A couple weeks before Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker was released, my good friend Dave invited me to join him for a podcast to discuss all 9 Skywalker Saga films once we’d seen the final one. Barely a week after it’s release, Dave and I sat down for an epic eight-hour conversation about our favorite film franchise.
Dave’s done a great job editing our conversation into four episodes, each of which are streaming now.
So I’m watching a re-run of Family Guy on Adult Swim, and a bit they did seemed eerily familiar. The clip is set up with something like, ‘it’s worse than that time Darth Vader was a meter maid.” Then we see this:
Sorry for the poor quality; couldn’t find a legit version on-line.
The clip is from the episode ‘Mother Tucker,’ first aired on September 17th, 2006. The video below was made by me and my buddy Jeff in the summer of 2005 (granted it wasn’t posted until August 7th, 2006).
Did Seth MacFarlane rip us off? The similarities are striking. But you be the judge.
Okay, honestly, I have absolutely zero reason to believe that anyone working for Family Guy ever saw this video. And to be even more honest, their clip is far more funny than ours. I just wanted an excuse to post this video again. Good times.
