Continuity mistake: In the Italy scene after the visit to the Traveler's Cheque center, the Griswold's decide to go shopping with the $3000 they received. Rusty proclaims "Yeah Dad, we've been in these clothes a long time, I feel rank." Shortly after walking out of the store wearing their new clothes it changes to the scene right before they see Ellen on the billboard, and they are back in their old rank clothes.

2.5/10. Slightly better than Christmas Vacation. It's sort of amusing how they poke fun at some countries while simultaneously not doing wonders for our image. It's just the same as before only now they're doing it over in the likes of England, Italy, and France.

Question: What was up with the kissing of Kent Winkdale (the host) in the game show "Pig in a poke"?
Answer: Kent was a parody of Richard Dawson and other classic game show hosts; Richard Dawson was well known (and somewhat notorious) for kissing all female contestants when he hosted "Family Feud" in the 1970s and 1980s.
