Do you hear a dial tone? 'CAUSE BARNABY JONES IS OFF THE HOOK!

Two callbacks to my favorite episode in just as many weeks? Good show, Mr. Reed, good show.

WHAT THE HELL DAMN GUY

Hooray for diversity!

Given that a solid third of this episode's, nay, the show's humor comes from callbacks, then yes.

"You ever see Hooper?"
"Yeah, that robot with the big tits!"
"No, but that sounds awesome."
"It is!"
"I meant the Burt Reynolds movie where he's a hard-living stuntman."
"That sounds awesome."
"It is."

YES. I thought I was the only one who was happy to see more Tim in this episode- even so, I'm pretty sure poor Rachael didn't even get a single line…

@avclub-2d0cca95ad6a2061d208d765e79af478:disqus Good point. That, and the point someone made below regarding Boyd going to purpose [i]intentionally[/i] (If that didn't come out right it was meant to be italics) definetly alleviates some of the problems I might've otherwise had.

Please stop… even the idea of Hank and Britt rolling into Harlan in the greatest live action crossover ever has me teary-eyed.

Saw Peter Murphy a few months back- segueing "A Strange Kind of Love" into "Bela Lugosi's Dead" was my transcendant musical moment for the year.

There's a blowjob reference every ten seconds. Broadway writers call it subtext.

Didn't "Shakespeare in Love" win that year?

I'm sure there's a record set for amount of Goodfella's monologue references in a single Newswire…

Well, that's quite the palindrome.

I didn't actually watch, but I think I can say with 100% certainty that Quagmire's cameo in tonight's American Dad was funnier than anything this episode had to offer.
