Line 15:

*In the ''[[Dexter's Laboratory]]'' episode ''Game Over'', a dangerous videogame called "Master Computer" takes over Dexter's Computer. The Master Computer speaks like and resembles the MCP, and forces Dexter to play a game similar to the lightcycles in Tron.

*In [[The Bad News Ghouls / The House of No Tomorrow|an episode]] of ''[[The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy]]'', [[Billy (Billy and Mandy)|Billy]], [[Mandy (Billy and Mandy)|Mandy]], and [[Grim (Billy and Mandy)|Grim]] get locked in a "house of the future" controlled by a computer similar to the MCP with a similar hatred of humanity. There is also another man in there who explains everything about the computer, imitating the scenario of ''Tron''.

* ''[[Family Guy]]'' has been known to parody Tron on several occasions. In one example, Peter plays the Light Cycles racing game and runs into an old friend on the game grid. Peter asks what he does for a living, and his friend says "I'm the red guy. What are you doing?" Peter responds "I'm the green guy" before tricking Peter into getting destroyed.
