==Popular setups==
There are some well-established setups used regularly in gag cartoons.
*[[Desert island joke]]s: marooned on a [[desert island]]. In earlier cartoons the island was quite large, with a shipwreck shown, to deliver the setup of the narrative. Eventually the setup has shrunk to an iconic image of a sand heap with a palm in the middle. <ref>[https://www.vanityfair.com/culture/2012/05/history-of-the-desert-island-cartoon "A Guy, a Palm Tree, and a Desert Island: The Cartoon Genre That Just Won’t Die"], ''[[Vanity Fair (magazine)|Vanity Fair]]'' (retrieved January 8, 2018)</ref>
