The best Christmas episode of any series i've ever seen
This week I saw all «Brian and Stewie Griffin going to a distant place from Quahog» episodes and I should say that, as for me, this one was the best of them. The story is really intriguing and entertaining, several jokes made me burst out laughing and even musical parts, which usually irritate me, in this episode work quite well. The dialogues between Brian and Stewie are superb, animation is at top level, but, what is more important, this episode perfectly deliver Christmas mood from the beginning to the end. And I think everyone, who watches Simpsons as well, will admit that Set MacFarlane's Christmas story is way better this time.
I put it nine, because, some jokes are quite silly, though, it's not a big deal as there are a lot of brilliant jokes, that compensate them easily.
So don't waste your time and watch it, you'll enjoy it!

My favourite Christmas special
I watch this every year to get me into the Christmas Spirit and it works every time. So much fun and back when the Family Guy jokes were actually funny. Love it.
Very dark once Stewie and Brian get to the North Pole,but still a very good Christmas special,
Road To The North Pole is a very good hour long Christmas special of Family Guy and watching totally got me into the spirit of Christmas,the start of it was very funny,although once Stewie and Brian get to the North Pole it gets very dark,especially when they deliver to there first house,and the big change on Santas Elfs and Reindeers.
Narrated by Ron Macfarlane,Seth Macfarlanes father,everyone in Quahog except for Brian is getting ready for Christmas,and there letters to Santa are as greedy as ever,after Stewie and Brian go to the mall and wait forever to see Santa and once they get there the fake Santa is done for the night,Stewie decides he wants to kill Santa and heads to the North Pole,Brian tags along to keep Stewie safe.
Once Stewie and Brian make it to the North Pole to Santas Workshop,they discover that Christmas is killing Santa because of how greedy the world is getting,Santa is not fit enough to deliver the presents so Brian and Stewie decide the do the job for him.

Exhausting episode
This is a relatively early episode of Family Guy. Didn't think...and it shouldn't still be airing new episodes...my god has this show just become a fraction of a shell of its former self.
But I think Seth was still involved at this point.
This episode feels like a later season episode ...where it's completely boring...not funny at all ..and more of a chore to watch than enjoyable.
It seems to rate high...and I had only seen it once...so I was in a Christmas mood and said, I'll give it another watch. I hadn't rated it on IMDb, so I didn't know what my thoughts on it were.
I think this was one that I watched...didn't rate it, but was my transition phase of actually enjoying FG and looking forward to it...to the point where I don't even watch new episodes when they come out.
I need to get away from Family Guy for months at a time...so I miss it a bit, and then that's when I catch the newer episodes...and then of course get tired of not laughing and stop watching and have to wait a few more months before I do that to myself again.
This is...not 10 9 8 7 6 5 4... I'm struggling to give this a 3. This was flat line. Nothing. Idea may have been good ..but execution was horrendous.
I tend to be able to stomach or watch any Christmas episode of a show. Sure I like some more than others, but when I want Christmas, I can watch a sub par episode. This? I have no need or desire to ever see this episode again.
It's really not good.

- Quotes
Ron MacFarlane - Narrator: Hi, I'm Ron MacFarlane, Seth MacFarlane's dad and I'm here to tell you about a very special Christmas in Quahog. Kenny Rogers was supposed to be here, but I think he's dead. Anyway, Seth came out of my penis, and then he made this.
- Alternate versionsIn later showings in China the scene of Winnie the Pooh and Eeyore was cut due to the character Winnie the Pooh later getting banned by the Chinese Government for silly mishaps of making Xi JinPing look like the character.
