* In the Robot Monster episode, the scene with Servo's mind being blown by the fact that bees shouldn't be able to fly, but do, is pretty hilarious today due to the fact that the opening lines in ''WesternAnimation/BeeMovie'' says almost the exact same thing [[note]] “According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way that a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyways. Because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.”[[/note]] and is now days a popular cut and paste meme. It's even funnier when you remember that the star of Bee Movie, Jerry Seinfeld, was friends with Joel during their early days of comedy.
