The Wilhelm scream? really?

I watch this show whenever I run out of other things to watch, usually put it on when I'm doing other things so it's just background noise, but just watched the Blame Game episode and in the intro when there was an explosion they inserted the Wilhelm scream.

Skimmed through to the point in the show where an engine destroyed itself to double check and sure enough, the Wilhelm scream was inserted into the audio.

Very lame.

If you're wondering what the Wilhelm scream is, it's been used in a LOT of films and (non reality) tv shows, listen here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilhelm_scream and keep an ear out in all the blockbuster films you watch from now on

LOL, I heard that too and actually rewound it to hear it again. I don't see it as lame though. I see it as a neat easter egg. I think it had to be added as a joke.
