeky� Sharingan, remove them, then replace your eyes with them.
"Madara vs. Aizen": The extremely complex plan Madara set up cast the Infinite Tsukoyomi eventually gets this response from Boomstick. It starts with concern over Wiz's rapid-fire recitation of Madara giving up the Rinnegan and Sharingan and ends with him blacking out on the floor.
"Gogeta vs. Vegito": After Boomstick questions if Fu is really his name, Wiz gives Boomstick... more than what he wanted.
"Cole MacGrath vs. Alex Mercer": Throughout the episode, it revealed that both Wiz and Boomstick are going off of a script that was written in 2013 and was thrown in the trash. Boomstick is utterly flabbergasted by why it was written in the first place, considering it has a lot of outdated jokes, references and slang (including an evil version of Boomstick that comes out of nowhere and says "awesomesauce").

Shawn Michaels would later ask this in 2007 after a particularly confusing DX promo. Trips retorted with something along the lines of "I don't know, they're all on strike!" Ironically, the WWE isn't unionized, so it couldn't actually go on strike.

A rather common trope in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia given primarily to Charlie's rather tenuous grasp on literacy. Perhaps the most prominent example is the speech he writes for Dennis when the latter is running for city comptroller, which Dennis only reads out of frustration to prove his point.

The Simpsons:
Krusty, when he is introducing himself with Brooke Shields for the cartoon awards during "The Front", ends up getting incensed about a joke in his opening line.
Also, in the same episode, Krusty mentioned this in regards to the Itchy and Scratchy episode "Dazed and Contused", which basically had Itchy tapping Scratchy's head with a mallet repeatedly, then saying "Kids, say no to drugs!"
And when he's performing King Lear at the dinner theater in "Guess Who's Coming to Criticize Dinner?":
And also when performing Il Pagliacci in Rome in "The Italian Bob":
And, in "Children of a Lesser Clod":
Mr. Burns gets one of these moments in "The Mansion Family", when he wins an award for Oldest Man in Springfield (the previous winner has just died via Kiss of Death from Britney Spears), and tries to pass off the guy's written speech as his own:
Sideshow Bob said the way his evil plans in "Sideshow Bob's Last Gleaming" ended is "so formulaic, it could have spewed from the powerbook of the laziest Hollywood hack!"
Happens to Kent Brockman in "Faith Off", where the word "fever" is used over and over again in the newscast because the script writer, Brockman's nephew, had lost his thesaurus and couldn't think of any better descriptions.
When Selma starts going through menopause in "Goo Goo Gai Pan" the Simpsons family is shown a video, narrated by Robert Wagner, explaining what menopause is.
In "Behind The Laughter", it's said that the Running Gag of Homer strangling Bart started out of frustration from Homer's scripts.

Looney Tunes:
In the cartoon "(blooper) Bunny!", Daffy Duck is seen doing a mini-rant while going over his script. The higher-ups at Warner Bros. actually objected to the line, which caused the short to be withheld for six years.
In "A Star Is Bored", after spending most of the cartoon as Bugs Bunny's unwilling movie stunt double, Daffy gets to star in a movie of his own. His script reads, "I wonder where all the hunters are today?" When they start shooting the movie, Daffy says his line dramatically — after which a group of hunters all pop out and bombard him with gunfire. After that....
In "Duck Amuck", Daffy continually interacts with the animator, who repeatedly draws him in silly or embarrassing ways. At the end, he shouts, "WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS?! I DEMAND THAT YOU SHOW YOURSELF!" The camera pulls out to reveal that Bugs Bunny is the animator.

In a deliciously meta example from an Adventures in Odyssey blooper reel, Connie has a Who Writes This Crap moment where she comments that she feels like she's in a cheesy sitcom plot, at which point her voice actress breaks character and rips up the script, calling the line terrible and refusing to do a second take of it, effectively having a real-life Who Writes This Crap moment about an in-universe one. The sitcom comment is ultimately not in the finished episode.

Muppet Treasure Island
In the middle of the "Cabin Fever" musical number, the following exchange occurs:
As the ship is leaving dock, Statler and Waldorf (serving as the ship's figureheads) commiserate about their cheap berths — but it could be worse, at least they aren't in the audience! "Dohohohoho!"

