What did you think of “Three Kings”?
May 13, 2009 by Wendy Boswell
“Three Kings” aired this Sunday, and it was pretty good! The episode was divided into three parts and they were VERY loosely based on “Stand by Me”,” Misery” and “The Shawshank Redemption.” Richard Dreyfuss narrates, and he was great. Here’s a short synopsis:
After Peter discovers the writing of Stephen King, he imagines his family and friends in three of King’s most famous works.
Here’s the episode if you missed it:

It seems like all of Stewie’s hard work is paying off until Peter drops a bombshell when he reveals just how Stewie got those six-pack abs.
