But wait, there's much more!

As promised, Here is an almost-full list of Ron Popeil's multimedia appearances:

* "Weird Al" Yankovic recorded the song "Mr. Popeil" on his second studio album, "Weird Al" Yankovic in 3-D. The song was a "style parody" (i.e., not a direct parody of a specific song, but emulating a performer's specific style) of the early music of the B-52's (and bore a striking resemblance to their first hit single, "Rock Lobster"). The verses are structured as pitches for unnamed but easily recognizable Ronco products, and draws upon all the catchphrases associated with the Ronco infomercials, including the phrases "It slices! It dices!", "Take advantage of this amazing TV offer!", and Ed Valenti's more commonly heard phrase"Now how much would you pay?". One of Weird Al's background vocalists was Lisa Popeil, sister of Ron Popeil[2]. This song is actually a tribute to Samuel Popeil, Ron Popeil's father, who was in the same business of inventing and selling products.[5]

* On his 1983 album, DaDa, Alice Cooper sings, "I love General Patton in World War II, my Pocket Fisherman and my Crazy Glue" in the song "I Love America".

* On his 1983 album, Affordable Art, Steve Goodman sings Vegematic. It is a narration of a man who falls asleep with the TV on and orders from every infomertial that airs, he then awakes, believing it was a dream. After 4–6 weeks, he does actually receive every single product he dreamt about, revealing that it was no dream. Most notable in the song are the Vegematic, Ginsu knife, Pocket Fisherman, and numerous items from/for Six Flags (theme park) Over Burbank.

* In the X-Files episode "Beyond the Sea," Scully is shown sleeping while Ron Popeil touts the wonders of his Spray-On Hair (Great Looking Hair Formula #9) for only $39.95. The ad continues for a few seconds, displaying the product's fabulous abilities before shifting to show Scully awakening to the ghost of her recently deceased father.

* Lemon Demon references Popeil in their song, "Hyakugojyuuichi 2003", off of the album Clown Circus with the line, "Props to Neil, he’s the real deal, His friends all call him Mr. Popeil."
