Trivia
- Billy West the robot is named after Billy West the voice actor. When Fry, who is voiced by West, hears the robot's name, he says that it is a stupid fake name.
- This may be a reference to the Simpsons episode "Homer Simpson, This Is Your Wife", in which Homer insults Dan Castellaneta, his voice actor.
- In "Lethal Inspection", it is revealed that robots are immortal, so Billy may not be dead. Although it is possible that, like Bender, he has no wireless back up unit.
