Notes

add »
This is the first episode not to cencor the word 'a$$hole' (edit)
Look Hard: When Shake is in the middle of the road, you can see Carl's car go behind him, along with hearing Carl yell "Jackass!" Despite this, we never see Carl in this episode. (edit)
A lot of names credited in this episode are fake. Since ATHF a non-SAG operation done in Atlanta, GA, sometimes SAG actors have to use an alias so they don't get caught. Due to this, credit cannot be given to any of the people involved, since the show's creators have refused to give out the real credits to any of the names. (edit)
Look Hard: When Shake is standing out in the middle of the street, you'll notice that he has a lot of objects from previous episodes on his person. Some things include Enchiladitos dust on his mouth from Super Bowl and Meatwad's BNC (aka Brushed Nickel Colander) from Super Spore with a few other items. (edit)
Look Hard: If you watch the TV while Shake is getting yelled at by Frylock to come here, you can see he's watching the Spacecataz openers as one long strip. (edit)

Quotes

Frylock: Shake, who are you talking to?
Shake: Are you serious? Hey, tell him who I'm talking to! (Hallunciates a face on the wall talking)
Face: He was talking to the basket ball. What the f***? (edit)
Meatwad: (Looking at Shake, standing in the middle of the road.) Hey I got two questions. One, what's he doing now, and two, should we set him on fire? (edit)
Master Shake: Ladies and Gentleman, let's hear it for Tulip Sniper!
Tulip Sniper: Thank you, thank you very much. Die! Die, all of you! (edit)
Narrator: Donna's heart was shattered.
Donna: No, Poncho! No!
Narrator: Fortunately for her, she turned into the Incredible Hulk. But not the Marvel Comic Hulk, a totally different Hulk that we made up.
Donna: Hulk mad!! (edit)
Poncho: Listen, we're gonna battle your dad, mang, ok? You gotta tell him to lay off, please, ok?
Donna: But I don't ever see him... mang. (edit)

Trivia

add »
When Shake yells at the filing cabnet to "Get in here." the subtitles say "Get out here." (edit)
Most concert tickets are very exspensive... If Frylock and Shake complained about paying 400 dollars to heat there house in Super Squatter, then how would they have the money for three 200-300 dollar tickets to a concert? (edit)
How did Frylock get the toliet seat home without getting infected himself? (edit)

Allusions

Meatwad: ...after you ate them bad ribs after going to the Gatlin Brothers concert....
Yes, that's right. The Aqua Teens are fans of The Gatlin Brothers. (edit)
Narrator: Thankfully, she turned into the the Incredible Hulk. But not the Marvel Comic Hulk, a totally different Hulk that we made up.
Well, they say this isn't a reference to The Incredible Hulk but we know better. (edit)

Abysmal
Hypno-Germ
"Painful to watch"
This one had the potential to be great, but horrible writing and an overabundance of uninteresting characters make this the single worst episode of ATHF.

"Alternate reality"
There have always been several ATHF episodes that make you say "What the HELL is this?" and Hypogerm does just that.

Great
Hypno-Germ
"Silly"
Shake sits on a toilet seat covered with hypno-germs and the germs control Shakes mind, so Frylock injects beans into Shake so they can fight against the hypno-germs, then it shows a play going on in shakes head. Then the beans win next Frylock gets them.
