Na, I think the references show that they (the Creators) are comfortable with their achievements and the fact that they have a fanbase who'll respond to that stuff as it makes the show even more alive.

It's a fair point of course as self-referencing can be a sign of a decreasing spiral, we've seen it many times, but I could give you many wonderful exceptions from various artistic fields. For the record I still maintain that Petite Pois was a genius creation. It wasn't my favourite Season 5 ep but certainly not the weakest and I've not seen them all yet.

This is confusing but if season 5 was season 1, I still think we'd all have been hooked by this show and I think Peas would have been given a much warmer reception as there'd be less perception of him treading on people's toes or stealing a episode from beloved, sometimes overlooked, established characters.