Used subtly in Community, though it's more "We can't possibly be a TV show because things suck this bad." When Jeff tells the Genre Savvy Abed to realize the difference between reality and stories, and that they're not part of a sit-com, Abed replies;

Taz-Mania: Francis X. Bushlad gets an epic one in one episode, berating the writers for the All Just a Dream ending and pointing out the unfired Chekhov's Gun of the 16 ton weight that had been dangling over the characters' heads for most the episode. This proves unwise.

At the end of Dragon Age: Inquisition, Varric brings up writing a book recalling the events of the game, to be titled All This Shit Is Weird. He can be called out on the title, and when he actually does publish the book in Trespasser, Cassandra reads it out loud during the rolling credits, having a blast at the exaggerated characters and critiquing the more inane lines. The other characters also give him a lot of ribbing about his previous book, which is, of course, the previous installment. This is mostly used as a series of Discontinuity Nod jokes about that entry's eccentricities and plot holes.
Speaking of which, Cassandra has a similar reaction to Varric's tale of Hawke and how powerful s/he is. Once More, with Clarity shows that, aside from how Bethany is portrayed with a more buxom figure and a few other details, that's what really happened.

Fate Revelation Online:
The second Alley Cat Alliance non-canon sequence features the three female characters dressed up as Playboy bunny girls. They quickly fall into lamenting how the hack of a writer they have to put up with could only come up with one gag and falls back on cheesecake to cover for the weak metahumor. The narration takes offense.
On the canon side, players are often unimpressed with the writing of quests, especially the minor Fetch Quests that are clearly just there to provide players with something to do rather than actually advancing any larger story. Usually, this is because the quests are written by an AI, so it can be a little hit or miss. However, sometimes it's because the players missed a quest flag somewhere that would have tied it into the larger story. At one point, the girls end up in an annoying Chain of Deals when they want a random easy quest. They run into a dead-end when the final quest NPC is missing, and just give up. If they had pushed harder, they would have discovered that the missing Floor Boss had eaten her.

In the Harry Potter fic Made with Our Love, the author mocks several fanfic sub-genres/tropes, most notably Foe Yay Shipping and Mister Seahorse, through Harry doing something that has become something of a cliché within those sub-genres. In the twist ending, it turns out he'd done it as a dare, and Harry admits that he'd gotten his idea for it from "some piece of crap on the internet."

Animaniacs:
Somewhat referred to in the theme song... "The writers flipped, we have no script / why bother to rehearse?" Sung while they show a bunch of drooling maniacs playing with paper and pencils, presumably the very ones who do Write This Crap. One of them is Shakespeare. Stereotypical clothing and everything.
More specifically, in one cartoon Slappy asks Skippy why he's delivering bad dialogue. He says that's what's in the script, to which she reminds him that scripts are only good for lining the bottom of bird cages.
In "Guardin' the Garden", Slappy delivers a more subtle critique of the script:
Slappy has also actively refused to perform a script as written on multiple occasions. In "Baghdad Cafe," she Rage Quits halfway through. In "Nutcracker Slappy," she tears up the script in front of the unfortunate director's face and does something completely different for the rest of the short.
One interstitial was a Shout-Out to Orson Welles' frozen pea meltdown. The Brain is brought in to do a voiceover but he becomes more and more annoyed at the poor quality of the copy he's supposed to read.
The debut episode of Freakazoid! has a song about the show done to the Animaniacs theme:

The Muppet Show:
Happens rather regularly...
How about this one...
Another example in one of the ballroom sketches:
Milton Berle's guest appearance, in the closing number ("Top Banana"), had him demanding to know whether he had to finish a particular terrible joke Fozzie had put in the script. He did.
In one episode, Sam does a recitation of The Ant and the Grasshopper. While it goes the way the story usually goes, the ending goes Off the Rails when the Grasshopper drives off to Florida for the winter and the Ant is unceremoniously stepped on, with Sam appalled at the change to the ending.
In one Muppet News Flash, after an interview with a woman who's trying to break the world record for the most jumps in a row (motivating herself by standing on a hot plate), the Newsman calls someone to ask "Where do we get these nuts?" In many other sketches, while he doesn't say it aloud, his expression just screams the trope name.

