  • Many of the game's questions dealt with "making whoopee", the euphemism that producers used for sexual intercourse in order to get around network censors. However, it became such a catch phrase of the show that Bob Eubanks continued to use the word throughout the show's many runs, even in the 1980s and 1990s episodes, when he could easily have said "make love" or "have sex" without censorship. The Griffins are watching The Newlywed Game at the beginning of the "Family Guy Viewer Mail No. 1" segment "No Bones About It".
  • The Newlywed Game is a game show pitting recently married couples against one another for a prize that was "chosen just for you." Hosted by Bob Eubanks for most of its incarnations, the original series debuted in 1966, and still airs in syndication and first run episodes today. Famed for its double entendre questions, the show got past many of its more overtly sexual questions with the phrase, "making whoopee", which became a popular catchphrase for Eubanks.
