| 10 | * Creator/{{Sanrio}}: |
| 11 | ** In episode 6b of ''Anime/JewelpetMagicalChange'', plush toys of Franchise/HelloKitty and [[Anime/OnegaiMyMelody My Melody]] are turned into giant monsters. Both characters, as well as the ''Jewelpet'' franchise, are creations of Creator/{{Sanrio}}. |
| 12 | ** On the topic of Jewelpets, Ruby also makes an appearance in the 2012 ShortFilm ''Onegai My Melody: Yu and Ai'' where's she seen among the other residents of Mariland listening to My Melody's stories. Fittingly enough, ''Onegai My Melody: Yu and Ai'' was screened alongside ''Anime/JewelpetTheMovieSweetsDancePrincess'' during it's original Japanese release. |
| 13 | ** During [[EyeCatch eyecatches]] for ''Anime/OnegaiMyMelody'', Hello Kitty is seen watching TV as her television is playing clips from that week's episode. |
| 14 | ** The 1981 feature film ''Anime/TheFantasticAdventuresOfUnico'' (based on the Creator/OsamuTezuka [[Manga/{{Unico}} manga series]]) features ''Franchise/HelloKitty'' and The Little Twin Stars (Kiki and Lala) making a non-speaking background cameo during Katy's musical number of her dreams on becoming a cat witch. Fitting, since the Unico manga series was first serialized on "Lyrica" (Sanrio's defunct magazine division) between November 1976 and 1979. In general, Unico was originally co-created between Creator/OsamuTezuka and Sanrio, with Sanrio having the merchandise rights between the seventies and eighties until Tezuka Productions took over after Tezuka's passing in early 1989. |
| 15 | ** The second Unico film ''Anime/UnicoInTheIslandOfMagic'' features Tuxedo Sam making a non-speaking cameo appearance where he alongside Unico and the other forest animals are listening to Toby performing on his flute. |
| 16 | ** Hello Kitty, My Melody, and The Little Twin Stars show up during the climax of the 1985 animated film ''Anime/AJourneyThroughFairyLand'' which is Sanrio Animation's final animated film. |
| 17 | * In ''Anime/PonyoOnTheCliffByTheSea'', there are several references to fellow Creator/StudioGhibli film ''Anime/MyNeighborTotoro''. For example, there's a Totoro magnet on the refrigerator in Sosuke's house, and at one point Lisa sings a line from ''Totoro'''s opening song ("I'm happy as can be!"). |
| 18 | * ''Anime/PrettyCure'': |
| 19 | ** Nagisa Misumi's blanket on her bed is purple and has a print of rabbits on it, just like [[Anime/SailorMoon Usagi Tsukino]], the lead heroine of another MagicalGirl series by Toei. |
| 20 | *** The BirthdayEpisode of ''Anime/FutariWaPrettyCureMaxHeart'' [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/prettycure/images/0/0a/Sweethousemahoaiko.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20150325234452 features a sign with references to]] ''Anime/OjamajoDoremi'', which was not only made by both Toei Animation and Bandai, but also held the same 8:30AM Sunday timeslot on TV Asahi. |
| 21 | ** ''Anime/HealinGoodPrettyCure'' had two references to ''Anime/OjamajoDoremi'': |
| 22 | *** Batetemoda greets people by saying "Chiisu!", just like Hana-chan does in the Dokkan season. |
| 23 | *** A poster for ''Majo Minarai wo Sagashite'' is shown when Hinata puts up flyers for the Eternal Tree festival. |
| 24 | * The festival episode of the first season of ''Anime/OjamajoDoremi'' featured a plush [[Anime/YumeNoCrayonOukoku Stonston]] as a prize. Like ''Ojamajo Doremi'', ''Yume no Crayon Oukoku'' was a show with a toyline by [=BanDai=] that aired Sundays at 8:30AM on TV Asahi. |
| 25 | ** The episode "Don't Use That! The Forbidden Magic" has a poster of Princess Silver from ''Yume no Crayon Oukoku'' in Nanako's room. |
| 26 | * ''Anime/SailorMoon'': |
| 27 | ** Many episodes of the first season reference previous timeslot occupant and fellow Toei/Bandai production ''Manga/GoldfishWarning'', mainly by showing the Gyoppi character on merchandise from shopping bags to underwear. Most notably, Usagi uses Wapiko's catchphrase, "Onaka no rappa ga pu!", in episodes 11 and 25. |
| 28 | ** In episode 104, Chibiusa meets a boy who acts like ''Manga/CrayonShinChan''. Both ''Crayon Shin-Chan'' and ''Sailor Moon'' aired on TV Asahi. |
| 29 | * In an episode of ''Manga/NurseAngelRirikaSOS'', the leads of ''Manga/AkazukinChacha'' and ''Manga/HimechansRibbon'' make cameos. All three shows, originally manga series published in shoujo magazine, ''Magazine/{{Ribon}}'', had the same production company, Creator/StudioGallop, and in fact were the three then-most recent shows Gallop had produced. |
| 30 | * Combined with WritingAroundTrademarks in ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureStoneOcean''. The original manga contains a reference to Franchise/MickeyMouse. This was changed to WesternAnimation/BugsBunny in the anime adaptation, on which [[Creator/WarnerBros Warner Bros. Japan]] is a member of the production committee. |
| 31 | [[/folder]] |
| 32 | |
| 33 | [[folder:Asian Animation]] |
| 34 | * ''Animation/CrazyCandies'': In one Season 3 episode, while digging through the ground to find a secret treasure he thinks is in Bao House, Mr. Seed accidentally ends up in the worlds of ''Animation/DobyAndDisy'' and ''Animation/GGBond'', with all three shows being produced by Winsing Animation. |
| 35 | * The ''Animation/FlowerAngel'' animated series - especially in Season 1 - contains multiple references to one of Taomee's other properties, ''VideoGame/MolesWorld''. The ''Flower Fairy'' protagonist An'an owns a plush toy of ''Mole's World'' antagonist Kula; multiple ''Mole's World'' plushes are seen in a store in Season 1 episode 2; another character wears a hairpin shaped like one of the lahms the ''Mole's World'' moles keep as pets, among other examples. |
| 36 | * ''Animation/HappyHeroes'' contains a few references to ''Animation/PleasantGoatAndBigBigWolf'', including a few from episodes that were produced after ''Happy Heroes''' owners Creator/AlphaGroupCoLtd bought its production company Creative Power Entertaining (e.g. in one episode, Aqiang dresses as a sheep and says "Dearest sheep, I've arrived!" before being hit by a frying pan like how Wolffy is often hit by one). |
| 37 | * ''Animation/KungFuWa'': In episode 4, on the school's second blackboard behind the students' desks you can see a doodle of the title character of ''WesternAnimation/PKingDuckling'', another [=UYoung=] series. |
| 38 | * ''Animation/{{Larva}}'': The Larva Kids channel's rendition of 'Humpty Dumpty' features Egg Man, a character from TUBA's other work ''WebAnimation/RotaryPark'' as the titular egg. |
| 39 | * ''Animation/{{Miniforce}}'': In some city battle shots, a billboard for ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' can be seen in the background. It and ''Miniforce'' share an animation company, Creator/{{SAMG}}. |
| 40 | * ''Animation/PleasantGoatAndBigBigWolf: The Little Detective'' episode 1 features a wall painting of ''WebAnimation/FunAlliance''. Both shows were created by Creator/CreativePowerEntertaining. |
| 41 | [[/folder]] |
| 42 | |
| 43 | [[folder:Card Games]] |
| 44 | * ''TabletopGame/YuGiOh'' is absolutely loaded with references to games by their publisher, {{Creator/Konami}}. |
| 45 | ** Most notable are the references to ''VideoGame/{{Gradius}}'': so far, a card exists for the original ship, an upgraded version from ''Gradius V'', the ships from ''Gradius Gaiden'' (which includes yet another version of the original ship), most of the various ship bosses (complete with support card BossRush), the game's power-ups, at least three of the other various bosses, and at least five of the game's enemies. Plus, they synergize pretty well with the cards based on the protagonist ships in ''Xexex'' and ''Thunder Cross''. |
| 46 | ** Aitsu, Koitsu, Soitsu, and Doitsu are based on the playable characters in ''VideoGame/{{Parodius}}''. |
| 47 | ** The four main characters of ''VideoGame/GanbareGoemon'' each have their own card drawn in a more realistic style. The "Sasuke Samurai" series of cards are also based on Sasuke from this game, and more closely mimic the game's art style. |
| 48 | ** VideoGame/{{Getsu Fuma|Den}} and her mortal enemy, Ryukotsuki, both appear as cards whose effects are designed to slay the other. |
| 49 | ** VideoGame/{{Nanobreaker}} is a {{Gender Flip}}ped version of the game's main character. |
| 50 | ** Star Drawing is based on ''VideoGame/{{Scribblenauts}}'', whose Japanese version was published by Konami. |
| 51 | ** Tactical Espionage Expert is an obvious {{Expy}} of [[VideoGame/MetalGear Solid Snake]]. |
| 52 | ** Ultimate Baseball Kid is based on the characters in ''VideoGame/LivePowerfulProBaseball''. As part of a CrossOver with the 2023 game, there's also [[https://yugipedia.com/wiki/File:ReinforcementoftheArmy-PPC2-JP-NPR.png a special Power Pros version]] of Reinforcement of the Army as well as card parodies of Harpie Lady Sisters (Power Pro Lady Sisters) and Noble Knight Brothers (Power Pro Knight Sisters). |
| 53 | ** Vampire Hunter, a whip user whose card art features a looming castle in the background, is a clear nod to ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}''. |

