** The Scotsman is [[John Dimaggio]] ([[Futurama|Bender]] and [[Adventure Time
** Some of the early promos had narration from the voice of [[Aqua Teen Hunger Force
** For the Venezuelan dub, the same team that dubbed Medabots dubbed this. Particularly notorious in the episode Jack's Sandals, what with the shoe salesman being a referee, and the kids having the voice of the kids of the cast. Jack's voice actor (Juan Guzman) [[Man of a Thousand Voices|is]] [[Tiny Toon Adventures|Hampton the pig]], [[The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack|Captain K'nuckles]] and [[Total Drama Island|Geoff]].
* [[Shout-Out]] - various...but one notable one: in the [[Compilation Movie]], the sirens were {{spoiler|Destiny's Child}}.

** Is this troper the only one to see [[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Jabu-Jabu references]] in that episode?
** Surprisingly, [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] in the episode ''Jack's Sandals''. When he's running with a pair of blue sneakers, he leans forward, puts his arms behind his body and his running motion forms an 8. And he's as fast as a car.
*** Another brief one occurs at the beginning of Episode L, with one of the scientists resembling Dr. Eggman. His coworkers resemble [[Mega Man (
** And plenty of references to Tartakovsky's ''[[
** In the cowboy episode on the train, there's a scene between [[Lawyer-Friendly Cameo|Quick Straw and Bubba Louis]].

** "Where are we going?" "The [[Highlander
*** Followed later in the same episode with describing haggis as "Sheep's stomach stuffed with meat and barely."
** Maybe this is just me, but one of the gangsters in the aptly named "Jack and the Gangsters" looks a lot like [[Reservoir Dogs|Mr. Brown]]
Line 31:
** At one point, Jack follows a white rabbit down a hole which leads to a fantastical, whimsical world. Does this even need a [[Pothole]]?
** "Jack and the Creature" is a shout out to ''[[My Neighbor Totoro]]''.
** "Jack and the Labyrinth" introduces a character who resembles Daisuke Jigen from ''[[Lupin III]]''
** Mondo Bot seems to resemble [[Metroid|Samus' Power Suit]].
*** How about the Princess from the ''Princess and the bounty Hunters? None of the other realize she's a woman until she takes off her helmet. Not to mention she's a brunette, much like Samus was in the early years of Metroid.
** The plot of "Jack and the Flying Prince and Princess" is a reference to that of ''[[Star Wars]]''.
** Wanna hear a story about a nameless, mostly silent samurai armed with a mystic sword that can destroy an evil, shape-shifting demon, only to be cast into the far distant future? Okay, [[Ronin (
