I'll start whit some of my favorite ones
When Oscar is in his trailer and Lucille calls him, on the TV in the backround you can see "Mr. Bananagrabber" is on The classics "Arm Off" and "Wee Brain" And many, at the last half of S3, there's many jokes about the Show's cancellation |

This one is really subtle
In "Good Grief" you see a weird code in wall in Mexico that says "P2252" I've read some theories that say the code is a reference of the date Peanut first appeared on Charlie Brown (which follows the overall 'charlie brown' theme of the episode), but honestly I have no ****ing clue Anyway, in "Prison Break-In" that same code is the code that unlocks George Sr.’s ankle bracelet that keeps him in house arrest I Love this little thigs that you only notice after several viewings <3 Last edited by upthemorning; 11-14-2009 at 10:09 AM |

some more known ones The actress who plays Nelly, the prostitute who Michael belives to be his sister is Jason Bateman's real sister In Motherboy XXX, Barry Zuckerkorn jumps over a shark, in reference to his character on Happy Days (Fonz) jumping over the tank containing a shark and the phrase "jumping the shark"... it can also be seen as a joke to themselfs overdoing the Burger King joke in the episode, because Barry makes another Burgwer King reference right before jumping over the skark Last edited by upthemorning; 11-14-2009 at 10:13 AM |

I saw this on ONTD:
Guh I love this show. EVERYTHING is funny... EVE HOLT! and GOB's "go camping with my dad".(reference to George Sr. always cancelling camping at the last minute to go away with his whores) . This show is too much, even those tiny jokes only massive fans will get like this one. |
