Some episodes of The Simpsons include mocking references to Davey and Goliath. Adult Swim's Moral Orel started as a direct parody (minus the dog and plus some Dead Baby Comedy), but eventually blossomed into something more, at least until it was Screwed By the Network.
This series provides examples of:
- An Aesop
- The All American Boy: Davey.
- Animated Series
- Black Best Friend: Jonathan Reed is one of the earliest examples.
- Claymation
- Four Fingered Hands
- Jesus Saves
- Missing Episode: Several episodes have been embargoed from syndication by the ELCA, a "mainline" denomination, mostly due to Values Dissonance and/or Political Correctness issues. They have been released on DVD.
- The Moral Substitute
- Talking Animal: Goliath.
- Wham Episode: The Easter special episode, where Davey's grandmother dies.
