Family Guy-- It's Back!

[Homer]

Well, had to bump this up, but in review, the episode was one of the best I have seen... Read on if you like spoilers!

 

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The episode had numerous references to other canceled shows on FOX in the very beginning. Funny I remember a few of them though...

 

Anyways, Peter and Lois begin to lose their touch sexually and so they decided to go on a second honeymoon to Cape Cod. On their way, Peter totals their car and ends up staying at a run down hotel. In the room, Peter and Lois watch the news and see a hotel opening in Manhattan that's a ritzy hotel and mentions that Mel Gibson owns a room in the hotel.

 

Meanwhile, the kids and Brian are stuck at home. Brian (with the help of Stewie) look after Meg and Chris. Chris goes to his eighth grade dance and during the dance, he goes to the guys room with his friends and turns out the kid with the upside down face snuck Vodka from his father's liqour cabinet. Chris gets caught with the Vodka and gets in trouble (And GI JOE gives the kids a good lesson!).

 

Peter and Lois then decide to go to the hotel in Manhattan. Peter decided to fake himself successfully as Mel Gibson and gets his private suite. They still don't get their "spark" back and when leaving, Lois discovers a hidden room that had a copy of "Passion of the Christ II". (POTC II was basically Rush Hour, replace Jackie Chan with Jesus and you'll get it).

 

Back home, Chris is in trouble due to the upside down kids' peer pressure. Brian heads over to the kids' house and his parents don't believe their story. After being kicked out, Stewie suggests to hide drugs in the kids locker as a plan for revenge.

 

Meanwhile, Peter thought POTC II was a movie that should never be seen, so he steals it. Suddenly, two of Mel Gibson's friends spot Peter with the copy of POTC II and end up going through a wild goose chase across the country (Parodying Alfred Hitchcock's movie North By Northwest (Good film I might add, though its old)). In the end, Mel Gibson and them meet at Mount Rushmore and gives him the movie (with a dog turd inside instead of the film). In the end, Mel Gibson dies after falling down from Lincolns upper lip. After that, Lois and Peter finally get their "spark" back.

 

In the end, the kid with the upside down face gets caught with Cocaine and evens it out. And the funny ending, the dealer of the coke running in the house saying "Good to be back America!".

 

END SPOILER

 

Glad FOX revived this show, now if only they can cancel The Simpsons when they hit 400 episodes...

^ You know whats funny. I saw this episode a week before it came out. The episode managed to get leaked onto the internet and my roommate got the episode.

Family Guy is a hilarious series, but I think that Seth MacFarlane makes the episodes way too sacreligious. I mean the parts about God and Jesus aren't even funny anyway. The show would be a lot funnier without the added sacreligious scenes in them. Other than that Family Guy is my all-time favorite show!

Oh man, Family Guy was better than ever last night. I was laughing my ass off. I loved the beginning of the episode, when you see Peter as Jesus getting beaten and he's like "No, no, stop it....stop it"
