* ForWantOfANail: Jet serves some pretty disgusting cookies to Sean, Sydney, and Mindy. They decide to order some pizza to get the taste out of their mouths, and consult a satellite map to find pizza near them. They find out that the map is outdated since it doesn't have Jet's house, and try to get an aerial picture view of the house in the process. So, rutabaga and garlic cookies allowed Jet's house to be added to a satellite map.

----
* AlienArtsAreAppreciated: Carrot is shown watching an Earthie cooking show.
* AppointmentTelevision: Sydney is very anxious when the satellite TV service stops working because she doesn't want to miss the new episode of ''Commander Cressida''. Mr. Peterson is also frustrated when his sports game fizzles out. Carrot isn't that bothered by his cooking show being interrupted though, just very, very confused.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Mr. Peterson is generally civil, but his extreme rage in this episode is shocking.
-->'''Mr. Peterson''': Well, for once, my soccer team has made it all the way to the championship final! This is their biggest day ever! And NOW the TV signal goes out?!? '''I BLAME THAT OLD SATELLITE WE'VE GOT UP THERRRRRRE!'''
* {{Cliffhanger}}: The ''Commander Cressida'' episode that Sydney wants to watch is 'the thrilling conclusion of a two-part cliffhanger.'
* ItsPersonal: Parodied. Carrot and Mr. Peterson can't watch their TV shows because of the faulty satellite, but Sydney still hopes that her TV will work. Sure enough, it doesn't, and Sydney declares that "Okay, now it's personal!"
* MrFixit: This is one episode that shows Jet's expertise with fixing things, as he is able to fix a satellite.
* ObsessiveSportsFan: Mr. Peterson is revealed to be a huge soccer fan. For once, his team has made it all the way to the championship final...only for the satellite TV service to stop working. To say he's furious is an understatement.
* QuestioningTitle: The episode's title is in the form of a question.
* RetroUniverse: Although it's already established that the show's setting uses outdated aesthetics, it is shown that Boxwood Terrace gets its' TV service from a satellite. None of the characters suggest streaming their shows online. It's especially odd in the case of Mr. Peterson's soccer game, since many streaming apps provide live-streams of sports. His TV is also quite small and old-looking. Compare this episode with its' sister episode right below, which mentions 'selfie' in the title.
* ShowWithinAShow: Carrot's favorite cooking show on Bortron 7 was ''Bortron Chef''.

!!Satellite Selfie
The gang finds out that the Propulsion house isn't on a satellite map.
----
* AccidentalPervert: Sunspot blasts off in the rocket chair to take an aerial picture of Jet's house, but he zooms everywhere and ends up taking a picture of Mr. Peterson's butt. Mr. Peterson never finds out about it.
* AteItAll: Sunspot eats all the pizza at the end of the episode.
* DiegeticSoundtrackUsage: In the beginning of the episode, Jet hums the show's theme song. Also in that episode, Sean, Jet, and Mindy briefly reminisce about how Jet got to Earth. An instrumental version of the show's theme song plays during it.
* ForWantOfANail: Jet serves some pretty disgusting cookies to Sean, Sydney, and Mindy. They decide to order some pizza to get the taste out of their mouths, and consult a satellite map to find pizza near them. They find out that the map is outdated since it doesn't have Jet's house, and try to get an aerial picture view of the house in the process. So, rutabaga and garlic cookies allowed Jet's house to be added to a satellite map.
* FriendlyTickleTorture: Jet and Sydney tickle Face 9000. Apparently, computers are ticklish.
* IAteWhat: Mindy, Sean, and Sydney have this sort of reaction when they discover that the cookies that they ate were made from a full cup of minced garlic and rutabaga.
* ItsAllAboutMe: In the episode "Satellite Selfie", Face 9000 says "I guess you're just not me" when Sean asks why he didn't think of a good idea. Mindy says the same phrase earlier on.
* NoodleIncident: According to Sydney, Jet once made "sauerkraut space bars."
* PaletteSwappedAlienFood: Jet's cookies, Bortron Bites, look like macarons except they're red and purple.
* TemptingFate: Jet says he's not gonna blink when the satellite takes a picture of Boxwood Terrace. He then sneezes, which causes him to blink.
