** The sheer length of the Bible.
** How people haven’t made a “Priest and a Rabbi” joke in years.
** Lindsay Lohan, and women not wanting to have sex.
** How he can’t find the droids he’s looking for. Stormtroopers are shown watching the program and agreeing with him.
** That bread is square and bologna is round.
** Parents who let their kids do whatever they want.
** Being interrupted.
** X-ray glasses from comics that don’t work.
** People in the 19th century.
** America, which results in Peter saying “Fuck you!”

** The special opening credits are replaced by the standard theme song.
** The red carpet premiere featured at the beginning of the DVD.
** The first few gags at the swimming pool were cut such as Lois telling Chris how she went pro-choice after her pregnancy with Meg cost her the chance to be in the Olympics, Peter and Meg getting injured while trying to push Brian in the pool, and Quagmire and an unknown woman leaving a pump cabin after having oral sex inside [hence Quagmire’s “I guess I won’t be swimming for an hour” comment], going straight to Peter trying to get Stewie to swim.
** Lois telling Peter that he never should have been replaced by John Goodman on Roseanne and the cutaway where Peter plays Dan in a scene from Roseanne.
