Why did Seth McFarlane name this Family Guy episode this?!
Question: Why did Seth McFarlane call the Star Wars-themed episode of Family Guy "Blue Harvest"? I can't come up with a reason why.
I figure its something simple, but I can't think of anything.

The name "Blue Harvest" is a reference to the title of the film ruse used to ensure secrecy and disguise the actual 1981 - 1983 production of Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi.
thats actually pretty complicated, i didnt even know until a few days ago, see in the real star wars movie, Return of the Jedi, the producers didnt really want people to know that the final star wars movie was being made, so they called it Blue Harvest temporarily (because it means nothing to people and evokes no emotions) people figured out by the first day of shooting that it was the star wars movie, because Mark Hamill, Carrie fisher, and Harrison Ford showed up on set. soo the family guy episode was named after this original misnomer to get the whole story, i found this out on the star wars documentary from the special features dvd in the original trilogy remastered edition dvd box set
hope i helped
