Coldplay appears in "April in Quahog" when Peter Griffin reveals he was kicked out for suggesting they make a song that isn't "whiny bullcrap".
In "Brian Griffin's House of Payne", a poster of Coldplay appears on the set of Class Holes!.
Meg asks her date Toby if he likes Coldplay in "Valentine's Day in Quahog", to which he gives an affirmative by noting that he is a dull, white guy.
In "Road to India", Stewie concedes that Padma and Brian make a cute couple, although he notes that so did Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin, setting up a cutaway in which Martin agrees to be nagged by Paltrow, while being compared to a "watered-down" Bono.
