Talk:Don't Make Me Over (Family Guy)


 * Were there any reports that Tommy Lee had hepatitus? Quagmire says he just found out he had it, which made it appropriate for him to portray Tommy Lee.JW 07:14, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

The "Meg's former real boyfriend" may be a reference to Stephen King 's novella "The Body"


 * I think Cleveland's outfit wasn't just a generic funk band reference, but a reference to the Commodores Brick House video. —Preceding unsigned comment added by PsychoTim (talk • contribs) 02:45, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:4acx04.jpg
Image:4acx04.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

"Buy Me A Rainbow"
Is this a pre-existing song, or another Family Guy original? It sounds a lot like the songs The Brady Bunch sang when they were a singing group, but it could just be a well-crafted satire. --63.25.109.125 (talk) 08:22, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Correction and complaint
"The second episode that implies Brian's racism against African Americans is 'Chick Cancer', when Stewie asks what kind of a man Stewie would be if he immediately gave up on life after Olivia dumped him, and Brian says, 'You'd be a black man.' Then once again, Brian apologizes profusely in the exact same manner, and blames the impulse on his father."

That's wrong. That isn't at all what the question was. Stewie was asking something to the effect of, What if he gave up on Olivia, on the relationship, just because it was starting to get difficult? Olivia had not dumped him yet. This is an entirely different thing.

I'd fix it myself, but I just cannot STAND these Family-Guy-episode articles. First, they "re-tell" the entire story, ruining most of the humor, and then, between the "Cultural References" and the "Trivia" section, they manage to stomp on every last remaining joke as it flees the WikiProject behemoth like an ant before a giant.

In my opinion, an article on an individual Family Guy article should have a brief, unfinished description of the plot, followed by a few explanations of only the most obscure jokes or references. For example, one episode made a rather elliptical reference to Benjamin Disraeli, the joke being (it seemed to me) that he's one of those guys you've heard of, but you have no idea who he really was or what he did. That's the sort of thing that could use some explanation and elaboration. But on the OTHER hand. . . I just went to the relevant article, and someone has "explained" the Disraeli reference in an entirely different way! This other person saw it as a case of FG making fun of itself for its obscure references. So why the fuck are we "explaining" these references at all, anyway?!?
