Note, the bot needs improvement if we're going to use this alphabetical section since it's sorting the sub-list on one of the pages alphabetically - but it probably doesn't make sense to sort the trivia anyway.

Krusty Gets Busted

edit
  • Black Sox Scandal – The famous line, "Say it ain't so, Joe!" is mimicked when Bart utters, "Say it ain't so, Krusty!"
  • The Flintstones – Lisa's line, "If cartoons were meant for adults, they'd put them on in prime time," is a stab at The Simpsons' predecessors-in-kind.
  • The Day the Music Died – The Channel 5 pre-trial report, "The Day the Laughter Died," is a play on the common phrase, referring to the plane crash that killed rock stars Ritchie Valens, Buddy Holly and The Big Bopper.
  • Hamlet – Bart's observation, "Comedy, thy name is Krusty!" is a play on the Hamlet line, "Frailty, thy name is woman!"
  • Time and Newsweek - Krusty is shown on the cover of Timely and Newsweekly magazines.
  • Romania - Kent Brockman says, "children of all ages, from eight to eighty, hang on each new development like so many Romanian trapeze artists."
  • Krusty the Clown – several references:
  • Book Burning - The townspeople participate in a public burning of Krusty memorabilia.
  • "Burning Love" – The title of Elvis Presley's 1972 hit is used as the title of the first Itchy & Scratchy short (as well as another reference to The King).
  • Mission: Impossible – The distinctive theme to the 1960s crime drama plays as Bart and Lisa arrive at the Kwik-E-Mart to begin their investigation of the armed robbery.
  • The New York Review of Books – Sideshow Bob's version is The Springfield Review of Books, which contains "amusing caricatures of Gore Vidal and Susan Sontag".
  • The Man In the Iron Mask - Sideshow Bob reads the end of the chapter "An Homeric Song", and announces, "Next week, chapter 35 of The Man in the Iron Mask: 'The Death of a Titan.'"
  • Cole Porter - Bob sings "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye" to end his show.
  • Stoicism - Just before Bart announces he has solved the mystery, Bob says, "In ancient Greece, there was a school of thought called stoicism".
  • Scooby Doo – Sideshow Bob's line, "And I would've gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for these meddling kids," is akin to what the villain says when caught at the end of every "Scooby Doo" episode.
  • Tom and Jerry – Because this is their first full-fledged appearance, Itchy & Scratchy are a violent parody of the famous MGM cat and mouse duo. Scratchy fills Tom's shoes as the hapless cat, who is forever tormented by Itchy the mouse, an ultra-sadistic version of Jerry.
  • Woodsy Owl – Krusty's poster, "Give a hoot, read a book!" is a spoof of Woodsy Owl's advertising campaign, "Give a hoot, don't pollute!"
  • Garfield and Friends the plot of this episode is similar to an episode called "Binky Goes Bad" in which Binky the clown is framed for robbery.
  • Beatles - Beatles records and merchandise were burned after John Lennon was quoted saying the Beatles were 'bigger than Jesus'.
