If you like Actual Play shows, the Film Reroll podcast plays exclusively in GURPS. They play a fairly light version of the rules, but still make custom mechanics for various settings that show how modular of a system it is.

The show takes the premise of a movie and plays it out as a roleplay campaign. My favorite is Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter, in which the GM tells the players they're playing an obscure teen romance from the 80s so that they wouldn't know they were in a horror movie. I probably wouldn't recommend that for a table, but the actors know to expect tricks and it works very well as entertainment.
