* TechnologyMarchesOn: In "Et Tu, Newte?", Ned mentions that, while sleeping over at the Plucks' place, he and Doogle rented "Frankenstein Goes Head-Curling Part 2: The Final Bonspiel" on DVD, then Doogle spent the rest of the night trying to figure out how to rewind it. This was due to the fact that the UsefulNotes/{{DVD}} format was new at the time, and most people still owned [[UsefulNotes/{{VCR}} VHS tapes]].
