The red serge is almost always used in depictions of "Mounties" in popular culture, such as [[Dudley Do-Right]] or ''[[Rose Marie (1936 film)|Rose Marie]]''.

During one of his stints in the [[World Wrestling Federation]], [[Jacques Rougeau]] wore a modified red serge outfit to play his character of "The Mountie"; however, due to protests by the RCMP, the WWF mentioned repeatedly during his matches that he was not a "true representative of the Mounties."  Eventually litigation prevented Rougeau from appearing in Canada as "The Mountie" and the gimmick was dropped.

In the Canadian-produced series ''[[Due South]]'', produced from 1994 to 1999, the character Constable Benton Fraser of the RCMP usually wears the Red Serge, in part due to his official duties at the Canadian Consulate. The character is a traditionalist who firmly believes in wearing that over the blue or brown uniforms, though he is seen wearing all three in the series.{{citation needed|date=March 2024}}

In the Canadian-American produced TV drama series ''[[When Calls the Heart]]'', the character Constable Jack Thornton of the  [[Royal North-West Mounted Police]] is usually seen wearing a red serge.

In the ''[[Barney & Friends]]'' direct-to-video special ''[[List of Barney & Friends episodes and videos|What a World We Share]]'', also known as ''Around the World with Barney'' in UK releases, Barney's friend Canadian friend Monty wears this uniform, which Robert calls the Red Serge a "cool uniform".
