This episode is complete garbage.
It's a Christmas special that revolves around the Griffins meeting Kevin James. And it's not funny in the slightest. It was such a boring and tedious episode to sit through, and not a single joke or cutaway lands.
It's perhaps the only Family Guy episode that I've ever seen where I never chuckled at least once at a joke (including some other stinkers like Life of Brian and Brian's a Bad Father, and those had at least one funny moment in the midst of their horridness)
Episodes like this are proof that Family Guy should have ended over a decade ago. But if the show does end someday, I hope that they can possibly make a movie as the series finale and end it off on a high note.

This reboot has been a disappointment so far and pales in comparison to the original series. I love Phil Lord and Chris Miller and nearly all of the work that they've done, but this just doesn't live up at all.
First off, the biggest things holding back this show are the degraded voice acting and the removal of Ghandi from the show. I understand why they did this to Ghandi, considering that he caused the original show's cancellation. But if you're going to write him out, at least give him one worthy replacement. Instead of giving him one worthy replacement character, the writers insisted on giving us a chock full of lousy and boring new characters to somehow patch the void that Ghandi left behind, but failed miserably in the process.
I still hope for the best for this reboot despite my gripes with it, but this season has paled in comparison to the original source material. And if it continues at this mediocre rate, then I believe that the show would be better off staying cancelled and untouched.

Ignore the review bombing over the accents. The complaints about the "defamatory" accents are unwarranted and stupid. If you watch the original UK version, just about every character in this show has a silly accent. If you are that concerned about how a kids' show cartoon character sounds, especially if they are meant to be silly, then you need to get a life.
In no way does the show intend to perpetuate negative stereotypes with the voices that it uses. If this were the case, then the targeted characters would be defamed and pointed out for what specific accent they had.
This negative press reminds me a lot of The Problem With Apu situation. Apu may have a silly voice, but so does just about every other character in The Simpsons. The point of both of these cartoons is to make fun of ourselves, not to try and hurt someone or their culture.
Beyond this stupid complaint that I keep seeing in these reviews, the show is awesome. For one, the intro itself is top notch. It's still stuck in my head to this day, and every character is perfectly suited for the entire 45 seconds.
Another thing that I love is the relatability of these characters. They may be simple, but their personalities mesh perfectly with what I go through in my daily life.
In addition, this show is very faithful to the original source material. Just like the books, the character designs are fun, creative, and expressive in just about every shot.
For anyone who loves the book series, this show is a must watch.
