Everlasting influence

 * In the Boy Meets World episode "Sixteen Candles and Four-Hundred-Pound Men," when Cory has to be at Topanga's birthday party and help Francis at his wrestling match at the same, Shawn uses this episode as an example of how it is doable, despite Cory's objections of Flintstones being a cartoon. When Topanga later finds out what he was doing, she also refers to this episode.
