Warning: Spoilers.
Tonight's episode of Family Guy was entitled Quagmire's Dad and we are introduced to Quagmire's father for the first time. Hence the title.
His father, in the latter part of the episode, has a sex change and becomes a woman. He then, unknowingly to both of them, sleeps with Brian.
That's just the summary. And Quagmire's father having a sex change isn't the point of this blog entry. Once Quagmire learns his father slept with Brian, he goes crazy again and beats the shit out of Brian. The tone of the show at this point is very serious.
This goes back to an earlier episode when Brian takes Quagmire out to dinner because he thinks Quagmire hates him. Then, Quagmire bitches him out and rants about why he hates him. When I was watching that, I was waiting for something to turn funny. But nothing ever did. It was dead serious and I was rather frightened.
During this episode, they kind of go back to that hatred and just add to it after thinking the dinner scene was just a one time thing and their fight was over. I hate this seriousness of the show. Last weeks epsiode was serious, but it was good. It was funny and then was about a very serious subject. This week's episode was just serious at the end and it didn't even end on a funny note; Quagmire kicks the shit out of Brian and walks out of the Griffin house, then Brian shouts out at him, "Hey, I fucked your dad!" and then just ends. Yeah, the last comment was rather funny, but after the seriousness of the fight, there was no way you could laugh.
Family Guy is one of my favorite shows, if not my top favorite. It is the only show to get me outmof a bad mood. But this is getting just a bit too serious! :/
