I liked this episode a lot but that other dog react so calm about returning Bryan makes zero sense to me.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

*SPOILERS*

Finally Brian Griffin has returned to Family Guy. This is why I kept watching Family guy since 'Life of Brian'. Hope. Hope has brought Brian back.

So the episode starts of the usual until there is a point were you realise Brian might be coming back. And he does.

Brian is still the same as usual, funny, witty and brilliant. I love this show so much and now that Brian is the only one who knows about his near death experience (for reasons I won't bother to go into) makes it even more awesome.

Welcome back Brian... and welcome back Family Guy.

You Fell For It!!

The episode was mostly actually pretty good, considering how dreadfully unfunny the last two were. Whilst watching I was astounded by two things, the creators were keeping to their convictions and sticking with Vinnie, and Vinnie was actually funny. His spiel about "You Blew It" was actually a fun spoof of Brian and the pretentiousness that went along with the Brian character. But of course, the writers proved Brian's death WAS a publicity stunt and brought back Brian, as if saying "F### taking risks, this is the NEW Family Guy"

Just as the idiots were outraged about poor wittle Brian's unfunny, melodramatic last ep, they are so insanely happy to see the white dog back that they totally forgot they were being played as morons. 8.8? REALLY?

Can't get too mad though, this show has lacked any creativity the last 5 years, it's only expected they would lack any conviction and ruin this pretty good ep with a sappy, fan-service ending.

Just because they brought back Brian, doesn't mean this episode is automatically good

Ok now I do agree that killing off Brian was stupid especially bringing him back literally 2 episodes later, but come on people this episode is good just because Brian came back from the dead? That explains the 7.6 rating is has.

Now let me say my feelings about this one: This episode sucks. That's all I have to say. Not because Brian came back, it's the stupid ending where they say it's ok to ruin someone's life just to bring back someone from the dead. Also nothing changed really when Brian came back. The characters still act like their jerky and mean selves in Modern Family Guy, Brian is still unlikeable especially in the next episodes like Brian's A Bad Father and Herpe The Love Sore, so this episode is stupid just like Life Of Brian. Also no I don't feel happy Brian's back since he wasn't gone for long and he still acts like a jerk.

Huge mistake.

Everyone wanted Brian to come back to Family Guy at the time of when this episode was released. He did, in this episode, but as we soon find out in later episodes from season 12 (especially with episodes such as Brian's a Bad Father and Herpe the Love Sore), bringing Brian back was probably a huge mistake. I think Family Guy would have been a much better show had Brian stayed dead.

To everyone who wanted Brian to come back after the episode Life of Brian was released, hope you feel good about yourselves in regards to making Family Guy even worse.
