Last line
Dot : Here's the show's namey...
Trivia
In the original airing of this episode, the last line is changed to "Chicken chow meiny".
Dot recites her rather morbid interpretation of "Mary Had a Little Lamb," called "Requiem for a Lamb." It is only 1 sentence long: "Mary had a little lamb with mint jelly."
Mobster Mash
Written by Nicholas Hollander Directed by Greg Reyna and Dave Marshall
Animation by Wang Film Production
Synopsis
The Warners pester a mafia don (a parody of The Godfather ) in an Italian restaurant because mafia tried to take the booth the Warners had been sitting in just because it was his booth.
Trivia
The episode's title is a pun on that of the 1962 novelty song "Monster Mash".
The Godfather is satirized throughout the whole segment.
The Goodfeathers appears in a cameo.
The song about Italian food The WB Kids sing parodies Rossini's famous Tarantella.
Dot's pet appears.
When the Godfather threatens the Warners with "sleeping with the fishes", Wakko asks if Jimmy Hoffa is there, a reference to Hoffa's disappearance.
Goofs and Inconsistencies
Throughout most of the cartoon, the Warners refer to spaghetti as "psketti" even though they actually used the correct word during their song at the beginning.
The restaurant is called Mario Puzzo's, although it is actually spelled "Puzo", with one Z.
