** A put-upon corporate mascot with a moon for a head who is routinely mocked and disrespected by the people around him? Are we talking about Craterface or [[VideoGame/TheOuterWorlds Martin Callahan]]?

* GeniusBonus: A lot of interesting cross-referencing with regards to Luna Park.
** The park in the episode is a place people can visit during a trip to the moon. The park being referenced, that being the original Luna Park in Coney Island, was born out of a successful ride at the 1901 World's Fair, which was then moved to Steeplechase Park and later what would become Luna Park, called "A Trip To The Moon."

* HilariousInHindsight: Bender saying "I guess a robot would have to be crazy to wanna be a folk singer." after singing a folk song due to having a magnet in his head becomes even more hilarious upon watching [[Recap/FuturamaS3E13BendinInTheWind later]] [[Recap/FuturamaS7E17FortyPercentLeadbelly episodes]] where Bender ''does'' become a folk singer.
