List of cultural / historical references.

Most episodes include a cultural or historical reference which anchor that episode in time, often quite precisely such as Bob Dylan, Beatles concerts, deaths of notable Americans. (A weakness in the scriptwriting for me was the generally shallow treatment of these events and the lack of follow-up.) A list of these references would be interesting.

This would seem to be original research, unless there is a sourced mention of a particular cultural reference that was consciously selected ty "anchor" an episode. (Edited to add: I guess I could see a list of historical events/figures referenced in an episode, just as matter of reference. I'd just be careful to attribute to much meaning to it without a source) --ZimZalaBim ^talk 22:10, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
