An episode of The Simpsons titled "Sideshow Bob's Last Gleaming" had a couch gag with the family as "Sea Monsters," which are green brine shrimp.

Earlier in the episode, Didi declares them to be an educational toy, while Stu grumbles at how much money he had to pay for "a bowl full of reconstituted brine shrimp". An episode of Rugrats had Tommy and Chuckie being sad at their "Sea Monies" being stuck in a fishbowl, so they smuggled them to the beach in Stu's cooler and helped release them into the ocean.Like the Sea-Monkeys, the A-Primes are depicted as having a whole civilization. Phineas and Ferb features the titular step-brothers using growth elixir to turn the "A-Primes" (short for Aqua-Primates) human-sized.Pepper Ann comments that they "Sure don't look anything like they do on the package." At the beginning of the Pepper Ann episode "Carmello", Pepper Ann and Milo are watching their glasses with Sea Apes in them.Admiral Bubbles later uses a transmogrifier on them to create an army of giant sapient shrimp to assist him in taking over the world, only for them to overthrow him. One episode of My Goldfish is Evil featured "Sea Dudes", which despite promises of being fun and educational were an absolute bore for Beanie.At the end of the episode, when Muffy buys the Dark Bunny: Revenge of the Moomies video game that Arthur was trying to buy, only to find out that the game is absolutely terrible, Buster's criticism of the game is "The Sea Squirrels were better than this!" Arthur then says, "That doesn't look like a squirrel, it looks like something my baby sister spit up!" and throws the Sea Squirrels in the garbage. When they play with the Sea Squirrels, they turn out to be just a pink ball floating in a fishbowl. In Arthur, a flashback scene from "Arthur Sells Out" has a four-year-old Arthur and Buster buy Sea Squirrels after seeing a commercial for them on television.The Adventures of Sam & Max: Freelance Police: Mack Salmon's plan in "They Came From Down There!" revolves around selling Sea Chimps (that look just like the ones on the box!) as well as growing genetically altered larger Sea Chimps to cut up for meat.In the 3-2-1 Penguins! episode "Lazy Daze", Jason wants to borrow money from Michelle in order to buy some sea chimps.
