Kim: Scaring me!


Kim: I am so not into this sci-fi stuff.

(Ron opens the magazine)

Ron: That 1670’s show.

Shego: No, no why are you hugging me?

Woman: Because you broke up with Billy.

Shego: Who's Billy?

Girl: That's the spirit! pretend you forgotten all about him. Oh, unless you really forgotten him already. That would be like a reason to see your doctor.

(both chuckle)

Shego: Ok that's gotta stop.

(open door) (applause)

Man: Could this day get any weirder?

Shego: Finally someone else notices.

Girl: Yeah, It is kinda moopy. (laughter)

Woman: Moopy? Did you just make that up?

Girl: No, I made it up when I was seven, seven was a moopy year.

Allusions[]

  • The entire episode's premise is similar to the 1992 film Stay Tuned where the film's main characters Roy and Helen Knable are trapped in their television set after ordering a television satellite from a demonic salesmen. Ron's addiction to TV is also similar to Roy's.
  • Shego and Kim appear in a hospital-based comedy which may be an allusion to Scrubs.
  • 'Evil Eye for the Bad Guy is an allusion and parody of the Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, complete with the theme song.
  • Pals is an allusion to Friends.
  • The Adventures of Scamper and Bitey is an allusion to Tom and Jerry.
  • The Fearless Ferret opening title which Ron and Drakken find themselves stuck in is an allusion to the opening title sequence of the 1960s live-action Batman series.
  • Space Passage is an allusion to Star Trek.
  • The scene with Kim in space makes several allusions to Star Trek.
    • She was wearing a red shirt, in which the red-shirted characters in both series would usually die in the episode
    • The Space Commander calls Kim "ensign", in which most Star Trek red-shirts were ensigns.
  • Drakken was trapped on Puppet Pals, which may be an allusion to the BBC / PBS Kids show Teletubbies.
  • There was a game show allusion to Hollywood Squares, which is a tic-tac-toe question game show.
  • A host says: "You’ve been voted out of the igloo". This scene was an allusion to the hit reality program Survivor, in which people are voted out of the location they are at.

Trivia[]

Continuity[]

  • The Pan-Dimensional Vortex Inducer was stolen before, a year earlier in Kim and Ron's sophomore year[2].
  • The Fearless Ferret makes an appearance in this episode in the form of the old TV show[3].

Errors[]

  • Drakken's hair falls out but then his hair grows back in 2 seconds.
  • Ron lost his pants before he entered the portal. But when he came out from the banana cabin, his pants are on.
  • Kim says the events of Ron the Man happened "last year", but that episode was in the first season.
    • The series begins with Kim and Ron in their sophomore year, thus one can conclude that both the first and second seasons occur in sophomore year.
  • The Pan Dimensional Vortex Inducer is red and yellow, but in Ron the Man, it was grey.
    • Not necessarily an error. Projects get worked on over time, so it could have been upgraded color schemes each time.
  • In the Hospital scene, Kim's midriff goes from skin-colored, to the same color as her hospital scrubs, and back to skin colored.
  • The "Scamper & Bitey" words was where "Scamper" was blue and "Bitey" was orange when Ron was watching the show on his TV, but in the cable vortex "Scamper" was orange and "Bitey" was blue.
  • While Kim was wearing her red Space Passage Star Trek parody shirt, the stripes on her sleeves were yellow but when Kim briefly answers "Yes" in answer to Commander Caine's question of "Lost Ensign?" the stripes were black.
