Anyone knows what's the title of this song? --SoWhy 19:30, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

It's "'Tis Twelve, I Think" --Alanhwiki 06:13, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Elizabeth Hurley?

I just don't get the reference to Elizabeth Hurley in this episode, and there's no mention of it in this article. Does anyone know what it means, and if so, could someone please add it to Cultural References?

UPDATE: I just found out what the reference is, so I'm adding it to the article. Wrightaway 18:17, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jay Leno-Tom Brady rivalry

Another cultural reference I didn't get: is there a real-life basis to Jay Leno threatening Tom Brady in the episode? Both of them voiced their fictional counterparts, according to the end credits. Another Slappywag Among Petorians 22:45, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:FGPatriotGames1.jpg

Image:FGPatriotGames1.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 Wikipedia: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. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] Clemen

If we're going to have the word clemen redirect to this article, shouldn't we make mention of the word at some point in the article?--Senna27 (talk) 16:02, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

It should redirect somewhere else. Google returns over 445,000 results that have nothing to do with Family Guy. TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 16:22, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

It has been removed. TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 21:51, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Are you planning to get rid of ALL the pics we have in the episode articles? That's crazy, we need them. TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 21:25, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