| 56 | [[folder:Comic Books]] |
| 57 | * In issue #2 of ''ComicBook/DrBlinkSuperheroShrink'', the characters from ''ComicBook/DorkTower'' are seen at the First City Supercon. |
| 58 | -->'''Igor:''' Five bucks? For ''his'' photo? What a rip! |
| 59 | * The third issue of the ''ComicBook/HarleyAndIvy'' miniseries has Harley Quinn engrossed with watching a cartoon called ''Acromegliacs'', which is a clear reference to ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'', a cartoon by Creator/DCComics' parent company Creator/WarnerBros. While the cartoon itself isn't shown on-panel, the three main characters Yucko, Rondo and Splat are clearly named in reference to the Warner Siblings Yakko, Wakko and Dot, plus the theme song is a clear imitation of the one to ''Animaniacs''. |
| 60 | -->''It's time for Acromegliacs\ |
| 61 | And we're ugly to the max\ |
| 62 | We kinda look like cows with big lumps on our brows\ |
| 63 | We're Acromegliaaacs!'' |
| 64 | * A Marvel issue of ''[[WesternAnimation/DynomuttDogWonder Dynomutt]]'' featured a teaser for a ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'' story as two gentlemen approach the gang at a restaurant: |
| 65 | -->'''Man:''' Are you Scooby Doo and friends?\ |
| 66 | '''Shaggy:''' Like, we're sure not WesternAnimation/TheRobonicStooges! |
| 67 | [[/folder]] |
| 68 | |
| 69 | [[folder:Films -- Animated]] |
| 70 | * In ''WesternAnimation/BeeMovie'', Vincent the bear from one of [=DreamWorks=]' previous films, ''WesternAnimation/OverTheHedge'', makes a brief appearance during the [[https://youtu.be/jpEfgrff8z0?t=81 courtroom trial]], albeit with [[AdaptationalDyeJob brown fur instead of the black fur he had before]]. |
| 71 | * Creator/CartoonSaloon: |
| 72 | ** In ''WesternAnimation/SongOfTheSea'', Aisling from ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfKells'' (the studio's first film) can be seen sitting on a bus full of children in Halloween costumes. |
| 73 | ** In ''WesternAnimation/{{Wolfwalkers}}'', Mebh pulls out the Eye of Colm Cille (also from ''The Secret of Kells'') when she's rummaging through Robyn's things. Ben and Saoirse's shell flute from ''Song of the Sea'' can also be seen in the background towards the end of the film. |
| 74 | * In ''WesternAnimation/DCLeagueOfSuperPets'', Lulu asks "What is this, ''WesternAnimation/PAWPatrol''?" [[spoiler: upon seeing the rest of the Superpets]] in the climax. Outright Games made tie-in videogames for both this movie and ''PAW Patrol'', which may explain the joke. |
| 75 | * Several WesternAnimation/DCUniverseAnimatedOriginalMovies have done references to Creator/WarnerBros-owned properties: |
| 76 | ** ''[[ComicBook/DCTheNewFrontier Justice League: The New Frontier]]'': There's a scene where Martian Manhunter shapeshifts into various characters he sees on TV. One of them is WesternAnimation/BugsBunny. |
| 77 | ** ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueCrisisOnTwoEarths'': When Batman uses the mech to challenge Superwoman, he causes one of its hands to perform the BringIt hand gesture that Neo and Morpheus used in ''Film/TheMatrix''. |
| 78 | ** ''WesternAnimation/BatmanUnderTheRedHood'': The Riddler is ordering around some very familiar looking [[Film/AClockworkOrange droogs]]. |
| 79 | ** ''WesternAnimation/BatmanYearOne'': This film changes some of the toys stolen from Loeb (originally [[LawyerFriendlyCameo Lawyer-Friendly Cameos]] of WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse and ''ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}}'' characters in [[ComicBook/BatmanYearOne the comic]]) into a [[WesternAnimation/TheHuckleberryHoundShow Huckleberry Hound]] and an WesternAnimation/ElmerFudd. |
| 80 | ** ''WesternAnimation/BatmanAssaultOnArkham'': Harley Quinn is introduced while watching ''WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow'' on her cellphone. |
| 81 | * ''WesternAnimation/FelixTheCatTheMovie'': The "Sly as a Fox" musical number. Creator/PannoniaFilmStudio actually did make a movie about [[Animation/VukTheLittleFox foxes]]. |
| 82 | * In ''WesternAnimation/GoWestALuckyLukeAdventure'', the cockroaches from ''WesternAnimation/OggyAndTheCockroaches'' have a cameo. French animation studio Creator/{{Xilam}} made both. |
| 83 | * In ''[[Animation/HappyFamily Happy Family: Snowball the Memory Gobbler]]'', one of the characters mentions wanting to see ''[[Film/PleasantGoatAndBigBigWolfILoveWolffy I Love Wolffy]]'', the most recent ''Animation/PleasantGoatAndBigBigWolf'' film at the time. Both are owned by Creator/CreativePowerEntertaining. |
| 84 | * Creator/{{Universal}} handled production of both ''WesternAnimation/MinionsTheRiseOfGru'' and ''Film/{{Jaws}}'', the latter of which is seen in the former when Gru makes a stink bomb and throws it into a theater auditorium just to have the whole thing for himself and his minions. |
| 85 | * ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGoToTheMovies'': Starfire recognizes the Warner Bros. water tower as the home of the [[WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}} Warner Siblings]]. Both this film and ''Animaniacs'', as you probably guessed already, were produced by Creator/WarnerBros. |
| 86 | * ''Animation/PleasantGoatAndBigBigWolfDunkForFuture'': Since the Chinese rights to ''WesternAnimation/{{Bernard}}'' are owned by ''Pleasant Goat'' owners Alpha Group Co., Ltd., the character can be seen watching Tiger Wing's first basketball game with Weslie. |
| 87 | [[/folder]] |
| 88 | |
| 89 | [[folder:Films -- Live-Action]] |
| 90 | * A giant poster of ''Film/CallMeBwana'' can be seen in ''Film/FromRussiaWithLove'' as Ali Kerim Bey and Film/JamesBond snipe Krilencu. Creator/EonProductions produced both films. |
| 91 | * Practically every major movie produced by Creator/ColumbiaPictures since 1989, when the Japanese electronics firm Creator/{{Sony}} acquired them and sister label Creator/TriStarPictures, has had these, often going into full-blown product placement (before Sony, Columbia was owned by Coca-Cola, which also did the product placement stuff). Sony's logo now appears ''before'' the film label the movie is distributed by, just to drive it in. Video releases have often carried advertisements for other Sony products. |
| 92 | ** Take ''Film/JumanjiWelcomeToTheJungle'' for example. Several references to Sony products appear throughout the film. For example, Spencer plays ''VideoGame/StreetFighterV'' on a Platform/PlayStation4 and has posters of ''VideoGame/Uncharted4AThiefsEnd'' and ''VideoGame/TheLastGuardian'' in his room, both of which are [=PlayStation=] exclusives. |
| 93 | ** The [[Film/{{Jumanji}} 1995 film]] had an ad for Sony's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7C7w7xmtIn4 Maximum Television]]" sets before the film, with the spokesman pointing out that without a Sony TV and speaker setup, you weren't getting the full sound and picture. |
| 94 | ** Creator/RogerEbert went on a particularly notable rant about this kind of ProductPlacement when he reviewed ''Film/LeonardPart6'' on ''Series/SiskelAndEbert'': |
| 95 | --->'''Ebert:''' In one scene, his 20-year-old daughter brings home a 66-year-old man that she wants to marry. [[Creator/BillCosby Cosby]] is appalled; this guy is robbing the cradle! What does he do? He calls for a sandwich and a Coke. And then he holds the Coke bottle prominently next to his face for the rest of the scene. First it says "Coca-Cola", and then the next shot, it says "Coke", in case you missed the point. Who released this movie? Creator/{{Columbia|Pictures}}. Who owns Columbia? Coca-Cola. What is Coca-Cola doing with this movie? They have a lot of products in this movie, Gene, that you can get a tie-in where you can get the product in connection with buying a ticket for the movie. I think that that is an all-time low: Bill Cosby, the richest man in show business, $67.5 million income last year, ''reduced'' to holding a Coca-Cola bottle next to his face in order to get a picture made at Columbia. He ought to be ashamed of himself. |
| 96 | * A lyric in the song "Who's Inside It" from ''Film/BarneysGreatAdventure'' makes a nod to another Creator/{{Universal}} film: |
| 97 | -->''Maybe it's a cousin of Film/{{ET|TheExtraTerrestrial}}'s?'' |
| 98 | * The second ''Film/{{Critters}}'' film has the second shape-shifting bounty hunter (identified as Lee) almost copy the likeness of [[Franchise/ANightmareOnElmStreet Freddy Krueger]] before Charlie gets them back to copying the appearance of a nude woman from a magazine centerfold. Both ''Critters'' and ''A Nightmare on Elm Street'' are film series by Creator/NewLineCinema. |
| 99 | * ''[[Film/AmericanPie American Pie 2]]'' contains a scene in which ''Series/TheAdventuresOfTimmyTheTooth'' plays on Jim's TV. This joke actually came about because of this trope: the creators wanted to use ''Series/{{Teletubbies}}'' for that scene, but they decided to instead go with a children's show that was also made by Universal (after not being able to get rights to ''Teletubbies''). |
