This last one. Peter was drafted to the New York Patriots. Stewie beats the living **** out of Brian over an over-due bet. TWICE.

Fix'd.
The only part I liked was the "Shapoopi" dance number, but I still couldn't help but feel sorry for the 97% of the people watching the show who would have no idea what the song was from (The Music Man), since it went on so damn long.

I was one of the few who actually liked that episode. Yes, the Brian and Stewie thing was run for too long, but I kind of expected that, since Family Guy's jokes tend to run on for too long (Ball in the Cup gag had GREAT potential, but it went on for too long, and the jingle at the end really destroyed it). The only running gag I thought was actually funny was the one in "Wasted Talent" where Peter slips and yelps in pain. Anyway, I liked the Shipoopi (yes, that's how it was spelled) because I saw, and liked, The Music Man. Many of the jokes on FG aren't gotten by the masses. Only a few people can get most references (I am one of them).

Anyways, my least favorite episode was "Courtship of Stewie's Father." I hated the ENTIRE subplot with Herbert. I also hate the constant bringing back of gags from old episodes. Seriously, Seth. Get some NEW ones. You're a genius, stop pulling crap together for fast $$$. I love Family Guy, and I don't want to see it become another Simpsons.

And my least favorite moment? Meg's Rainbow song, heh. -CSM.

I thought the Shipoopi number was freaking hilarious, and at the end--

"Yeah...I scored a touchdown."

But I agree, it wasn't as hilariously funny as usual.

It wasn't one of the best, but it wasn't the worst ever either.

I did not get the reference of the song, but I still liked it, especially because it went on for so long, and everybody joined in at the end.

Some other jokes I liked:
- "I'm a homo" on the parachute
- "Sunday is my internet porn night" "you're my Chinese Lois"

Wink

Looks like I'm also one of the 3% who got the Shipoopi gag. XP

I actually found it pretty lame. I always find Family Guy to be hit-or-miss though. It's great or it sucks, very little middle ground.

I thought this episode was funny enough. I did agree that it's funnier if you've seen the Music Man. I don't know what I think is the worst episode, but my current favorite moment (I have favorite moments, this show is so full of non sequitors that it doesn't really matter what episode it's in) is when Peter starts the support group for fat men. That meeting they have has to be the best audio joke I've ever heard on TV.

Liked the episode, had me rollin' for the full 30 minutes. Two of the most memorable moments to me:
1. The Osama Bin Laden and the "Death to America" video
2. Peter slippin and falling and going "Aaah" for a whole minute

Ehm, those were not in the Patriot episode. In fact, those were not even in the same episode. The Osama Bin Laden bit (I loved that too) was in PTV, and the falling and hurting his knee bit was in Wasted Talent.

I haven't seen a brand-new Family Guy in years.

My favourite Family Guy moment is in 'Screwed the Pooch', when Peter makes a macaroni picture of himself and his father-in-law as a peace offering, and then imagines his father-in-law stomping it into smithereens while Peter wails. I'm laughing just thinking about it.

Well, the way you phrased it it seemed like you were talking about this episode.
