Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (animation): Difference between revisions

* [[Decoy Damsel]]: Lahwhiney.

* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: How Chip and Dale met Monty. He picked the fight, they had staying power.

* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: Appropriately Queenie, after Zipper helps her save her swarm and she acknowledges his feelings for her.

* [[Derailed for Details]]: Gadget frequently is.

* [[Edible Ammunition]]: For example,

** Squeezed-out bananas in "To the Rescue, Part 1".

** Small Easter eggs on a catapult in "Three Men and a Booby".

** RamDale's Decaffeinator machine gun from "Le Purrfect Crime" shoots coffee beans.

*** Not to mention her reaction to seeing Dale's head on her body. (Keep the hands off the body!)

** In "Shell Shocked", after the Rangers fall to the floor.

* [[Giant Enemy Crab]]: The [[Did Not Do the Research|red]] lobsters in "Gadget Goes Hawaiian" are indeed giants in comparison to mice.

* [[Giant Spider]]: And the tarantula baddie Lou is large if compared with the Rangers, too. Not that he's really scary, though.

* [[Keep Circulating the Tapes]]: The show has never been aired on American free TV since 1993. It did air on cable (on both The [[Disney Channel]] and [[Toon Disney]]) in the late 1990s/early 2000s, but now that's gone too due to [[Network Decay]]. The entire Season 3 has still not been released on DVD yet, it's being removed from [[YouTube]] again and again, and the few copies of the "Witcheroo" VHS tape are far from being sufficient for the many Foxyphiles, not to mention that probably only few of them still have a VHS recorder.

* [[Kent Brockman News]]: Stan Blather.

* [[Lady in Red]]: Gadget in "Double 'O Dale" and "Mind Your Cheese & Q's".

* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: Happens in "A Creep in the Deep". After Gadget pulls out a larger-than-herself glass cutter seemingly out of nowhere:

'''Gadget:''' No. Just when I want to cut glass. }}

* [[Land Down Under]]: Where Monty and his parents hail from.

** In "To the Rescue", the detective and his dog are named Donald Drake and Plato, obviously a nod to [[Chip and Dale]]'s old costars [[Donald Duck]] and Pluto; also in that episode, the villain's thug mistakes Dale for his gun, reusing a gag from the 1950s short "The Lone Chipmunks".

** In another episode, the Rangers are going to a movie, and Dale hopes to see some cartoons before the main feature:

** Humphrey the Bear in "Bearing Up Baby".

** The friendly rivalry over between Chip and Dale over Gadget is also a nod to the old cartoon "Two Chips and a Miss", with Gadget replacing Clarice.

* [[She Cleans Up Nicely]]: Gadget in her red dress scenes proves this to be true.

* [[She Is All Grown Up]]: Referenced/used in the meeting scene in "To the Rescue, Part 3":

'''Chip/Dale:''' I'll say!/And how! }}

* [[Shiny Midnight Black]]: Seymour.
