Line 23:
** Robo's partner, Lewis, is [[Carrie|Chris Hargensen]].
** Combining this with [[Hey, It's That Voice!]] - In the first film [[Goof Troop|Goofy]] is a reporter and a young (and uncredited) [[Sailor Moon|Sailor Mars]] makes a cameo.
* [[Playing Against Type]]: Prior to playing Dick Jones, Ronny Cox played nice guys. However, Dick Jones also set up a new type for him, as proven by [[Stargate SG-1|Senator Robert Kinsey]] and [[Total Recall|Vilos Cohaagen]].
* [[Shout-Out]]: The [[Show Within a Show]] ''I'd Buy That for a Dollar'' is a homage to the idiot's TV-derived catchphrase from the dystopic SF novel ''The Marching Morons'', updated for inflation. Originally: "I'd buy that for a quarter!" <ref>The star of the show, Bixby Snyder, is possibly a homage to [[Benny Hill]]. Or a parody. In a supposedly-filmed scene, there's one final newscast where the newsreaders announce that Snyder has been arrested for receiving sexual favours from underaged co-stars.</ref>
** In ''2'', Caine is overseeing the development of new versions of nuke, one of which is named Blue Velvet, likely after the song. But just maybe because the chemist working on it is named [[Blue Velvet|Frank.]]
