* In [[WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic The Nostalgia Critic's]] review of Creator/FoxKids, when the Critic gets to reviewing ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'', he plays a clip from "The Contest" where Jerry watches ''Tiny Toons'' on Creator/{{Nickelodeon}} and sings "Wheels on the Bus". When Tamara and Malcolm ask why he did that, the Critic points out that that scene always bothered him, since ''Tiny Toons'' aired on Fox Kids at the time (it didn't air on Nickelodeon until 1995), and the Tiny Toons never sang "Wheels on the Bus" on the show.

(Mac and Dennis both play Jerry, Frank is George, Dee is Elaine and Charlie is Kramer). After that scene, Dennis mentions that the gang once tried to do their own spin on the contest, with the twist being that the winner was whoever could masturbate for the longest. Only the aftermath of this is shown, with the entire gang hospitalized.
