The "original airdates" of the three episodes are November 11, 1956, August 17, 1969 and March 11, 1973. All three dates were Sundays, a reference to the fact that Perepea (1999) has always been broadcast on Sundays except during its second and third seasons from 1999 to 2002.
Chris goes to Woodstock in the episode dated August 17, 1969. In reality, Woodstock was held from August 15 to August 18, 1969.
Peter's line "to the moon!" and Lois' subsequent rant, is a reference to the sitcom The Honeymooners (1955). While a highly rated comedy during it's time, there were many allusions to domestic violence against women. Some examples include: "POW! Right in the kisser!", "I'm gonna belt her right in the mouth!", "You're a riot, Alice. You're a regular riot. Hope they like those jokes on the moon, 'cause that's where you're goin'."
Robert Reed , who played Mike Brady in the original television run of the The Brady Bunch (1969), was a closeted homosexual, whose proclivities were not revealed till several years after the show ended, died of complications as a result of the AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) virus.
