'''Rory:''' But most of all, me, Rory! And remember, kids, until next time...\\
'''The Rodents:''' [[DrugsAreBad SAY NO TO DRUGS!]]\\
'''Brenda:''' ''(watching the episode on a rerun block over 30 years after it originally aired)'' Ah yes, the classic "do as I say, not as I do".

* ''WebVideo/ManateeGirlTheMovie:'' Parodied and {{lampshade|Hanging}}d in the "Baby Manatee Says" segment. The entire video has an underlying message of a GreenAesop about protecting manatees. The message we're presented with at the end is, to the SnarkyNonHumanSideKick's irritation, "don't lick electrical sockets".

* ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'' included a VerySpecialEpisode about testicular torsion - an obscure and embarrassing medical problem to which Dean succumbed. The after-credits segment included the AnimatedActors woodenly giving awareness lectures while reading off cue cards, in a very 'The More You Know' style.