DuckTales (2017): In the episode "Storkules in Duckburg!", Louie films a Kitschy Local Commercial for Harp-B-Gone (his latest Get-Rich-Quick Scheme). The commercial stars Webby and Huey as a father and mother respectively, with Storkules as their baby child. Huey is visibly disinterested the whole way through, and briefly breaks character after his first line to ask "Who wrote this?"

The first level of Emogame has a boss battle against Creed. Before the fight, Scott Stapp explains that he and his band were literally formed from the shit of Eddie Vedder, at which the player character remarks that at least they know they suck. Then Scott elaborates, saying that they have held onto that shit and used it to build an attack helicopter, and now they must kill you because you know their secret. Your response is "God, this plot is getting worse and worse."

In the Dragon Ball Z Abridged version of Dragon Ball Z: Super Android 13!, near the end of the movie there's a Running Gag of The Dukes of Hazzard-style freeze frames ("And that's when the Saiyan prince realized that when you grab the bull by its horns, you get taken for a ride.") The third of these (which involves Piccolo suplexing Android 13) is so lame that the narrator quits and walks out of the studio. The gag returns when Android 13 is destroyed by Goku, this time with a new narrator, but the writing is so clumsy that he immediately gets frustrated and says Team Four Star just stopped trying after Season 2. This is even funnier if you realize that the second narrator is Christopher Sabat, the voice director of the official Dragon Ball dubs as well as the voice of Vegeta, Piccolo, and other characters.

Probably the instance that started it all in animation is the 1937 Porky Pig cartoon "Porky's Duck Hunt," where Porky sends his dog to retrieve the duck, he's ostensibly shot, but the duck throws the dog back on land. Porky takes out a notepad, studies it for a second, then exclaims "Hey! That wasn't in the script!"

Stargate SG-1:
Pretty much the point of "Wormhole X-Treme" is to give SG-1 and Co. a chance to say this. A good example is someone proposing that the third shot from a Zat Gun vaporizes its target (a retconned plot point from the early seasons) only to have a TV writer retort that that's "the stupidest thing [he's] ever heard".
In "Citizen Joe", a barber can see Jack O'Neill's life, which is used to mock some of their old episodes, particularly "Hathor", as well as some of the more complicated story points.
The show also takes potshots at Roland Emmerich — writer of the original Stargate film — by mocking his newer movies.

The Strategy Guide in Sword Art Online Abridged is chock full of this when it is read in Episode 2 on how to beat the Aincrad Dungeon Floor Bosses with most of the strategies involving sending in annoying weaker players to die to the bosses in order to whittle down their health: what constituted as "Weaker Players" are Gold-Beggars, Conversation-Hijackers, and "Players who ask Female Players for pics of their boobs". The fact that the strategy guide even exists shows that the Perma-Death feature that Sword Art Online has right now wasn't supposed to be a final part of the game.

The actors on the Show Within a Show would sometimes stop in the middle of dialogue to object to a particularly corny gag, until Jack pressured them to go through with it.

Never Give a Sucker an Even Break: A movie producer is appalled at the completely crazy script that W. C. Fields brings to his office. That script is acted out onscreen and is nearly half the movie.

Often happens in A Bit of Fry and Laurie, including one shopkeeper sketch where Hugh complains that Stephen's increasing surrealism in these sketches is just to hide the fact they never have an ending. Inverted with a sketch set in a hospital which is repeatedly disrupted by Hugh (in a female nurse's uniform) angrily insisting to camera that there's nothing wrong with setting a sketch in a hospital, whatever the critics say.

Kaeloo:
Done very subtly in the episode "Let's Play Paranormal Stuff":
The entire plot of Episode 91 revolves around Kaeloo, Stumpy, Quack Quack and Mr. Cat deciding to re-dub older episodes of the show because they think they were poorly written.
In the season 4 finale, the characters show the audience how an episode of Kaeloo is typically made. When they get to the part about voice actors recording lines, Mr. Cat wonders out loud what "stupid things" the writers are going to make him say this time.

