I've been binging the whole series recently, I know ..right, and I noticed a major drop in the quality of the show over the previous seasons to this episode almost like they were done by other people. That's Fair enough though, it has been 17 seasons, and you can't expect the writers to be as fresh as they were in the early episodes. They've grown up, got mortgages, have to take kids to soccer, all the fun adult stuff.

That being said, this was a very funny episode and called back to the quality of the previous seasons.

Meg telling Peter what she can do was hilarious. Brian and Stewie under the Hummer I spat out my drink laughing.

Gender fluid Euro Carrier .. classic Family Guy.

What's this? Another bad episode of Family Guy? OH BOY! Holy cow! Holy...okay, ya know what? Let's just get this crap over with please? I'm not offended, but I'm deeply disappointed and disgusted. Meg got the attention she deserves, but in a BAD way. How? It is because she ends up getting fat by eating to much food in order to get high ratings from internet viewers. Brian and Stewie got an SUV and as usual, Brain still acts like an arrogant, obnoxious jerk of a mutt. Well, I did get a good laughs from the episode and Sam Elliott is in it, but I'm still disgusted by Meg's ugly, nasty obesity. This episode isn't the worst, it is not as bad as April in Quahog and when I call Girl, Internetted "bad", I didn't mean bad as in "cringeworthy bad" What I meant to say was....meh. It could've been worst. So consider this episode...meh. I give Girl, Internetted a 6.3/10

Meg becoming an internet celebrity due to overeating might not sound not exciting at first. After all, I was not a fan of the previous episode where Meg became famous with gross results (This Little Piggy). But this one was so well-thought out and packed with great gags throughout that I enjoyed it a lot more than I expected.

This episode is even more cynical than HTTPete. While that one was more of a general pisstake on how dumbed down the internet has made people, this one touches on a specific problem: people who glorify endangering your own health because it's "cool". The dark satire is further amplified by Meg continuing to promote unhealthy habits even when she's literally losing her legs, promoting some phony drug which apparently promises immortality. I like how Mila Kunis conveys a change in Meg's way of speaking as she put on a cool exterior and starts talking in that exaggerated way "kool kids" do, where every sentence sounds like she's promoting a mountain bike and waves her arms around constantly. Before she starts the eating trend, I thought it was funny when she told her dad which kind of abilities she has, and described what I'm sure is incredibly vulgar that was bleeped out. Meg having a dirty sense of humor has always has always made me chuckle. The plot goes to increasingly sillier lengths, which results in some real laugh-out-loud moments. Joe having the "Shining"-like ability to tell if something's wrong with people's legs, and Peter stabbing Cleveland just like in the movie. But the funniest part of that scene was the added reaction shot with Chris getting the abilities transferred to him with the same shocked reaction as Danny. Peter taking the Pancresta drug near the end is too crazy for words to even describe, but that made me laugh too.

The subplot involves Brian temporarily getting a new car after his old one is totalled, a Hummer, and starts driving around like a badass. I liked the transition of Brian first refusing to admit how he actually likes driving around liking cool, and then when he finally admits that he's having a ton of fun doing so feels devastated over the thought of giving it away. It was funny how they made fun of car fanatics by having a rock song (preferably a glam rock band) playing loudly on the radio, with Sam Elliot's smooth, countryside voice narrating. The two plots also intertwined into each other nicely by Brian coming to the rescue when Meg falls down, with Lois barely hearing him as "Lick It Up" is played at full volume. Brian and Stewie driving Mark Ruffalo bonkers at the end was a mirthful way to end it.

Lastly, Lois retorting Peter's claim that everything is back to normal listing off how things couldn't be more out control is one of my favorite ways for a Family Guy episode to end, where the absurdity is still very much present.

This and the previous two episodes have been very strong. I feel certain this season will go out on a positive note.

There are only so many social media jokes you can make here.

I did laugh a few times, but Meg was beyond annoying here. It just didn't work for me as an episode.

Stewie, Brian, Jillian and Olivia become famous by eating unhealthy foods, Steve Smith became famous by excising with and Luanne and Pouncey became famous by singing. Meanwhile Lois and go to New Hampshire to get her car fix after it broke down. Meg tries to become internet famous as well but it was sabotage by Pouncey by making her eat tons of junk food making her fat. Ruth, Patty and Esther finds Meg crying, Ruth suggested to get on Tv and become famous. Meg interrupted Stewie and Brian's commercial by her fat. Lois drives a brand new car Meg finds her self after eating too much junk food Peter even informed her Dr. Hartman cut off her feet because the medicine didn't help. James Wood High Stewie, Brian, Jillian, Steve, Luanne and Pouncey began preform. Steve became too weak to run. Patty, Ruth and Esther revealed their secret to Meg she and her friends even gotten because of Stewie, Brian, Olivia and Jillian but they even Hank, Peter, Bill, Boomhauer, Debbie, Steve and Luanne didn't know. Meg even found out Steve was starving. Meg, Patty, Ruth and Esther now fat vowed to exposed them and end this once and for all.
