That episode is Hilarius. Whats funny is when Peter Griffen is on fire on Christmas. Thats hysterical when Peter dances with a dead woman in the funeral inside. New England looks beautiful in this episode and a nice pool. What a brilliant song on the Family Guy episode of Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater. Lois looks hot in her swim suit when she was talking to her aunt. Thats a nice train and when Peter talks about the rock where the pilgrims landed at Fraggle Rock. Whats stupid is when two girls where liking Stewie. Whats Hilarius is when Peter Griffen gives the man a coke then gets his suit on. In this episode Aunt Margerita is dead so when she came she died of natural causes that is very sad. This episode is Hilarius you will like this show,so does the music and Lois Griffen hot in her new Bikini on. Family Guy on Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater.
Story: 7/10
The episode kicks off Family Guy's second season with a bang, as Peter's inheritance of a fortune leads to him transforming into a high-society snob. It's a clever premise, and the show manages to balance Peter's ridiculous attempts at fitting in with his newfound wealth and the wackier side of the Griffin family's antics. The plot doesn't break any new ground, but it's a solid way to start the season, with enough funny moments to keep it engaging. However, the story starts to feel a bit predictable by the end.
Characters: 7/10 Peter is the star of this episode, and his over-the-top attempts at becoming part of the upper crust of society are entertaining. The episode gives more focus to his character and introduces his absurd snobbery, which is the source of much of the humor. Lois and Stewie get smaller roles in this one, but their moments are still funny. The supporting characters, like Quagmire and Cleveland, offer their usual charm, but they're not as prominent here. The lack of strong development for the other characters makes this episode feel a bit one-note at times.
Humor: 7/10 There are plenty of laughs in this episode, but the humor is a bit hit or miss. Peter's behavior as a newly-rich man provides the majority of the jokes, and while many of them land well, others feel a bit repetitive. There are some classic Family Guy cutaways, but they aren't quite as sharp or varied as in other episodes. The humor is solid, but it doesn't quite match the show's usual chaotic brilliance.
Pacing: 7/10 The pacing of the episode is decent, but it feels a little uneven at times. The early setup with Peter's inheritance is fast-paced, but things slow down when the show lingers a bit too long on his snobby behavior. The episode also features a subplot with Stewie that feels disconnected from the main story. While not terrible, the pacing occasionally drags in the middle, making the episode feel a bit stretched out.
Writing: 7/10 The writing is solid, with the snarky humor and absurd situations that Family Guy is known for. The jokes about class and wealth are clever, though the episode relies a little too heavily on a single joke. The story's predictability toward the end is a small letdown, but there's still some sharp writing throughout, especially in Peter's interactions with other characters. There are a few standout moments, but the writing doesn't push any boundaries.
Animation: 8/10 The animation continues to be clean and polished in Season 2, with vibrant colors and smooth movement. The visual gags, especially in the high-society scenes, are executed well. The animation doesn't take any major risks here, but it's consistent and serves the humor of the episode. The character designs are familiar and consistent, with no major changes from the first season.
Voice Acting: 8/10 The voice cast is, as always, on point. Seth MacFarlane brings his usual charm to Peter, giving him the right mix of buffoonery and likability. The rest of the cast, including Mila Kunis and Seth MacFarlane's other voices, perform well. There's nothing groundbreaking in the voice work, but it's strong enough to sell the humor and emotions of the episode.
Final Verdict: 7/10 Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater is a fun start to Family Guy's second season, with plenty of laughs centered on Peter's ridiculous behavior as a newly-minted member of the upper class. While the episode doesn't break new ground or feature the sharpest humor, it's an enjoyable watch. The pacing could be tighter, and the reliance on a single joke about Peter's newfound wealth gets a bit repetitive, but overall, it's a solid episode with enough funny moments to make it worth your time.

Lois's wealthy Aunt Marguerite arrives in Quahog for a visit, and no sooner than she's through the door, she dies, leaving Lois a mansion in Newport, the family enjoy their new found wealth.
If you've ever wanted to know what untold wealth and riches would do to The Griffins, look no further, you'll find out here.
This is a genuinely funny start to series two, and when I think of the highlights from the early years, this is one of the best.
Many great scenes, including Peter dancing with the corpse of Marguerite and of course that wonderful auction, featuring a posh and totally absorbed Peter.
A winner, 9/10.
