Also, in the episode Guess Hoe's Coming to Dinner there is a brief cameo of Jin, one of the main characters in Samurai Champloo (altough, he appears in a diferent attire). This is most likely a reference to "Gamblers and Gallantry", an episode in which Jin falls in love with a prostitute.

The episode The Red Ball also references heavily another episode of Samurai Champloo, "Baseball Blues".
