Family Guy

Hasn't this episode been done before? In fact it has, but this is the "new" version for "Family Guy." As the show stretches onto it's 9th season, and ratings begin to wane, the writers have fallen into a block.

They take two characters from their show, and set them up to be even lower on the respect totem pole (granted Brian was never high up to begin with). Brian once again falls in love, fails and Quagmire reluctantly helps out Brian. Brian eventually falters and they begin to be at each others throats. Two grown adults go at it as they try to make the other more jealous of who they date. Brian brings in Quagmire's one true love, and he falls and does the same to Brian. All it turns into is a pity fest at the end as both characters realize what they did was wrong, and make up at the end. It was a real shallow episode that had no real depth to it. It played on the hatred Quagmire has for Brian, but went no deeper then that, as we learn that Brian is more cruel then Quags.

Animation is the norm to family guy, uninspired but clean, and the episode does a decent job at holding your attention for at least ten minutes watching Peter run about doing his usual mindless antics. Not a real memorable episode for the show, but then again, most are not.

When the local dry cleaner loses Peter's favorite white shirt, he flips out. Meanwhile, Brian tries to score on a date with a new friend, Denise, but fails. Instead of quitting, he decides to enlist Quagmire's help. However, things get nasty when they start to compete for the affections of each other's old flames, Cheryl Tiegs and Jillian.

1/10

I thought this episode was great. It would have a superb score, but some scenes lower my score. Peter explaining to the audience about his shirt was a waste of time. Idisparatelywanted to end it. Really? After the previous' episode lazy scene with Carter moving the vehicle (don't know what it called) we just have two uneed long scenes in this episode. The scene where those dudes were lighting up the candles at a mountain...*sulks* was also a waste of time. And then Quagmire. I miss his old self when he didn't hate Brian but doing a plot with him and Brian wasabsolutelya bad idea. Really??! I predicted that he bash Brian in this episode. :/ I wish he's stop being a jerk towards Brian. I just hate Quagmire's new behavior especially the way he treats Brian. The ending wasn't even funny. Quagmire would have stopped hating Brian but eventually he knocks him off. What a big jerk he was in this episode! :/ However, I still think Quagmire funny but not near Brian. Anyway, let's get on the positive stuffs. The Street Fighters scene was hilarious. Meg and Mayor West dating was funny and it was areferenceto Deep Throats. It was kinda random though. Overall, I thought the episode was great, but not the best season 9. It would been beter if Quagmire didn't treat Brian like a d**** but he seriously took it too far.

Personally, I love to see Quagmire and Brian in the same episode. It's always funny in every way, even though there is no obvious conversational jokes. Moreover, this week's episode started with Peter. He only has 1 white shirt left and it's getting smelly, and he just freaks out when he sees that the dry cleaner lost his other white shirt. He even breaks into his house and finds a white shirt, but it's way to small, and that moment comes the guy with shotgun. Next thing we see, Brian coming to the police station to bail out Peter. The show actually starts at this point. I don't want to spoil the rest for the ones who haven't watched this episode yet.



All in all, almost a 10.

Brian has been dumped by a woman he met at prison while picking up Peter who tried to get his shirt back from a dry cleaner who didn't give back his shirt. He was dumped again as ususal. He takes a class in how to pick up women which is being taught by Quagmire. Being dress up in flashy clothes and acting like a jerk didn't work for him as he tried to get Denise back. Quagmire tells him about Cheryl Tiegs and how he lost her. Brian got her by making Quagmire jealous. At dinner, Quagmire brings Jillian with him for revenge. Brian and Quagmire fight but the women left them. Brian was really pathetic in this one. What ever happened to the Brian who was intelligent and goes for inner beauty and brains. Now he is a pathetic douche who only goes for outer beauty. Why can't he goes back to dogs? He so natural when he was with Seabreeze but I wished that Seabreeze had talked. It wouldn't kill you Seth to give him a female talking dog. Brian should just stay single and stop being so desparate for sex. Going after Cheryl Tiegs was very low for him. The subplot was stupid and was never resolved. Peter was a bigger jerk. The only funny scenes were the street fighter scene Quagmire hitting Brian with his car. Brian deserved it. I also liked Adam West coming in with Meg. Adam West was the only one who suceeded and good for Meg. Time for Brian to leave and never come back so we don't have to put up with him anymore.

Overall, I thought this was a great episode. It's one of the few episodes where each plot took up half the episode, which was very interesting to me, and it had a pretty good share of funny moments. I thought Pater fighting with Mr. Washee Washee was hilarious, and Jillian's appearance was also very funny. Meg showing up at the restaurant that Brian and Quagmire were at was funny, too, and I liked how Brian tried to hit on that fat girl in the bar and how he flipped off Quagmire in the car. The only parts I didn't like were the joke about Michael J. Fox and the ending. Still, my final grade for this episode is a B. Marebear2009, out!



~dedicated to tigerdude22~

So the episode starts with Peter going to the dry cleaners to pick up his other shirty, but mr. Washeewashee tells him he doesn't have it, so the war is on. Then Lois invites him to dinner 4 Peter to apologize but the feud continues. PEter breaks in to his house to get it, and they have a fight, Street Fighter II style. Brian goes pick up Peter form the PD and meets a girl.



