Girl Power!
Analog_Devotee26 January 2022
This is the episode of Family Guy you oughta show your daughter. This is a great display of GIRL POWER if I've ever seen one -- additionally very funny and enjoyable, too.

Very good Family Guy episode
djjimmyvespa1 March 2006
Warning: Spoilers
Contrary to the opinion of the other reviewer, I really liked the second half of this episode - it's mostly the cast beating the crap out of each other, with plenty of surreal and bizarre touches, and the punchline where Peter begins bad-mouthing the network only to have the show's budget cut - and he begins jerking around the room in South Park style limited animation - is a killer! I suppose it's whatever catches you in the mood, but I haven't seen an episode of Family Guy yet that didn't contain at least a couple of laugh out loud moments. Elsewhere, the stuff about the 'leafers' - brash New Yorkers who come to Quahog every year to watch the trees change colour - was really hilarious, and something I could identify with. I live in a British midlands town and every year there's a hot air balloon festival, and the town gets choked up with tourists and visitors for the whole weekend, turning my entire street and the surrounding streets into a big unofficial car park. I wish I had Lois on my side at times like that - better yet, Stewie, to put some mind-meld on them!

Amazing classic Family Guy
shakedatjunk5 October 2021
Very funny, very well written, atmospheric, the randomness we expect from Family Guy, actions in the episode have consequences and come to a conclusion. Also the fight scenes were very entertaining. The scenes with the New Yorkers were also great. Stewie & Brian's duo low key grew this episode as their partnership wasn't quite as much on display at this point.

This episode is back when Family Guy was more structured and followed the rules of scriptwriting a little bit more and it felt very polished because of it. This episode also had a lot of the elements still present in the more modern Family Guy seasons. The episode felt classic while still feeling like it hits all the modern Family Guy beats, such as the random humor which was done very well.

Great episode I love watching it every fall as it oozes those vibes as well.