| 100 | * ''Film/CliffordTheBigRedDog'', a Creator/{{Paramount}} release, features a character who uses a ''Franchise/SpongeBobSquarePants'' flash drive at one point. |
| 101 | * ''Film/DennisTheMenace Strikes Again'', a Creator/WarnerBros film, features plushes of [[WesternAnimation/SylvesterTheCatAndTweetyBird Tweety Bird]], WesternAnimation/YosemiteSam, WesternAnimation/PorkyPig, and Taz the Tasmanian Devil from ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' as prizes in the carnival. |
| 102 | * In ''Film/InstantFamily'', a girl holds a ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants''-themed knife. |
| 103 | * ''Film/Saw3D'': The reality TV show that Bobby and his crew are seen at is named "Daybreak", likely a reference to a past film distributed by Creator/{{Lionsgate}} titled ''Film/{{Daybreakers}}'', which was released the previous year to ''Saw 3D''[='=]s. |
| 104 | * ''Film/SonicTheHedgehog22022'' has Sonic call Knuckles “Clifford the Big Red Rage Monster”, a reference to Paramount distributing both ''Sonic'' and ''Clifford'''s live-action films. |
| 105 | * ''Film/MeanGirls2024'' contains two references to Nickelodeon, which Paramount owns: |
| 106 | ** A ''WesternAnimation/DoraTheExplorer'' doll is used to represent someone when Janice and Damian tell a story about Janice’s relationship with Regina. |
| 107 | ** Damian sings a slow, French version of [[Series/{{iCarly}} "Leave It All To Me"]] at the school talent show. |
| 108 | [[/folder]] |
| 109 | |
| 110 | [[folder:Literature]] |
| 111 | * ''Literature/AlanAlone'': In the illustrated prologue, Alan says that if he ever found the titular magic ghost from ''Hantu Silap Mata'', he would ask it to steal Mr. Nurie's mouth (because he won't stop singing late at night), to which Mr. Faisal replies that it's a fictional character and not a godlike creature anyway. The next panel advertises the book ''Hantu Silap Mata'', also written by Alif Firdaus Azis. |
| 112 | * ''Literature/CarnivalInAFix'': In the picture on the inside of the front cover, we see a ship full of [[Literature/PugsOfTheFrozenNorth pugs]], and another full of [[Literature/OliverAndTheSeawigs monkeys]]. There's also a girl in a space suit that brings to mind [[Literature/CakesInSpace Astra]]. And in chapter 6, a group of [[Literature/CakesInSpace Poglites]] are at the Lost Property Office demanding spoons. |
| 113 | [[/folder]] |
| 114 | |
| 115 | [[folder:Live-Action TV]] |
| 116 | * ''Series/{{CSINY}}'': In "Buzzkill," a billboard in Times Square advertising ''Series/{{Dexter}}'' can be seen in the background a few times. The shows aired concurrently on CBS. |
| 117 | * ''Series/Goosebumps1995'': In "[[Recap/Goosebumps1995S1E3TheCuckooClockOfDoom The Cuckoo Clock of Doom]]", when Michael is six years old, his father reads him ''Literature/CliffordTheBigRedDog'' as a bedtime story. Both ''Clifford'' and ''Goosebumps'' are properties of Scholastic Inc. |
| 118 | * ''Series/JandaKembang'': |
| 119 | ** In episode 5, the RT leader is watching fellow NET. drama series ''Cinta dan Rahasia'' when his TV antenna needs adjusting. |
| 120 | ** The footage used for the soap opera watched by Neneng and Seli in episode 8 comes from another NET. series ''Kesempurnaan Cinta''. |
| 121 | ** The motorcycle taxi that Malik uses in episode 19 is OK-JEK from NET. sitcom of the same name. |
| 122 | * Both ''Series/{{Jeopardy}}'' and ''Series/WheelOfFortune'' are produced by Sony, and ''Jeopardy!'' has made several references to ''Wheel''. For example, "Before & After" is a recurring ''Jeopardy!'' category that references ''Wheel'', and at one point, they featured a category called "Wheel of Jeopardy!" where the clue was given in the form of an unsolved ''Wheel of Fortune'' puzzle. |
| 123 | * ''Series/MimpiMetropolitan'' |
| 124 | ** Like in other NET. shows, the online motorcycle taxi service used by the characters are OK-JEK from NET. sitcom of the same name. |
| 125 | ** Since they share the same lead writer, the show sometimes references a previous NET.—Limelight collaboration ''Cinta dan Rahasia'', such as giving Mami Bibir the same birthday as Dimas from that show. |
| 126 | ** In episode 23, Mami Bibir watches ''Ini Talkshow'', also aired on NET., and comments on how funny it is. |
| 127 | * ''Series/OddSquad'': |
| 128 | ** There are two cross-references pertaining to Sinking Ship Entertainment. |
| 129 | *** In "The Void", one of the things Omar learns in order to be similar to Opal, Orla and Oswald is how to speak Spanish. He does this by watching a short clip of Mac and Sammy communicating in Spanish from ''Playdate'', which is produced by Sinking Ship Entertainment. Doubles as an ActorAllusion subversion, as Millie Davis played Molly in that show, but does not appear in "The Void." |
| 130 | *** "Slow Your Roll" has Opal, Omar and Orla come face-to-face with a creature known as a Madmelodia, which looks strikingly similar to the alien creature seen in ''Endlings'', a show also produced by Sinking Ship Entertainment. This is yet another Actor Allusion subversion similar to above—Michela Luci, who plays Orchid, also plays Tabby; however, she does not appear in the episode. |
| 131 | ** Besides those, in "The O Games", the song that Odd Todd whistles as the 25-Centigurp Dash begins is the opening theme to ''Series/MisterRogersNeighborhood''. Both shows share the same production company, Fred Rogers Productions (known as The Fred Rogers Company at the time of this episode's airing, and Family Communications when ''MRN'' was airing). |
| 132 | * In the ''Series/PlanetAjay'' episode "Planet Badjay", Ajay's EvilTwin Badjay [[HostileShowTakeover takes over the show]], leaving Ajay on Badjay's spaceship. Ajay presses several buttons in the ship to see if any of them teleport him back to Planet Ajay; one of the buttons plays the drum beat heard at the beginning of the theme song of ''Series/EastEnders''. ''[=EastEnders=]'' is a series produced by Creator/TheBBC, whose children's station Creator/{{CBBC}} aired ''Planet Ajay''. |
| 133 | * In an episode of ''Series/ThePractice'' a witness claims that he knows what time a certain thing happened because he was watching ''Series/BostonPublic'' at the time. This caused a ContinuitySnarl when ''The Practice'' and ''Boston Public'' had a crossover later on. |
| 134 | * Creator/{{CBBC}} series ''Series/SorryIveGotNoHead'' references fellow [[Creator/TheBBC BBC]] series ''Series/DoctorWho'' in a few episodes. |
| 135 | * In the Music/MrBlobby VHS "Blobbyvision", Mr. Blobby rides in Noddy's car. Both ''[[Series/NoelsHouseParty Noel's House Party]]'' (where Mr. Blobby originated from) and ''WesternAnimation/NoddysToylandAdventures'' aired on BBC. |
| 136 | * In TheFilmOfThePlay version of ''Theatre/PeterPanGoesWrong'', Laa-Laa and Po from ''Series/{{Teletubbies}}'' make a cameo. This production aired on BBC, which also aired ''Teletubbies''. |
| 137 | * ''Series/WhereInTheWorldIsCarmenSandiego'': |
| 138 | ** The series referenced fellow PBS series ''Series/MisterRogersNeighborhood'' twice: |
| 139 | *** A 1991 episode contained a cameo from X the Owl and Daniel Tiger. |
| 140 | *** The episode "Come Back With That Kibbutz, Toots!" contains a scene where the Chief gives away a Mister Rogers' Neighborhood record. Later in the same episode, the Chief sings "Won't You Be My Neighbor?" just as Greg comes out dressed up as Mister Rogers. |
| 141 | ** One episode was titled "Mining Crime Station", as a reference to ''Series/ShiningTimeStation'', which ran concurrently as a PBS neighbor. Amusingly, Lynne Thigpen previously appeared in the Broadway musical ''Working'' alongside Bobo Lewis, who had a recurring role on ''Shining Time Station'' as socialite and town gossip Midge Smoot. |
| 142 | * In the ''Series/InaiInaiBaa'' "Poupo's I Can Do It!" segment "Chirarin Po", Poupo and friends play with a toy that looks similar to Yakoro from the ''Fantane!'' segments of fellow NHK show ''Series/OkaasanToIssho''. |
| 143 | [[/folder]] |
| 144 | |
| 145 | [[folder:Newspaper Comics]] |
| 146 | * The Halloween 2002 strip of ''ComicStrip/MrPotatoHead'', which was co-created by Jim Davis, had Mr. Potato Head attempt to go trick-or-treating with his son Chip while dressed as Davis' character ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}. |

| 149 | [[folder:Pinball]] |
| 150 | * The AttractMode for Creator/{{Sega}} Pinball's ''Pinball/MaryShelleysFrankenstein'' shows Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog alongside the company's logo. After a few iterations, Sonic appears with big scars, like Frankenstein's other Creatures. |
| 151 | * Similarly, Sonic appears as an astronaut during ''Pinball/{{Apollo 13}}'''s attract mode. |
| 152 | * In addition, on ''Pinball/StarshipTroopers'' (also by Sega), Sonic can also appear as one of the Brain Bug's thoughts during the MatchSequence. |
| 153 | * One possible outcome in ''Pinball/CueBallWizard'''s "Where's the King?" VideoMode is Cactus Jack (from the Creator/{{Gottlieb}} table of the same name). |
| 154 | -->'''Cactus Jack:''' Surprise, tendafoot! |
