"When You Wish Upon a Weinstein" is the twenty-second episode and season finale of the third season of Family Guy, and the 50th episode overall. Originally planned to air in 2000 as part of the second season, the episode suffered a temporary ban from television due to FOX network executives being concerned the episode could be construed as anti-Semitic. However, the episode was able to be released on the Family Guy: Volume 2 DVD box set on September 9, 2003 as a never-before-seen episode, before being able to air two months later on November 9th on Adult Swim, and finally being able to air on Fox on December 10, 2004.
