"Sparks" was featured in the TV series Six Feet Under, season 2 episode 6 (about 51 minutes into the episode). It is played in a scene with Nate entering Brenda’s apartment, finding her hard at work on her computer writing her novel. The two of them talk about people choosing to stay together through bad relationships.

gollark: Obviously this will have to know when a process exits so it can restart it, but people want to be able to stop/start/restart a service.
gollark: I see. So for my thing I suppose I'll just have to have a thread waiting for each process (ugh, but what can you do) and then... hope that if I kill that, `wait` will handle it okay.
gollark: Are those just magically callbacked?
gollark: But it's also able to respond to signals and start/stop it accordingly somehow.
