Alfred Matthew "Weird Al" Yankovic (born October 23, 1959) is an American singer-songwriter, musician, parodist, record producer, satirist, music video director, film producer, actor, and author. Yankovic is known for his humorous songs that make light of popular culture and often parody specific songs by contemporary musical acts.
In the commentary to an episode of The Weird Al Show, Weird Al Yankovic stated that he could have had Family Guy on his show.[1]
The main premise of "PTV" is similar to the premise of the 1980's Weird Al Yankovic film UHF.
When Peter leaves Stewie in the park and he is returned by another woman in "The Most Interesting Man in the World", Peter tries to gloss over the situation by proposing they watch a fictional documentary about Weird Al titled An Inconvenient Tooth. However, Lois refuses to be distracted and tells Peter he is an idiot.
After Peter accidentally performs oral sex on Babs in "The Munchurian Candidate", "Eat It", a parody of Michael Jackson's "Beat It" by Weird Al, plays during an otherwise silent car ride home for Peter and Lois.
