* The ''[[Scrubs]]'' episode "My Way Home", contains many [[Shout-Out|Shout Outs]]. It's starts with J.D. listening to Toto. When he arrives at the hospital, the Janitor has painted different routes on the hallways, with yellow (yellow brick road) leading to the exit. He also as a prank spray paints J.D.'s sneakers red, in reference to the ruby red slippers. Dr. Cox calls J.D. "Dorthy" and his only goal now is to get out of the hospital so that he can spend what is supposed to be his day off at home. Eliot as the Scarecrow (needing brains to give a lecture); Turk as the Tin Man (needing a heart for surgery - but also empathy with the couple whose son might be a donor); and Carla as the Lion (needing the courage to talk to Turk about having kids). Other characters were more mix'n'match, with both Dr Cox and Dr Kelso as the Wizard, and a one-off gag with Jordan as the Wicked Witch.

* One of the many parodies in the 200th episode of ''[[Stargate SG-1|Stargate SG 1]]''. Vala as Dorothy; Mitchell as the Scarecrow; Teal'c as the Tin Man; Daniel as the Lion; Carter as the Good Witch; and Landry as the Wizard.
