== Biography ==
The Hypnotoad has used its ability on many: a few sheep and the judges at a pet show {{et|3ACV07}}, an announcer, whom it hypnotized to death ([[Bender's Big Score|BBS]]), and the viewers of [[Rebirth|the return of ''Futurama'']] {{et|6ACV01}}. It also had its image shown in the [[V-GINY]], which suggests it is censorable {{et|6ACV02}}, one of its webisodes featured on the [[eyePhone]] {{et|6ACV03}}, and ''[[Hypnotoad On Ice]]'' interrupted by breaking news on [[Hedonismbot]] {{et|6ACV07}}. With no relevance to the story, it was seen in ''[[Everybody Loves Hypnotoad]]'' numerous times ([[Bender Should Not Be Allowed on Television|4ACV06]], [[Lrrreconcilable Ndndifferences|6ACV11]]). The Hypnotoad is rarely seen not hypnotizing ([[Into the Wild Green Yonder|ITWGY]]).
 
== As a meme ==
The Hypnotoad is also a well known {{w|meme}} (also known as an Internet phenomenon).<ref>[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/hypnotoad Hypnotoad at KnowYourMeme.com]</ref> ''[[Futurama]]'' has spawned many memes, but this is by far the most popular. It is used as an interruptor of sorts. Its usage usually involves it being mentioned in a sentence, which is abruptly interrupted in the middle with ''ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD''.
 
=== Examples ===
*"Hypnotoad is stu''ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD''."
*"Why is this Hypnotoad video so popu''ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD''."
 
== Additional Info ==
=== Trivia ===
*[[Everybody Loves Hypnotoad#Episode 3H312: Amazon Adventure|A full 22-minute episode of ''Everybody Loves Hypnotoad'']] was featured on the DVD release of ''[[Bender's Big Score]]''.
*Its eyes are naturally green colored. However, they do not automatically revert to green the moment it stops hypnotizing.
*The noise used is an auditory notice played when a button is pressed erroneously in the editing program the show uses, a product from Avid. An unnamed editor, most likely audio editor {{w|Paul Calder}}, titled it ''Angry Machine'' and looped it for the Hypnotoad. It was originally a temporary sound, but the audience and staff both liked it.
*It is possible that Hypnotoad uses the [[delta brainwave]] to hypnotize people. This is evident when Fry, the only person who lacks the brainwave, was capable of commenting on ''[[Everybody Loves Hypnotoad]]'' by saying "This show has been going downhill since season 3" and everyone else seemed to like it. {{et|4ACV06}}
