Many of Blofeld's characteristics have become tropes in popular fiction, representing the stock character of the supervillain, with the stroking of his white cat often retained as a parodic allusion to Blofeld's character, as seen in the "Austin Powers" film series with the character of Dr. Evil and his cat Mr. Bigglesworth, or in the cartoons "Inspector Gadget" with the character of Dr. Claw and "Danger Mouse" with the character of
The Mr. Men Show (1997) among others. The re-voiced animated segments from this show later appeared on their own on Cartoon Network's preschooler-aimed program "Small World", which showcased animation from around the world.
