Live-Action Television

  • Full House:
    • In several Season 4 episodes, Michelle is shown to own plushes of Babs and Buster Bunny.
    • In "Joey's Funny Valentine", D.J. tries to convince Michelle to get a big-screen TV from Big Sid's department store by saying "You could watch Tiny Toons and everything wouldn't look so tiny."
  • Parker Lewis Can't Lose: In "Fat Boy and Little Man", Jerry's care package includes Tiny Toons medicated heat rub.
  • Seinfeld: The show is mentioned in "The Contest", though it's just supposed to represent a random show aimed at kids (the episode Jerry is watching includes an apparently unironic performance of the song "The Wheels on The Bus Go Round and Round", which never would've happened on a real TTA episode). Apparently it was originally scripted as Flipper, but they couldn't get the rights to the theme song. It's also notable because Jerry is supposedly watching it on Nickelodeon, which TTA wasn't actually on at the time, but it would become a staple on the network a few years later.
