What did you think of it?
Brian and Quagmire’s rivalry
This is postslop
Quagmire is just feeling what anyone would feel with a irl Brian. Just as they would a real Holden Caulfield.
Oh look at me, I'm soo above everything and everyone. I'm such a nice guy with an amazing IQ and view on things; how could anyone dislike the almighty me?
It really just felt like a setup for Brian to say "I f-ed your dad." I did like the lecture that Quagmire gave to Brian in the restaurant, at least I remember the scene. Which is more than what very forgettable modern FG episodes are- completely forgettable.
I kind of feel like Family Guy has overstayed it's welcome. American Dad just does much better and more memorable things these days. I mostly just watch new episodes of Family Guy as background noise these days and I quickly forget about the plot.
I'm completely sick of it. They milked it too long. What started out as a single satisfying scene after a couple seasons of character mismanagement turned into a black hole that sucked them both in and refused to let them fucking go, ruining both characters whenever they interacted with each other.
It's one of the more entertaining character changes in Family Guy. Whereas other antagonistic dynamics feel one-sided, Brian and Quagmire are pretty much on equal footing and moral standing. Makes it engaging to see just how far one can push the other.

Quagmire's a rapist.
Brian gave a baby Herpes.
I think I'll trust a dog with natural urges over the guy who said "Hi, I'm Glenn Quagmire"
I actually like it. It's refreshing to have something besides nothing or friendly between main characters. Execution is flawed but better than nothing
It doesn't work because it tries to portray Quagmire and Brian as equally bad, when Quagmire is a rapist.

He had sex with a kid and bribed her not to tell anyone
the current season brian is pretty respectful to quagmire but quagmire is still an asshole
Since Brian's a dog and never portrayed as elderly, isn't he still younger then she is?
Was the assumption that the audience would agree with quagmire about mounds bars? The joke doesn't work because the audience is meant to agree that everyone hates mounds bars but I don't think anyone feels that strongly so quagmire just seems like a dumbass
no one eats a mound bar and joe eats several of them a day
its weird
I understand the joke on paper, when was the last time you've seen anyone buy a Mounds bar? But in practice, it's just someone being an overly dramatic dick about a friend's choice in candy.
There's been multiple episodes about Brian's dog years translating to him being old. 50~ range according to Lois
He's a Family Dog and Quagmire is a cat loner now and he isn't allowed to rape ayone anymore.
I think it would have worked better with literally anyone else. Quagmire was the wrong person to give the "I have the moral high ground" attitude to when he's a fucking kidnapper and serial rapist. Or was, I haven't watched the show in years.
They intentionally chose Quagmire so the tone could be "dude even Quagmire is calling Brian out!" and you're just supposed to go exactly with what the show is trying to tell you to think, and then to show how dumb people really are they agree with the scene telling them "wow, Quagmire is totally in the right, you KNOW it's bad when HE has to say something!!"
I fucking hate this generation.
It would've been better if Brian just called him a rapist pedo after that whole monologue and bit his dick off.
I get a mounds bar from time to time because I like them. If nobody liked them or bought them I feel like they wouldn't be sold at every store
Anyone remember Chris merch having his shirt say "EIGHTH GRADE IS FRIGGIN' CRAP"?
That was weird, right?
He hasn't raped since the teen seasons.
they topped it (ha) immediately with this episode and should've abandoned it after that
Forced. Like half of Quagmire's early trysts.
there are also official magnets with that shirt. it's weird because it's not a remnant of any original design or anything
How is it that Brian looks so naked simply by removing his dog collar?
Just had to come up with something for marketing, probably. A lot of stuff back then would need quotes or dialogue to slap onto packaging. That was probably an example.
Did Quagmire become a cat person specifically after they'd introduced his beef with Brian as a dynamic that would stick?
i mean, but dude is a legit rapist, theres a lot of shit that youd have to turn a blind eye to in order to be friends with quagmire. and the funny shit is hes just as much as a know it all asshole as brian is.
They made Cheryl Tiegs look way too hot in the family guy artstyle
Forced and unfunny
So is Brian
Seth fighting himself
I hate it, It comes out of nowhere and makes Quagmire an instigating, hypocritical, self-righteous, asshole, on top of his rapist flanderization.
Brian may have gotten worse but making Quagmire the one to call him out on it (un)ironically made Quagmire just as bad if not more so.
Glenn and Brian are such gay names lol
I find it weird how Family Guy tries to have a "status quo" but allows all of the worst ideas to stay in "continuity".
What are you talking about? Quagmire always liked pussy
