9. Petergeist
Season 4 Episode 26
“Petergeist” crams each scene with popular culture references, and whereas it might develop tiresome by its midpoint, you may’t assist however recognize its speedy firing of gags. The whole episode is a riff on Poltergeist, with Stewie getting caught within the TV after discussing the aftermath of Pals with the supernatural entity. From there, it escalates right into a frenzy of references and bits of Poltergeist lore that turns into extra sardonic. Herbert fights a tree like Gandalf in Lord of the Rings, Peter’s peeled pores and skin reveals Hank Hill, and Peter and Stewie escaping the TV straight by means of Meg’s rear finish is all excellent Household Man nonsense. Additionally this was how I used to be launched to Phil Collins’ “Within the Air Tonight” and the not Mike Tyson bit in The Hangover.
8. Leggo My Meg-O
Season 10 Episode 20
It is a Brian and Stewie journey with them turning into Bryan Mills in a Taken parody. When Meg is kidnapped in Paris on a visit overseas, Stewie and Brian take it upon themselves to avoid wasting her. After all, Stewie acts as the person of motion and grasp of disguise whereas Brian is close by consuming a sandwich. “Leggo My Meg-O” is a enjoyable tackle Taken with some pictures instantly, uh, taken from its supply materials, like Meg being pulled from underneath the mattress and Peter doing the “I don’t know who you’re” speech. Simply to suppose this predated Liam Neeson working with Seth MacFarlane in movies and on Household Man.
7. Fats Gun
Season 23 Episode 1
Within the season 23 opener, Prime Gun and Prime Gun: Maverick get their good ol’ Household Man ribbin’ with Peter as Maverick, Joe as Goose, Stewie as Iceman, and Chris as Rooster. Each different interplay with Joe’s Goose has Peter going, “Discuss to me, Goose,” which all the time lands fun together with enjoying up the homoeroticism in a hilarious tackle the seaside scene. Most of Prime Gun‘s section is sheer silliness, poking enjoyable on the ‘80s outdatedness. Then, Maverick presents a visually spectacular recreation of the finale’s dogfight sequence, coupled with making enjoyable of plot holes starting from Rooster’s youthful age and its complete feminine forged from the predecessor being shafted. Sure, Tiny Tom Cruise makes a cameo.
