# Talk:It Takes a Village Idiot, and I Married One

How come this episode has a screenshot? even though it did not air? (24.184.46.20 17:50, 19 February 2007 (UTC))
on the official family guy blog they posted screenshotsGrande13

err.. Does the banner on the stage, in the screenshot say "Governor Debate"? aren't they contending for the office of Mayor? 192.8.211.11 09:21, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Did anyone else notice the episode (when it airs) says that it's written as "a.bo."  This is obviously "Alex Borstein", but why a.bo?

Presumably as a reference to J-Lo. Felicity4711 00:38, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Did someone remove my comment about the left-handed guitar? I'm pretty sure it was accurate. Just in case, here it is again.
Peter Griffin was using a left-handed guitar at the campfire. other instances, such as the rock lobster song in The Cleveland-Loretta Quagmire and most of Deep Throats had him playing a normal guitar. (82.46.178.34 05:20, 17 May 2007 (UTC))

Um.. when did Peter ever experience the perks of being the first lady? It didn't even seem like there were two plots in this one.
it was brief, but he had the power to reroute the electricity and bring back that comedian.  there might have been other small details as well Grande13 17:27, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
"After the lake is cleaned, however, Lois — and Peter, using Lois — begins to abuse her power, at first by using some of the tax surplus to buy a $600 purse"
There wasn't enough Peter being invovled to classify as a subplot.

I know that Keith Olbermann was on the show as Bob Grossbeard  but , WHERE IS HE!!! I diidn't catch him in the FOX version, but I don't pay attention to small details when I first see an episode. I'd much rather laugh than work. So I payed attention in the [adult swim] version. He still isn't there. Where is he!?! --BrianGriffin-FG 15:54, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Nevermind. I found it.--BrianGriffin-FG 22:31, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

In the second-to-last point on this section, it states that Fox edits the Channel 5 newscast, so that Tom Tucker remarks: "Can a woman really be mayor, or will she just bleed all over the city?" where on the Adult Swim version they replace bleed with menstrate. As I just watched the FOX episode, I can confirm that either they re-edited the line to it's original version or that it was a false statement to begin with.

per WP:V, if no third party sources exist for a topic, we should not have an article on it. -- The Red Pen of Doom 20:14, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Support Mention of the book could easily be handled here. DP76764 (Talk) 20:16, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
Oppose; the book and the episode have nothing to do with each other. Maybe it should be deleted, but I don't see why it should be merged just because it has the same title. Tezkag72 (talk) 20:14, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
"the book and the episode have nothing to do with each other"??? "The book covers events featured in the Family Guy episode "It Takes a Village Idiot, and I Married One", with which it shares a title." -- The Red Pen of Doom 20:34, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
Support Merge away, no need for a discrete article about the book. L0b0t (talk) 20:45, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
Oppose -74.34.217.222 (talk) 02:01, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
Support Merge, no need for disparate articles. 68.175.94.200 (talk) 03:46, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
Oppose The TV show has a particular context as part of a series, and the book is a separate work. Nuujinn (talk) 23:00, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
Is it well written?
A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct: 
In the Plot, "...as Mayor West proves more politically savvy than she", shouldn't "she" be "her"? Same section, same sentence, just a suggestion ---> "...as Mayor West proves to be more politically savvy than her", again just a suggestion.
Done. Gage (talk) 20:11, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
Check.
B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation: 

Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?
A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline: 

B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose): 

C. It contains no original research: 

D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism: 

Is it broad in its coverage?
A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic: 

B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):

It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each: 

Is it stable?
It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute: 

Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content: 

B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions: 

Overall:
Pass or Fail: 
Not that much to do. If the above query can be dealt with, I will pass the article. Good luck!

Your concerns have been addressed. Gage (talk) 20:11, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for addressing it, cause I have gone off and placed the article as GA. Congrats. ;) If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to a GA review. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:13, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

The song is just about Don (Donny) Most. It's neither Rock Around the Clock or the Happy Days theme.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vicious203 (talk • contribs) 02:29, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
