{{TB|During the Christmas program at [[Springfield Elementary School]], [[Bart]]'s class sings "[[Jingle Bells (Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire)|Jingle Bells]]".

{{TB| Lisa bought a ''Super Lois'' comic book, while Bart dresses up as [[Bartman]], an obvious take on Batman.

{{TRs|[[Season 4|4]]|2}}
{{TB|068}}
{{TB|"[[Mr. Plow]]"}}
{{TB|{{Ch|Adam West}}, the actor of [[Batman]] in the 1960s ''{{W|Batman (TV series)|Batman}}'' TV series, is guest star. Homer introduces him to Bart and Lisa as "Batman", but they claim it's not him. This prompts West to start bickering how they probably only know [[Michael Keaton]] and [[Michelle Pfeiffer]] (who played Batman and [[Catwoman]] in Tim Burton's film versions). He claims that [[Lee Meriwether]], [[Julie Newmar]] and [[Eartha Kitt]] are the only real Catwoman and tries to show off by doing the Batdance. This creeps out Homer too and he leads his children away. Later in the episode West hired both {{ap|Mr. Plow|business}} and [[Plow King]], but since the Plow King was first West took his services instead. With the snow on his driveaway out of the way West quickly gets in his car while the music from the ''Batman'' TV series plays, to mimick similar scenes whenever Batman jumped into his Batmobile. Here, however, West's car just slowly chugs away at not-all-that-spectacular speed.  As  he drives away Barney yells: "Your secret is safe with me, Superman!"}}

So he just confirms it to move on to another question.}}

{{TB|"[[Lisa's Rival]]"}}
{{TB| When the two beekeepers decide to find out why all their bees have left, one of them yells: "To the bee mobile!", whereupon his colleague asks: "You mean: your Chevy?" and he mutters: "Yes." This is again a reference to the phrase: "To the Bat mobile!" [[Hank Azaria]], who voiced the beekeeper, deliberately patterned his speech pattern after [[Adam West]].}}

{{TB|"[[Radioactive Man]]"}}
{{TB| One of the comic titles Bart and Millhouse pass through in Comic Book Guy's store is titled ''[[Batchick]]'', in reference to Batgirl and Batwoman. The film makers want the ''Radioactive Man'' film to be different from the campy 1970s version, which is a reference to the fact that the makers of ''[[Batman]]'' (1989) also wanted the film to be darker in tone than the 1960s Batman TV series. The 1970s ''Radioactive Man'' version is a parody of the TV series ''Batman'', complete with tilted camera shots, onomatopeia appearing on the screen during fight scenes, a cartoonishly portrayed villain ([[The Scout Master]]) and Radioactive Man doing a dance similar to the Batdance.}}

[[Martin Prince, Jr.]] then points out this comic book actually exists, but Comic Book Guy replies it was just a dream sequence which never happened. When Bart points out that "none of these things ever really happened" Comic Book Guy tells him to leave his store. When Lisa talks with [[Daniel Clowes (character)|Daniel Clowes]] how much she liked ''Ghost World'' he tells her that he would rather draw ''Batman'' comics and starts talking about his utility belt, much to Lisa's disinterest.
