Three Kings : Family Guy spoofs Stephen King

[herbertwest]

A few years back, there was a press release about FamilyGuy, saying that there will be an episod, entitled Three Kings, that will parody 3 King movies : Stand by Me, Misery & The Shawshank Redemption.
Fox have just announced that it will air on the 17th of May, so in less than a month!

Official info :
"Sunday, May 17

FAMILY GUY (9:00-9:30 PM ET/PT) – “Three Kings” – Season Finale

After Peter discovers the writing of Stephen King, he imagines his family and friends in three of King’s most famous works. First, Peter, Quagmire, Cleveland and Joe – as 12-year-olds – travel along a railroad track on a journey of self-discovery narrated by Richard Dreyfuss (guest-voicing as himself). Second, Brian is injured in a bad car crash only to be “rescued” by his “number one fan,” Stewie. Finally, Cleveland and Peter become fast friends in prison."

I've never watched Family Guy, so this sounds like I'll have to do some research before I tune in on the episode come May.

[jhanic]

Josieweirdo, just remember that Family Guy is an animated series, not using live actors.

*Nods* Yes, I'm aware of that. I do not mind cartoons and I think that, to some degree, they work better for parodies as they can get away with things others - such as series - would not be able to get away with so easily, so I don't mind it :)

[Daghain]

OMG Awesome! I love Family Guy!

Looks like that episode will be the season finale.

[Matt]

Never watched the show but I may tune in to this one.

[Sam]

I think I may be tuning in for this episode. Well, that and the Star Wars one when it airs.

[nt07077]

Family Guy= Funniest show on TV, hands down.

Blue Harvest?

or are they making a new one I haven't heard about yet?

[Sam]

They're supposed to be doing a spoof on Empire called "Something, Something, Something, Dark Side". It was originally going to be the season finale this season, but obviously it ain't now.

[Heather19]

Sounds good, I'll be watching!

Man, that was one funny episode.

I especiall loved the Stephen King joke about how fast he writes books and Andy Dufraine playing "Hollaback Girl" over the speakers. :lol:

[Sam]

FUNNY. AS. HELL!!!!!:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[herbertwest]

The episod is brilliant
:lol::rofl:

(Although, I wanted to see the leeches part in the Stand by Me sketch)

[Gris]

Downloading it now at home so I can watch it on my shiny new media PC when I get home from work.

Media PC is really not shiny, it's black, but it IS new! Took me a freaking month to build because of stupidity that I was never able to figure out, but working now. Go BD-ROM!

[Daghain]

Loved it. Stewie was hilarious in the Misery skit. "I just have to see if I can get the Big Wheel started". :lol:

[jhanic]

I ddin't watch it (I know, bad, bad John :angry:) but I wanted to watch the newest episode of Law & Order Criminal Intent. I knew I could watch it from the link above. I plan on doing this tomorrow.

I saw the episode and LOVED It. Oh man, laughed till my sides hurt. Gotta love how he mentioned being sued by King at the end. LOL

[Gris]

finally saw it last night. Poor Joe. Seems like no matter what level of the Tower he is on, he's not meant to walk.

[Brice]

Okay, this was great. I loved it.

[Mr. Rabbit Trick]
