The article says 'A minion show up can be seen near the wood cart when Professor Chaos is describing his plan to block out the sun.' What is 'a minion show up'?-- Jcvamp 03:05, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
I think they're talking about his gerbils. In the previous episode, Butters dressed them like himself and called them his "minions".
I have removed the trivia entry "In the part where Cartman hides inside Ms. Chocksondick’s body in the morgue, is a parody of Bad Boys II, where Martin Lawrence hides by lying in the bed next to a woman." because this is untrue. Bad Boys II was not released until July 18th 2003, which is a year after the release of this South Park episode. Therefor this cannot be a parody of Bad Boys II.
The end of the episode is a reference to the Futurama episode, Godfellas, which first aired March 17, 2002. In this episode, civilizations on Bender's front and back launch nuclear weapons, destroying themselves. Since Futurama is a Simpson's spin off, this is likely a joke within a joke. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.143.85.154 ( talk) 17:58, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
Futurama? I always thought it was based on the Simpsons episode where Lisa creates life in the petri dish ("The Genesis Tub", part of "Treehouse of Horror VII"). 86.157.156.103 ( talk) 17:07, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
The Simpsons reference is a treehouse of horror homage to a twilight zone episode http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Little_People, The Futurama episode also could be considered an homage, (although not exactly as it is missing the "war between the gods" plot element). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aen13 ( talk • contribs) 06:13, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
Does this episode really reference Sandkings? Or is it just another case of similarity? Lots42 ( talk) 17:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
The article says "Two lines are completely removed from the syndicated version...". What is the "syndicated version"? The ones they show here in Australia includes those lines... 59.167.201.65 ( talk) 23:37, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
Cites?
Butters’ schemes and The Simpsons episodes they reflect:
The article is (soft-)locked, so here is a suggestion from an anonymous contributor. Instead of 'stating that "[they] already did it[...t]wice".' I suggest 'stating that they "Already Did It. Twice".' [1] Because 'it[...t]wice' is ugly. -- 82.171.70.54 ( talk) 13:06, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