| 155 | * The [[EasterEgg Candy Kodes]] in ''Pinball/WillyWonkaAndTheChocolateFactory'' have a few references to other Creator/JerseyJackPinball games: |
| 156 | ** One of them prints a message alluding to ''Film/TheHobbit'': |
| 157 | --->"Have you ever spelled dwarf in order during Orc Attack?" |
| 158 | ** Two others reference ''Pinball/DialedIn'': "Crazy!" (accompanied by an appropriate soundbite from that game) and "When you are Dialed In, look to the moon." |
| 159 | ** Two more reference ''[[Pinball/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanJerseyJack Pirates of the Caribbean]]'': |
| 160 | --->"Use random select to choose your character yarrr!"\ |
| 161 | "Have you found the 23rd character? Yarrr!" |
| 162 | * One of the alternate dimensions in ''Pinball/RickAndMorty'' is themed after ''Pinball/TotalNuclearAnnihilation'' (also made by Scott Danesi and Creator/SpookyPinball), emulating its music, lighting, and rules. |
| 163 | * [[https://sternpinball.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/AIQ-Rule-Sheet.pdf The official rule sheet]] for ''Pinball/AvengersInfinityQuest'' describes [[WizardMode Trophy Mania]] as "the super duper mega extreme wizard mode", alluding to the name of the final wizard mode in the older Creator/{{Stern}} game ''Pinball/TheSimpsonsPinballParty''. |

| 167 | * Back when Wrestling/RingOfHonor and Full Impact Pro were "sister promotions", the "CrazyHomelessPerson" who interfered on the behalf of Wrestling/JimmyJacobs and The Age Of The Fall in ROH was Milo Beasley, a longstanding bum/minion of FIP who had previously "served" indie legend Wrestling/CMPunk. The only member of the FIP Age Of The Fall that was respectively recognized in ROH was Radiant Rain, on account of her and Lacey working as The Minnesota/International Home Wrecking crew in ROH's other former sister promotion, Wrestling/{{SHIMMER}}. |

| 171 | * ''Series/DonkeyHodie'': |
| 172 | ** In the episode "Good Dog School", Purple Panda holds up a picture that he drew of Bob Dog in order to remind him of how good he was at staying still for a picture and therefore he can stay still at his Good Dog School graduation. The picture he holds up is in the same art style as ''WesternAnimation/NatureCat'', which is also by Spiffy Pictures. It actually looks a lot like the design of the dog Hal from that series, albeit with Bob's features instead. |
| 173 | ** The main conflict of "Cheesy Con" is spurred by Donkey spraining her left foot on a toy vehicle. This exact thing happened to Daniel in the ''WesternAnimation/DanielTigersNeighborhood'' episode "Daniel Feels Better", which was also made by Fred Rogers Productions. |
| 174 | ** In "A Donkey Hodie Halloween", an owl that resembles O the Owl from ''Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood'', albeit with a purple stomach and yellow eyes, appears at the beginning and end of the episode. |
| 175 | * ''Series/FraggleRock'': In "The Cavern of Lost Dreams", Sprocket tries his paw at making his own dog food and, at one point, imitates the Swedish Chef from ''Series/TheMuppetShow'', another Creator/JimHenson series. |
| 176 | * ''Series/LambChopsPlayAlong'' made two jokes referencing fellow PBS series ''Mister Rogers' Neighborhood'': |
| 177 | ** "The Planet Yzarc" ends with an alien asking for directions to ''Mister Rogers' Neighborhood''. |
| 178 | ** In another episode, Shari Lewis asks Lamb Chop if she's ever wished upon a star, and she replies she hasn't, but she wrote a letter to Mister Rogers once. |
| 179 | * ''Series/TheNoddyShop'': |
| 180 | ** "Find Your Own Song" features a KidsShowMascotParody named Robbie [=MacRhino=], a spoof of the main character of fellow Creator/PBSKids series ''Series/BarneyAndFriends''. |
| 181 | ** "Kate Loves A Parade" mentions a location from ''Series/ShiningTimeStation'', also created by Rick Siggelkow. |
| 182 | * ''Series/SesameStreet'': |
| 183 | ** They have made several Creator/PBSKids cross-references: |
| 184 | *** Bert composes a letter to Series/MisterRogersNeighborhood in one skit. There was also an episode where Big Bird met Mister Rogers. |
| 185 | *** [[Series/LambChopsPlayAlong Shari Lewis and Lamb Chop]] cameoed in one ''Around The Corner''-era episode. |
| 186 | *** One episode had a worm in a parade wear a Barney costume. He even hums "I Love You" when putting it on. |
| 187 | ** They've also done one for another Creator/SesameWorkshop series: Right before Big Bird's Fairy Godperson left in the 2006 episode "Big Bird Wishes The Adults Were Kids", he gets a call on his wand phone, telling us that [[WesternAnimation/DragonTales there are two kids who want to fly with dragons.]] He even repeats their {{Invocation}} word for word. |

| 190 | [[folder: Radio]] |
| 191 | * Lampshaded in a September 2023 episode of ''More or Less'', Creator/TheBBC Radio 4 show about numbers in the news, which ended a peice about how many generations you would need to actually reach the year 3000 (many more than Music/{{Busted}}'s great-great-great-granddaughter) with presenter Tim Harford reminding listeners that Busted were performing at the Radio 2 Party in the Park that weekend. This was followed by a computer voice saying "BBC network co-operation appraisal goal achieved." |
| 192 | [[/folder]] |
| 193 | |
| 194 | [[folder:Theatre]] |
| 195 | * The Radio City Christmas Spectacular includes a 3D video of Santa flying over New York, at one point passing over Madison Square Garden during a Knicks game. The Madison Square Garden company also owns the Radio City Music Hall, making this a form of cross-promotion. |
| 196 | [[/folder]] |
| 197 | |
| 198 | [[folder:Toys]] |
| 199 | * ''Toys/HeroFactory'': One of the online games has "S-L-I-Z-E-R-S" as an access code, with ''Toys/{{Slizer}}'' being the name of a previous Franchise/{{LEGO}} toyline. |
| 200 | * ''Franchise/MyLittlePony'': |
| 201 | ** Some of the G1 First Tooth ponies come with a Glo-Worm as an accessory. Glo-Worms are also made by Hasbro. |
| 202 | ** The Sing And Dance Pinkie Pie toy sings "Come Along" from ''WesternAnimation/CandyLandTheGreatLollipopAdventure'', which not only is based on a game by Hasbro, but was also made by the same company who made the G3 ''My Little Pony'' movies, Sabella Dern. |
| 203 | [[/folder]] |
| 204 | |
| 205 | [[folder:Video Games]] |
| 206 | * The building icons in ''VideoGame/AgeOfEmpiresII [[UpdatedRerelease Definitive Edition]]'' feature the famous "Bliss" wallpaper from Windows XP as the background. Microsoft owns [=AoE=], Windows, and the rights to the wallpaper. |
| 207 | * Alan's hardboiled detective novels in ''VideoGame/AlanWake'' are heavily based on Remedy's earlier ''VideoGame/MaxPayne''. ''VideoGame/QuantumBreak'' also has a number of references to ''Alan Wake'', although ''VideoGame/{{Control}}'' upgrades it to a full-on SharedUniverse. |
| 208 | * The [[Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment Namco]] game ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpine_Racer Alpine Racer]] 3'' has VideoGame/PacMan as the dot on the question mark denoting "random" on the character select, Pac-Man and the ghosts appear on the time comparison every time you reach a checkpoint, and [[spoiler:VideoGame/{{Klonoa}}]] appears as an unlockable SecretCharacter. |
| 209 | * ''VideoGame/AstraHunterZosma'': |
| 210 | ** Zosma states that his peers call him [[VideoGame/SomaSpirits "Purple Dissonance"]] in order to annoy him. |
| 211 | ** The Fauxma Spirits miniboss team is a reference to the protagonists of ''VideoGame/SomaSpirits'', but aren't actually Heart and Soul themselves. |
| 212 | ** The 38th treasure is the Cooler Crusader's glove. |
| 213 | ** The 45th treasure is Zero's hat from ''VideoGame/SomaUnion'' |
| 214 | ** The 47th treasures is [[spoiler:Absolution's mask]] from the Soma duology. |
| 215 | ** The final treasure is the jewel from the logo/title screen of ''Crescent Prism''. |
| 216 | * Creator/{{Capcom}} likes doing this with their games. For example, in ''VideoGame/GodHand'', one of the mini-bosses is wielding Nevan the electric guitar from ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry3DantesAwakening'', one of the names of the chihuahua in the dog race minigame is [[VideoGame/{{Okami}} Amaterasu]], and the Mad Midget Five miniboss is a reference to ''VideoGame/ViewtifulJoe''. |
| 217 | * ''VisualNovel/Case03TrueCannibalBoy'': The ''VideoGame/PeacemakerSeries'', which is also developed by Sounding Stone and [=MaouCat=], is a JRPG series in this setting that Sally and Lily are fans of, though [[spoiler:this doesn't stop Nya from reincarnating Jade into the Peacemaker universe]]. |
| 218 | * ''VideoGame/ChibiRobo'': Bandai-Namco co-produced this game. You can receive a Toys/{{Tamagotchi}} toy (another Bandai property) as an item for [[spoiler:completing Captain Plankbeard's sidequests]] and can interact with it. |
| 219 | * ''VideoGame/ChocoboRacing'' has tons of ''Final Fantasy'' cameos, as you might expect, but it also taps into two unrelated games for secret characters -- Aya Brea from ''VideoGame/ParasiteEve'' and Jack from ''VideoGame/The3DBattlesOfWorldRunner''. |
