Brian Does Hollywood

It's a fun episode. Wraps itself up a little too quickly but still great. The intro is brilliant. Watching the scenes with Bill Cosby is a little strange because he's such a monster obviously but it's still funny. The voice acting for Cosby is great.

I like this episode and the one before it but I wish Stewie wasn't such a jerk in the last one. Brian and Stewie usually have a great relationship in FG and their episodes are always the standouts of the series. I suppose I can understand why Stewie spit on him, Brian was a coke addict and acting like a complete ahole. I like the continuity here from that. Stewie mentions he's in show biz too and Brian's just like "cool. Great."

I read the other review from some guy who was so offended by one joke. listen, if you're so offended by a joke about the Manson family and Sharon Tate, maybe Family Guy isn't for you. That's not even that bad. The show is offensive but going back and watching it from the beginning, there's nothing too terrible here. I will say I have been offended by the show before, sometimes a joke will be in very poor taste and not funny. But that doesn't ruin the series or even the episode for me. I just don't laugh. I know the series has gone downhill and I don't watch it currently but rewatching these early eps have been giving me lots of laughs and comfort in the midst of a terrifying pandemic.
