Robot Chicken Season 2 Episode 19

Roger Ebert: "Rudy Tooty, not fresh, not fruity."

In this line of dialogue, Ebert is referring to a signature breakfast from the IHOP, International House of Pancakes, menu, the Rooty Tooty Fresh and Fruity.

Rudy 2
Rudy 2 is a crossover parody between the Rocky movie series and the 1993 film Rudy.

Fortune, Rudy's trainer, is the same character that supported Rudy's efforts in the original film.

Happy Madison
Happy Madison, the name of the Adam Sandler 'movie,' is also the name of the film production company founded by Adam Sandler.

While Adam Sandler protrays the fourth American president, James Madison, his immature actions are similar to Sandler's portrayal of Billy Madison from the 1995 film Billy Madison. The name 'Happy' comes from Adam Sandler's second blockbuster film, Happy Gilmore.

Rob Schneider, a fellow performer of Sandler's, portrays both of Madison's vice presidents, George Clinton and Eldridge Gerry, who both actually died while in office.

Transporter 3
The preview for the supposed prequel to the Transporter series is a crossover parody between the action of the Transporter movies and the plot of Driving Miss Daisy.

Gary Coleman
Gary Coleman, who is most infamously known for his role as Arnold in Diff'rent Strokes, is shown in a sketch dealing with the problems of being a former child actor.

His promotion of "Fast Cash Now!" parodies his real-life 2006 promotion for CashCall, a cash-advance loan company.

Emmanuel Lewis, who is often confused for Gary Coleman, is the other former child actor with all of the ladies in his car.

Conrad Brain is the man Gary sees in the nursing home. He played Arnold's(Gary's) adopted father in Diff'rent Strokes.

The fact that Gary is sent back to Earth to "earn his halo" parodies the short-lived animated series, The Gary Coleman Show. However, in the series, he is sent back to earn his "wings," not his halo.

Stretch Armstrong
Stretch Armstrong was a toy introduced in 1978 through Kenner Products. It was re-issued in the 1990's through Cap Toys.

The sketch makes fun of the flaw in Stretch Armstrong's design: the corn syrup in his body hardens over time, making the toy less stretchable.

The character that replaces Stretch "one year later" is Plastic Man, a DC Comics character with the ability to stretch.

"I pity the foo'!"
The sketch featuring Mr. T and the Foo Fighters was a crossover parody. Mr. T applies his most infamous line to the band's name.

Part of the music used in the sketch is parodied from the theme of the TV series A-Team, a show that had Mr. T as a regular cast member. The music was also used earlier in the Robot Chicken epsiode "Nightmare Generator," which featured an A-Team sketch.
