comment |
The theme song ("One step, two step, talk about a new step, it's The Murry Wilson Show") is a nod to the real Murry's one semi-hit as a songwriter, "Two Step, Side Step", a 1952 Dance Sensation song that was recorded by several artists, including Lawrence Welk. |

Politically Incorrect Villain: Murry refers to his son Brian as a "social retard". Joe Jackson's portrayal would probably be considered a meta example, today. |

comment |
Very Loosely Based on a True Story: Murry getting fired as the manager of The Beach Boys, then finding another band which he fashions into a Beach Boys soundalike, then ultimately launching his own unsuccessful career as a recording artist is a Played for Laughs version of what the real Murry actually did, when he became the manager of The Sunrays and released his own Instrumental album (The Many Moods of Murry Wilson). |

Catchphrase: Murry's is "I'm a genius too!" (which the Real Life Murry actually said to Brian Wilson in an argument during the recording sessions for "Help Me Rhonda", which unfortunately for him got captured on tape for posterity). |
