Family Guy: Quagmire's Mom (2015)
Season 13, Episode 10
3/10
Unoriginal
11 February 2015
Warning: Spoilers
The first half of this episode revolved around Peter finding out his name was Justin, which then makes him act like a totally different person, making him more egotistical and cocky. I find this to be too similar to an episode of "The Amazing World Of Gumball", called The Name (aired July 2014), where Gumball finds out his actual name is Zach, and also starts acting like a egotistical jock. Both stories end in the same way, with the character going to city hall to legally change their name back and stop them acting cocky. I felt like this was too similar to the episode of Amazing World of Gumball, and just seems plain unoriginal, more-so than Family Guy already is. The second half of the episode got the story which the episode was titled for. We only see quagmires mom for less than 10 minutes, and already we need to develop a strong feeling for her, which seems idiotic, especially since her 'reformed' self only lasts 2 minutes, before she returns to being a sex addict. As a long fan of Family Guy, I feel disheartened that it has stooped a new low, and needs to return to coming up with semi-original ideas.
