Peter's plot was funny, Xbox 360 won the kids over, which was funny as it describes perfectly every little kid ever.

8/10

superb

What I liked- Peter revealing the kids bore him and he hates being around them, Peter asking Meg if she was on her period, wanting to snort coke with Chris (and then later on Brian finding the coke), the end of the world being an April Fool's Joke, everyone at the end being mad because Peter sucks at the game, Adam West kicking the stars to form Orion, Quagmire having sex with Bonnie because he said he was a virgin, amongst other things.

Pretty good. Had some really funny moments and a nice plot. The beginning with Peter trying to get out of jury duty was kind of boring, but the rest of the episode was pretty nice, so overall my final grade for this episode is going to be a B or so, I think is fair for this.moreless

Great episode but it could have been better

8.0

By tigerdude22, Jun 03, 2011

I thought that this was a great episode of "Family Guy". This wasn't my favorite episode but I did like it was pretty decent. The cutaway with the Oscars was hilarious. The Surfin' Bird gag was hilarious even though that gag annoyed me in "I Dream of Jesus" when Peter just sang it non-stop. As long as he doesn't sing it non-stop like "I Dream of Jesus" then it is very funny. Quagmire asking if he can have sex with Bonnie because Quagmire was a virgin was hilarious especially because Quagmire wasn't a virgin after all just wanted to have sex with Bonnie. Mayor West flying to space with a jetpack and then kicks the stars which says Orion was hilarious. Peter winning Meg, Chris, and Stewie's love by buying an Xbox 360 was hilarious. Peter playing the video game "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2" at the end of the episode was hilarious.MY score was just little low because I just hated how the end of the world was just an April Fools' joke. I thought it was mean and cold of Peter to say that he was bored with his kids. Come on, a father should always love his kids and should never be bored with them. Peter taking out his eyeball was also disgusting. Overall, this was a great episode but it could have been better. 8/10moreless

Awesome episode, once again!

9.5

By marebear2009, Apr 29, 2011

I thought this was a great episode, and one of the best of season 8 I've seen. There were many parts I thought were funny, like the cutaway at the Oscars, Peter talking about hating ants, and the Surfin' Bird gag. I also thought the crystal meth joke was hilarious, and I liked the ending with Peter playing the video game. The only thing I didn't like was the twist in the plot that the world ending was just an April Fool's joke. Peter tearing his eye out also did disgust me a little, but it is Family Guy so it didn't bother me too much. This was still a great episode in my opinion. Final grade: A. Marebear2009, out!moreless

this episode has some thing to do with the world ending man I hate how they say that the world is going to end some times it's BS and in this episode Peter has jury duty which he thiks it is an exclusive life experience but everybody does it and then the news people tell everyone that the world is going to be suck up by a black hole and then thoes SOBs tell then its was a April fools joke and the it was funny that Peter got an X-box 360 but he only uses it for himself and I think he was playing Call of Duty gamemoreless
