** Also, ''WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow'' being popular enough to be parodied puts this in the 1990s. These days, thanks to the failed reboot, ''WesternAnimation/RenAndStimpyAdultPartyCartoon'' and news of series creator Creator/JohnKricfalusi's sexual misconduct and aggressive behavior that cost him his career, ''Ren and Stimpy'' (while still popular among '90s kids) has largely fallen out of popularity.

* FridgeLogic: One of the workers at the Big Brother program had been saving Tom for someone special. Pepi, meanwhile, has apparently been checking in on an hourly basis for someone to be his Big Brother. Somehow it was never considered that Tom would be the perfect fit for him.

Renamed one trope.
* QuestionableCasting: A mild case here. As Tom Cruise [[WhatCouldHaveBeen turned down the role of Tom]], it instead went to Phil Hartman. While very few would argue that it ruins the episode, it goes majorly against Phil Hartman's strengths. Hartman was known for playing older, more charismatic characters, often with a streak of unscrupulous and/or shady behavior, especially on the Simpsons. It may seem odd to hear this young, muscular, affectionate man have the voice of a 44-year-old more equipped to play fathers and white-collar professions.

** ZigZagged by the record and tape club scams where the first 10 albums are a penny before the prices are jacked up. While a world of people streaming music and downloading music legally and illegally has caused these to vanish, the basic concept of a service that offers a massively discounted rate for a limited period and jacks up the price for those who did not ReadTheFinePrint has only gotten more mainstream thanks to the Internet.
