The 2,000-Year-Old Virgin

Peter is stunned to run into Jesus at the mall, and even more stunned to discover that he is still a virgin, so Peter recruits Quagmire and Cleveland to celebrate Jesus' birthday by finding a way to end his celibacy.

I just got home and saw the description for this "Family Guy" episode, which I had recording. I don't think I've ever actually decided to cancel a first run of any TV episode, but here we are.

Stewie, Chris, & Brian's Excellent Adventure

To help Chris ace his ninth grade history class, Stewie and Brian employ the time machine for educational purposes. Not surprisingly, all three get stuck in the past.

Stewie and Brian time travel episodes are usually decent, and a Bill and Ted riff has potential. Should be fun.

Our Idiot Brian

Meg convinces Brian to take the SAT's for her, but when he tests poorly, they start to suspect that Brian might not that smart after all. Peter decides to spend the day showing Brian the joys of being stupid and the benefits of having a low IQ.

This sounds a lot like the Simpsons episode where Homer had the crayon removed from his brain.

The part where Meg is coaching the Mighty Ducks, it turns into a not very funny menstruation joke, then it points to this and the fact that guys probably will like the joke a lot more than their girlfriends. It was maybe 5 minutes in?

This episode is sucking now. I don't like the character turn that Brian's made over the past six or so years. He used to be Peter's urbane best friend who was also able to be low-brow with him on occasion. Now he's just a douche.

e: Ahahaha, Seth McFarlane is trying to explain that doucheyness away with a brain tumor, but the reality is he doesn't realize how bad Brian has been for a while now.

e2: Okay, Brian being unhappy with Stewie at the end was pretty funny. So was the space dog thing. Still, lovely episode.

"There's not even any defense for statutory rape, when the world says you're guilty you're guilty"

That may have worked better if he didn't actually gently caress an underaged girl, and didn't come from a character who 90% of his jokes are about being an actual rapist.