To make sure he doesn't lose her, he takes Quagmire's dating class. But ya know, he hates him. Then following his advice, loses her, cause the class is 4 one night stands. To get revenge, Brian dates Cheryl Tiegs, Quagmire's soulmate. Quagmire then dates Jillian, and on a double date, they fight and lose the girls. Then they seem to become firends, but then Glenn rear ends Brian with his car.



Overall: It was a nice episode. I likes A LOT more Peter's shirt plot. I love Jillian, and her scene was golden (Yay I helped!). Also awesome were Negatron & the black woman in hidsight. 9.5/10.

Sorry fans, but this episode was just super boring for me. In it, Brian wants to get with a girl he likes, so he attends a class taught by Quagmire to get sex from women. However, the lessons do not work for the girl he wants, and when Brian hears about Quagmire and Cheryl Tiegs, he ends up dating her, to spite Quagmire. What will Quagmire do for his revenge?



I laughed like twice throughout this episode, but for the most part, I was really bored. The "you all look the same line" and Jillian appearing. The ending made me hate Quagmire. I was never the biggest fan of him or anything, but driving away, and then HITTING Brian? Yea, Quagmire's a jerk, and I did not personally find that the least bit funny. Grade- D or so. Worst of the season in my opinion

I thought that this was a perfect episode of "Family Guy" in my opinion. This episode had two different plots which I love. The first plot was in the first 15 minutes of the episode and that was when Peter was fighting over his shirt being lost with the dry cleaner guy. The second plot was in the last 15 minutes of the episode and that was when Brian takes Quagmire's class and then Brian takes Quagmire's old flame and then Quagmire takes Brian's old flame as well. Two different seperate plots that I found very hilarious. I don't know which one I like more, I thought that they were both hilarious. It was funny when Peter would keep messing with the beep thing at the entrance of the dry cleaners. It was hilarious when Peter and the dry cleaner guy would argue with each other. It was also hilarious when Peter sneaked in the dry cleaner guy's house and found a white shirt but when Peter tried it on... it wasn't his white shirt. I also thought the Negatron cutaway was hilarious. Now to the second plot, I thought it was funny when Brian and Quagmire kept arguing with each other especially when the two of them were at their double dates with their old flames. I thought it was hilarious when Brian flipped off Quagmire but of course the blur blocked Brian's middle finger because this is a TV-14 cartoon. The ending was kind of ruined though because I was really hoping that Brian and Quagmire would be friends but I actually predicted that Quagmire would drive off and then hit Brian with his car at the end of the episode though. Overall, even though the ending kind of ruined this episode, this was a hilarious episode of "Family Guy" and two seperate plots were a brilliant idea. Keep it up Seth MacFarlane, it's never too late to give Family Guy's charm back. 10/10

A funny and well written episode this week. Although I dont know why they had two completely different stories that ended half way through. Normally if you have an"A" storyline (Quagmyre and Brian) and a "B" storyline (Peter and Chinese Laundry guy) you mix the footage together so both plots end with the end of the episode. This one, for some reason..the "B" story ends almost halfway into the episode and the rest of the episode is the "A" story....Let's forget this strange episode juxtaspostion and I will comment on both storylines.



Ah..a nice racist Peter adventure with Mr "Washee-Washee"(lol) as he calls him. Very funny and very racist. I liked the fight at the end. Only one question...what DID happen to Peters White shirt?

The Michael J Fox opening joke was, or course in poor taste....



The second story--Quagmyre's Pick Up Class was very funny. Brain is such an idiot at times. Quagmyre made it clear this was to "get laid" and Brian iused the technique to try and get a "girlfriend' swith disastrous results. The ending was appropriate and very funny when Quagmyre drove off after hitting Brian in reverse LOL..Finally a funny episode. I took off 1.6 points for NO STEWIE again and for bad Michael J Fox joke.

Tiegs for Two is another one of those Family Guy episodes that is really two different plots. The first is Peter fighting with the owner of a dry cleaners. The second is Brian and Quagmire struggling with their love lives.



The second was actually good though. The feud between Quagmire and Brian introduced last year was one of the better things during the AC (After Cancelation) era of Family Guy. Some humorous exchanges between the two, but of course they had to resort to the usual fight scene on this program.



What I did not like was the first half of the episode though. Racist jargon spitted by the dry cleaner and Peter to him, mocking Michael J. Fox (who has been stealing the show lately on The Good Wife) for no reason and just an all around bad plot there. The Street Fighter style fight between the two was kind of funny, but that was an embarrassing 15 minutes for me as a Fam Guy fan.

Peter goes into a dry cleaning store and get into a fight wiht the aisan guy because he lost peters favorite shirt. I liked the end of their plot where they were paradying mortal combat and when peter snuck into his house and tryed on the shirt and didnt fit him well. After that Brian gets a girl and thinks he has a chance with her. I like when he called her for a date and Stewie is like o boy. Of course he blew it with that girl like all the other ones he had. Great epsiode 9/10 A-
