TRIVIA

Due to a controversy over it's subject matter, this episode never aired on FOX. It was included in the Season 3 DVD box and in 2003 began showing in syndication.
The episode eventually did air on Fox, but with the following change: in the song "I Need a Jew," Peter says, referring to Jews, "I know they didn't kill my lord," instead of the original line, "Even though they killed my lord."
The title is based on the song "When You Wish Upon a Star" from the 1940 Walt Disney movie Pinocchio (1940).
Glen Quagmire drives a '57 Chevy Bel Air convertible.
