message: "Mary Richards throws her hat in the air at the end of The Mary Tyler Moore Show theme as she did in the opening credits of that show and the hat stays it the air and she is frozen and people see it happening."
That part dosn't make much sense, it would be nice to clean that up, because it makes no sense, please fix it up, I cannot myself.

:Actually I thought that was Barbara Streisand again, since they did a cutaway of her earlier in the episode. Maybe Streisand as Mary? Wl219 09:23, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Jarex (on whether Choomba Woomba should be merged or not.) I believe that it should remian it's own article. My account is new, but I have experience reading Wikipedia. —This unsigned comment was added by Jarex (talk • contribs) .
Merge. A one-shot joke from one episode doesn't need another page.

message: On what grounds can someone say this episode is a ripoff, or even really, pardody of Fry and the Slurm Factory? 
Aside from both having parodied Charlie and the Chocolate Factory I don't see any similarities that warrant the description.

replies: text: Actually, it goes a bit further. The way in which Peter finds the winning scroll is identical to the way Fry finds the winning bottle cap. (They both accidently drink the item and start choking on it. The Kinslayer 11:02, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Futurama Ripoff?

message: Is the cutaway seen with the lonely brain cell who breaks his glasses a cultural reference? I'm strongly inclnied to believe this is a direct parody of a twilight zone episode, but I can't remember which.

thread_title:  It's not Fair! There was time now! 

message: All of the songs that Peter plays are TV theme songs.  Though the movie was more popular, "9 to 5" was, in fact, made into a TV show.
I added a note about the TV themes that Peter plays. I cannot identify all of the pieces that he plays, though, but I'm positive that they're all from TV. Can anyone list the others off? I noted Dallas, the X-files, & Incredible Hulk. (I don't own the DVDs, but I might guess that this info could be found on a commentary?)RPM 03:00, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I'd like to know why the "sheet music goof" is a goof. In an earlier shot, before Lois leaves the room (the shot is more-or-less Stewie's view from the lounge room to the piano room) shows that there is already some sheet music on the piano, which the kid is playing. Makes sense. As Lois leaves the room, she says that the kid is "good enough to tackle a Beethoven's Sonata. Let me grab the sheet music." When she returns, she is indeed holding sheet music, and the original sheet music is still there on the piano. I don't see the problem with that. No sheet music vanished, and none mysteriously appeared without explanation. 59.167.142.74 18:59, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

message: When peter starts the competition, Lois is shown having to place Peter on the stool, then nudge him slightly so that he finds the correct pitch. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Lois pushes Peter to the left (so the pitch should go down), yet the pitch goes up? Lucothefish (talk) 13:22, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it's correct; the key is lowered by a whole step (as opposed to a half-step) after the move.67.171.38.246 (talk) 03:29, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
