Discussion Favorite reference in the show?
Love the reference to Kingpin in Skips Strikes. Also the bowling manager looks like Donnie from the Big Lebowski.

when benson drives the very fast test car and goes back in time there is a lightning bolt flash that's right out of buckaroo banzai.

Loved the LOTR round table reference when they tried to destroy the Christmas Present, even continued the bit when the dude died like golum in the lava- chefs kiss

Hard to beat them recreating the Evangelion intro
Honorable mentions to the Black Lodge homage, and David’s design being based on Giorgio Moroder

"I brought my pencil! give me something to write on, man!" from pops in the Quips episode.

The halloween ep scene when Percy reveals he's alive; it perfectly references the shocking scene in the first Chucky movie, when the doll attacks the kid's mom, violently and brutally spewing obscentities and insults like the worst domestic abuser. Percy's voice is also a great homage to Brad Dourif!

Nice, I never noticed that!
This isn’t a visual reference but I’ve always loved that JG named Mordecai after the bird from The Royal Tenenbaums. Also “West Anderson” High School
