A Great, Funny Season Finale!
The seventh and final episode of the very short Family Guy: Season One is a funny and sometimes moving episode. This episode puts the spotlight not on the Griffin Family this time around, but more on their dog, Brian. For the first time, Brian becomes more centralized and we see what kind of a dog he is and why he differs from the other dogs. This episode features some funny jokes, and of course some hilarious pop culture references.
This episode, "Brian: The Portrait of a Dog" is perhaps the strongest episode mainly because Brian is my favorite character. Essentially, this episode is about how Brian gets in trouble with the law and how close it was that Brian left the family for good.
Overall, this is a really funny episode that is a good conclusion for the first season. I think it was appropriate for an episode to be all about Brian. I rate this episode 9/10.
