* ''[[Arthur (animation)|Arthur]]''
** Parodied in a special relating to an episode plot-making contest (of which the episode itself [[Truth in Television|was the direct result of such a contest]]), where Buster's plot idea was having Buster's character trying to get aliens to come down, they do, [[They Killed Kenny|landing on Buster's character]], take Arthur's character into their ship, doing anal probing (although, as it is a kids show, Arthur's character is just shown in his underpants, although the implications [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|were still on there]]), then leave Arthur behind. Also, the entire sequence was a direct [[Shout-Out]] to [[South Park]] (ironic, considering how that show was anything ''but'' kid friendly.).
** Similarly, in the episode (and book) "Arthur's Slumber Party", a subplot involved a newspaper headline mentioning that someone thought they saw a UFO. DW got obsessed with [[UF OsUFOs]] as a result, and so during the slumber party, Arthur, Brain, and Buster decided to pull a few pranks on DW by first placing one of their sleeping bags and using a cutout of an alien to cause DW to think its a real alien, and then (episode only) create a UFO contraption for DW to take pictures of until it landed via Brain's remote control.
** Hilariously implied to be what happened to D.W.'s Snowball in the episode "D.W.'s Snowball".
