  • "The Deep End:" In a parody of MTV's the Real World, Gleek appears in the "Real World: Metropolis" segment, where Batman finds him electrocuting Robin through his nipples.
  • "Kiddie Pool:" In "The Incredible Adventures of the Olsen Twins," Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen are called on by "the Chief" to save the city from a dragon, to which they then spoof the Wonder Twins by crying, "Olsen twin powers activate!" Ashley turns into an eagle and Mary Kate into a bucket of water, respectively. Gleek also pops up in time to grab the Mary Kate bucket and to be picked up by Ashley. When the trio makes it to the dragon, Gleek hits the dragon with the Mary Kate bucket. The Dragon shoots fire back at them, so they land, and Gleek trips the dragon with a banana peel, but it backfires when the dragon slips right on top of Gleek and kills him.
