Only problem was the way Lois acted to Peter at one scene. Other than that, an excellent episode. The kids after being licked by the toad was hilarious. Chris having fun with the tank was funny. It was interesting to see Peter dressed as Lando to stop the toad licking. I thought that the song was cool and it is way better than some of the songs in the later Family Guy episodes. Some other parts were funny/interesting as well. Overall, a superb episode of FG. 9/10moreless

    What I liked:
    - The Sea Monkeys
    -Peter's persona, Lando
    - The song
    -Wait till I tell your mother!......................who I'm looking forward to meeting.

  • Another classic!

    This is another one of my favorite episodes of Family Guy! Right from the beginning, it was hilarious, with comedy right from the beginning!

    I thought the concept of toad as a 'drug' was quite hilarious and extremely outrageous! I don't know how the producers come up with this kind of stuff, but it's amazing!

    I loved seeing Peter as a high school student, and one of my favorite scenes was when he performed the song about not 'doing toad'. I loved that performance!

    I mentioned that it was hilarious right from the first scene, but it was hilarious right up to the last scene as well, with the news report. I thought that was hilarious!

    A great episode, which I highly recommend to anyone. It is one of my favorites!moreless
