in the native american casino episode -

"coming up next - what you don't know about hair care products could be costing you a bundle"

is a reference to the star wars tv special - "fighting the frizzies, at 11" which was also done in mr hankey's christmas classics

But seriously, who gives a shit what some stupid "reference" is to another stupid show, from the increasingly mediocre and unfunny cartoon?

I care, I think the constant references to American popular culture and entertainment are what make the show so great. I'm not sure how they even translate the show for other countries, the references would just go over the heads of foreign audiences. I remember a show on Cartoon Network last year called Super Milk Chan that seemed so bizarre, but someone said that the reason it didn't make sense is that it was constantly referring to Japanese popular culture, so even though it was translated into English it wasn't funny.
