    Lois fulfills a lifelong dream of being a model. Stewie starts on a multi-level marketing company. Brian in need of cash to buy his de-worming medication agrees to become his salesman.

    I liked Stewie's plot more than Lois' plot, which was kind of boring.

    6.5/10

    I thought this was a great episode for the most part. Both of the plots were pretty good, although I thought Brian and Stewie's was a little more interesting. There were some pretty funny parts throughout the episode like the Four Peters, Stewie talking to Grover on the phone, Rhode Island flipping a coin, and Cookie Monster. I also thought the very end was hilarious. However, this episode was sort of boring and kind of dragged at parts, especially in the middle. Overall, though, I still thought this was a pretty good episode for the most part. For my final grade, I'll give it a B. Marebear2009, out!moreless

    Okay, so we all know that Lois is super annoying and unlikable, and her storyline here was brutal, but that does not mean this was not a good episode. This episode is on literally every week on TV, and yet I still find myself watching whenever it does come on.

    For once the cutaway scenes were actually welcome here and not as obtrusive and annoying as they usually are. The cookie monster scene was an instant classic. Plus, Carter Pewterschmidt? Come on, it does not get any better than that, one of the most underrated characters on Family Guy these days.moreless

    This is one of my least favourite episodes, the reason, simply the story was great, but it could've been pulled off a million times better and I rarely and I mean rarely laughed at the jokes in this episode they were just unfunny, this is deffinately a filler episode, I mean "You Kent Always Say What You Want" from the simpsons was better than this.

    When i first heard about this episode I was excited I thought it would be really good, but after watching it on TV and then again on DVD, because I thought I was dreaming it was so bad, I hated it. Lois being aneriesic was just horrifying not EXTREMELY horrifying, I would've made her look like frankenstein.

    The only thing that came out of this episode is from the first and 2nd acts Lois looks hot, thankyou for reading my opinionated review.moreless

    Lois gets into modeling - she wanted to as a teen but her father would not let her - and it all goes too far for Peter's taste. Lois becomes the talk of the male half of the town (for the second time in the Family Guy series since season one's "Mind Over Murder") with every guy slobbering all over her and she even starts to loose weight. Peter enlists the help of Lois' father, Carter, and the two of them try to stop her. The B-story is just as funny: Brian has worms and, needing money for the worm medication, agrees to help Stewie with his pyramid scheme - the two of them engaging in bizarre office politics. But the hilarity does not even end there as the episode includes the so-funny-it-hurts "The Four Peters" scene snippet and a hilarious reoccurring gag involving Cookie Monster's addiction to cookies. "Model Misbehavior" is a Family Guy hit.moreless

  • Trivia

    ADD TRIVIA
    • Lois's eye shadow disappears and reappears in some scenes. Edit
    • The cutaway involving Meg having her first period and the neighbors complaining brings up continuity questions. A woman can normally get her first period by the age of 12 or 13, but there have been some incidents of women having problems causing them not to have periods until a later time. If that was true for Meg, then Joe shouldn't have been there because he didn't move into the neighborhood until the episode 'A Hero Sits Next Door', and Meg was around 15 at the time. And since Meg was mentioned to be 16 in the season 2 episode 'Love Thy Trophy', and later turned 17 in the season 5 episode 'Peter's Two Dads', this can only mean Meg didn't have her first period until she was 16.

    • The license plate on the limo Peter and Mr. Pewterschmidt use to kidnap Lois from the party says HOTBITCHES. Edit
