==References to other Aardman productions== Several episodes of ''Rex the Runt'' contain inside references to other projects created by Aardman Animations: *In the episode "Adventures on Telly Part I", Wallace (from the ''[[Wallace and Gromit]]'' series) is washing the windows on Rex's house, until Bad Bob pushes his ladder over (in the film ''[[A Close Shave]]'', Wallace operates a window washing business). *[[Pib and Pog]], two of Aardman's lesser known creations, are present in the spectator gallery during the courtroom scene from "The Trials of Wendy" and are also present in the audience watching Rex's band in "Stinky's Search for a Star". *In the episode "Johnny Saveloy's Undoing", two of the jars containing the chemical essences of various stars are labelled "[[Wallace and Gromit|Wallace]]" and "[[Wallace and Gromit|Gromit]]". Another jar on the top shelf reads "[[Nick Park]]". *Osvaldo Halitosis in "Patio" is actually [[Morph (character)|Morph]], a character from an Aardman children's show, wearing a trench coat, hat, and large moustache. *There are two references in the episode "Wayne the Zebra": A ''[[Chicken Run]]''-style chicken (Edwina) is rejected during the auditions (with Bad Bob making a comment regarding the recent popularity of chickens, referring to the film's success), and Bad Bob consults the Aardman book ''Cracking Animation'' ({{ISBN|0-500-28168-8}}, published in the US as ''Creating 3-D Animation''). *The episode entitled "A Crap Day Out" may be a pun on the Wallace and Gromit short film ''[[A Grand Day Out]]''. *Both Wallace from Wallace and Gromit and Rex live on streets that sound similar to their names: whereas Wallace and Gromit live on "West Wallaby Street", it can be seen from the various post that arrives for the household that Rex and company live at "7, Marsupial Way, Rexford" *In the 2000 animated film [[Chicken Run]], Nick and Fetcher can be seen eating Chuffy dog food. * In the 2003 animated TV series ''[[Creature Comforts]]'': in the episode ''Is Anyone Out There?'' a blue alien wears a T-shirt with Vince on it. * In the 2006 film ''[[Flushed Away]]'': young rat named Maximillian "Shocky" Malone wears a green T-shirt with Rex on it. * In the 2015 film ''[[Shaun the Sheep Movie]]'': Vince is one of the photographed animals marked as 'contained' by Trumper. * In the 2019 film ''[[A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon]]'': During the end credits, the stars briefly form in the shape of Bad Bob.
