Quotes 

• James Lipton - Host : In Family Guy, tell me, Loretta, how does a hot-blooded woman like you wind up with a peaceable man like Cleveland?

  Alex Borstein : [as Loretta]  I think it's... ying-yang,

  [Seth bursts out laughing] 

  Alex Borstein : opposites attract.

  [in her regular voice] 

  Alex Borstein : He divorced me, though, it's over.

  James Lipton - Host : I know.

  Mike Henry : [as Cleveland, indignantly]  You fucked Quagmire!

  Alex Borstein : [as Loretta]  Well...! You gave me girth; I was lookin' for length.

• James Lipton - Host : [on Mila Kunis not being present at the taping]  I'm talking of course about Mila Kunis; the wonderful irony of that role is that the exceedingly plain Meg is played by this exceedingly beautiful woman.

  [shows a photo of Mila] 

  Alex Borstein : I'm glad she's not here; I look prettier.

  James Lipton - Host : For that matter, so do I.

• Himself - Host : And now the moment the students have waited for: what is your favorite curse word?

  Seth MacFarlane : "Jesus Christ."

  Alex Borstein : [happily]  "Cunt."

  Seth Green : I'm a big fan of "motherfucker," but when Tom Hanks was on here, he reminded me that "horseshit" is fantastically useful. Because it sounds so classic - when someone's like "oh, blah blah," and you're like "that is HORSESHIT!"

  [grins] 

  Mike Henry : A series of "fucks."

  [angrily] 

  Mike Henry : "FUCK, FUCK, FUCK!

  [quietly] 

  Mike Henry : ... fuck."

• James Lipton - Host : If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the pearly gates?

  Seth MacFarlane : "I'm really sorry about all my followers."

  Alex Borstein : "You look much thinner in person."

  Seth Green : "You can slam-dunk up here."

  Mike Henry : "I never judged you based on all the shit jokes and all the muff jokes you told. C'mon in."

• Alex Borstein : [as Lois, giggling]  It's not every day I'm on Lipton's show!

  Seth MacFarlane : [as Peter, to Alex]  If you want to sleep with him, I will be okay with that.

  Alex Borstein : [as Lois]  Really? He can be my freebie?

  Seth MacFarlane : [as Peter]  Remember how we said "freebie"? Yeah.

  Alex Borstein : [as Lois]  Really?

  Seth MacFarlane : [as Peter]  Yeah, yeah. You get him, I get Bonnie Franklin. That's you. There you go. You are welcome. He's a classy guy.

  Alex Borstein : [as Lois]  Okay.

  Seth MacFarlane : [as Peter]  And I betcha...

  [to Lipton] 

  Seth MacFarlane : I speak for you, sir...

  [to Alex] 

  Seth MacFarlane : I bet he's gotta big dick.

  [audience laughs and applauds] 

  Seth MacFarlane : [as Peter, to audience]  What? It's - I'm a guest - I'm a guest and you're supposed to pay your host a compliment.

  [to Lipton] 

  Seth MacFarlane : That is my compliment to you, sir, Mr. Lipton. I bet you have - you have a formidable penis.

  Alex Borstein : [as Lois, to audience]  He's certainly not denying it, is he, folks?
