- ↑ In The Tourmaline Necklace, a title card establishes Bride of Frankenstein's birth to have occurred in "1831." Following several other flashbacks, Bride runs away from Eric Frankenstein, and the next time they see each other is in "1852" as established by another title card. A montage is then shown of Frankenstein chasing Bride, with several title cards establishing the year in which these flashbacks are set. Finding a line of best fit and working backwards from 1852, it can be approximated that Bride ran away on December 36, 1838. During the second lesson, Bride of Frankenstein appears to still be early in her development, yet these flashbacks must stretch seven years, so in distributing the remaining flashbacks, efforts can be taken to ensure that this flashback is close to Bride's birth. This places the first flashback on May 18, 1933, Frankenstein trying to touch Bride on March 8, 1836, and Bride receiving the tourmaline necklace on August 2, 1837. The date on which each scene of the Chase of the Bride of Frankenstein is set, with exceptions explained in other references, can be approximated as the midpoint of the year they were placed in by their title card.

- ↑ 5.0 5.1 5.2 5.3 5.4 5.5 5.6 5.7 In Cheers to the Tin Man, Will Magnus states that G.I. Robot was built in 1943. Later in the episode, it is shown that G.I. Robot was in the United States on the day of their victory over Japan, suggesting, along with G.I. Robot's programming being specifically to kill Nazi soldiers, that G.I. Robot was only involved in the war in Europe, not Japan. Franklin Rock asks G.I. Robot during a flashback, "You getting the hang of this, Tin Man?" This suggests that it is early into G.I. Robot's time with Easy Company. To keep these events close together, G.I. Robot's creation, the announcement of his deployment, and the Ambush on Easy Company can be distributed throughout 1943. The remaining flashback, in which G.I. Robot takes several pictures with the members of Easy Company, at the midpoint of the ambush and the end of the war in Europe, placing it on July 20, 1944.

- ↑ Creature Commandos: 1.04: Chasing Squirrels
- ↑ In The Collywobbles, G.I. Robot says that he has not killed Nazis with a friend in "74 years, 23 days, and 52 minutes." This episode cannot be set earlier than September 2023 (see 2023 references), meaning even at its absolute earliest, G.I. Robot must be referring to a time after World War II. It must therefore be taken that G.I. Robot was sent on at least to kill Nazis who fled after the end of the war. Allowing the episode to fall at its natural setting places it on September 26, 2023, suggesting that G.I. Robot killed Nazis on September 3, 1949.
