Classic Family Guy, wasting/padding the time of the episode with 2 minutes of dragged joke to the point that it's not funny anymore! Although the plot of the last episode was better but not well executed, this one at least it made me laugh a couple of times unlike the last one. One weird thing is, that both Family Guy and American Dad are 20 minutes per episode, yet American Dad episodes feel like a 30 or even 45 minutes episode with solid plots and a beginning, middle and ending, Family Guy on the other hand feels like it's just 10 minutes and they cut most of the scenes and you have this "quick go to every plot point and just to next plot unrelated scene" feel to it that is just kinda pointless. And all of that is because of the pointlessness of the plot, you have a fairly mediocre plot but you don't progress anything and characters just do things and they don't advance the plot. Like the other reviewer said; Peter in this episode gets tall, go to the bar then go the park and then comes back and he doesn't want to be tall anymore. Like what was the point? How is it that American Dad can do a intriguing plot in 20 minutes like you're watching a movie but this show is just cutaway gags and most of the scenes are boring and rather cringy?

Hire new writers, please! save this damn show, it's time to change the writers and make Family Guy like the way it was back then, and if not then what's the point of this lazy writing and animation and everything? This show has gotten lazy for the past few seasons and it's a shame, either get new writers or just end the show.

This Episode was just weird and kinda okay i guess the weakest of the season so far alot of cheap gay jokes but the plot was kinda cute in a family guy way peter being tall then not was dumb i only laughed when brian ate the squirrel but it was okay weird but dumb

It pains me to see this show decline so violently in quality. It's been reduced to a string of desperate attempts to stay "relevant and hip"(with few rare exceptions such as "the d in apartment 23" and "HTTPete" from season 16) with little or no refreshing insights or commentaries, and unbelievable storylines that are so bizarre that they strip away any character consistency that once made the characters(Stewie) endearing to us.

Family guy was almost never a show that'd won us over with captivating storytelling. Yet it held its own with its unique outlandish, imaginative humor that fired at you at rapid speed that made it a joy to watch. Years from now those instagram Twitter jokes would age poorly except most of them were never memorable in the first place.

Gosh I miss the family guy that did its own thing and gave us some of the best laughs ever.

Had funny jokes. Was even clever at some points. Plot was pretty bad and had some awkward moments and some stuff didn't land but the humor overall makes this episode worth watching.

Season 18 was really lackluster with some even outright-bad episodes. But Season 19 isn't neccessarily a trainwreck that you can't look away from. For the most part, from these 3 episodes gathered (and it may be too early to judge), the show has just gotten boring. The reasoning behind this is simple: They're running out of ideas. One thing you will notice in the newer seasons of FG is they will introduce a plot then immediately scrap it 10 minutes into the episode then introduce a new one. Then throw in a filler cutaway gag that takes up way too much time and you get a bunch of writers who are simply just phoning it in at this point. FG started to decline in quality after it was revived in 2004-ish. However, the show experimented with many things from 04-12 (Chicken fights, Stewie and Brian episodes became more interesting and outlandish, Star Wars and history parodies, attempting to evoke emotion while having little to no humor and thank god we never got a clip show). Some of these things worked, some of them didn't. I noticed the show became more gory around 08-ish but it only worsened. Not to Ren and Stimpy levels where they could make it funny, but the writers seem to get off on making the viewer uncomfortable and it be an inside joke between them alone. This is an example that the show is objectively not well-written at all (which would be a fine excuse if the show was always bad but it wasn't). The first season however that told me things were taking a turn for the worse, where I knew the writers were running out of material and stopped caring was definitely Season 12. There were still some decent episodes that season. Then Season 13 was all of the flaws of season 12 taken and amped up. I've been told excuses, that the writers love experimenting with the characters and storylines and ignore continuity for this reason and that they like having more freedom. This WAS true at some point but not anymore. Introducing a plot, scrapping it once you realize it can't go anywhere and only works to introduce a few one-liners, introducing the main synopsis 10 minutes into the episode and rushing it with a half-assed end would be one thing if they were phoning it for that week.. We've BEEN getting that several times on modern FG. Some of the banter on FG between some side characters still evokes a couple chuckles out of me, sometimes the show is so ridiculous you want to tune in just to see where they're going to go with the plot, and believe it or not: Even the bad episodes have atleast one funny cutaway gag. This one was just a forgettable episode. The plastic wrap gag would've been fine if they didn't drag it out for 2 minutes. We're never getting S1-3 classic FG again and I've accepted that but the show can still be fixed... or cancelled. It's obvious Seth wanted it to end after 9 or 10 seasons but that's FOX for you.

This episode is really bad none of the jokes were funny I really didn't like the side plot with stewie and Chris the gay jokes don't work I'm going to stick with old episodes because the new ones it's not even funny the writing gone downhill.

Very funny episode. The Stewie and Chris storyline could have been handled better, but the Peter storyline was very funny.

First time I feel so bored when watching family guy.

Really good episode have a good moments and jokes. I think this episode best of last seasons

Seth give up your ego and watch the latest episode of the south park (The pandemic special) so, you may find how to make the family guy funnier!

The episode was good overall but I don't think they should have included Chris, he is just not as likable as Stewie and Peter. He also just isn't funny

Both plots were funny and wacky in itself. It made me laugh a lot. Hopefully this season ends strong in a good way.
