Good, so I'm not the only one that laughed when Brian got mauled by a tiger.

Every episode should have Brian being messed up by various wildlife.  The tiger's appearance was the best part.

I liked how Stewie was consistently derisive of Brian's writing and the "tech support" line. So insufferable. 

The gags about the tapeworm and Jeb Bush's wife really had me laughing.

Anyone else catch that Brian and Stewie were in the screened in side porch in one scene. I always wonder why we never see a scene in there. It's just the mysterious, unutilized part of the house we always see from the outside.

I like episodes that remind us that Stewie is still a baby and Brian is a dog.

And hey, Olivia is back. Didn't we kill you off? (death hasn't stopped anyone from coming back, though) And hey, Vinny came back, too!

Mort's voice coming out of the horse gimp was both hilarious and horrifying.

"Why don't you jerk the rest of the day off?" Line of the episode right there.

Unfortunate coincidence with the opening Willy Wonka gag just a few weeks after Gene Wilder's death. Since it actually started off Stewie and Brian's plot I guess they couldn't switch it for another one. Some people online actually think they made the joke after Wilder died. It's not South Park! Family Guy episodes are written months before they air!

I thought Olivia died in the house fire Stewie set. I guess this was Olivia's revenge by kicking Stewie out of the group and making his success her own. She looks different like she had botox in the lips or something.

It was nice seeing Vinnie again who I prefer over Brian any day of the week.

I didn't find the Willy Wonka joke as offensive since it was done before Gene Wilder's passing.

Brian and Lois decide it’s time for Chris to work out his anger management issues by taking up a sport. Chris surprises everyone and becomes a star baseball pitcher, which turns Peter into a gambling father, as he bets on his son’s baseball games. Meanwhile, Stewie, Brian and Frank Sinatra Jr. attempt to open an Italian restaurant.

I only watched this episode for Frank Jr. The dedication at the beginning was nice, as was the restaurant song.

If only he was still alive in Palm Springs, ready for whenever Stewie and Brian teamed up with him next.

LOL at Chris "accidentally" breaking Quagmire's arm.

The last one with Frank Sinatra Jr. At least they got one more episode out of him. 

Half of my family is Italian, all the Italian jokes were accurate. 

Didn't care all that much about Chris's plot, though besides Joe thinking teens dress like the characters in Archie comics. And when Quagmire got his arm broken. That was totally karma right there.

"Wait a minute, teenagers don't have wheelchairs!" Line of the night right there.

Loved Joe's reference to Archie Comics because I read the hell out of those comics during my childhood. Still do from time to time lol.

The Griffin Family as a whole shouldn't open up any more businesses because they all fail miserably with the restaurant that Peter discriminated against handicapped people, the cookie store, and now the Italian restaurant.

I do like that they're making Lois more caring this season because last season she was awful when it came to her kids. This week and last week so much improvement.

After the local airline pilots go on strike, Quagmire looks for new work and becomes a gigolo. When his clients begin to avoid paying for his services, he asks Peter for help getting his money. Meanwhile, Brian is kicked off Peter’s health insurance, so he gets a job at a hardware store, until Stewie gets him fired and things get medical.

Family Guy takes viewers behind the scenes of a regular production week, with James Woods as the guide. See the ins-and-outs of what goes into the making of an episode and watch the drama unfold as Peter is replaced and ends up in the office of Fox Television Group Chairmen and CEOs Dana Walden and Gary Newman to pitch his very own new series.

So...quite a timely reference to the Trump tape with Peter as Billy Bush. It makes you wonder what was in that spot before that was spliced in.

Was not a fan of Brian letting the girl in the car go. That could've been a single mom for all he knew! Dumbass. I do appreciate that Peter had an insurance policy that covered dogs until now. Was not a fan of his plot at all (especially when it got gross), and I only liked Quagmire's plot where Peter was wearing the pimp outfit. I find pimp outfits funny.

I've got nobody to blame but myself for watching this. I got curious because of the "surprise" in the episode Seth tweeted about, and sure enough it was a Drumpf reference. And of course they could shoehorn it in since it was all audio.

Everything else was awful. I hate Brian so much. I usually don't abide animal cruelty but I enjoyed watching his hernia rupturing more than I should have.

Brian just needs to die. He's just too much of a damn douche, moreso than usual. IDK what his problem was this episode. Was he trying to get fired on purpose because he didn't want to work? I think Stewie needs to bring out the baseball bat again. Him letting that car go after the woman said she needed to unstrap her baby from the car seat was just low.

Quagmire as a Gigolo and Peter the pimp just really didn't do it for me. Maybe if it was along the lines of Deuce Bigalow Male Gigolo it might be a little better storyline wise.

I don't think Brian was trying to get fired. He's just that conceited.

I liked Quagmire, male gigolo, but it dragged on for too long in the wrong direction when Peter became a pimp and they appeared on that fake documentary.

Link to comment

I feel like Peter as a pimp has been done before so this episode felt like a retread to me. Of course, I could be wrong. The Brian subplot went no where and ended oddly. And I know this isn't real world, but I doubt his insurance would end the day he got fired.  Did like the COBRA joke. Shit is expensive.

IDK why Brian is being conceited when he hasn't learned from Stewie when Stewie asked him, "Why does everything you touch turn to garbage?" Couldn't make it in Hollywood as a writer, wrote that terrible book "Wish It, Want It, Do It" & "Faster than the Speed of Love", failed businesses, failed relationships, horrible father to Dylan, failed marathon runner, and the list goes on.

Taylor Swift agrees to go to a homecoming dance with Chris after he asks her via online video. However, when she starts to fall for him, her music takes a hit. Meanwhile, Peter decides to try a new profession and sees firsthand what it's like to be an Uber driver.

In order to "save" Stewie from autism, Peter and Lois decide not to vaccinate him and then proceed to convince the rest of Quahog to follow suit. Stewie runs away to save himself from diseases until Sean Penn swoops in to save the day and brings vaccines to the whole town.

Behind The Laughter: Family Guy Edition was interesting, to say the least. Really loved seeing all the callbacks on all the walls. I caught the Petoria flag, the "Die Lois Die" needlepoint, and Gary The No Trash Cougar costume.

Of course Peter is a giant asshole behind the scenes. And that Brian was only killed off so he could film a movie. Of course. I feel like they're really rehashing this, especially by bringing in David Spade to replace him, a la Eight Simple Rules. The fact that thishappens EVERY week was both not surprising, but a bit irritating, too. That montage of Peter getting hit in the crotch with nickels was a great comeuppance, though.

I love that the Petercopter was used by Seal Team Six, and Adam West FINALLY showing up as Batman.

It's been a while since we've seen Greased up Deaf Guy. And the Kool-Aid Man.

It's no Football In The Groin, but I laughed a lot at this gag. Of course, I thought the banging the knee gag was hilarious too.
