@FamilyGuyonFOX Goes DOWWWWWWNTONNNN With a Downton Abbey Spoof
I have never seen Downton Abbey in my life so I need your guys’ help with this…
Family Guy just did a pretty rotten job of an episode inspired by 12 Angry Men and now they intend to do some sort of spoof of Downton Abbey. That said, II have never seen the PBS show, but I know its popular so if/when we do the review of the show…please by kind! Anywho, The Sun newspaper is reporting that Brendan Coyle (Mr. Bates) was in LA where he met the Family Guy producers. He had this to say about his stop:
“I was in LA recently and I met the Family Guy people. They’re going to reference Downton Abbey in some of their episodes.”
Not sure if the reference is for a cutaway gag or if the writers want to do a whole episode like Downton Abbey. Hell, maybe it can be a Viewer Mail #3 type deal! In any case, I am sure whatever jokes they derive from the show will go completely over my head. Its good to hear the writers are making a bunch more Family Guy because we don’t get any new shit this year until April 14th on FOX.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
