NOTES (2)
ADD NOTES
- Contrary to formula, Joel and the 'Bots watch the movie before the short. In segment four, just as Servo is ready to call it a day, the Mads tell them they have to watch another chapter of "The Phantom Creeps."
  EDIT SHARE
- Second and last episode to feature Tom Servo's "haircut".

ALLUSIONS (1)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- Blue Velvet: When TV's Frank ingests some gas from a mask and then whimpers "Mommy, don't look at me" he is quoting another Frank; Frank Booth was a gas-huffing sociopath in David Lynch's 1986 film Blue Velvet.
