Another Moz reference on Parks & Rec. Sam Elliot's character gave the advice "in the words of the great Moz, "Hold On To Your Friends." Morrissey? The Smiths? Meat is Murder, one of the greatest anti-meat industry songs?"

This Charming Ron: 'Parks and Recreation' Drops Morrissey, Smiths Knowledge - Spin
Excerpt:
If you watched the latest episode of NBC's Parks and Recreation, you (spoiler, obviously!) saw mustachioed guest star Sam Elliott — the cowboy-hatted stranger from The Big Lebowski, among many other roles — perched on the floor in a meditative position, saying, "It's like Moz once said: Hold on to your friends." At priceless looks of puzzlement from Amy Poehler's Leslie Knope and Nick Offerman's Ron Swanson, he continues: "Morrissey? The Smiths? You don't know 'Meat Is Murder'? One of the best songs ever written about industrialized beef consumption." Elsewhere in the episode, Elliott's character, who like Offerman's is named Ron, also quotes Cat Stevens: "If you want to be free, be free." Between this, the Morrissey autobiography, and the Peanuts-Smiths Tumblr staying alive, the more you ignore Moz — well, he's always making himself difficult to ignore, isn't he?
