An [[Actor Allusion]] is a joke or reference which is specific to one of the actors in a show. It can be a little blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment, such as Mary Albright (Jane Curtin) spotting some people in [[Saturday Night Live|Conehead]] costumes at a sci-fi convention in ''[[3rd Rock from the Sun]]'', or it can be bigger and more blatant, such as when John Lithgow repeated his entire anti-music rant from ''[[Footloose]]'' in the same show.
