In a way, couldn't one kind of count the episode in which Lucky, Cadpig, and Rolly enter Roger's game as a slight reference to....say...TRON? (They enter via a computer, which is practically what the MCP is, (even though he's merely a program)).

this might be a homage to Greek mythology. In Virtual Lucky, we see Lucky, Rolly, and Cadpig merged together to form a three headed dog. A bit of a reference to Cerberus the watchdog of hell

Hmm, it is possible since Cruella had taken the form of the Medusa earlier, didn't she? And there is also that nod to that M.C. Escher painting in both 'Virtual Lucky' and "Good Neighbour Cruella", isn't there?
I am pondering, does the Worm that Cruella rides in "Virtual Lucky" count as a Dune Reference?

Again, Whilst this may not be a Homage in; "101 Dalmatians The Series", it's still a homage made in the Franchise. In the Gameboy Version of; "102 Dalmatians: Puppies To The Rescue", amongst some of the Enemies that you face against in Cruella's Tou Factories, one looks like a Robot Dog with the words; "K.9" printed on the side. This Enemy is almost an exact lookalike of K.9 from Doctor Who Fame! See the similarities?

I just remembered the homage I thought of! Bab, you might want to consider this for your next video:
In "Good Neighbor Cruella", when the good Cruella keeps offering all those drinks for Roger and Anita before they go to bed. This could be a reference to Young Frankenstein. You know what scene I'm talking about?

Ah, Yeah! I think I heard of that one.
I believe I can be able to add that! ;3
Got a video of the moment that scene is based on? =3

I don't know if this one has been pointed out yet. In "The Nose Knows", at the end when Rolly sniffs out the French fry on the picnic table, the little container it's in is red and has a little yellow "M" on it. I think we can all guess what's being referenced there.

I do notice some number of Homages too! ;3
In the episode; "BarnBoozled", Cadpig states that she's; "Always depended upon the Kibble of Strangers." This is most likely a reference to; "Street Car Named Desire".
Also, I am not sure if this is an intended reference, however in; "Invasion Of The Puppy Snatchers", Lucky mentions that the Sci-Fi Films they watch is on a Television Block called; "Mystery Creepazoid Theatre". Think that can be a Reference to MST3K, Pups? o.o

Say, here's a thought.
The episode that is called; "Rolly's Egg-Cellent Adventure", you think that can be a nod to; "Bill And Ted's Excellent Adventure", Pups?
I also got a question, is the Giant Worm that Cruella rides in; "Virtual Lucky" a nod to Dune, or is it a nod to Tremors? What you Pups think? o.o

Hey Pups!
I do notice that on some occassions; Cadpig is shown to use her larger ears to allow her some flight.
You think this is a nod to Dumbo, Pups? ;3

In terms of that Giant worm thing, Bab, maybe it's a nod to "Beetlejuice" Since near the end, one of the main characters, (not the title character who is the antagonist but a funny one at that), rides something that would be considered worm-like, (but very odd).

I believe it was a sandworm

Yeah. Sandworm.

Hm, Cruella does somewhat have that appearance, doesn't she?
Although, I have a suspicion. In; "You Slipped A Disk", we see Scorch checking about those Passages, before finding the Dalmatians near the Vault Door.
You think that can be a nod to the entering the Theatre in MST3K?
What you think, Pups? O.O

Highly unlikely, bab. That joke has been used so many times in pop culture. I think it originated either on the TV series, Get Smart, or one of Alfred Hitchcock's films; more likely the former.
