They should do another Stephen King episode.


They should do another Stephen King episode. Three Kings is a great episode.

If they were to do another one, which 3 movies would you want them to do?


Carrie

Pet Sematary

Cujo, Children of the Corn, Thinner, The Stand or The Shining.

reply

Yeah definitely

Carrie

The Stand

It

reply

Yeah I could see Carrie. Meg as Carrie. That would be a great one. Lois as Margaret White or Miss Collins.

I changed my list.

reply

Pet Sematary for sure. The idea of Stewie as Gage Creed is too perfect for words.

reply

I keep changing my mind on what movies I would want to see.

Carrie w/ Meg & Pet Sematary w/ Stewie are good choices although when they brought The Stand to TV in '94 it became a six hour miniseries, somehow I doubt they could tell the same story in a seven minute segment.
I think Thinner, Cujo & Firestarter would be easy ones for FG.

reply

Yeah, Cujo was on my list for them to do.

Cujo would be a great one to do. Lois, Brian and either Stewie or Chris,

What about Children of the Corn?

reply

The Simpsons have Treehouse of Terror every year for Halloween. It'd be cool if Family Guy would do an annual Halloween show with Stephen King or classic horror movies. My suggestions would be:

1)Pet Semetary
2)Carrie
3)Cujo
Or even:
Needful Things
Children of the Corn
Firestarter

Awesome idea!

I really want to see Carrie and either Pet Semetary or Cujo.

I think Thinner would be a great one with Peter.

reply

Ooh Thinner was on my list. It should replace Cujo!

reply

Thinner, though one of the lesser known King works, could easily work with Peter as the cursed protagonist and Herbert as the old gypsy. Cujo is a no-brainer as well; Brian could easily become rabid and menacing after being bitten by the squirrel who is always baiting him. Maximum Overdrive and The Running Man could work as well...

"...And on this farm he had an igloo..."

reply

Think Carrie with Meg would be great as others said.

Maybe It, with Herbert as It since he preyed on kids primarily.

I don't really care for Cujo but it'd probably be an easy one to cover and could use Lois, Stewie/Chris, and Brian.

Love to see Shining too as it's classic but it's used so often in parodies I'm not sure.
There is lots of potential though for another episode.

reply

I loved it when they did Misery with Stewie as Annie Wilkes!

I can see Cujo; it could be very funny. Needful Things would be excellent; break it down to its basic storyline (a stranger shows up in town and gives the residents every thing they want)and it would be brilliant!

She did it! She did it! The lady with the grape!

reply

Carrie, Pet Semetary and The Shining!

reply

I would love another SK episode!!!

reply

Apt Pupil with Brian as the pupil and Stewie as the nazi, or how about the old perv as the nazi and chris as the pupil. That would be sick.

reply

i love that idea, definitely the shining, my favorite in the ones made was stewie as kathy bates in misery "i just finished the book you dirty birdy", i actually saw this spoof of stand by me before the actual movie, that's quite a trip when you catch the spoof first, i had to look away when the train was coming. family guy has made other three stories in one episode spoofs like these, often then i don't know what they are spoofing, i guess this is the most well known and mainstream to a modern audience. i can't believe this show has been on for over 20 years now, and still is as funny, they have even kept the same opening and music all this time, the cancellation gap transformed the show to become way sharper and funnier. brian: - "i'm not sure i like that", stewie: - "well it's done".
