The Griffins are chosen
to become a Nielsen family, which means they have a set top box in
their home so the networks can monitor TV habits. Peter is ecstatic
as he never gets chosen for anything and has the grand idea of
stealing all the Nielsen boxes therefore controlling all television.
At first he only has
enough clout to change the local news station where he forces Tom
Tucker to lose his moustache, end the show with a chainsaw and employ
some prairie dogs to look upset when there is tragic sad news. As
his power grows he controls storylines for national TV shows and we
get to see Peters bizarre ideas of what makes good television.
Peter changes up some of
America’s biggest shows, which he thinks is for the better. Mad Men
with light saber fight scenes, an episode of Cops with Bananas
instead of guns and Letterman reading a bedtime story are just some
of new Griffin changes. However, what Peter soon realizes is that
the whole town has turned against him for ruining television even
Quagmire and Joe are no longer his friends and so he has to work with
the networks to make it right again.
This isn’t the most
controversial or outrageous Family Guy episode you will ever see, but
there are some smart gags here and even a cameo from Homer Simpson,
which was pretty awesome!
