Synopsis[]
The Futon Critic[]
You're watching the Unikingdom News Show Super Good Morning Time Program Action Information Show, a variety news program put on (badly) by Unikitty and the gang.[1]
Plot[]
Unikitty and Puppycorn start in the studio making origami, not realizing they are live until Dr. Fox tells them. They start introducing The Unikindom Good Morning Awesome Information Show Now, promising the weather, sports, science stuff, and an extremely juicy story.
The intro starts showing Unikitty amd Puppycorn as anchors, Dr. Fox as their expert on cooking and chemistry, Hawkodile with the weather, even though he thought he was doing sports, and Richard.
The first story is about a chili theif that appeared in the previous Big Chili Festival. A composite sketch was drawn by authorities after Dino Dude informs them that he was pretty sure it was Puppycorn (which is true). Richard intervenes wondering when the set was built, but Unikitty interuppts him and ensures that she was a professional.

Allusions[]
- The Bachelor - The commercial for "Third Degree Love Burns" parodies the rose ceremony and title graphics of ABC's The Bachelor. The two properties also use the same stock background music.
- Rose Buddies - 'Dr. Skwurt's Fantasy Yurt' from "Third Degree Love Burns" references a joke from the now-defunct McElroy Family podcast's "Episode 61: The Yurt Locker", in which cohost Griffin McElroy repeatedly refers to the Bachelor contestants' large tent as a 'Squirt Yurt'.
- Bill Nye the Science Guy- 'Dr. Fox's Science Corner' possesses a similar style and graphics to the educational program Bill Nye the Science Guy. Like Bill Nye, Dr. Fox also wears a bow tie.
- One Froggy Evening- Near the end of the episode, when Unikitty pulls out a cane and top hat which she lifts on and off of her head while side-stepping, could be a reference to Michigan J. Frog's dance from the 1950s Merrie Melodies cartoon, One Froggy Evening. (Both Unikitty! and Merrie Melodies are owned by Warner Bros.)
Trivia[]
- Starting with this episode, Dino Dude's voice is lower.
- Feebee's commercial jingle states that her flower shop is located "right off the 134". This could be a reference to California State Route 134, the highway that runs near Warner Bros. Studios, where the series is made.
- Comcast Xfinity's streaming subtitles for this episode label the "Third Degree Love Burns" Announcer as 'Dr. Skwurt', possibly assuming his identity based on the 'Dr. Skwurt's Fantasy Yurts' credit from the end of the episode. It is unclear if The Announcer is in fact 'Dr. Skwurt', or if Dr. Skwurt is merely the manufacturer of the Fantasy Yurt.
- During Brock's news segment, there appears to be a swarm of crabs in the background.
