The "Duck Deception" segment is one of the first, if not the first, times Porky Pig is shown in drag.
Dodgers [angrily]: The next time I meet a dame, I'll walk right up to her say [dreamily, upon seeing the princess] I love with you every fiber of my being! Cadet: A-at least's he's consistent!
Duck Dodgers: Hey, what's all the cheering for? - Agent Yoshimi: You just volunteered for a suicide mission. Dodgers: Ohhhhhh!
Commander X2: After my encounter with a lovely space vixen, I'm feeling rather benevolent! [Sighs] And now it's passed. Destroy Duck Dodgers!
Dodgers [After struggling to remove the energy core and failing]: I'd like to get my hands on the jerk who built this thing! [Sees the Eject button next to the Energy Core] Huh! If it was a snake, it would've bit me!
DD: (about Mars's Power Core) Now, the big gorilla said that the power core is at the end of this hallway. Wow! It sure is shiny ... and surrounded by a mound of radioactive waste. This calls for some special effects!
Dodgers: Don't forget that I'm a valuable space captain...of the Galactice Protectorate! I'm sure they'll end a rescue ship for us...eventually. [Sign card says 'Two Years Later']
X-2: There's nothing I enjoy more than frolicking in a room filled with empty plastic balls.
Cadet: (Dressed as a woman) I'm a hot potater.
"Duck Deception" is "Episode 24.04"; "The Spy Who Didn't Love Me" is "Episode 12.20".
Dodgers: I've always been fond of the name 'Montague' Montague is the last name of one of the rival families in the famous Shakesperean tragedy, Romeo and Juliet.
n/a: Quadricorder In Star Trek, there is a scanning device called a tricorder.
Duck Dodgers is a parody of the hit TV show Buck Rogers of the 25th Century.
Title: The Spy Who Didn't Love Me
The title is a play on the title to the 1977 James Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me.
n/a: Star Trek
"Duck Deception" has some similarities to the Star Trek episode "The Enterprise Incident": Cadet was disguised as a Martian in order to steal an energy core; Capt. Kirk was disguised as a Romulan in order to steal a cloaking device. Another Star Trek reference: Dodgers' shuttle looks very much like a shuttle from the series.
n/a: Cap'n Crunch
Dodgers' uniform in the beginning of "The Spy Who Didn't Love Me" was very similar to that of Cap'n Crunch, the mascot for the breakfast cereal of the same name.
DD: Si Señor, I'm your l-l-little piggie.
Dodgers' hand puppet of Cadet is similar to the hand puppet that Señor Wences used in his numerous appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show. Señor Wences was a Spanish ventriloquist whose most famous creations are puppet-in-a-box Pedro ("S'OK?" "S'awright!"), and hand puppet Johnny, which he created by scrunching up his fist, drawing a mouth where thumb and index finger met, and draping a blond wig over the top.
