The sentence "It turns out this store and several other record stores had already been visited by Brian and Stewie who had bought and destroyed all the copies." This is an interpretation. In the episode, Peter only says that he was told by the store owners that all the records were bought by "a dog and a baby".

Prior to airing

Prior to airing, the only thing that can be relied upon as to the content of this episode is what was shown in the commercial after the previous episode (an event which is somewhat of a rarity for FOX). Everything else is about as reliable as a fanfic. ShutterBugTrekker (talk) 20:01, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hilton

What happened to Paris and Perez Hilton? Weren't they suppose to be on this episode? --70.26.57.194 (talk) 01:47, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

They were, but for some reason, their parts were cut. We should wait until a site publishes information why their parts were cut. A (Reply!,Contribs!) 01:52, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Phone line

As for Cultural References the scene where the woman calls the phone line, the voice on the phone seemed IDENTICAL to the voice of the computer in the movie "Idiocracy". Where the computer is asking for a name and confirmes the wrong name. Anyone else notice this?

No, they were just making fun of deaf people.

Image?

Did anyone happen to upload an image of this episode to help portray the events of this episode? It just seems appropriate. Immblueversion (talk) 02:06, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, I got it. Immblueversion (talk) 19:44, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Good job on the pic! CTJF83Talk 20:47, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Record Store

Would it be okay for someone to list all the albums that are shown in the record store? I only recognized In Utero by Nirvana. Supermartianpacmangirl (talk) 01:39, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I personally oppose that kind of trivial information. As it says at Wikipedia:Listcruft and Wikipedia:Fancruft, listing those is unnecessary and is "crufty" CTJF83Talk 03:02, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In the picture accompanying this article, you can clearly see Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" and R.E.M.'s "Automatic For The People", as well as portions of what appear to be Van Halen's "II", AC/DC's "Back In Black", and Led Zeppelin's debut album.Ringlerm (talk) 17:00, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I would support this inclusion, the other cultural references in this article are just as "fan-crufty". And, yes, I came here to point out the same thing: Nirvana's In Utero angel poster was on the wall. ScarianCall me Pat! 01:39, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
also a metallica sticker...just tossin it out there...♠♦Д narchistPig♥♣ (talk)
I'm in favor of pop culture references, but a laundry list of the posters in the background of a record store seems kind of excessive. Unless there's something out-of-place or humorous about the poster, it's simply standard decoration. You'd see posters of that manner on ANY tv show... there's nothing significant or interesting about it. You wouldn't include a list of all the furniture in Peter's house, would you?Wefrucar (talk) 10:20, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

References to Other Episodes

I see that other Family Guy articles here have a section that sites the references to past episodes. Seeing as how I added that section here, and someone deleted it, I am for some reason not "right" enough to write it, so can someone else? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.227.159.15 (talk) 03:27, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

We don't list references to other episodes, as it is fancruft. Other episodes may have it, but that is because I or another user, hasn't gone and removed it. CTJF83Talk 05:23, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fifties diner

Ref to Pulp Fiction? Why can't it just be a fifties diner? Lots42 (talk) 17:23, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Excessive Plot tag

I still think the Excessive Plot tag is appropriate for the article. The article only consists of 4 sentances that are not plot or rehash of plot under the umbrella of "cultural references" - so the episode steals a lot from other artistic materials - what is the significance? -- The Red Pen of Doom 16:07, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

How would the article look good for you? With only 2 sentences? Alecsdaniel (talk) 14:56, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Isn't the point of Wikipedia to provide information? Maybe someone spots a cultural reference in an episode but can't quite place their finger on where it comes from - so they come to wikipedia to satiate their curiosity. Shouldn't they be able to find that info here? I don't understand what you want this article to contain otherwise - literary analysis?? Every single other family guy episode article contains the same sections, why limit this one's?Wefrucar (talk) 12:38, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Wefrucar, you are wrong. The point of Wikipedia is creating an encyclopedia. Considering our policy WP:V ("If no reliable, third-party sources can be found featuring significant coverage of a topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it."), and the fact that there are no third party references substantively discussing the topic, this article should be merged into a "List of Family Guy episodes Season whatever"" -- The Red Pen of Doom 15:00, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Another reference?

The scene where Stewie and Brian destroy the first Surfin' Bird record-is that a reference to anything? I just seems as though it is. Also, what's the name of the song that plays in that scene?58.107.138.121 (talk) 21:18, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it's a reference to the movie Office Space. The main characters in the movie all quit their job and they steal a printer and beat it up in a field, with the same music, and it's all down in slow motion. That is the reference. xElkux

Author's plot interpretation

The sentence "It turns out this store and several other record stores had already been visited by Brian and Stewie who had bought and destroyed all the copies." This is an interpretation. In the episode, Peter only says that he was told by the store owners that all the records were bought by "a dog and a baby". 87.63.228.190 (talk) 22:37, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
