500 days of summer- main dude makes fun of main girl about favorite beatle:
"You like Ringo Starr? But nobody likes him!"
"That's why i like him!"
"God, Octopus's garden? piggies is a better song that that!"

This is awesome!! Makes me want to see this movie even more now!

Just watching CSI and in 45 minutes they've mentioned something Beatles related 3 times. The "Love" show, Here There And Everywhere, and Rocky Raccoon.

5 minutes later... Ebony and Ivory reference (the old autopsy doctor and Morpheus' character)

I was watching that show The nanny, and Fran, the nanny, go the lyrics to Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds wrong.

She said, "The girl with colitis goes by." Luckily, her boss, Mr. Sheffield, corrected her.

In the film Definitely Maybe the heroine April mentions John Lennon and Paul McCartney.

I remember hearing a Beatles reference in 30 Rock.

It was about Yoko Ono.
Liz Lemon is talking to Phoebe (jack's girlfriend for like one episode.)

Phoebe: You know how John Lennon was better than the rest of The Beatles until he met Yoko Ono? Well I’m Jack’s Yoko.
Liz: You want to be Yoko?
Phoebe: This is none of your business anyway. I’m marrying Jack. He’s everything I’ve ever wanted.
Liz: Oh, I bet he is.
Phoebe: You don’t know anything about me so back off.
Liz: What happened to your accent?
Phoebe: (pausing) I don’t know what you’re on about, you daft wanker.

made me laugh when i heard it!

Haha!^^

I heard this in either Law and Order or CSI. I can't remember.

But this woman was in a book store buying a poetry book:

Woman "I love poetry, it gives me this amazing feeling inside"
Clerk "Like the feeling my mother would get when she heard Paul McCartney perform Yesterday when she saw The Beatles in the 60's"
Woman "Yes, like that"

I WANNA BE THAT CLERKS MOTHER! End of story! hehe
And I don't think thats the word for word description, but its close enough.

i saw this macy's commercial where they're doing this fund called "come together"
the song was playing in the background, and at the end, some girl sings the words, 'come together'
--
then in 'everybody hates chris'
when the dad is teaching his daughter techniques in checkers..
"first, you gotta give an easy target, then you ambush right after"
(narrorator):sounds just like paul mccartney's life! (heather mills reference, too)

Today's episode of Simpson's had Another Day at the beginning

Well, this is a movie, but in X-Men Origins: Wolverine his girlfriend was telling him the story of a god named kuwaykuwatsu (if thats the right spelling) and when she was done wolverine said "Koo Koo Ca Chu Got screwed" so that could have been an I am The Walrus refrence. Then on The Mentalist this guy said to Jane "I don't know you from the back of my hand!" and then Jane said "Who's my favorite Beatle?" lol

those three are all videos of references to the beatles in simpsons episodes, they show a series of clips and stuff

also in the movie 'Whip It', there's a championship team called 'holy rollers', reference to the song 'come together'
