!!The ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' presentation has examples of:

-->'''Crow:''' Servos! Sheep Mode!
-->'''Servos:''' YES CREATOR. BAAA. BAAA.
-->'''Crow:''' Time to get melted back into 3D print cable!

* AliensInCardiff:
-->'''Tom Servo:''' I thought [[{{Kaiju}} giant monsters]] came from Japan, not Denmark!
-->'''Jonah:''' Well, Asia clearly has the most monster credibility, but there's a beautifully diverse array of global monsters all over the planet!

* CloningBlues: Crow creates a new batch of Servos using one of his arms as a base. The first few are nearly identical to the original, but CloneDegeneration sets in as Southern Belle Servo and Evil Servo appear.

** The EyeCatch segments throughout Season 11 play a variety of remixes based on classic [=MST3K] songs. ''Reptilicus'' specifically plays "Livin' in Deep 13" from ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S06E10TheViolentYears The Violent Years]]'', the "[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S02E07WildRebels Wild Rebels Cereal]]" jingle music, and an accordion version of [[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S09E10TheFinalSacrifice Tom Servo's "Canada Song"]].

** The EyeCatch segments play a jazz version of "Livin' in Deep 13" from ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S06E10TheViolentYears The Violent Years]]'', the "[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S02E07WildRebels Wild Rebels Cereal]]" jingle music, and an accordion version of [[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S09E10TheFinalSacrifice Tom Servo's "Canada Song"]].

** A meta example that shaped the entire season: Netflix's insistence that the episodes all drop together to be binged (rather than the preferred regularly-spaced episodes) is what led to creating ''"The Gauntlet"'' in the first place.

--->'''Servo:''' Nothing says "international" like a picture of the US Capitol Building.[[note]]Of course [[WeAllLiveInAmerica it would to people not from America, as with Reptilicus' Danish filmmakers]], but American International were just the distributors in this case, a notorious BMovie outfit based in LA.[[/note]]

** During "Every Country Has a Monster" Jonah knocks over several of the monster models and looks directly at the camera with an OhCrap expression. Fortunately this is ''exactly'' in the spirit of ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000''.

* TheCameo: Creator/WilWheaton and Erin Gray give us some beautifully stilted exposition on our new lead.

** When a factory appears in the background, Tom Servo hovers over it to recreate the cover of Music/PinkFloyd's ''Music/{{Animals}}''.

* It's two months later. The bots discuss the upgrades Jonah's given them. For his first invention exchange, Jonah invents a foldable bubble wand, the Bubble Fan. Kinga claims to have something better than an invention: true star power, in the form of a monster movie just packed with famous actors. It falls flat when Max points out that Danish comedian Dirch Passer is the only celebrity in ''Reptilicus''.[[note]]As this is the first episode, Kinga doesn't have any riffs to mine for invention ideas yet.[[/note]]
