Line 228:
* ''[[Hey Arnold!]]'' loved to do this a lot with a lot of semi-obscure movies/radio shows/etc like ''Marty'', ''[[The Birdman of Alcatraz]]'', ''[[War of the Worlds]]'', ''[[12 Angry Men]]'', ''Carmen'', and even ''[[The Longest Day]]''.
* The ''[[Star Wars: The Clone Wars]]'' episode "Senate Spy" shamelessly rips off [[Alfred Hitchcock]]'s ''[[Notorious]]'', swapping CGI Anakin Skywalker & Padme Amidala for [[Cary Grant]] and [[Ingrid Bergman]].
* On ''[[Dexter's Laboratory]]'', the "Dial M For Monkey" short "Wrasslor" is based on a story from ''Marvel Two-In-One Annual'' #7, with Wrasslor taking the role of The Champion and Monkey taking the role of [[Fantastic Four (Comic Book)|The Thing]].
* The plot of the ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'' episode "Squeaky Boots" is one long shout-out to [[Edgar Allan Poe]]'s ''The Tell-Tale Heart'',
* The ''[[Beetlejuice (animation)|Beetlejuice]]'' cartoon did a few of these, including homages to ''[[It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World]]'' and ''[[How to Succeed In Business Without Really Trying]]''.
