| | MST3K Zappa References |
| | Based on my long-held theory that there is, on the AVERAGE, at least one Frank Zappa reference per episode, I |
| | have begun tracking the occurances as I run across them. Time listed is based upon the 2hr broadcast format, |
| | including commercials. This list is probably not complete and if you have any items you wish to add to this list, or |
| | have any questions regarding specific references, please write me at cheepnis AT cheepnis D0T com or visit |
| | http://www.cheepnis.com Enjoy! |

| | A big Thank You goes to the following contributers: Michael Shannon, Andrew Smith, Ian Miller, Chad, Clay |
| | Urquhart, Robert Isaacson - Additional material mined from the excellent list compiled by Bob Eichler, referred to |
| | me by Rich Kegarise. Thanks Rich and Bob! |
