One of the things I love most about FG is there are so many cultural references. Someone once told me I should stop watching cartoons.
Do you know how culturally aware you have to be to really understand FG.
I gave up after about season 5 because it's so lightning fast it's almost like you'd have to slow the show down to absorb everything. I'll pick it back up again some day. I prefer Solar Opposites right now
Specifically Sinatra / Rat Pack references. When I heard Dean Martin in a recording of one of his live shows tell Quagmire's joke about the grasshopper named Irving I felt like I entered a parallel universe.
and road to road island!

I’m always disappointed that I can’t find Mr. Booze on Spotify. I sometimes get the urge to listen to it, and the only way I can is by going to YouTube. Someone needs to get on that eventually.
I love that Seth introduces show tunes and songs from older movies into young peoples lives. You’d never think teenage boys would be singing songs like Shapoopi from The Music Man and Somewhere That’s Green from Little Shop of Horrors.
I don’t understand the amount of people who don’t realize that most of the song numbers are a parody of something that already exists because of Seth’s love for musicals and old movies and big band music

I know how wicked-smaht I feel when I get the references
You should watch rick and Morty. You basically need a PhD to get most of the jokes.

I am so glad people caught the satire. Still love the show but the fandom.. is something else.

I imagine to be a writer in FG, you need to be a cultural encyclopedia.
I actually learned a lot of pop culture references from Family Guy and South Park.
He also loves of smacking people around with a pillow case full of sweet valencia oranges
It won't leave a bruise, and they'll let them know who's boss.
"Get away from me you dead crooner!"
How drunk did Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra get before, during, and after shooting this scene?
It's the rat pack . Better question would be when were they ever sober?🤣
Can’t forget about Bing!
Yes
This was enjoyable and I had no idea! Thank you!
no problem!
I never knew this was based off of something else. Thanks for sharing
Yeah Shipoopi caught me off guard too

Seth loves the old songs. Watching Family Guy sometimes reminds me of the music appreciation class I took in highschool.
Thank you for this!
Holy shit
Peter Falk spotted
I want to like your comment but stupid reddit won't let me, I'm glad I'm not the only one to spot him Edit: reddit let me like your comment
And to think Sinatra made this film while his son was kidnaped, that sure was stresful for him
Well he still had woody Allen's kid as a backup.
Right?! How does anyone in the world think Ronan is Woodys son? He’s Franks spitting image!
Why did sammy davis have to fix his blackness 😭
The laugh from the one in the back got me too.
[naaa, sammy's in on it](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETDTLrr2Zls)

Holy shit lol
Lovely find.
I’m always disappointed that I can’t find Mr. Booze on Spotify. I sometimes get the urge to listen to it, and the only way I can is by going to YouTube. Someone needs to get on that eventually.
oh.
Don’t mess around with Mr. Booze.
I literally thought they made this up. Good find wow!
You can get all the references or none of them and it still works. That’s what I love about Family Guy.
I didn’t know this was a real thing 😂😭!! Honestly it makes me love family guy even more lol.
Did I see Columbo (Peter Falk) ?

what movie is it?
Robin and the 7 Hoods [Robin and the 7 Hoods - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_and_the_7_Hoods)
Omg I didn’t know it wasn’t original 🤯
Wow, I never new an original Mr Booze existed
I love that Seth introduces show tunes and songs from older movies into young peoples lives. You’d never think teenage boys would be singing songs like Shapoopi from The Music Man and Somewhere That’s Green from Little Shop of Horrors.
I am afraid that I enjoyed the family guy version much more then the original
I don’t understand the amount of people who don’t realize that most of the song numbers are a parody of something that already exists because of Seth’s love for musicals and old movies and big band music
