Tom chooses between a hammer, baseball bat, chainsaw and katana to kill the rabbits, just as Butch in Pulp Fiction chooses between these weapons to fight Zed and Maynard.
The show starts with characters watching a show called "Father Ben". "Father Ben" has the exact same opening titles as "Father Ted" except the word "Ted" is changed to "Ben", even the music is the same. The characters, sets and costumes in "Father Ben" all lampoon those of "Father Ted".
