Bad Heir Day/References

Episode	Trivia	Appearances	Gallery	Transcript

Trivia

• Crocker has apparently always wanted to say the words, "Table for Two".
• Apparently, in this episode, Cosmo thought Wanda said "Flamingo Dancing" instead of "Flamenco Dancing".
• Crocker and Poof meet again in School of Crock when Poof muttered his first words, "I...want...my...rattle!"
• This episode bears similarities to Sooper Poof, in which Timmy's parents adopt Poof after believing him to be a super baby.
• Cosmo and Wanda don't appear until the end making them minor characters in this episode.
• Crocker not knowing what a football is reflects on how the term itself has become complicated in the field of sports. For this case, he is playing an American version of it (in which he referred to the ball instead as an "oblong projectile" and "oblong ball").
• When Cosmo and Wanda poof up in Timmy's room, (despite the colouring) Cosmo is wearing the same outfit he wore back in The Switch Glitch.

Allusions

Football gag reference.

• Bad Heir Day - The episode's title is a spoof of Bad Hair Day.

• Peanuts - When Mr. Crocker is walking sadly down the road, a girl takes the football away from a boy's feet, which is a reference to the Football gag. The children resemble Charlie Brown and Lucy Van Pelt.
  • In the same scene, there was a dog over a doghouse that resembles Snoopy.

• The Loch Ness Monster - The Loch Dimmsdale Monster is a spoof of Nessie, an elusive, mythical creature that's rumored to be hidden in Scotland's Loch Ness.

• Charlies's Roastbeef - At the end, Crocker and his robot son go to a restaurant called "Charlie's Steaks Pies" which is an obvious reference to the Colombian restaurant.

Goofs

• It is unknown how the Dynamite Museum could have been rebuilt so quickly.
• When Mr. Crocker says "Wow, babies float!", the captions say BABY'S in place of BABIES, as in "Wow, Baby is float!", or as in "Wow, the float of Baby!"
• Mr. Crocker's candle was blown out at the beginning, but he blew it out again when he wished for an heir.
• Rabies is a disease of the mammalian nervous system. Alligators are reptiles, and thus can't suffer the affliction.

Running Gags

• A stork pecking someone's head, and that someone saying "No, Storkie!".
• Timmy mistaking something round and purple for Poof while at the same time getting hurt.
• The Crock-Bot 9000 attacking Crocker and disobeying his orders.
