Behind the scenes
- George dealt with Uniblab in the episode, "Uniblab." Both episodes also have Henry Orbit, where he helps George tamper with Uniblab to get even; this time he seems to have blown up (off-screen).
- Uniblab, however, returns in season two, still getting George to gamble at Spacely Space Sprockets, but in a smaller capacity and a lot more tamer.
