[edit] Season Correction

Ive got the collectors (UK) edition box set, and according to that its a season 3 episode 13. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.13.152.241 (talk) 23:44, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Scott Colomby

While it is true that Scott Colomby never hosted SNL, he is indeed a real actor. The line about "fictional host" is a bit unclear. He was in Caddyshack and the Porkys movies in the 80's.

[edit] Indian burial ground

The Indian burial ground was not a reference to Pet Cemetary, but to Poltergeist, as the episode title and plot suggests. PrometheusX303 18:24, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Good Episode

Brilliant episode, I think being axed was a good thing for Family Guy, because when they came back they were even more funny! One of the best shows on television JayKeaton 08:01, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Braille Joke

I got bored, so tried to figure out the Braille Joke that Peter Tells to the Blind Man:

Peter: "Hey: Bump, bump, no bump, bump, three vertical bumps, four bumps in a square."
Blind man: "Haha, yeah i've heard they all look alike.

I have no idea. Only the letters L and G are interpretable: I didn't think it was meant to be interpretable anyway. JaffaCakeLover 01:31, 09 September 2006 (GMT)

[edit] New Zealand

Do we really need to know New Zealanders got to hear some swear words? I propose deleting the section. Great country, pointless facts. Lots42 02:32, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

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

Image:FGPetergeist.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.
