* {{Pixellation}}: The Woody is censored by mosaics. Sadly, the DVD version doesn't have an uncensored version of that scene.
* PreviouslyOn: Parodied; none of the scenes in said montage were from "[[Recap/FamilyGuyS3E1TheThinWhiteLine The Thin White Line]]".

* FunnyAneurysmMoment: [[Creator/BillCosby Bill Cosby]] makes fun of a little girl's story of being raped on Kids Say the Darndest Things. Later in this episode, Cosby starts playing with Stewie's mind control goggles and tells him to "sit here and enjoy it." This was before several real-life women accused Cosby of raping them for five decades.

Picking up where "[[Recap/FamilyGuyS2E1TheThinWhiteLine The Thin Blue Line]]" left off (after a series of parodies of cliffhanger scenes from action shows, legal dramas, and soap operas), Brian settles into Hollywood, living with his CampGay cousin Jasper and taking on odd jobs in order to support himself while networking with Hollywood's many movie stars and producers -- until he gets a chance to direct X-rated movies. Meanwhile, Lois signs Stewie up for auditions for the show, ''Kids Say The Darndest Things'', and Stewie uses this opportunity to brainwash the masses with his latest invention.

* BigStupidDooDooHead: TropeNamer. Bill Cosby is seen interviewing a little girl on ''Kids Say'', who cries to him about a man who did something terrible to her. She describes him has having a scar on his left arm and "a big, stupid doo-doo head."
* {{Bowdlerize}}: In the Channel 4 UK and the American free-TV version, Stewie's line, "God, look at me, having sex with a pig. I've become my father!" is removed.

* SoundtrackDissonance: At the Woodys, there's an award for Best Music in a porn film. The first two nominees play very typical porn music on synthesizer keyboards by sleazy men, but the third nominee is Music/JohnWilliams, whose full orchestra plays music from ''Indiana Jones''.
* TakeThat: According to Brian, it's less embarrassing to admit you're invited to a screening of the new Val Kilmer picture than the new Kevin Costner picture.

The episode starts with a parody of recaps to cliff hanger scenes from crime dramas, legal dramas, and soap operas, ending with Peter reading a letter that Brian went to Los Angeles to find himself (even though he was there when Brian announced during his "Welcome Back From Rehab" party that he was going away to California to live with his gay cousin, Jasper). Meanwhile in L.A., Brian, wanting to be a screenwriter, works as a waiter, and then at a car wash, and gets to work in the business, only to find that his first assignment is a porno movie. Brian is, at first apprehensive, but after seeing one of the actresses in a thong and reading over the script for a film described as ''Bang the Drum Slowly'' (except the drum's a chick), he goes along with it, and works to make the porno movies he directs more meaningful in their subtext and character motivations.

Conveniently, tryouts for "Kids Say The Darndest Things" are in Quahog, and Stewie makes it on the show, which means the Griffins get to go to Los Angeles and find Brian, who's trying to keep a secret about being a porn director.
