"The Silly Nannies dance around a maypole and sing from Gilbert and Sullivan's The Sorcerer."

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)
Anyone notice similarities between Terrel Owens and this episode

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?
Wrightaway 06:29, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

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

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)

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)

"* Even though Carol Channing beats Mike Tyson on the spoof of FOX's Celebrity Boxing, Tyson technically won before he fell down exhausted since Channing was knocked down three times in one round."
A knockout occurs when the opponent cannot get back up in a specified amunt of time, usually a ten count. She got back up every time she was knocked down so therefore he did not technically win at all. PhoenixPrince (talk) 03:21, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Opening comment: As requested. The Flash {talk} 20:00, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

"It originally aired on Fox on January 29, 2006. The episode has a sports-theme and originally aired around the time of Super Bowl XL." -> "[...]January 29, 2006, around the time of Super Bowl XL, which fit the sports theme of the episode."
"Peter goes to his high school reunion and meets Tom Brady." -> "In it, Peter goes[...]"
"Stewie becomes a bookie and Brian loses[...]" -> "Meanwhile, Stewie becomes[...]"
"Peter wins many games for the Patriots but is fired for showboating and is traded to a team in London called the Silly Nannies. Peter plays versus the Patriots and loses, and returns home." -> move this to before the Stewie and Brian stuff.
"Jay Leno, Tom Brady, Carol Channing, Bob Costas and Troy Brown all guest star as themselves." -> "[...]all guest starred as themselves."
All done--Pedro J. the rookie 20:41, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

"Peter is soon fired for showboating: i.e. driving on to the field then performing a massively-choreographed version of the song "Shipoopi" after making one touchdown[...]" -> this is just un-neutral, to me. Try something like this: "Peter is soon fired for showboating, driving on to the field then performing a massively-choreographed version of the song "Shipoopi" after making one touchdown."

Combine the last two paragraphs (too short alone)

Move the Mike Henry image to the right, please.
done--Pedro J. the rookie 20:34, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
You list three directors here, but only one in the template. Add the other two to the template.
done--Pedro J. the rookie 20:34, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
You already linked to Mike Tyson in the Plot summary.
done--Pedro J. the rookie 20:34, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

The thing about the Dallas Cowboys at the end of the section is unsourced — cut it.
done--Pedro J. the rookie 20:35, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
That scene in which Brian tells Tom Brady he fell down the stairs is a White Chicks (2004 movie) reference, isn't it?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by LupusRexRgis (talk • contribs) 11:39, 7 May 2011 (UTC) 

It's not specific to that movie. It's a common euphemism for being beaten up and not wanting to implicate the person who did it that long predates White Chicks. Daniel Case (talk) 21:10, 20 December 2017 (UTC)

This whole thing needs expansion. Can you please add to what the two reviews actually say? Take, for example, The Great Wife Hope or Survival of the Fittest (The Spectacular Spider-Man).
Is that better i can't find any more recep.--Pedro J. the rookie 21:33, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

All good.

GA review (see here for criteria)
It is reasonably well written.
a (prose):  b (MoS): 
I've done a copyedit of the reception section, but I'd suggest moving the note Seth makes to right after the ratings info.
Done--Pedro J. the rookie 00:14, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references):  b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR): 

It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects):  b (focused): 
Both this and this list the episode on a top ten list. They should be included for this article to contain all info available.
done--Pedro J. the rookie 00:34, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
Refs 9 and 10 are still missing author info, though. The Flash {talk} 01:15, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
done.--Pedro J. the rookie 01:20, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias: 

It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.: 

It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):  b (appropriate use with suitable captions): 

Overall:
Pass/Fail: 
Almost there. The Flash {talk} 00:03, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the review--Pedro J. the rookie 01:22, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

No prob; thanks for taking care of the issues, consider the article passed. The Flash {talk} 01:32, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

not sure, but it says many viewers went through scenes looking for brady's penis
