Family Guy season 4 episode 01

All in all, I’d say it’s an average episode though it had at least one classic quote:

Christians don’t believe in gravity

And the stints about High class british porn were hilarious.

As this episode doesn’t air for a while, please use spoiler boxes if you watched it.

How did you see it prior to May 1?

Does it stand up to previous seasons, from what you’ve seen?

Yeah, fess up… How did you see it?

There is a dvd screener of the first episode floating around (did I mention my email is public?) These are not too uncommon. I remember it happened with the first 4 episoes of The Sopranos’ last season and The Shield episodes 401/402 more recently.

As to how it compares to previous episodes, it’s average but not in a bad way. I have yet to dislike a single episode of family guy afterall.

The introduction to the episode is interesting (very mild spoiler ahead) They refer to the show’s cancellation.

I’m surprised more people haven’t watched it. I assumed it’d spread like wildfire. Well, this thread can always be revived in a week or so when the episode officially airs.

Nope. Nor did you mention that your mailbox was full!

oops, I forgot about that. I made some space now.

This, uh, this situation has just turned his whole life upside down face.

That bit in Tom Tucker’s house was brilliant.

“Effin’ cry” is back. I was a bit surprised by that.

I liked it. I got some good laughs out of this episode. I remember again why I love this show so much. It’s hard to get a good laugh out of the repeats when you’ve pretty much memorized them all.

I just watched it again and I can’t make out what the guy covered in slime says at the very end of the show. Right before he says : “I used to be a lawyer. Good to be back America”

“Dont let me get the best of you”

WTH was that guy anyway?

[spoiler]The scene went like this:

Meg: So you actually put coke in that kid’s locker?
Brian: Yup.
Meg: Wow. Where’d you get it?
Brian: Oh, I’ve got a guy.
Dirty Man in Underpants: Don’t let it get the best of you! I used to be a lawyer! See you next week. Good to be back, America!

“It” must refer to cocaine. Or at least that’s how I heard it.[/spoiler]

Reference to earlier episodes - the guy is the Greased-Up Deaf Guy who’s at Peter’s annual company picnic, and Brian was addicted to coke for two episodes.

I know this is not the pit, but still…

What the f**ing hell?

I just saw this, thanks to the same method all "mwerican Who fans must watch Doctor Who, and I loved it. However, the very first scene with all the canceled shows listed?
Kaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhn!

I mean really, shows take money to make, and the list of recently canceled shows is just staggering.

as soon as I heard and knowing is half the battle I knew that things were finally going to be back to normal, and my fears of the show not living up to its previous potential was just silliness on my part.
