List of Cultural References To A Clockwork Orange - Television

Television

  • There have been references to the film on South Park. In "Coon 2: Hindsight", the scene where the Coon (Cartman) attacks the rest of the Coon's gang is reminiscent of the scene in which one of the members insists the gang be run in a "new way" that entails less power for Alex (Cartman); then while walking along, Alex attacks his "droogs" in order to re-establish his leadership. The scene also has the same music playing: an excerpt from the overture of The Thieving Magpie by Gioacchino Rossini.
  • The Simpsons contains frequent references to the film. In several episodes, Bart is portrayed as Alex DeLarge from the movie.
