Episode Title Puns - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

Some of those titles are references to famous movie lines. "Phone Home" has proven to be one of the most memorable utterences of the titular character from ET: the Extra Terrestrial (Steven Speilberg, 1982), while "Frankie My Dear" owes to the first clause of Rhett Buttler's notorious departing statement "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn" from Gone With the Wind (Victor Fleming, 1939). "Parting is such a sweet sorrow", of course, is a Shakespearian phrase (Romeo and Juliet, FYI).

I always assumed that "Schlock Star" was a simple play on "Rock Star" myself, but I could be wrong.
