* Louise's story in "The Frond Files" is a parody of ''Film/TheTerminator'', but it also includes a homage to the kitchen scene in ''Film/JurassicPark''. Gene's story in the same episode spoofs ''Film/RockAndRollHighSchool'', and before it got weirdly fetishized, Tina's was a spoof of The Walking Dead, down to Tina being a deputy sheriff (actually a hall monitor, but she reasons a hall monitor is the sheriff of the school).
