References/Trivia


Cultural references

  • Blockoland is a parody of Legoland.
  • The ghost of César Chávez visits Homer during his hunger strike, but takes the appearance of Cesar Romero, because Homer doesn't know what Chavez looks like.
  • The scene where Bart sees Homer lying on top of the red dog house is a direct reference to Charlie Brown and Snoopy (both from Peanuts). Bart even utters Charlie Brown's signature line "Good Grief".
  • The title is a play on the game, Hungry Hungry Hippos. Coincidentally, one of the hippos in the game is named Homer.
  • When Kent Brockman says that Mr. Duff is insisting that Homer is a liar, they show footage of Homer with his pants on fire. This is a nod to the classic chant, Liar, Liar, Pants On Fire.
  • When Marge gets streaks in her hair, it resembles the Bride of Frankenstein's hair; tall white with two black streaks.
