In addition to that one, there were two other rather subtle allusions...

1) Near the beginnning of the show, I forget the exact dialogue but it
was somewhere around the time when Maddie was telling Dave to get his 
hands off her behind, Dave mentions something about having to keep it 
clean or they'll have to go to cable.  

2) After Maddie has been called to the police station (the first time)
and she's on her way out the door, Dave is pestering her with several
off the wall comments.  She ignores him, as usual, and he says some-
thing like "Give me a break, I'm running out of material."

I don't recall the specifics of either of these, but someone with a VCR
can easily check me on them.  All in all, a very amusing line of humor.
