The Cleveland-Loretta Quagmire/Notes/Trivia

• Adam West’s cat Bootsy was previously mentioned in “Ready, Willing, and Disabled.”
• Though Cleveland and Loretta have a son, Cleveland Jr., neither his existence nor his fate because of the divorce is mentioned in this episode (in the commentary on the DVD version of this episode, the commentators do mention this error).
• On the DVD commentary of this episode, the main reason why the writers chose to remove Loretta from the series was revealed. Loretta’s voice actor, Alex Borstein (who also voices Lois and various other female characters), was apparently tired of doing Loretta’s voice, so the writers went one step ahead and had Loretta removed from the series. The commentary also reveals that she wasn’t very interesting, rather she was there for the sake of being Cleveland’s wife, so the writers also used that as a reason to get rid of her.
• The awkward pass Brian makes at Meg foreshadows their short-lived and creepy relationship portrayed in the episode “Barely Legal.”
• Brian suggests that Meg is 17 years old in this episode, but in “Peter’s Two Dads,” Meg celebrates her 17th birthday. However, Brian was drunk when he said the above statement, so he may not have been speaking factually.
• Lois pressures Peter to take CPR lessons because “no one knew what to do when Joe was drowning” yet in “Blind Ambition” Quagmire revives a woman in a dressing room (although it was revealed - by him saying "What the hell is CPR?" - that he was really taking advantage of her).
• Another chicken fight was meant to be in this episode but instead,aired on Blind Ambition;that episode was too short and this episode was too long.
• The patient in the "You Have AIDS" musical number is named after one of the show's writers, Tom Devanney.

Censorship

• When Peter gets kicked in the groin by the oranged-haired host of Kicked in the Nuts, the host’s mention of the word “nuts” (when he tells Peter and Lois the name of the show) was bleeped out on the FOX airing and on the censored track of the Region 1 DVD set. The Cartoon Network airing and the DVD’s uncensored audio track have the word intact.
