"Bart the Murderer"

Another horse is called "That's All Folks!", which is the catchphrase of Porky Pig and appears on-screen at the end of Looney Tunes cartoons.

"The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show"

June Bellamy, the voice of Itchy and Scratchy, claims she did the voice of the Road Runner, but the studio had her record only one "meep".

June Bellamy herself is a parody of Looney Tunes voice actress June Foray.

The monitor that the Army colonel is watching this on then says "That's All Folks!"
