Arrested Development

That was done purposefully as a joke calling out said trope. Still counts on a technicality.

All the more reason why the scene stood out.

In the Halloween episode of Community "Horror Fiction in Seven Spooky Steps" (S3E5), Abed's horror story has the characters waiting through Barry Manilow's "Daybreak" on the radio before hearing the warning about an escaped killer.

Aired 2ish years after ('09 vs '11), but I do like that the narrative trope was being called out for the nonsense that it is.

It might be. But it could be Zootopia as well.

"based on that news report we heard, but not just heard"

Wrong Daybreak by the way, Community Daybreak is by Michael Haggins

5, though the last one is only 13 episodes. Each goes in very different directions.
