This is something that I find very funny, when it's done on TV shows. NCIS has a bad habit of including "in-jokes", such as Michael Weatherly's character telling another "I'd have a better chance of hooking up with Jessica Alba" or him describing David McCallum's character as looking like an older version of Illya Kuryakin. They also had Mark Harmon's character discussing the Modus Operandi of Ted Bundy.
That said, I've tried to read the fantasy books, I just can't get into them. Honestly, I don't even care for Star Trek novels.

I mean, Archie Bunker couldn't be expected to watch "All In The Family" on Tuesday nights, now could he? ;>) Mark L.
