Title: 1/3/2010 Family Guy
Post by: tpirfan28 on January 03, 2010, 04:38:23 PM
While poking around in my TV guide, tonight's Family Guy has the description of "Peter gets amnesia after hitting his head on the set of Family Feud during a scuffle with the host, and he must relearn everything, including sex. Dwayne The Rock Johnson has a voice cameo as himself."

Seth has made many a game show reference in his shows that have been decent (namely playing Pyramid during a citizenship exam)...hopefully this will be good as well.

Let us not forget the time Peter was the grabby host of Family Feud circa Dawson's run.

...or when Peter went on Wheel of Fortune and Seth took it back to the shopping days....complete with Changing Keys theme.

Anyways, the whole first 10 minutes was the Griffins appearing on Dawson's Family Feud, and there were a few laugh-worthy moments, especially in Fast Money. As far as authenticity, they got the intro/set/sound effects down perfectly. Still using the 88 theme, but it's a small nitpick.

Nice Adult Swim reference later in the episode, too.

A great bit all around, but my favorite was Peter giving a 1-point answer to steal and explaining, "I was in the survey!"

And if that exact same joke hadn't been done with Ray Combs and "LaToya Jackson" on In Living Color 20 years ago, I might have found it funny.

Loved it.  Funny, too.  Stewie's "alternate" answers in the bonus round Fast Money were great.

That was a close second favorite, just because I can't recall hearing Dawson ever mention anything connected with Hogan's Heroes.
