Married With Children was constant with this. My favorite was when Al announced "Assume FOX viewing positions!" Everyone had an antenna/rabbit ears and stood in a different part of the living room.

The League of Uninformed Voters presents the Springfield Mayoral Debates. I'm your moderator, Larry King. Now, a word to our audience: even though we're being broadcast on...Fox, there's no need for obnoxious hooting and hollering.
You know, Fox turned into a hardcore sex channel so gradually I didn't even notice.

Vanessa Redgrave: Now I'm gonna haul ass to Lollapalooza! Yee-haw! *engine revs*
Sideshow Bob: Farewell, dear 'Nessa.

You know, Fox turned into a hardcore sex channel so gradually I didn't even notice. My favorite will always be Homer watching Married With Children. "Alllllll, let's have sex!" "No, Peg." *audience whoops* *Al flushes toilet in the living room, audience goes wild*

Aw they didn't have one of my favorites:
Bart: Listen! Ned Flanders murdered his wife.
Homer: But why? She's such a fox.
*Marge angrily glares at Homer*
Homer: I mean what's on Fox tonight? Something ribald no doubt.
Or strangely I didn't see the couch gag where they rip off the Fox bug from the bottom of the screen and the Simpsons all stomp on it.

We'll sell this to Fox, they'll take anything!

My favorite will always be Peter Griffin telling his family that if all these shows on FOX fail, Family Guy has a chance of coming back. Then he rattles off like thirty shows that bombed.

Yes! I remember that, and always loved it. Give Fox credit, they never seemed to care what their own shows said about their network. I read a cracked article about Burns being a direct attack on Fox's president.

The other Married one that sticks in my head is when Peggy watches TV and a new show was coming out. Then we hear the theme to "Psycho Mom".
Announcer: "On FOX!" Peggy: "Naturally."

There was that bit from one of the newer Simpsons where a helicopter filled with Fox News reporters falls because "it won't work, we're too unbalanced."
Popped me like Champagne at Christmas.

When the Simpsons ran a bunch of fake news headlines parodying Fox News, Fox News got furious and said people would think the obvious jokes were actual news and if they ever did it again they'd sue.
So the Simpsons did it again under the, probably correct, idea Rupert Murdoch wasn't gonna to sue himself.

The best part about that bit was that it was the thing that opened the first episode of the revived Family Guy on Fox back in April 2005.

Ever notice that when he mentions "Greg the Bunny" he glances over at Chris (Seth Green being the star of that sadly short-lived show).

Oh, the network slogan was true: Watch Fox and be damned for all eternity!

I wish a wrestler would do a spot where they unfold a steel folding chair and lift it over their head and yell "FOX viewing positions!" Before using it.

Now imagine if the Banksy couch gag thing was actually animated by people who have to work in conditions just like that. Oh the humanity. I do wonder what the dipping thing is, maybe I just don't know enough about animation...

When The Critic aired on Fox, there would be those "We'll be back after these messages" bumpers. My favorite one was "You're watching Fox, where they can say the word 'boobies.'"
