5 | -->'''Blossom''': His legs are too long to be a pony, he's a colt. |
6 | -->'''Buttercup''': Huh, then what's a filly? |
7 | -->'''Blossom''': I dunno, a.. pony with attitude? |
8 | * To game refs in the climax of "Bye Bye Bellum" when the Mayor comes to rescue the girls, mostly toward ''Franchise/StreetFighter'', ''VideoGame/DonkeyKong'' and ''Franchise/MortalKombat''.

15 | * TheMovie ''Space Tow Trucks vs Judge Tread'' parodies both ''Franchise/StarWars'' and ''ComicBook/JudgeDredd''. |

22 | * One episode features a homage sequence to ''Franchise/{{Tintin}}''. |
23 | * "Imagine That" has a character imitating WesternAnimation/{{Goofy}}'s laugh. The episode itself is also similar to ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'''s season 2 premiere, with Him playing a Discord-like trickster who turns Bubbles monochrome and joyless. |

31 | ** The episode is YetAnotherChristmasCarol. |