When Jobby the Hong reviewed the Masterpiece Beast Wars Megatron figure, he got David Kaye to record several lines in the character's voice. Nothing out of the ordinary happened until late in the review where Kaye's script requested for him to say "putitinmyass". Kaye was left speechless for a moment before breaking character and saying "I can't... No... I just can't." The end of the review has Kaye give the closing narration before being shown the line in the script again and shouting "I'M NOT SAYING IT!".

In "A Star Is Bored", after spending most of the cartoon as Bugs Bunny's unwilling movie stunt double, Daffy gets to star in a movie of his own. His script reads, "I wonder where all the hunters are today?" When they start shooting the movie, Daffy says his line dramatically — after which a group of hunters all pop out and bombard him with gunfire. After that....

A potential example occurred in the fifth season finale of Lost: after leading the Others to the statue where Jacob lives, Richard suddenly claims that only Locke (the leader) can speak to Jacob when Locke asks if both he and Ben can go inside. Locke angrily accuses Richard of simply making things up as he goes along. This is likely a reference to one of Lost's most famous criticisms in popular culture; the idea that (especially during earlier seasons) the writers had no long-term gameplan and made things up with no intention of resolving them. However, this has a slightly different meaning when you find out later that this Locke is actually the Anti-Jacob and therefore already knows all the rules, meaning that Richard did make this up.

One episode of M*A*S*H begins with Hawkeye and BJ singing in the shower. When Winchester points out that they're singing two different operas and they're both out of tune, Hawkeye replies "Don't blame me, I didn't write this stuff."note Also serves as little bit of meta-humor, given that the episode was actually written by Alan Alda.

My Name is Bruce starring Bruce... Campbell, to self-deprecating effect has a kid coming to the drunken "star" and extolling his need for help and explaining what is effectively the movie's plot. Bruce takes it as an indie film pitch, tells him to keep the budget under $500,000 and get one named actor, then gives himself an aside saying it's the stupidest pitch he's ever heard.

In several instances in Danganronpa cases, Monokuma will comment rudely about issues in the Killing Game, like a Plot Hole (such as twin sisters who have different last names for no reason), or a Recycled Script from one game to another, Laser-Guided Amnesia stealing the memories of the protagonists' friendships. It's Hypocritical Humor, given that he's the one responsible. Of course (MASSIVE spoiler), he's actually Leaning on the Fourth Wall and referring to the writers of the Show Within a Show that is Danganronpa itself, since all the games up to Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony are works of fiction in-universe.
At one point, in Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, Kazuichi mentions to Hajime that he stumbled upon an computer with emails describing the "Worst, Most Despair-inducing Incident in the History of Mankind", a rather important part of their story's whole premise. Kazuichi then casually dismisses the whole thing as obviously being some wannabe writer sharing their silly manga plot with their friends, finding the whole idea of a bunch of disgruntled Japanese high school students suddenly causing world-wide riots and even widespread societal collapse to be completely "unrealistic", outright saying that he finds it an even more "impossible" plot than that story about "a notebook that kills people just by writing in it."

In Alan Wake, a man is attacked and fatally wounded by his best friend, who has become a Taken. Before he dies, he complains that it's like when a good movie gets a sequel no one asked for, and it's full of lame plot twists that make no sense, like the hero's best friend now being the bad guy for no reason, as he can't understand why his friend would ever attack him like that. Little does he know that the person he's currently complaining to is the one who wrote that crap.

In Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, during a duel between Chazz and Adrian Gecko, Adrian retorts to Chazz's lame comebacks with "The sooner I beat you, the less bad dialogue I have to hear!" That whole ("dub") episode has many a Shout-Out to Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series, proving even 4Kids Entertainment can be funny if they try. Unfortunately that seemed to have been the only time they did that.

Ratchet & Clank:
In Ratchet: Deadlocked, Dallas, the commentator in question, is...not quite the smartest person in the game. Even he can spot the key bad writing:
Also happens during the Captain Qwark mini-games during Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal. The narrator in the opening and closing bits voices his disbelief of Qwark's supposed adventures. Didn't help that Qwark wrote the scripts.

