Come _on_, people, juliewa and the Brains are asking _us_, their devoted
fans, for help with this references list, and (seemingly) no one is
listening. juliewa said my list was closest, and I copied it from
someone else's list, I don't remember whose, something like 18 months
ago. So if any of you long-time Misties out there have a better version
of this than I do, _let_ _juliewa_ _know_. I mean, jeez, doesn't
*anyone* out there have this??? fRiNgE? Sampo? Anyone?

Yes, DEAR, I'm just doing it, DEAR! (Fawlty Towers)

Technically this is from "Of Mice And Men"; the WB cartoon (with the
idiotic Yeti and Daffy Duck) is a play on the book/film.

|}Tonight, on Emergency 911... (Emergency 911)

SHouldn't this be "Rescue 911"?

Hm, I'll have to keep thinking of more. Good job, though!

Thanks for posting this, jess.


And how about these...

I know they used it in "Jungle Goddess" but what is the original source?

BECAUSE... (etc.)"

Thanks for your help.

"I will hug him and squeeze him and call him George." Some big goon character
squeezing Bugs - reference to _Of Mice and Men_.

Comes after "Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat."

Or urban legend.

>Atomic batteries to power! Turbines to speed! (Batman tv show)

Starting the batmobile.

>Behold the only thing greater than yourself! (?)

Roots. Kunta Kinte presents baby Kizzy to the sky after her birth.

>Be vewy vewy quiet. (Bugs Bunny)

Elmer Fudd!

>Hurts, don't it? (Roadhouse)

Old joke "Would you like a Hertz donut?" <punch on arm> "Hurts, don't it"

>I'm going to give you such a pinch! (Joe Besser)

Also referenced in Warner Bros. cartoons

>Kill de wabbit! (Bugs Bunny)

Again Elmer Fudd. Episode "What's Opera, Doc?" sung to Wagner's Valkyrie.

>Krakatoa, east of Java. (from the movie East of Java?)

B-52's song "Hot Lava"

>Oh, Mr. B....(?)
Old sitcom "Hazel" with Shirley Booth

>SLEEP! (?)
Hypnotism

>Tonight, on a very special Trapper John MD... (Trapper John MD)

Any TV show "tease", just pick a show genre to match the situation.

That any help?

commercials)

Possibly the '70s disco song, "He's A Bad Mamma Jamma". Band, anyone?
On the other hand, you left out "He is one baaad mother-- SHUT YOUR

Right series, wrong episode. It's "The Paradise Syndrome".

"spooks", Jess, "spooks"!

: I'm huge! (?)

Probably not a ref. Just a joke, because the camera's low angle is
sometimes used to be "artsy" and sometimes used to give the illusion of
huge size. However, wasn't there a line in "Amazing Colossal Man"
blending this with the Yul Brynner ref: "I'm huge now. Please don't
smoke."

: My mother was a saint! (Public Enemy #1)

Jess, and you call yourself a Republican! It's a direct quote from
Richard Nixon's resignation speech.

(grrr) yes, yes, I know that. I made the mistake of letting the original
ref. list's error go, and now I'm catching heat for it. grr. (I.e., yeah,
I should have picked up on that...)

good call.

that error is mine, folks, all mine.

>"spooks", Jess, "spooks"!

well...this raises a question. When MST misquotes something - and I'm
positive Joel and the bots said "ghosts" - do we put the misquote or the
original in the Reference file?


>: My mother was a saint! (Public Enemy #1)

>Jess, and you call yourself a Republican! It's a direct quote from
>Richard Nixon's resignation speech.

well, I don't call myself a Republican, because (as jamie and greg lean
forward, teeth bared) I'm not (mnyah! :P), but I'm pretty sure it's also
a quote from Public Enemy #1 (either that or White Heat, come to think of it)

Obviously my mind was elsewhere on this one....