| 220 | * In ''VideoGame/DaytonaUSA'', the Beginner track has a stone wall near the final curve that has Franchise/{{Sonic|The Hedgehog}} carved into it, and the Expert track has a statue of [[VideoGame/VirtuaFighter Jeffry McWild]]. |
| 221 | * ''Franchise/{{Digimon}}'', being a [[SpearCounterpart male counterpart]] to ''Franchise/{{Tamagotchi}}'', was practically contractually obligated to make at least one ''Tamagotchi'' reference since its inception. Both franchises are from Bandai. |
| 222 | ** ''Tamagotchi'' character Oyajitchi serves as the inspiration for ''Digimon'' character Nanimon's appearance. |
| 223 | ** Wizardmon's staff and Belphemon's Sleep Mode clock are both modeled after Tamagotchi devices. |
| 224 | * ''VideoGame/FallGuys'': |
| 225 | ** Legacy Season 4 introduced a costume based on the character SCOUT from the visual novel ''VisualNovel/MurderByNumbers2020'', along with a color palette based on the game -- both titles are developed by Mediatonic. |
| 226 | ** There are also in-game costumes based on games published by Creator/DevolverDigital (which originally published Fall Guys before it was bought by Creator/EpicGames), namely: ''VideoGame/EnterTheGungeon'', ''VideoGame/HotlineMiami'', ''VideoGame/MyFriendPedro'', ''VideoGame/GatoRoboto'', ''VideoGame/{{GRIS}}'', and ''VideoGame/TheMessenger2018''. |
| 227 | * ''[[VideoGame/{{Forza}} Forza Horizon]]'' really gets in on this from Horizon 4 onwards, with a ''Franchise/{{Halo}}''-themed mission, as well as unlockable novelty car horns from ''Franchise/{{Halo}}'', ''VideoGame/SeaOfThieves'' and ''VideoGame/KillerInstinct'', along with the (in)famous Windows XP shutdown noise and the "Wololo" voice clip from ''VideoGame/AgeOfEmpires''. Horizon 5 expands upon this; the horns return, along with new contributions from ''VideoGame/BanjoKazooie'', ''VideoGame/OriAndTheBlindForest'', ''VideoGame/{{Battletoads}}'', ''VideoGame/TheOuterWorlds'', and even ''VideoGame/{{DOOM}}'', as well as the Windows 10 notification sound, the classic "ta-da!" shutdown sound from [=Win3.1=] and 95, and even the Microsoft Teams ringtone! Horizon 3 also marked the debut of a drivable Warthog from ''Franchise/{{Halo}}'', which returned in 4 and 5. |
| 228 | * ''VideoGame/FroggersJourneyTheForgottenRelic'': In reference to another classic Konami arcade classic, a toy model of Vic Viper from the ''{{VideoGame/Gradius}}'' series appears in Dusty's workshop. |
| 229 | * In ''VideoGame/GrowingUp'', one of the shops at North Pine Galleria's called [[VideoGame/OhSirTheInsultSimulator "Oh...Sir"]], referencing one of Vile Monarch's other games. There's also an arcade cabinet named after that game in Starcade 80, [[spoiler:and you even make another one if you become a game dev studio CEO in the end.]] |
| 230 | * ''VideoGame/Haven2020'' depicts The Stranger, the protagonist of [[VideoGame/{{Furi}} another game]] by The Game Bakers, as one of the characters of the FictionalBoardGame that Kay and Yu can play together. |
| 231 | * Since Innersloth and [=PuffballsUnited=] produces both the ''VideoGame/HenryStickminSeries'' and ''VideoGame/AmongUs'', the two games often reference each other. |
| 232 | ** From ''Stickmin'': ''Completing the Mission'' has a sidequest that has you find crewmate plushies hidden throughout the many routes in the game. A poster depicting the Imposter also appears in ''Mission'', and one of the fails is a direct ''Among Us'' reference, to name a few. |
| 233 | ** From ''Among Us'': There are multiple pets, hats and costumes lifted directly from the various entries in the ''Stickmin'' series, among other things. The fourth map is even themed after the airship belonging to the recurring Toppat Clan. |
| 234 | * Creator/HumongousEntertainment was ''extremely'' fond of these. Every game featured at least half a dozen cameos or references to their other works. |
| 235 | * Some cards in ''VideoGame/IWasATeenageExocolonist'' have references to other games published by Finji: |
| 236 | ** The Coloring the World card features VideoGame/{{Chicory|AColorfulTale}}'s Brush. |
| 237 | ** The Organizing the Storage Room card features VideoGame/{{Wilmot|sWarehouse}}, and the depot clerk event that rewards it to you references the box-sorting game. |
| 238 | ---> ''At ''least'' it's all in your holopalm and you have liftbots to help physically move the boxes. You can organize it all by moving icons around your screen, just like a holopalm game!'' |
| 239 | * In the ''VideoGame/{{Klonoa}}'' series, the titular character's hat depicts VideoGame/PacMan on it; both game series are Namco creations. |
| 240 | * ''VideoGame/LEGOLegendsOfChimaOnline'': A possible player name component is "Stromling", which are the {{Mooks}} from previous Lego MMORPG ''VideoGame/LegoUniverse''. |
| 241 | * ''VideoGame/LEGOStuntRally'': |
| 242 | ** [[Toys/LEGOAdventurers Johnny Thunder and Baron von Barron]] (or at least a character resembling him) can be seen in the intro cutscene. |
| 243 | ** Billboards advertising ''LEGO Loco'' are among the city's scenery. |
| 244 | ** [[AllThereInTheManual The game's manual]] says that Radium was once a scientist for the Toys/RockRaiders until he was caught in one of his own radioactive experiments. |
| 245 | * Psycho Mantis is known for this in ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'' and its [=GameCube=] remake, ''The Twin Snakes''. By reading your memory card, he'll comment on your enjoyment of other Konami or Nintendo games that he finds save files for. |
| 246 | * The remakes of Lucasarts' ''VideoGame/TheSecretOfMonkeyIsland'' and ''VideoGame/MonkeyIsland2LeChucksRevenge'' are subtitled "Special Edition", a nod to the ''Franchise/StarWars'' Special Editions. |
| 247 | * ''VideoGame/{{Mewgenics}}'': One Mook you can throw down with is Cereus Peashy- the star of a little-known flash plataformer made years ago by the same creator: Creator/EdmundMcMillen. |
| 248 | * The Bandai video game ''VideoGame/MonsterParty'' features a boss modeled after one of the toys from ''Gegebomajuu'', a line of model kits with gross-out features created by Bandai. Specifically, it is the infamous "Sorry, I'm dead" boss, which is modeled after the Torigaran toy. |
| 249 | * The ''VideoGame/MonsterRancher'' franchise had a gimmick where players would insert a CD (and later a DVD) into their game console in order to spawn a unique monster with the data on the disc as a source. Naturally, Creator/{{Tecmo}} allowed their own games to create especially unique monsters, with available sources including the ''VideoGame/{{Deception}}'' series, ''VideoGame/DeadOrAlive'', and ''VideoGame/FatalFrame'', among others. |
| 250 | * Tying in with the above-mentioned connections between Midway and Williams, ''VideoGame/MortalKombat3'' had a couple of Kombat Kodes that gave hints for the pinball tables ''Pinball/JackBot'' and ''Pinball/NoFearDangerousSports'' (likely baffling people who weren't into pinball and/or aware of the connections). |
| 251 | * ''VideoGame/NEOTheWorldEndsWithYou'' has the [[ShowWithinAShow in-game game]] [=FanGO=], which is basically ''VideoGame/PokemonGO'' with ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' monsters instead of Pokemon. Such monsters include [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyV nutkin]] and [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII pupu]]. Also, Rindo's phone has moogle, cactuar and tonberry stickers in its communications app. |
| 252 | * ''VideoGame/Persona5'' features "[[VideoGame/LikeADragon Dragon: Like a Yakuza]]" as one of its [[ShowWithinAShow in-game films]]. Both Creator/{{Atlus}} (''Persona'''s developer) and Creator/RyuGaGotokuStudio (''Like a Dragon'' series developer) are under Creator/{{Sega}}'s umbrella. |
| 253 | * ''VideoGame/PrinceOfPersiaWarriorWithin'' has a few hidden joke weapons. One of them is a cartoonish White Glove, which is clearly borrowed from the title character of Ubisoft's fellow series ''Videogame/{{Rayman}}''. |
| 254 | * Creator/GameFreak, the developers of ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'', often puts references to their other works in the games, especially to ''VideoGame/{{Pulseman}}''. To note: |
| 255 | ** The ship S.S. Anne from ''VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue'' is named after Saint Anne, the computer from which Pulseman was born. |
| 256 | ** The move Volt Tackle has the same Japanese name as Pulseman's signature attack, Volteccer (ボルテッカー). |
| 257 | ** Rotom, first introduced in ''VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl'', has a similar appearance to Pulseman, especially to his pointed helmet and affinity for electric attacks. Also in ''Diamond and Pearl'', the evil Team Galactic has the same Japanese name as the Galaxy Gang (ギンガ団 ''Ginga-dan'') in ''Pulseman''. |
| 258 | ** Boltund is an Electric-type dog Pokémon introduced in ''VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield''. In Japanese, it is named "Pulsewan" (パルスワン), which sounds ''very'' similar to "Pulseman". |
