New Family Guy episodes for May!!!
April 9, 2009 by Wendy Boswell
I’ve got the lowdown on the Family Guy episodes scheduled for May. Here we go:
May 3, 2009
“We Love You Conrad”
When Brian discovers that his ex, Jillian (guest voice Drew Barrymore) is getting married, he is devastated until he meets “The Hills” star Lauren Conrad (guest-voicing as herself). Brian quickly discovers that Lauren just might be his perfect match – if only he can let Jillian go. Audrina Patridge, Jay Leno, Craig Ferguson and Jimmy Fallon also guest-voice in the all-new episode.
May 10, 2009
“Peter’s Progress”
Peter has his palm read by a psychic who reveals that he had a fascinating past life as Griffin Peterson, a dignified gentleman who vied for the love of Lady Redbush in 17th century England and in the newly founded American colony of Quahog. It was a time of great love and adventure where King Stewart reigned supreme, the smartest dog in the room was the court jester, army lieutenants were merely boys and even old England loved “How I Met Your Mother” (Jason Segel, Neil Patrick Harris and Josh Radnor guest-voice).
May 17, 2009
“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.
Awesome, right? I’ll put up the rest of the Fox animation schedule for May tomorrow, but I thought you’d like to hear about the new FG episodes first. :>)
I just KNEW “Three Kings” would be the finale, what with “Something, Something, Something, Dark Side” being pushed back to Season 8. However, the parodies where not what I had in mind; I already knew about “Misery”, but I kind of envisioned a parody of “Carrie” starring Meg (admit it, that totally would have worked), and “It” featuring Peter and the guys (and maybe Lois and Mort since there were six kids, and that too would have worked maybe). But when it comes to episodes dedicated to more direct parodies, they tend not to disappoint. I shall look forward to what life this season has left.
So that is five new episode in row starting April 19,
So two new episodes in April 19, & 26
Then three new episodes in May 3, 10 & 17 (Finale on the 17)
