* InSpiteOfANail: One of the biggest of the series. Two sentient species, humans and Kromaggs, evolved on Kromagg Prime. In spite of this rather big historical divergence, that world seemingly still has Creator/RobinWilliams, the ''Literature/LandOfOz'' books (possibly the [[Franchise/LandOfOz many adaptations]] including [[Film/TheWizardOfOz the 1939 film]] too) and Eliot Ness and the Untouchables (again, possibly [[Series/TheUntouchables the television series]] and [[Film/TheUntouchables the film]] based upon their exploits as well).

* ShaggyDogStory: The search for the anti-Kromagg weapon invented by Michael Mallory ends up becoming this in this episode: it is revealed that the weapon is very effective not only against the Kromaggs, but also against every other living thing on the planet.
