I don't think the title I chose fit my bill of "short, descriptive, and to the point". What are your thoughts? Also, should this encompass inspired work from commentaries, or is that too much?—Soiled Bargains ^(talk|ctrb) 03:34, 1 February 2011 (UTC), edited 04:07, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

I think it should actually be merged with a over-encompassing "Flashforward" article that lists toons, etc. that return (reference, or as a whole) at a later date, seeing as this article itself doesn't seem like it should be alone. ColdReactive 05:01, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

I, for one, think it should be Interview Inspired Work. — 76.79.214.130 (Talk | contribs) 20:23, 5 June 2019 (UTC) (left unsigned)

I agree with ColdReactive, but only if enough examples can be found. Otherwise, I agree with Anonny. .Gfdgsgxgzgdrc. 01:12, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

The current title makes me think of something inspired by someone’s physical appearance. -174.62.238.201 12:09, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

The title is obviously kind of vague, but I just realized another problem I have with it: it's not even really accurate. Specifically the word "inspired". The change in Bubs's arms likely wasn't inspired by the Georgia Tech talk, it was inspired by a difficulty animating him, which they just happened to mention there. Homestar's half-open mouth almost certainly wasn't inspired by Matt saying he wouldn't get one. The title should be something less speculative of where the Chaps get their ideas; something like "Content That Addresses Things The Brothers Chaps Have Previously Said", but shorter. (I chose to phrase it in a way that also avoids the word "Appearances" so it can include commentaries, as suggested above 14 years ago. Stuff like the name "Lappy 486" and the events of do over being thought of during commentaries.) .Gfdgsgxgzgdrc. 05:01, 14 August 2025 (UTC)
