History ShoutOut / FostersHomeForImaginaryFriends

** There's also a scene in the episode in which Bloo steals the Foster's bus which has a hitchhiker wearing a bathrobe holding a sign that says "Magrathea." In the same episode, there is a Star Wars shout out when Mac throws money for a toll out the window and misses to which Bloo responds "Negative. It only impacted on the surface."

* In ''Destination Imagination'', the body Frankie creates for World looks very similar to [[ChalkZone Snap]].

** Bloo introduces his band as "The [[Music/{{BlackSabbath}} Bloo Sabbath]] [[Music/{{TheJimiHendrixExperience}} Experience]] Mach III."

'''Coco:''' [[Film/{{Ghostbusters}} Co Co-co!]]\\

* In ''Go Goo Go'', Goo's letter is signed "[[SonicYouth Your Friend Goo]]".

* There's a [[PunnyName telegraph friend]] called [[Music/{{Morrissey}} Morsey]] who talks in either Morse code, or lyrics from TheSmiths songs.

* "Destination Imagination". [[FridgeBrilliance The first clue]] thats something is wrong when the gang wakes up in the house, the carpet is the same as the one in ''TheShining". This pattern appears again at the hotel in "Pranks for Nothing".

*Also in ''Destination Imagination'': "Maybe there's another way to the universe! Like [[Literature/{{The Chronicles of Narnia}} Through this wardrobe!"]]
* In a flashback in "Nightmare on Wilson Way", Frankie is seen going as TankGirl for Halloween.

* In "Cookie Dough", Frankie, while chowing down on Madame Foster's cookies, is crazily shouting [["Series/SesameStreet COOKIE! COOKIE! COOKIE! ME LOVE COOKIES!"]]

* In "Cookie Dough", Frankie, while chowing down on Madame Foster's cookies, is crazily shouting [[Series/SesameStreet/ COOKIE! COOKIE! COOKIE! ME LOVE COOKIES!]]

* In "Cookie Dough", Frankie, while chowing down on Madame Foster's cookies, is crazily shouting [[Series/SesameStreet/SesameStreet COOKIE! COOKIE! COOKIE! ME LOVE COOKIES!]]

** Bloo dresses "Taco Fiesta" in [[Music/{{ElvisPresley}} gold lamé clothes]].

* Frankie's T-shirt (that she wears 99% of the time) has a Stylized image of WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls.

* In the credits gag of the first episode, Bloo is flipping through the channels, and finally decides on one. You can hear audio from Craig's earlier cartoon, ThePowerPuffGirls, with the narrator saying his CatchPhrase.

* Frankie's T-shirt (that she wears 99% of the time) has a Stylized image of ThePowerpuffGirls.

* At the end of "The Bride To Beat", Bloo and Mac run out of the church and board a bus in a sequence mirroring that at the end of [[Film/{{TheGraduate}}]].

* In "Shlock Star", Pizza Party's album/single CD cover is a parody of Music/BruceSpringsteen's Born in the U.S.A--a shot of a guy wearing pants from behind, Springsteen's cover with a pocket holding a hat, Pizza Party's with a slice of pizza.

* In a flashback in "Nightmare on Wilson Way", Frankie is seen going as TankGirl for Halloween.

* From "Berry Scary": "He's the best, Jerry... [[Series/{{Seinfeld}} the best]]."

* In the episode titled [[TheBigLebowski "The Big Lablooski"]] don't these guys look familar? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=50WvebOHjl8&feature=related
** Speaking of which, in the first episode Bloo rattles off a list of his nick names, one of which is [[TheBigLebowski "El Blooderino"]]

*Also in ''Destination Imagination'': "Maybe there's another way to the universe! Like [[Literature/{{The Chronicles of Narnia}} Through this wardrobe!"]]

* In "Mac Daddy", when Bloo is trying to get rid of Cheese, he says to him, in a very sinister tone: [[Film/{{Saw}} "Wanna play a game?"]]

* In the pilot movie, there's a bit where the now legless Extremasaur is chasing Bloo around the dump. It switches to an overhead view and looks like something out of Pac-Man.
** Not to mention Bloo's ghost shape. But why is Pac-Man chasing the ghost? Well he's Bloo isn't he?

* 2 of the biggest Shout Outs to VideoGames in Western Animation history: A chase scene in the pilot episode resembles the game ''{{Pac-Man}}'' to high degrees (which was easy, since Bloo looks just like one of the ghosts from this game). Later, in ''Destination Imagination'', there's a longer scene that looks exactly like an NES ''SuperMarioBros'' game, complete with Mac growing upon eating a... not mushroom, but pumpkin. The only real differences are said pumpkin and the appearances of some enemies.
** Another shout out to ''SuperMarioBros'' occurs during a chase scene, where a SheetOfGlass is being carried by two guys who are ''clearly'' Mario and Luigi.

* In Destination Imagination, sort of. "These people wobble, but they don't fall down!" Referencing, of course, Weebles.

* At the end of "Bloo Superdude & the Great Creator of Everything's Awesome" a hallucinating Frankie imagines herself in a science fiction scene very reminiscent of ''{{Barbarella}}''... a movie, it should be noted, that is [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar very nearly porn]].