| 259 | ** Outside of ''Pulseman'', another Game Freak title, ''VideoGame/HarmoKnight'', includes multiple bonus stages and easter eggs referencing ''Pokémon''. |
| 260 | * In ''VideoGame/PuyoPuyoTetris'' from Creator/{{Sega}}, it's possible to purchase an alternate appearance for tetrominoes that turns them into [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]] heads. And in [[VideoGame/PuyoPuyoTetris2 the sequel]], Sonic himself becomes a GuestFighter in the first post-launch update. |
| 261 | * In ''VideoGame/RedDeadRedemption2'', one of Dutch's aliases is "Aiden O'Malley", which happens to be the name of a minor character from ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV'', another Rockstar title. |
| 262 | * ''VideoGame/RidgeRacer'' loves doing this, referencing their other games via car names, decals and even tracks name-dropping their other games. Especially prominent in ''Type 4'', whose Story Mode has racing teams all named after Namco's arcade classics: VideoGame/{{Dig|Dug}} Racing Team, Micro Mouse VideoGame/{{Mappy}}, VideoGame/{{Pac|Man}} Racing Club and RT [[VideoGame/{{Xevious}} Solvalou]], as well as a track named [[VideoGame/{{Klonoa}} Phantomile]] and Pac-Man himself appearing as a secret car. |
| 263 | * ''VideoGame/RiverCityGirls'': To fellow Creator/WayforwardTechnologies game ''VideoGame/CatGirlWithoutSalad'': There's graffiti of the protagonist Kebako: |
| 264 | ** Outside the school. |
| 265 | ** At the entrance to the Basketball Court in Downtown. |
| 266 | * The ''Platform/{{Roblox}}'' game ''Mad Games'' includes a mini-game based off of the ''Roblox'' game ''The Mad Murderer''. Both games were made by the group Mad Studios. |
| 267 | * In ''[[VideoGame/StreetsOfRage Streets of Rage 4]]'', players who have access to Max from the Mr. X Nightmare DLC will sometimes hear him shout "[[GratuitousEnglish Drop kikku!]]" when performing one mid-air. This is a reference to Guard Crush Games' own ''VideoGame/StreetsOfFury'', whom also co-developed ''Streets of Rage 4'', and the voice-over line came from the character MC Manhattan from said game. |
| 268 | * ''VideoGame/SuperMarioRPG'' (developed by Creator/{{Square| Enix}}soft) has a {{Superboss}} that is a lengthy homage to contemporary ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' games: he's surrounded by four crystals (mirroring the {{Plot Coupon}}s of several early ''Final Fantasy'' titles), [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12rOdMEDP4o his fight music]] is a rendition of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIV''[='s=] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kl5D9mVy7js boss theme]], and he mentions hailing from a two-dimensional realm [[https://legendsoflocalization.com/culex-is-quite-different-in-japanese-super-mario-rpg in the Japanese version]] (contrasting the ''Mario RPG'' 3D art style). |
| 269 | * ''VideoGame/ATinyStickerTale'' has various references to the developers' earlier game ''Lonesome Village'' which imply that the two games may take place in the same universe, although it's ultimately left ambiguous. Edward mentions that he has a friend named Earl who lives in Lonesome Village -- in that game, Earl the owl was the first NPC whom the player saves. Both games also have characters named Baran who look quite similar to each other but while ''Lonesome Village'''s Baran was [[spoiler:an evil cult leader and the game's BigBad]], here he is a friendly, elderly hermit, making it a stretch (although not impossible) that they are the same person. |
| 270 | * Creator/{{Falcom}} does this in ''VideoGame/TokyoXanadu'' with their ShowWithinAShow Magical Girl Alisa, which features Rean and Alisa, two main characters from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfHeroesTrailsOfColdSteel''. The costumes they wear in the anime are also references to their DLC costumes from the second Cold Steel game. |
| 271 | * In ''VideoGame/{{Zuma}}'s Revenge'', one of the boards exclusive to Blitz Mode takes place in a garden where zombies from ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombies'' occasionally appear; both games are published by Creator/PopCapGames. |
| 272 | * ''VideoGame/TellMeWhy'' features posters in one segment that reference developer Dontnod's previous games: |
| 273 | ** One is an ad for a film company with a blue butterfly logo. The tagline is [[VideoGame/LifeIsStrange "Life is weird."]] |
| 274 | ** Another is a poster for Jax Energy Drink, which has a robot panda as a mascot. This a reference to Jax the Robot Panda from ''VideoGame/RememberMe''. Tyler mentions that he tried the drink once and his memories didn't make sense afterwards, referencing the protagonist's power to "remix" peoples' memories. |
| 275 | ** Finally, there's a poster for Red Queen wine. While looking at it, Tyler asks [[VideoGame/{{Vampyr}} "What is glass but tortured sand?"]] |
| 276 | * ''VideoGame/{{Unpacking}}'': One of the protagonist's action figures is that of VideoGame/AssaultAndroidCactus, the main character from the eponymous game also developed by Witch Beam. |
| 277 | * In The Futzu Tower stage of ''VideoGame/SolatoroboRedTheHunter'', you can see the logo to the [=CyberConnectCorp=] (not the actual Creator/CyberConnect2 themselves, but the fictitious company prominent in the ''Franchise/DotHack'' series) in some of the areas. Seems pretty harmless, but those who knows their ''.hack'' lore can probably go on an essay on why that could be a ''bad'' thing for that game's world. |
| 278 | * An interesting bit of videogame triva is that [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic's]] first appearance was actually as a dangling toy on the rearview mirror in Sega's arcade game ''VideoGame/RadMobile''. |
| 279 | ** In the Sonic series proper, there have been many references to ''VideoGame/NightsIntoDreams'', another series developed by Creator/SonicTeam. The Casinopolis level of ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure'' features a [=NiGHTS=]-themed pinball machine, including a physical appearance by [=NiGHTS=] themselves. ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' introduces the [=NiGHTS=] Chao, a Chao with [=NiGHTS=]’ iconic purple color and jester hat. ''VideoGame/SonicSuperstars'' includes a Metal [=NiGHTS=] as one of the design options for its multiplayer mode Prototype. |
| 280 | * ''VideoGame/{{Transistor}}'': Red has toys referencing Creator/SupergiantGames' previous game, ''VideoGame/{{Bastion}}'': A Windbag and a Cael Hammer in her apartment. |
| 281 | * ''VideoGame/SunsetOverdrive'': During the opening credits an advertisement for a "Moon System 94" game console can be seen, with the listed games being references to nearly all of Creator/InsomniacGames' prior releases at that point: |
| 282 | ** Rivetor FMV (''VideoGame/{{Disruptor}}'') |
| 283 | ** Flyro the Wagon (''VideoGame/SpyroTheDragon1998'') |
| 284 | ** Flyro 2: Flipto's Gauge (''VideoGame/Spyro2RiptosRage'') |
| 285 | ** Flyro 3: Gear on the Wagon (''VideoGame/SpyroYearOfTheDragon'') |
| 286 | ** Catchet + Frank (''VideoGame/RatchetAndClank'') |
| 287 | ** Catchet + Frank: Going Again (''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankGoingCommando'') |
| 288 | ** Catchet + Frank: Round Up Your Decimal (''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankUpYourArsenal'') |
| 289 | ** Catchet: Dreadlocks (''VideoGame/RatchetDeadlocked'') |
| 290 | ** Persistance: Stall of Man (''VideoGame/ResistanceFallOfMan'') |
| 291 | ** Catchet + Frank Moocher: Rules of Seduction (''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankFutureToolsOfDestruction'') |
| 292 | ** Catchet + Frank Moocher: Blessed With Booty (''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankFutureQuestForBooty'') |
| 293 | ** Persistence: 2 (''VideoGame/Resistance2'') |
| 294 | ** Catchet + Frank Moocher: Snack'n Time (''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankFutureACrackInTime'') |
| 295 | ** Persistence 3 (''VideoGame/Resistance3'') |
| 296 | ** Catchet + Frank: 4-Play (''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankAll4One'') |
| 297 | ** Chowdernauts (''VideoGame/{{Outernauts}}'') |
| 298 | ** Overstrike (''VideoGame/{{Fuse}}'') |
| 299 | ** Catchet + Frank: Into the Texas (''VideoGame/RatchetAndClankIntoTheNexus'') |
| 300 | * Level 7-3 of ''[[VideoGame/{{Scribblenauts}} Super Scribblenauts]]'' has you giving ''Film/TheWizardOfOz'' characters what they wish for. ''The Wizard of Oz'' wasn't produced by Warner Bros., but its rights are owned by them. They also own ''Scribblenauts''. |
| 301 | [[/folder]] |
| 302 | |
| 303 | [[folder:Web Animation]] |
| 304 | * One episode of ''WebAnimation/LetsGoTamagotchi'' has Chamametchi transforming into a superhero with a costume based on Cure Dream from ''Anime/YesPrettyCure5'', another Bandai series. |
| 305 | * The ''WebAnimation/QueerDuck'' episode "B.S. I Love You" features a cameo by Abraham Lincoln as depicted in ''Hard Drinkin' Lincoln'', which was another animated series created for Icebox.com. |
| 306 | [[/folder]] |
| 307 | |
