[edit] wtf

family guy and simpsons episodes on the same day on evolution, who stole it first?

It could be that the network asked for it. Remember when Seinfeld refused to participate in the blackout theme for Must See TV a few years ago? Or it could just be a coincidence.

Can't you think of older Simpsons episodes from which this Family Guy episode's writers might have helped themselves? I can think of at least two. Cromulent Kwyjibo 22:57, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] About the NOR and CITE

I have a copy of the episode, and it was a typo in my part to include an exclamation point. Here is a link of the sceenshot regarding the "That's Pie" ruckus: http://www.imgmonkey.com/image/1286-thatspieproof.JPG And if you doubt the Robert Duvall or De Niro part I can post an audio file but I dont know where I could upload it. Do whatever you want to this article.

[edit] Notes

Sorry, but non-sequitur references cannot be counted as reality. If we count Adolf as a relative, we also have to count Peter as Huttese, Spanish and Jewish, and those are just off the top of my head.

The title:

DVD's state that the episode is called Griffin Family History, With no Untitled.

The official family guy site lists it as Untitled

I would take the DVD title till confirmed as Untitled because the UK DVD, released on the end week of October 2006, is very recent, therefore confirming it has recent source data, where as the Website may not have been updated to make the changes.

[edit] Region 4

>>>When the thieves get scared of Meg, she responds with "Take me now, fuck me later!", this is the chorus of Mindless Self Indulgence's song "Faggot". It was only seen on the Region 4 Volume 4 release.

Can anyone put a clip of this on YouTube or something? I really wanna see this! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.201.195.64 (talk) 01:03, 6 February 2007 (UTC).

I watched the episode tonight and didn't see that reference in there.

[edit] Willie "Black Eye" Griffin

That scene where he says like a whole sentence, and then the cue card reads "That's pie.", that's almost like the Radiohead video where the guy's talking at the end, but you don't know what he's saying unless you can lip-read. - Ndrly 10:12, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Inspired by Curb Your Enthusiasm?

If you look at the last scene where Peter voices his opinion on the Godfather films, I cant help but think that the style of that scene is almost identical to many of the situations in Curb Your Enthusiasm. The natural acting and almost unprofessional finish are the trademark styles of CYE and if you watch some of the episodes there are conversations in CYE with almost identical reactions and comments. (i.e Peter saying 'It insists on itself' and Lois repeating asking what the hell that means') its hard to explain but im sure any CYE fans will also see the resemblance.
