Family Guy is back on Fox tonight at 9p and Peter Griffin gets fired not once, not twice, but three different times. Each time through the eyes of a different director.
In the first firing, it is done by Quentin Tarantino and there will be blood. Lots and lots of blood as this story is told in the style of Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill.
Next up, they go to hipster Wes Anderson. Before Griffin was fired, he was going to do a play at the quarry. Now that is off because he is out of work. But his family won’t let that happen. Will the curtain go up on his production?
Finally, the anthology ends with Michael Bay behind the camera. Much like his movies, I have no idea what was going on in this segment. There are explosions, scantily dressed women, Transformers and explosions. Just like all the other Bay films.
While this episode gets a standing ovation, there is also some sadness to it. It is Carrie Fisher’s second to last episodes and one of Adam West’s final ones. They did great work on this show and it is nice to see them still be part of it even after they are gone.