Muppets Tonight:
At the beginning of the "Hardy Pig Boys in the Mystery of the Zombie Queen of the Amazon Outer Space Bee Woman Case: Based on a novel by Jane Austen."
And in the episode with Garth Brooks, he and Miss Piggy have a Romeo and Juliet scene (that was supposed to be a country song), and Piggy has to read from cue cards, but either her eyesight is really bad or her glasses are faulty because she misreads many of the words.
After reading the last line she snaps, "Whoever wrote this should be shot!".

In The Fairly OddParents!, the metafictional character The Crimson Chin is repeatedly brought to life. In the first episode he appears in, Chin Up!, this exchange occurs.
This is actually given a nod in another episode, when he's coming up with different corny speeches, and he angrily yells that he doesn't talk that way and it's the writer's fault.

Courage the Cowardly Dog: In one episode Muriel gets possessed by an evil spirit and Courage finds an exorcism spell online. Eustace looks over the spell (which requires the user to wear a woman's nightdress and recite a nonsensical chant in cheerlead-like fashion), he recites the last line "Kick 'em in the dishpan, who who who" in confusion and looks at Courage, who just shrugs.

Danger Mouse:
The narrator frequently criticizes the scripts and often refuses to read them if he thinks they're just too bad.
In the 2015 episode "Danger on Level C", Danger Mouse's reaction to Greenback's latest monster is a sarcastic "A hammerhead-octopus? Who comes up with this?"
Both Jeopardy Mouse and Baron Greenback complain about the quality of their lines when Count Duckula stages a Hostile Show Takeover by kidnapping the writers in "The Duckula Show".

This trope is a recurring gag in The Monkees.
An episode parodying Robinson Crusoe starts with the Crusoe and Man Friday characters watching The Monkees, and Friday saying, "Who writes this stuff?'' Once the band arrives, he would repeat this frequently while watching their antics.
A more subtle example occurs in "Monkees a la Mode", which features a character named Rob Roy Fingerhead. Whenever his name is mentioned, Mike and Micky look at each other in disbelief and mouth the words "Rob Roy Fingerhead?" to each other.
Not exactly this trope, but in "Dance, Monkee, Dance", Micky is frustrated by a turn of events and stomps off the sound stage, past the cameras and crew, into a back room, and demands that the writers give him an idea to resolve the plot. They do, but he rejects it and returns to the set, complaining that the writers are really overpaid.

Tiny Toon Adventures:
In "Buster and Babs Go Hawaiian", Buster complains that the episode appeared to have been written by 13-year-olds. The joke, naturally, was that the episode was written by 13-year-olds.
In "The Anvil Chorus", Plucky similarly complains about an opera he's expected to perform, in which the script calls for him to have an anvil dropped on his head every three seconds or so. Incidentally, the short was apparently written by the anvils.
This joke comes up quite a bit. In one episode, Little Sneezer is playing a trumpet and eating smelly cheese in the basement, which carries through the ventilation system, causing the toonsters to assume someone is farting repeatedly. Babs asks, "Who wrote this?"
In the second episode of the series, "A Quack to the Quarks":

Helen and Troy's Epic Road Quest: While Troy is willing to go along with the usual genre-staples that come with questing, Helen is the one to point out how contradictory the narrative logic quests run on are; how the less likely you are to survive, the more likely you are to survive, or how being the last person to enter a dangerous place increases your odds of survival. The person explaining these conventions to her usually just shrug and agree with her while also saying that it doesn't make any of it less true.

An implied use of the trope was used in Season 9 promos for Two and a Half Men promoting Ashton Kutcher's appearance on the show. Alan is talking with Jake while dressed up as a surgeon, an astronaut, and an explorer, telling various stories about how he met the guy who's going to stay with him, and eventually just turns to the crew and says "Aw come on, there has to be a better way to introduce the character."

