I haven't been too excited for a cartoon in a longtime. When I heard this was gonna happen I was like whoa.... That means the universes of the Simpsons and Family Guy have been the same all along!? I remember back in 1998 when Family Guy first aired thinking it wasn't going to last and that it was too much like The Simpsons. Gee I was wrong! As the 2000's came along Family Guy proved to be a big cult hit. Took me a few episodes to really understand and by 2003 I was a big Family Guy fan. Loved the Simpsons during the 90's as well,but never thought these two worlds will meet until now(although I am aware of that short cameo in an earlier episode).
As far as the rape joke goes, I wasn't offended by it too much. Wasn't funny and coulda been left out,but at the same time goes to show Family Guy has more extreme humour than The Simpsons. Also gotta understand Stewie is a psycho! Even Bart ended up not liking him too much. I thought it was trippy how the slight difference in humour between both shows was pointed out.
Anyways I thought the interactions of both universes was really really funny. Even though it was weird how it touched on every clichéd trademark of the two respective shows,from the catch phrases to each of the characters' interests.I wish Quagmire appeared more in this episode though. Like when Homer mentioned he doesn't know him,I thought Quagmire shoulda popped in that scene and did his "giggity-giggity-giggity" bit. Although it was funny when they compared him to Lenny.
I enjoyed watching this episode baked btw lol. The fight between Homer and Peter towards the end had me giggling throughout. This episode I have to mention was very well animated I thought. Good blend of computer and cel animation,especially the action towards the end. Whoever did the storyboards for this deserves a Duff beer. I never thought the character design styles of the two different shows would go well together, but actually they do.I thought the appearance by Fred Flinstone and that alien from American Dad was awesome. Ohh and that Bob's Burgers guy! Damn this episode gave me sorta the same feelings like when I watch Who Framed Roger Rabbit? So cool to see all these different animation universes uniting!
I thought the interactions between all the respective characters was hilarious,except weird they didn't pair Maggie up with anyone. Wouldn't Bart really should be paired up with Chris and Maggie with Stewie? Eh whatevs I guess... Lisa more perfect than Meg!? Although Meg is a better sax player? LOL
The funniest joke I thought was when Stewie asked Bart how long Nelson was beating him up and he said "24 years"...Guess that's different in cartoon years.
Anyways I can stand the referential humour because I am a fan of both the Simpsons and Family Guy. While I will agree with most that both shows haven't produced anything great in years,I feel this is very much the best thing they've done in a longtime. As far as what it stands for(simply a Simpsons meets Family Guy crossover), I definitely feel it delivers. It's not Shakespeare or anything socially redeeming,but all I know is that this episode made me laugh. I gotta say I always wondered for years what it would be like when both shows met,and this episode definitely hits the spot in the right places. I'll probably watch it again on Youtube.
