Ever get sick of a joke or scene in an animated show or film because you've heard it too much?

Here's a few I'm sick of.

"Spider Pig" from The Simpsons movie: It was just shown too much in trailers, plus all the merchindise made for the character was unbelievable.

"Uncle ****er" from South Park: At first it was hilarious, but after repeated viewings and everyone at your school singing it, it got pretty tiresome. Oddly enough, I still enjoy "Kyle's Mom Is a *****", but mostly because of the Kyle's reaction through the song and Cartman getting caught at the end.

"Chicken Fights" From Family Guy: The first one had it's moments, but the newer ones seemed forced like they thought "We havent done Peter fighting the chicken in a while, stick that in there somewhere!".

"Porky Pig swearing": For those of you who don't know, this is a black and white clip of Porky Pig hammering something and stuttering "Son of a B-b-b-b-b-b-b-Gun" and then looking at the audience and saying "You thought I was going to say son of a ***** didn't ya?!"
Like most swearing cartoons, it lost it's humour after a while.
 
Yes, yes, and yes about the Doom Song thing from Invader ZIM.

Fred Fredburger's "Yes!" and Cheese's "I like chocolate milk" is especially annoying since the shows themselves try to play it out.
 
Not popular itself but, by some reason, in Billy & Mandy I dislike everytime the 4th wall is broken. All these jokes seems forced, as if they were too desperate to prove that they are a smart show.
 
The title of that cartoon is called PORKY'S BREAKDOWNS and is actually included as a bonus on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 4 (can't remember which disc exactly, but I think it's disc 4).
 
It was also included (and probably first screened) on a compilation reel called "Breakdowns of 1936" featuring Warner Brother actors of the day like Edward G. Robinson, James Cagney, and Humphrey Bogart flubbing their lines between takes. The Porky bits are interspersed every few minutes or so.
 
It was in the commercial. My sister said at the summer camp she was couciling for, kids were sing Spider-Pig song,(the one Homer was sing, not the one that sounded Opera like.)
