* FanonDiscontinuity: The episode opens with the Critic wistfully reminiscing about ''The Simpsons'' as if it already ended years ago.
-->'''Critic:''' And, if it was still on air today, I'm sure it would continue to inspire and challenge all of the masses out there-- ''(a promotion for a modern ''Simpsons'' episode appears, killing the mood)'' '''Goddamn it, it's still on?!'''
* LameComeback: Overheard during the arguing in the credits:
-->'''Elephant:''' In my opinion, you're an ass.\\
'''Critic:''' ''(yelling)'' You know what?! You're a goddamn elephant!
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: When discussing "22 Shorts Films About Springfield":
-->'''Critic:''' I think the only nitpick I have is that while they did connect a lot of the stories together, they never did connect it to the commercial interruptions.[[note]]In the episode, there was no segue between Moe trapped behind bullet-proof glass while Snake robs him and "Skinner and the Superintendant", or between various characters visiting Lisa about her gum problem and "Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel".[[/note]] And that really annoys me, because it's like the commercials just get in the way of every''(ad break)''thing.
* OrphanedReference: The Critic's summary of "Homer's Enemy" does not mention Bart's subplot at all, yet the clip of Frank Grimes ranting about Homer's home life still retains him mentioning "a son who owns a factory".

--> '''Critic''': Yes, like most people, I really wish ''The Simpsons'' would just up and die so we can talk about what a great impact it had on comedy as opposed to asking why the hell they’re beating a dead horse with another dead horse!