On one episode of Growing Pains, after Maggie's father dies, his spirit is sent back to earth to say all the things to his loved ones that he didn't say while he was alive. He has a list in his hands, and a nice touching scene where he apologizes to his daughter for never taking her fishing like he promised. He then turns to his son-in-law Jason and starts to express his regret that they never had a good relationship. Mid-apology, however, he stops himself, saying that he does not feel this way and wondering who the heck wrote the list for him.

At one point, in Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, Kazuichi mentions to Hajime that he stumbled upon an computer with emails describing the "Worst, Most Despair-inducing Incident in the History of Mankind", a rather important part of their story's whole premise. Kazuichi then casually dismisses the whole thing as obviously being some wannabe writer sharing their silly manga plot with their friends, finding the whole idea of a bunch of disgruntled Japanese high school students suddenly causing world-wide riots and even widespread societal collapse to be completely "unrealistic", outright saying that he finds it an even more "impossible" plot than that story about "a notebook that kills people just by writing in it."

Doctor Who:
At the beginning of "The Doctor Dances", the Ninth Doctor is his surrounded by a possessed child and its clones. He forces them to retreat by repeatedly shouting "Go. To. Your. Room." He then comments, "I'm so glad that worked. Those would have been terrible last words."
When the Doctor meets his future self, this inevitably happens. In "The Day of the Doctor", the War Doctor is not shy in his opinions of his successors, in what could be taken as meta commentary on elements added to the show since its revival in 2005; jabs at elements such as the younger, sexier casting choices ("... am I having a midlife crisis?"), the Revival Doctors' habit of pointing their sonic screwdrivers like Dirty Harry ("There you are with the pointing again! What are you going to do, assemble a cabinet at them?!?") or getting snogged by the various women they encounter ("Is there a lot of this in the future?").

Beetlejuice has a tendency to complain about plot twists he doesn't like in the Contractually Obligated Chaos series. Somewhat justified since, as in the show, the characters are aware that Mr. Monitor often puts their antics on Neitherworld television, and he has every reason to believe that there actually is a screenwriter controlling the script.

Monty Python's Flying Circus:
And now for something completely different: one episode has this caption with the last four words crossed out: THE R.S.P.C.A. WISH IT TO BE KNOWN THAT THAT MAN WAS NOT A BONA FIDE ANIMAL LOVER AND ALSO THAT GOLDFISH DO NOT EAT SAUSAGES. THEY ARE QUITE HAPPY WITH BREADCRUMBS ANTS' EGGS A̶N̶D̶ ̶T̶H̶E̶ ̶O̶C̶C̶A̶S̶I̶O̶N̶A̶L̶ ̶P̶H̶E̶A̶S̶A̶N̶T̶. When the narrator reaches the last four words, he asks, "Who wrote that?"

In True Lies, Schwarzenegger's character has a French agent record some dialogue as part of a complicated scheme to punish his wife for (almost) cheating on him while also bringing some passion back into their marriage.

At one point in Quest for Glory IV, the narrator can be heard muttering "How cheesy can you get?" after a particularly pun laden bit of exposition. While this is the most obvious case of the narrator reacting to his lines, it's by no means the only one. Crosses over with Throw It In! and Creator Backlash, as John Rhys-Davies, who voices the narrator, later said he was unpleasantly surprised at how many lines he had to read for the script, and was not fond of the pun heavy humor of the game's creators.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer (2002) has Spike reading an invocation to summon a demon lord that's holding Dru's spirit hostage. In the middle of the invocation, he pauses to say, "Who writes this dross?" (Which has some added humor value, since before he became a vampire, Spike was a writer known for writing truly bad poetry. In fact, his original nickname of "William the bloody" was a reference to this, as in "William the bloody awful poet!")

Buffy the Vampire Slayer:
In "Shadow", Glory comments on the writing of a magic spell she's performing: "Dark incantations. Always overwritten."
From "Once More, with Feeling":
In "Tabula Rasa", after everyone loses their memories, Buffy has to tell Spike that he's a vampire and they're both pretty confused that he seems to be one of the good guys. This leads to a playful Take That! to both Buffy and Angel and a Shout-Out to the latter, including the catchphrase for "Angel Investigations".
"Normal Again" has several lines of this nature during the Cuckoo Nest scenario, such as the psychologist saying that Dawn's existence created "inconsistencies", and commenting almost snidely that Buffy went from fighting a god to a bunch of losers from high school.

