* [[Dirty Communists]]: Well, actually the [[Hammer and Sickle Removed For Your Protection|unnamed "enemies of Freedom"]], but we all know who they're meant to be.
* [[Dutch Angle]]: Used in the space station docking sequence to show that not every object in space approaches on the same plane.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: [[I Dreamof Jeannie|Dr. Bellows]] is General Greene.

* [[Space Clothes]]: Those skullcaps do look silly, even if they do stop your hair floating about in free fall. Briteis' top is also rather tight-fitting, which does [[Fan Service|make up for it]] however.
* [[Space Station]]: This one looks like a [[Flying Saucer|saucer]] instead of the usual wheel-like structure.
