==In media==
*In the 1988 Penny Marshall film ''Big'', the main character, a child who wishes to be big, uses a magical wishing machine very similar to a fortune teller machine that turns him into an adult. That machine was referenced in "Fortune in Flames", a second season episode of the reality television series ''Pawn Stars''.
*In "The Honking", an episode of the animated TV series ''Futurama'', the main characters, wishing to learn about a curse that has afflicted Bender, consult with a fortune teller machine, which, like many of the other machines of the 31st Century is sentient.
*In the eleventh and final series of Big Brother (UK) and the Ultimate Big Brother series, a fortune teller machine named Bob Righter (an anagram of Big Brother), was present in the main living area of the house. In the first few weeks of the series, after an eviction, the machine would tell a good or bad fortune to one of the current housemates. However, in a twist it was actually the evicted housemate who decided who would receive the good or bad fortune.
