 * The show about a dog going around in a van with his friends solving mysteries the internet mentions at the end is clearly intended to be the Hanna-Barbera cartoon Scooby-Doo.
 * Although he later mentions that show is on another channel, which it could possibly mention Cartoon Network's sister channel Boomerang, where most of the Hanna-Barbera cartoons air.
