One of his Pokémon Abridged Series episodes, taken down due to a Terms of Use Violation, included a scene where Professor Oak, Officer Jenny, Nurse Joy, and Ash's Mom, "nodded in agreement" to Skye's voiceover comments. He then repeated the scene except all of them were wearing Dangeresque glasses, and Oak was wearing a Homestar Runner Shirt.

  • masterofhomestar, referred to as Electricstar, made a bunch of random fan made Homestar Runner videos. His most noticeable video is Strong Bad roll, which uses various clips that have Strong Bad from various toons, shorts, SBEmails, and SBCG4AP, and "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley, known as the music used for "Rickrolling". Here, he used the Strong Bad clips and mashed them up to make sound like he's singing to the song.
  • LuigiMario2009's "The Super Luigi Show" has many Homestar Runner refrences. In the episode "Back To School", Patamon watches being mean, and replies to Luigi saying: "I'm watching Strong Bad Email!".

Luigi: "All the good characters are gone!"

Patamon: What about Shadow?

Luigi: "all the GOOD characters!"

Once Shadow has been eaten, Luigi says: "Now all the good AND the bad characters are gone!"
