Nice punch bowl of Family Guy entertainment with a not unusual chunk of excrement
calcaylor8 January 2019
Another episode of Family Guy I find hard to score with a single number. I have given it a 7 but that is a weighted score. There are many funny parts to the episode. It is not the normal A story, B story, C story running concurrently but rather a more or less chapter in the lives of the Griffin family over history.

It contains many references to actual historical events including vignettes using early sound film style and a Peter Hitler sketch.

I would have given it an 8 or possibly a 9 but, not surprisingly, Macfarlane takes the opportunity to inject another one of his unbridled hateful stabs at faith, Christianity seemingly his favorite to profane. But, as far as one of his Anti-Christ tirades, it is fairly mild and so, overall, ends up being one of my favorite episodes. And, thankfully, it does not include one of those thoroughly uninteresting Peter-Chicken fights they only add in on episodes that run short.

Articulate and very enjoyable.

Warning: Spoilers
This episode is unique. The reason it's unique is that it follows not the same pattern as the other episodes where there is a single main plot and maybe a subplot, but is made up of several stories. It was like watching three or four episodes at the same time. In this episode the griffin family is burglarized and is forced to hide in the attic. In the attic Peter had built a panic room and the family stays in that panic room. During their stay in the panic room Peter starts telling them stories about his famous ancestors, starting from cavemen to slavery days and other famous griffins in history. As said in the summary, this episode is articulate and enjoyable. Perhaps one of the best episodes of season four.