| 308 | [[folder:Web Videos]] |
| 309 | * In the ''ARG/GenerationLoss'' episode "The Spirit of the Cabin", there's a literal dollhouse recreation of the set from ''WebVideo/Jerma985Dollhouse'', which was also produced by Creator/JKProductions. |
| 310 | [[/folder]] |
| 311 | |
| 312 | [[folder:Western Animation]] |
| 313 | * ''WesternAnimation/ThreeTwoOnePenguins'': |
| 314 | ** In the episode "Trouble on Planet Wait-Your-Turn", Michelle says that she and Jason stopped at Burger Bell on their way to the cottage. Burger Bell first appeared in one of the Silly Songs in ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales'', from Big Idea who also created ''3-2-1 Penguins!''. The episode also features a vacuum cleaner that sounds and looks like Larry The Cucumber, one of the main characters of ''[=VeggieTales=]''. |
| 315 | ** In "More Is More", one of the comics Jason suggests the penguins read is ''Minnesota Cuke'', based on the ''[=VeggieTales=]'' episode of the same name. There is also a joke where the characters make up names for superpowers and Kevin suggests "Plunger head", a reference to [=LarryBoy=], who has plunger ears on his costume. |
| 316 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'': |
| 317 | ** One of the lyrics in "I Am The Very Model Of A Cartoon Individual" mentions several other Warner Brothers cartoon characters: Tweety Bird, Daffy Duck and Babs and Buster Bunny. |
| 318 | ** In "PottyEmergency", a poster of Gossamer from ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' is seen outside the movie theater. In the coloring book adapting the same episode, Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck are seen as posters. |
| 319 | ** In the episode "Take My Siblings, Please", Wakko sings the theme to ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'', which is also a Warner Brothers cartoon. |
| 320 | ** The cast of ''Tiny Toon Adventures'' show up in "The Big Wrap Party Tonight". |
| 321 | ** The following company cross references occur in [[WesternAnimation/Animaniacs2020 the reboot]]: |
| 322 | *** In "Suspended Animation", the Warners accidentally bump into ComicBook/{{Batman}} and an {{expy}} of ''Literature/HarryPotter''. Warner Brothers owns the rights to make movies and TV shows based on ''Batman'' and ''Harry Potter''. |
| 323 | *** In "Suffragette City", many WB cartoon characters such as the Looney Tunes and Babs and Buster appear to march for cartoons to have the right to vote. |
| 324 | *** In one segment in Season 2, WesternAnimation/PepeLePew makes a cameo -- [[DeathByCameo only to end up erased]]. |
| 325 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'': |
| 326 | ** In the episode "Attack of the Turbo Tibbles", while D.W. goes to get her mother to help fix the Mary Moo Cow tape they were watching earlier, Tommy and Timmy switch through the television channels to find something to watch. One of the shows they find is a parody of ''WesternAnimation/TheBusyWorldOfRichardScarry'' where Huckle and Lowly are bats sleeping on a ceiling. Both ''The Busy World of Richard Scarry'' and ''Arthur'' were produced by Creator/CookieJarEntertainment, known as Cinar back when the episode originally aired. |
| 327 | ** Another Cinar reference happens in "Jenna's Bedtime Blues": When Jenna [[ColdTurkeysAreEverywhere tries to get her mind off bedwetting]], one of the programs she turns on features puppets that look similar to some of the puppets in ''Series/WimziesHouse''. |
| 328 | ** The show also loved making references to ''Series/{{Teletubbies}}'', which also aired on its' American (Creator/PBSKids) and Canadian (TV Ontario) broadcasters. In fact, there were at least three different parodies of ''Teletubbies'' that appeared throughout its' run! |
| 329 | ** Mary Moo Cow is a spoof of fellow Creator/PBSKids show ''Series/BarneyAndFriends'', right down to her theme song being sung ToTheTuneOf a well-known kids' song. |
| 330 | ** "The Contest" has two examples of this trope: |
| 331 | *** "Andy And Company", the ''Arthur'' {{expy}} the story contest is for, resembles ''[[ComicStrip/LittleLulu The Little Lulu Show]]'' in its' artstyle. The DW clone also dresses like the titular character. |
| 332 | *** During Muffy's story, Muffy wears a costume that resembles [[Series/{{Teletubbies}} Dipsy]], causing Buster to call her "the fifth Teletubby". |
| 333 | ** "And Now Let's Talk To Some Kids" has a show called "The Magic Toolbox", a reference to fellow PBS Kids show ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicSchoolBus''. |
| 334 | * A hunter in the arctic in the Chilly Willy cartoon "Chilly Chums" laughs in relief after he's still intact after swallowing a grenade and it goes off. His laugh is so similar to WesternAnimation/WoodyWoodpecker's that Woody himself shows up to take umbrage. |
| 335 | * ''WesternAnimation/DennisTheMenace (1986)'' features references to other cartoons produced by Creator/DiCEntertainment at the time: |
| 336 | ** In several episodes, one of the characters hums the ''WesternAnimation/InspectorGadget'' theme song. Dennis hums it in one episode, and in several other episodes, Mr. Wilson hums it. In "The Big Candied Apple", the captain of the ferry hums it. Mrs. Wilson hums it in "Up Up and Away (From Here)" and "A Moving Experience", and Margaret hums it in "Charmed I'm Sure!". |
| 337 | ** One episode of the series is titled "Ghost Blusters", and in "Dennis the Genius", Dennis creates a ghost that bears a strong resemblance to Slimer. Both episodes also feature a sound-alike of the ''Ghostbusters'' theme song. ''WesternAnimation/TheRealGhostbusters'' was one of the cartoons produced by [=DiC=] at the time. |
| 338 | ** In several episodes, the theme to ''WesternAnimation/TheLittles'' plays; in "Big Baby", it plays when Dennis agrees to babysit Sylvester, the infant son of Mrs. Atkins. In "Dennis the Businessman", it plays when Mr. Wilson turns his TV on, only to find every channel has cartoons on it. In "G.I. George", it plays when Dennis and Mr. Wilson go to a soldier union, and in "The Martians are Coming", it plays on the radio. |
| 339 | ** In the 1993 series episode, "Caution! Boy at Work", the "Screech", "Jump", and "Ring" sound effects from ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1'' can be heard when Dennis plays an arcade game at Hasty Mart. At the time, [=DiC=] had produced two different animated series based on the ''[[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]]'' games; ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog'' and ''WesternAnimation/SonicTheHedgehogSatAM''. |
| 340 | * ''WesternAnimation/FetchWithRuffRuffman'': One of the phrases Ruff uses at the end of the Season 4 intro, after Chet the mouse destroys the set for the intro, is "You know, I bet WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}} doesn't have to deal with stuff like this". Both shows air on Creator/PBSKids and are produced by WGBH Boston. |
| 341 | * One episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'' has Fred and Wilma going on a picnic. Their picnic basket is stolen by fellow Creator/HannaBarbera character WesternAnimation/YogiBear. |
| 342 | * ''WesternAnimation/{{Freakazoid}}'': |
| 343 | ** In the first episode, [[WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}} Yakko, Wakko, and Dot]] show up and sing a song called "Freakzoid and Friends" to the tune of the ''Animaniacs'' theme song. |
| 344 | ** Another episode had Wakko and [[WesternAnimation/PinkyAndTheBrain the Brain]] argue over which of their cartoon is Creator/StevenSpielberg's favorite. They go to Steven himself to ask who simply says, "Who are you people?". |
| 345 | * Creator/FreshTV's cartoons provide plenty of examples, which might not be too much of a surprise given that a lot of these shows featured the same people working on them (notably Jennifer Pertsch and Tom [=McGillis=], who created three of the company's four animated shows). |
| 346 | ** Several ''WesternAnimation/{{Sixteen}}'' references in ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama''. |
| 347 | *** In the ''Action'' episode "Dial M for Merger", when Chris announces the merge's arrival, the contestants briefly recreate the intro to ''6teen'', complete with the original theme song. |
| 348 | *** The ''World Tour'' episode "Broadway, Baby" has a brief moment where Lindsay mentions shopping at the Khaki Barn, a store that appears prominently in ''6teen'' as the workplace of Nikki Wong. |
| 349 | *** ''WesternAnimation/TotalDramaPresentsTheRidonculousRace'': In a confessional in "Dude Buggies", [=MacArthur=] drops the name of her babysitter as Jennifer Masterson, although whether she was literally referring to Jen from ''6teen'' is a bit unclear. |
| 350 | ** ''WesternAnimation/{{Stoked}}'': In the Season 1 episode "A Prank Too Far", the intro to ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama Action'' can be seen on a TV screen. |
