Loved the story, and loved the blending of the new animation with the old. These "concept episodes" have been the best episodes of FG over the past couple of seasons.
Still amazed how many 9/11-related gags MacFarlane puts in considering he was supposed to be on one of the planes that day.

I really liked this episode. Loved the footage of Brian stopping 9/11 and his catch phrases also in the future what the cutaways had turned into: "Matthew McConaughey is terrible" with Peter against a white screen

I miss "what the deuce?" and "damn you vile woman"
this episode was ballsy, it might remind people of how much funnier this show used to be
and I say that as someone that still likes it but thinks it's not at its best
this ep was good though

The scene with the multiple copies of Stewie and Brian reminded me of the "Parallels" episode of Trek TNG for some reason. The barber shop universe = the Borg universe.

Ok, I had a good laugh at Peter's line about women in combat. I don't remember the exact quote, but it was something along the lines of:
But with their monthly bleeding, how can you tell if they are really hurt?

Fuck you MacFarlane. If I wanted a morality lesson I'd go to Sunday school. And a week after Veteran's Day too- what a fucking douchebag.

Funny episode - seems they're starting to get back to their old ways a bit. I laughed for a few minutes towards the end where Peter said in the background "Ok guys it was really great having ya" I don't know why that was so funny...just was.

Is Cherry Chevapravatdumrong still around? I haven't seen her name around in a while. Perhaps there was a writing change a while back.

I'm torn about this one. I always find McFarlane's forced messages and preaching to be tedious, but I do enjoy the manufactured butthurt it brings out in people.

I didn't find this episode that funny. The bathroom line was good but the only literal LOL moment was the big eyed kids visual gag.

I started giving them another chance a couple of weeks ago (after not watching it since the brian eating stewies shit out of the diaper ep), but I'm now out again.

Patrick Stewart being the inner voice of the daughter and Mayor West being a wizard were good
