*I saw an episode of Foster's that I don't know what it was called (Comcast calls it The Big Leblooski, but it's not always right), about bowling, and learning how to bowl, and half the plot "was that Bloo was trying to win a paddleball at a crane machine. But one of the things in the crane looked suspiciously like a Strong Bad head... but not exactly like it. I don't have a screenshot, and because it wasn't totally like SB, it may have been a coincedence, so I didn't put it on. If anyone else has seen this episode, please tell me if you noticed this resemblance (or the object in question). --[[User:Bonkava!|Bonkava!]] 04:44, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

In the episode where they pool their arcade tickets to get the pink elephant, Wilt offers up the possible name of "Harry Elephanté" which is what Strong Bad calls Strong Sad toward the end of "origins"

Also, in the episode "Challenge of the Superfriends", Mac is trying to think of a cool catchphrase. Mac says one that was *horrible* and Imaginary Man tells him to "Keep try", and anyone who has played [[Stinkoman 20X6]] knowns where that came from.

Isn't it a stretch to mention when TV shows interview people who coincidently are wearing HR shirts? I mean, when someone just happens to be wearing a strong Bad shirt or has a HR sticker on their windshield in the background of a TV show it's not really an intentional refernwece.

-
It might be worth mentioning that in the Dinner Theater episode that Chowder says he'll meet the 'actor-types' backstage. Mung Daal also says to the sudience "Please to enjoy". EDIT: Another reference I found is in the Lollistops episode where Gazpacho says to the Doozy "Yo mama wears Combat boots". I'm not sure if thats a common joke, but it sounds like Homestars taunt in Kick-a-Ball.

==X Play Trailers==

During the intro to trailers on XPlay, they have a green screen, much like in the intro to Hollywood trailers, that carries the phrase 'watch out, your head might asplode', and unmistakable HR refrence. I'm not a member so I'll let one of you add it, though.

On the Thursday Sept 25 2008 episode of Conan, Zachary Levi talks about group beatboxing on the set of "Chuck", and he says that "someone would lay down a ntss ntss ntss ntss and then someone else comes in with a..." and then he makes that weird noise from [[The System is Down (Song)]]. He then says "thats like from Homestar Runner" (making the reference obvious) and the audience cheers. The full episode is [http://www.nbc.com/Late_Night_with_Conan_O%27Brien/video/episodes/#vid=699866 here], its a couple seconds after 34:00, and there might be an ad first. {{User:The Teach!/Twig}} 13:46, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

In the TV show ''Wizards of Waverly Place'', the title song shows Alex invisibly pulling a red laptop with a star on it. Does anyone think it's worth mentioning? I'll get a screenshot... If no one replies in a week, it's going on the article. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 20:44, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

-
In the Wed, Mar 11 2009 episode, while talking about commercials, Jimmy pronounces it ad-ver-tis-mints. Think it's an HR reference? {{User:Coach z's cool/sig}} 22:39, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

== How suite it is to find another reference. ==
 
-
 
-
So I was watching The Suite Life of Zack and Cody and saw that London promised she would wake up at the "Crack of Noon", just as in [[cheatday]]. Is this too vauge to be a reference? What made me suspicious it that they already made a "Last Place! Ding!" pun in another episode, so it may be the writer is a HR fan. --[[User:Jellote|Jellote]] 23:09, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

WHHHAAAAAAAAAAAT A MINUTE I believe the people listing these characters are making crud up because I saw Grandpa Lemon from Annoying Orange was listed as one of the Imaginationland characters the episode aired 10/17/07 [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imaginationland_Episode_I]] and Annoying Orange Grandpa Lemon launched on youtube June 4 2010 see this for proof [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFZtOk42ets]]. There is pear,cabbage, and orange himself. [[User:Ar2nF]]

== Ace of Cakes ==
 
-
 
-
In reference to the Trogdor and Pom Pom cakes, these were not made on any episode of the series.  They were made before the bakery was offered a show by Food Network.  Charm City Cakes opened in 2000, and the show did not go into production until 2006. See [[wikipedia:Ace of Cakes|Here]] and [http://www.charmcitycakes.com/about here].

== ICarly ==
 
-
 
-
I don't think the ICarly reference should be in there at all. The context of the episode is that some guy who does not know the character named Gibby calls him Jibblie because he is mispronouncing the name. It has nothing to do with H*R. [[User:Stiny's Danish|Stiny's Danish]] 22:42, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