| 351 | ** On ''WesternAnimation/{{Grojband}}'', Corey Riffin's beanie is decorated with the same skull that is seen on Duncan's shirt in ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama''. It's also worth noting that ''Grojband'' creator Todd Kauffman was the director for ''Total Drama'''s first two seasons, and said skull has also appeared in non-Fresh TV cartoons he's worked on, like ''WesternAnimation/{{Sidekick}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{Looped}}''. |
| 352 | * In ''WesternAnimation/InspectorGadget'', there are several references to ''WesternAnimation/HeathcliffAndTheCatillacCats''; to name just a few examples, Penny is shown to have a Riff-Raff stuffed animal in "The Incredible Shrinking Gadget", and a person attending a costume party in "Ghost Catchers" is dressed up as Heathcliff. Both shows were produced by Creator/DiCEntertainment. |
| 353 | * Similarly in one Catillac Cats segment of WesternAnimation/HeathcliffAndTheCatillacCats Riff Raff turns on the tv and Inspector Gadget is on. |
| 354 | * In the ''WesternAnimation/JellyJamm'' episode "Jammbo TV", Goomo becomes hopelessly addicted to watching the television in the King and Queen's castle. Said television displays footage of ''WesternAnimation/{{Bugsted}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/PirataAndCapitano'', which are produced by Vodka Capital who also worked on ''Jelly Jamm''. |
| 355 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheJetsons'': |
| 356 | ** In the episode "Miss Solar System," George Jetson compliments the disguise of the character Mr. Spacely by telling him that "as WesternAnimation/YogiBear would say, [he's] smarter than the average bear!", referencing another character created by Creator/HannaBarbera. |
| 357 | ** In the episode "Elroy's Mob," Elroy's classmate Kenny Countdown uses a TV wristwatch to watch "the billionth rerun of ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones''." On his TV, we then see a clip of Fred diving into water and colliding with Barney. Even though there's a similar scene in ''The Flintstones'' episode "The Swimming Pool," the clip seen here was exclusively made for this reference. |
| 358 | * An episode of ''WesternAnimation/LittlestPetShop2012'' has Blythe Baxter dressed as a cowgirl riding [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Applejack]] for Halloween. Doubles as an ActorAllusion, since Ashleigh Ball voiced both characters. |
| 359 | * A few of the ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' shorts reference ''Film/{{Casablanca}}'', such as (to name one example) Bugs Bunny humming "As Time Goes By" in the 1944 short ''Hare Force''. Both ''Looney Tunes'' and ''Casablanca'' were produced by Creator/WarnerBros. |
| 360 | * ''WesternAnimation/MarthaSpeaks'': In "Martha's Chair", Mrs. Demson sees a chair resembling Martha's favorite chair on ''Series/AntiquesRoadshow'', which airs on Creator/{{PBS}} just like ''Martha Speaks''. |
| 361 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheMask'': One episode features spoofs of ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' called The Goofalotatots. Creator/WangFilmProductions Co., Ltd animated both ''Animaniacs'' and ''The Mask''.[[labelnote:*]]This is a subversion however, as Wang departed the show by the time the episode dropped. It still counts as Creator/PhilippineAnimationStudioInc, one of the replacement studios for Seasons 2 and 3, also worked on ''Animaniacs''.[[/labelnote]] |
| 362 | * ''WesternAnimation/MuppetBabies1984'': |
| 363 | ** In "The Daily Muppet", Oscar the Grouch, from fellow Jim Henson series ''Series/SesameStreet'', makes a cameo during the episode's song, "The Daily Muppet". |
| 364 | ** In "Nice To Have Gnome You", Baby Piggy, Baby Gonzo and Baby Animal try to cross the Bog of Eternal Stench from fellow Jim Henson production ''Film/{{Labyrinth}}''. |
| 365 | * In ''WesternAnimation/TheNewScoobyDooMovies'' episode "The Caped Crusader Caper," parade balloons of Fred Flintstone and Yogi Bear are seen. |
| 366 | * ''WesternAnimation/OggyAndTheCockroaches'': In the episode "Night Watchmen", Oggy and the cockroaches fell into acid and were turned into slime. They then enter a washing machine, which turns them into clothing, animals, and the aliens from ''WesternAnimation/SpaceGoofs'', both of which are produced by Creator/{{Xilam}}. |
| 367 | * ''WesternAnimation/ThePerilsOfPenelopePitstop'': From the debut episode "Jungle Jeopardy": |
| 368 | -->'''Penelope:''' My arch-enemy, the Hooded Claw!\ |
| 369 | '''Claw''': Who did you expect? [[WesternAnimation/DastardlyAndMuttleyInTheirFlyingMachines Dick Dastardly?]] |
| 370 | ** Similarly within the same studio, ''WesternAnimation/JosieAndThePussycats'' pulls this in its debut episode "A Greenthumb Is No Goldfinger": |
| 371 | -->'''Josie:''' Alexandra, it's you!\ |
| 372 | '''Alexandra:''' Of course it's me! Who were you expecting? Franchise/ScoobyDoo? |
| 373 | * ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'': In "Mindy's Weather Report", Sunspot flips through the channels on Face 9000. One of the programs he flips to is ''WesternAnimation/DinosaurTrain'', another PBS Kids show created by Craig Bartlett, complete with a second of the ''Dinosaur Train'' theme song playing. |
| 374 | * On ''WesternAnimation/TheRobonicStooges'', Woofer and Wimper from ''WesternAnimation/ClueClub'' are seen on wallpaper while ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'' is spotted in a coloring book. |
| 375 | * ''WesternAnimation/SantaClausIsCominToTown'': WesternAnimation/RudolphTheRedNosedReindeer is briefly mentioned in the special, only to be described as [[HeroOfAnotherStory part of another story]]. In fact, he's from another story produced by Creator/RankinBass. |
| 376 | * In the ''WesternAnimation/SidTheScienceKid'' episode "Sid's Amazing Lungs", Gerald pretends to be a baby and says "I'm the baby, gotta love me!" This is one of the catchphrases of Baby Sinclair from ''Series/{{Dinosaurs}}'', another Creator/JimHenson series. |
| 377 | * ''WesternAnimation/SpiralZone'': In one episode, Tank gives a hospitalized girl a ''[[WesternAnimation/PoundPuppies1980s Pound Puppies]]'' doll. Tonka Toys had the license to both franchises at the time. |
| 378 | * The Canadian animation company Creator/{{Nelvana}} provides a couple examples. |
| 379 | ** ''WesternAnimation/{{Spliced}}'': In "Same Difference", one clip in Smarty-Smarts and Joe's montage shows the two of them watching ''WesternAnimation/{{Grossology}}'', which ''Spliced'' creators Simon Racioppa and Richard Elliott worked on as series developers. |
| 380 | ** ''WesternAnimation/{{Sidekick}}'': In "Master XOX Ray Vision", after Eric puts on a pair of superpowered contact lenses, it intially causes him to see his friends Kitty, Trevor, and Vana as ''WesternAnimation/ScaredySquirrel'' characters (Scaredy, Dave and Sally, respectively). |
| 381 | ** In a few episodes of ''WesternAnimation/TheDayMyButtWentPsycho'', the characters can be seen watching clips from ''WesternAnimation/{{Spliced}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/ScaredySquirrel'' on their TV. |
| 382 | * A ''WesternAnimation/WatchMyChops'' episode "Who Said That?" featured cameos of Nelson the Elephant from ''WesternAnimation/SixtyFourZooLane'' and the title character from ''WesternAnimation/PabloTheLittleRedFox''. These shows are produced by Millimages. |
| 383 | * In the first episode of ''WesternAnimation/{{Trollhunters}}'', Jim's tablet has an image of Toothless from ''Franchise/HowToTrainYourDragon'' on it. Both are owned by Creator/DreamWorksAnimation. |
| 384 | * In the ''WesternAnimation/NatureCat'' episode "Wild Batts", a crossover with ''WesternAnimation/WildKratts'', Nature Cat mentions that the other neighborhood bats besides Chris and Martin Batt are named [[WesternAnimation/DanielTigersNeighborhood Daniel Bat]], [[WesternAnimation/PegPlusCat Peg + Bat]], [[WesternAnimation/CuriousGeorge George the Curious Bat]], and [[WesternAnimation/TheCatInTheHatKnowsALotAboutThat the Bat in the Hat]], all references to other PBS Kids shows. |
| 385 | * In ''WesternAnimation/GreenEggsAndHam2019'', the show features several references to fellow Creator/DrSeuss book ''Literature/TheCatInTheHat'', with the most notable being the cat's hat appearing in the opening credits. |
| 386 | * The ''WesternAnimation/XavierRiddleAndTheSecretMuseum'' episode "I Am Fred Rogers" focuses on fellow PBS Kids show ''Series/MisterRogersNeighborhood''. |
| 387 | * The ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales'' episode "The Wonderful World Of Auto-tainment!" has a picture of Zidgel from fellow Big Idea production ''WesternAnimation/ThreeTwoOnePenguins'' appear during the song "There's A Hole In The Bottom Of The Sea".

''ComicBook/{{Marsupilami}}'' makes a brief appearance in the episode [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3VtabRjuqk "The Smurfnapper"]] when a narrator is introducing the viewer to The Smurfs and the use of the word [[{{Smurfing}} "Smurf"]]. At the time, The Smurfs and Marsupilami (created by Creator/AndreFranquin) were both serialized on Magazine/{{Spirou}} before both works gained official publication. |