In a (possibly re-created) outtake from an unnamed Western radio show, perhaps The Lone Ranger, two bandits are discussing what they were going to do with the stagecoach they had just robbed, when the sound of hoofbeats is heard in the distance. One bandit says, "Listen, I hear a white horse comin'! . . . Say, that's a great line, I wonder who wrote it." The last sentence was not quite under his breath.

In Negima! Magister Negi Magi, Chisame is vocally annoyed by the lack of foreshadowing for Zazie's appearance in the Magic World. Which is a hilarious meta joke in reverse, because the big "show everyone" poster in the very first chapter had Zazie right in the middle with claws for fingernails.
Admittedly, firstly, in most printings, the image in question is incredibly small, and/or also printed on the fold line, and secondly, several dozen volumes before the reveal. Only an incredibly dedicated reader would be aware there WAS foreshadowing. It's a Chekhov's Gun where everyone checked the gun for a bullet, and put it away in a box, and then all wondered why they heard a bang in the back of the storeroom.

In the 21st episode of The Silverscale Arena, Art, having witnessed Lubdan get eaten by a Cock Demon, turns to the writer with a look that’s described as 'I'm the one who slaughters college girls in brutal ways and I'M in disbelief that you wrote that.'
In the 33rd episode, after Blitz gets Moxxie into his 'Moxxine' disguise, he has him read out a script he wrote to lure any contestants or Killer Klowns for them to kill. But when Moxxie gets to the last few words, he breaks out of character to scold his boss for how unbelievable the dialogue is.

An episode parodying Robinson Crusoe starts with the Crusoe and Man Friday characters watching The Monkees, and Friday saying, "Who writes this stuff?'' Once the band arrives, he would repeat this frequently while watching their antics.

In John Finnemore's Souvenir Programme, one episode has a spy drama set in a zoo, with an early gag of "Shall we say backchannels?" "All right, 'backchannels'. It's fun to say." Later, when Finnemore's character is explaining to another that they are not doing a joke about moles, even though it would seem to be the only reason to set a spy drama in a zoo, because it's a bit cheap and obvious, the other character says "So I take it we left out the backchannels joke as well?" Finnemore replies "Yes. Yes, we did."

In one episode of Star Trek: Voyager, Paris is playing what appears to be a holonovel with the Voyager crew as characters, and ends up being trapped in the brig with several other characters, including a holographic Tuvok. Paris, who just wants to get to the fun part already, suggests an escape attempt. "Tuvok" firmly shuts this down, asserting that, "Procedure dictates that we wait for the right opportunity to attempt an escape, whether it takes an hour or a week," eliciting a comment of this type from Paris. It turns out that it was Tuvok himself and he intended it as a training scenario, not entertainment, which accounts for the lack of story-worthy pacing.

StacheBros: In "Boo's Death Sentence", Boo briefly pauses the filming of her chapter of the Mushroom Kingdom Storybook to complain about a typo in the script (the line was supposed to read "Who was this disgraceful sinner?", but it came out as "Who was this disgraceful dinner?").

One episode of Drawn Together ("Little Orphan Hero") ended with the cast walking out in disgust, saying the plotline had obviously been written by a special-needs child.

During one Bob & Ray show, the duo are openly embarrassed to have to read a cheesy promo. Ray eventually convinces Bob to go ahead by pointing out that it'll demonstrate "what happens when you let people with college educations write things."

In Sgt. Frog, the Funimation Dub gives the narrator more lines than in the original. Some of them are about him complaining and questioning the plotlines in some episodes and also makes a few jabs at the writers. Even the characters take notice of how he hates the show, and is only doing the job due to being in debt from too much gambling.

OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes: In "Plazalympics", Dynamite Watkins reads the intro for the opening ceremonies (which is based on the one from Laff-A-Lympics, right down to making her talk like Snagglepuss), then pulls out the script and asks "Okay, which one of you jokers wrote this copy?"
