During the Festival of Living Pictures as the curtains close on a painting the viewers don't see, Taylor announces that the painting was Pablo Picasso's "Guernica", but it would be impossible to re-enact this painting with people as it is not a portrait but an abstract painting of shapes and figures.
When Lorelai is talking about being the Renoir girl, she says that she'd "do anything to wear that pretty dress again" however when it comes to Lorelai's costume and makeup as the Renoir girl all she wears for the part is a peasant shirt and jeans.
At the end of the episode we see both Rory and Lorelai running towards Sookie's house to be at Davey's birth, but in "Blame Booze and Melville," Rory is totally disgusted by the idea of Sookie being in labor.
In the beginning of the episode, Rory is doing her laundry. When she realizes the washer doesn't work, she's holding a pile of laundry. In one shot a pink shirt is on top of the pile but when they switch shots the pink shirt is in the middle of the pile.
Rory says she will trick Taylor into making Lorelai the Renoir girl, which is not like Rory at all, but it shows how strong their relationship is.
When Lorelai is showing Sookie the box of when she was pregnant with Rory, the magazine with John Travolta is right-side-up in one shot but in the next shot, it's upside-down.
Rory: Hey, you hear that?
Lorelai: What?
Rory: No music.
Lorelai: And the band stopped playing, too.
(Lane walks in through the back door)
Rory: Hi, Lane.
Lorelai: How's it going there?
(Lane walks to the sink, turns the faucet on, and sticks her head under the water.)
Rory: You think she can hear us?
Lorelai: I think out of self-defense her ears have become vestigial organs.
(the band are talking about new replacement, Gil)
Zach: Right here.
(points to his eyes)
Zach: he's got some lines. That blows my mind.
Brian: What is he, late thirties?
Zach: Approaching forty.
Lane: Forty?
Brian: He was alive before man walked on the moon.
Zach: Don't do that, man. You're freaking me out.
Lane: Let's not be over-dramatic, guys. I mean, he is an incredible guitarist.
Zach: He's had a lot of time to practice.
Brian: And the bicentennial - he was alive for that.
Lane: This is the best we've sounded since Dave, and he's really...
Zach: Elderly.
Lane: Excited.
Brian: He was our age when we were born.
Lane: He thinks we're great
Brian: There were no cd's when he was born.
Zach: Stop it, man. I mean it.
Lane: Maybe there's a way to offset his oldness. Put a hat on him. Dress him up like Angus Young in AC/DC - that schoolboy outfit.
Brian: He could have seen AC/DC with their original lead singer.
Zach: And 1980 is when that guy choked on his own vomit. That's old.
Lane: You want to stop the audition?
Brian: We shouldn't be rude.
Lane: Good.
Zach: Fine, we'll keep going, but remember, any new member has to be approved by all of us. So one vote against, and he's back at bingo.
Rory: That woman's staring at me.
Lorelai: Oh, Mrs. Van-uppity? Well, maybe you're just her type.
(Later, after town meeting is over)
Lorelai: Wait.
Rory: Why?
Lorelai: I want to see if she asks you out.
Lorelai: She was the most beautiful pink all over. She even smelled pink. That sounds weird. I can't describe it - that little, pink, baby smell. The first time her eyes focused on me and her little fingers reached out...I was someone new. She had me.
Sookie: Yours came out. How'd you get yours out?
Lorelai: I swallowed a map.
Sookie: Hey, you know, Bruce spent two years in China educating poor villagers on female issues.
Lorelai: Oh, I hear they got great Chinese food there.
Sookie: This is the position I'm going to be in for the baby. She wants me to get used to it.
Bruce: Less tearing this way.
Lorelai: Ohh, smack that image right out of my head.
Rory: Well, if they want an Anthea for "Portrait of a Young Girl Named Anthea," then they're going to have to have you for the Renoir girl.
Lorelai: Well, look at you folding your laundry all haughty and powerful.
