Brian Griffin Family GuyAre they serious? In a shockingly casual way, FOX’s Family Guy killed off the family dog Brian, and replaced him with a new dog within minutes.

The episode began with Stewie and Brian running to escape from the turmoil of one of their time travel adventures. After a close call with altering the future, Stewie decides to destroy his time machine, (in retrospect, an obvious plot twist to ensure that Stewie can’t go back and save his pal Brian after he dies.)

Brian, who is in the middle of Spooner Street is abruptly hit by a car, and moments later, in a vet’s office, dies.

I’m not going to lie. I’m really disappointed about it, and not thrilled with the new character. I’m really hoping its a stunt and will resolve itself eventually.

A tribute video, then a promo for the episode is below … then read on for the character’s apparent replacement.

Vinnie GriffinAfter a brief  period of mourning, the Griffins decide to get a new dog, and settle upon Vinnie, voiced by The Sopranos‘ Tony Sirico – aka Paulie Walnuts.

Sadly, viewers who were waiting for Stewie to suddenly find a way to go back in time, or for one of the characters to wake up, or even the hint of a ‘to be continued’ were disappointed.

That said, it wouldn’t be difficult to bring Brian back if they wanted to. He is voiced Seth MacFarlane himself (who also voices Peter Griffin as well as several other characters.) MacFarlane made no mention of the incident on twitter Sunday night.

E! Online posted an interview with executive producer Steve Callaghan. Here are two excerpts:

We can’t believe that Brian is gone! What led you to make this crucial decision for the series?
Steve Callaghan: Well, this was an idea that got pitched in the writers room and it sort of caught fire, and we thought it could be a fun way to shake things up. As soon as this idea came up, we started talking about what the next couple episodes could be and we got very excited about the way this change wil affect the family dynamics and the characters.

Lastly, killing off Brian is a really big shocker. Are you worried about the backlash from longtime Family Guy fans?
I’m not, only because our fans are smart enough and have been loyal to our show for long enough, to know that they can trust us. We always make choices that always work to the greatest benefit of the series.

Someone Is Selling ‘A Bug’s Life’ Sex Toy On eBay And We Can Officially Kiss Our Childhood Goodbye

Strange feelings in 3, 2, 1…

There is loving your favorite childhood movies and then there is really loving your favorite childhood movies and unfortunately I am here to report on the latter.

The 1998 animated Pixar film A Bug’s Life told the story of a rag tag team of bugs that worked together to overcome a gang of really mean grasshoppers. Innocent enough right? Even after saving the entire kingdom, Flik (protagonist ant) only gets a peck on the cheek from the princess. We are talking real PG here people. So why…for the love of God why…is someone selling a fleshlight designed to look like Heimlich, the positively plump caterpillar from the film?!? (Side note: if you’re not exactly sure what a fleshlight is, just know it’s definitely not something that should be cross promoted with a children’s movie)

Texan artist Malek Lazri, is the creator of the sorrowful sex toy which, to his credit, is actually well done. It seems Lazri has painted over the original silicone of the fleshlight to match Heimlich’s color pattern and then added molded silicone to complete the facial features. Gotta love the attention to detail…? I’m not really sure how to compliment this form of art. Lazri also took to instagram to promote the sale of his unorthodox creation and jokingly said (I hope) “One hundred percent satisfaction guaranteed, very light wear, gently used, do NOT SLEEP on this one folks!!!” It’s the “gently used” part that insures those heebie jeebies.

It goes without saying that the fleshlight is not an official piece of Pixar memorabilia. Regardless, if you just have to have this piece as a part of your collection, it’s currently going for $2,o00. Good luck?

Check out the Instagram posting in it’s entirety below!
