A question
Edit
How do we know that Biff's middle name is Howard? Is it possible that he's actually named Howard Tannen, and that Biff is his nickname? Just curious. McFord 19:17, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
JT270 01:07, December 29, 2010 (UTC)Biff's Son
Edit
Don't know how to add this info without a URL to reference from, but there is evidence to suggest Biff has more than one son. In episode 1 of the BTTF video game, when Marty asks Old Edna about her binoculars, she is heard shouting into her megaphone: "Jeff Tannen! Get away from that hubcap before I call your father!".

- If you watch with subtitles, she says "Tiff Tannen"--Gibbeynator 03:11, December 29, 2010 (UTC)
Clockwork Orange Reference
Edit
In Episode 3: Citizen Brown, this Citizen Plus program sounds similar to the Ludovico technique in A Clockwork Orange, both have similar results, making the subject feel some kind of pain, if they even think of performing certain actions (Violence and Rape in A Clockwork Orange, Criminal acts in general with the this episode).

I imagine the Citizrn Brown era takes elements from a few pop culture dystopian scenarios. "Citizen Plus" and the constant surveillance sounds like something out of "1984". And while I admit this is a stretch, the weiner samples being a revolting "meat substitute" is faintly reminiscent of "Soylent Green".Doug Exeter 17:05, April 5, 2011 (UTC)