Rory: Bada-bing all over his nice ivy-league suit.
Lorelai: Rory, you couldn't do that. Come on. It would be embarrassing, it would be manipulative, and can you do it tonight?
Lorelai: I just thought of the perfect painting for Luke to be in. "Cranky Guy in Baseball Cap."
Rory: Was that Manet or Monet?
Lorelai: That was mustard on my hamburger and a side of fries, please.
Rory: She's the queen of segues.
Luke: She's the queen of something.
Taylor: Would you like to say a few words, Mrs. Otis?
Mrs. Otis: Your enthusiasm...shocks me.
Lorelai: Is that good?
Rory: Hard to tell.
Lane: I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but I've already figured out that our Spin cover should be against a bloodred backdrop with a skull hovering over us.
Lorelai: Oh, well, very Norman Rockwell.
Jackson: Got a honey of a sheet. It's the top of the line. The little thing will come out and carom right down into the catcher's arms.
Lorelai: While we all yell, "Hey, batter, batter, batter?"
Kirk: Whoo-hoo!
Lorelai: What'd you get, Kirk?
Kirk: Christ in 'The Last Supper.'
Lorelai: The big kahuna!
Kirk: I'm gonna do it right, too. Lots of research. What's a good book to read?
Lorelai: Uh, the Bible?
Kirk: Right. Yo, where are my apostles? Where are my homeboys? James, son of Alpheus, give me five!
Taylor: 'The Last Supper' cannot be funky.
Lorelai: How's your research coming along, Kirk?
Kirk: Good, although I got off to a slow start. I didn't realize Jesus wasn't in the Old Testament 'til I hit page 368.
French episode title: "Le Festival Des Tableaux Vivants", meaning "The Festival Of Living Pictures".
Kelly Bishop (Emily), Edward Herrmann (Richard), Yanic Truesdale (Michel), Liza Weil (Paris), and Chris Eigeman (Jason) do not appear in this episode.
Alternate Episode Title: "Love Me or Louvre Me."
Sookie has Davey in this episode, but we don't see him.
This episode won an Emmy in 2004 for "Outstanding Makeup for a Series (Non-Prosthetic)."
Taylor: ... in France, our former ally"
Taylor is referring to how diplomatic relations deteriorated between France and the U.S. over the war in Iraq.
Just a few months before the episode was aired, France refused to join the Americans and the British in their military operation in Iraq.
Lorelai: I'm a Weeble, and Weebles wobble.
Lorelai is referring to the Hasbro's Playskool toy "Weebles". The popular catch phrase of the toy is "Weebles wobble, but they don't fall down."
Lane: We could dress him up like Angus Young in AC/DC, that school boy outfit.
Brian: He could have seen AC/DC with their original lead singer.
Zack: And 1980 is when that guy choked on his own vomit.
The lead singer of AC/DC, Angus Young, always wore a school boy outfit during concerts and CD covers. Bon Scott was found dead in a car after a night of heavy drinking. He died to to alcohol poisoning.
When Lorelai is freaking out about flinching Rori tells her to "think of England." This is a reference to the phrase "close your eyes and think of England". This phrase is believed to originate from the 1912 journal of Lady Hillingdon when speaking of having relations with her husband. It is commonly used as advice given to women when confronted with the inevitability of sexual intercourse, or encouragement to either sex about doing anything unpalatable.
Gil: I had another band..
Sebastian Bach, who plays Gil, was the lead singer of world famous heavy metal band Skid Row. He was fired from the band in 1997 due to obnoxious behaviour.
Taylor: "Oh well, whatever, nevermind."
This is a quote from the Nirvana song Smells Like Teen Spirit.
Lorelai: Well, look at you folding your laundry all haughty and powerful.
Rory: Bada-bing all over his nice ivy-league suit.
This is a reference to dialogue in The Godfather:
"...You gotta get up close like this... badaBING! you blow their brains all over your nice Ivy League suit. ...."
