Plot
Brian becomes romantically interested in someone and it inspires him to use Stewie's time machine. Strange consequences result from their journey.
Why It Almost Destroyed Everybody's Faith
- To get the elephant out of the room: This episode simply mocks the Christian community in the unfunniest way possible, which is incredibly offensive towards religion and comes off as the writers being intolerant towards religious people and popes, as God is decipted so negatively that it could be seen as an insult to humanity since there are people who believe in God and many churches are usually made to pay honor and respect for him (though most of them are sometimes used for weddings but still), which could be seen as mocking the Holy Bible, something that many Moral Guardians would have a field day over it due to their sensitivity towards spearding hate against the Bible. This proves that many of the writers behind the show did not learn their lesson and still continue to drive the show into the ground.
- The episode also mocks atheists in the most horrible way possible too through Brian’s behavior as he decides to meddle with the historical timeline for a very stupid reason; which is because a girl he was dating refused to fornicate with him as a result of her faith. This goes to show how Brian has been badly flanderized beyond recognition.
- One of the stupidest things in the episode is that Jesus wants to do stand-up, THEN GETS CRUCIFIED THEREAFTER! It's easily the most infamous part of the episode and is nothing but character flanderization on God, since him doing this is out of character and it doesn't make sense in the slightest since he's an extremely powerful being and this is what happens to him, which is the reason why this episode is so hated to begin with.
- The writing in this episode is just so bland and horrible. Nothing of interest ever happens here.
- Many of the other characters in this episode are only used as plot-devices or have nothing to do with the main plot of the episodes aside from the main character and Stewie and Brian, and most of them don't have any screen time at all or are just filler in general, making the episode feel bloated with filler like every other modern Family Guy episode nowadays.
- Some moments might make you want to ragequit this episode mostly due to the high amount of religion bashing and the negative deciption of God that insults the Holy Bible and it's rich history amongst many religious people back then and today, much like the Pip episode from South Park.
- Overall, this episode by far is pointless, bland and stupid and can count as filler, ending season 22 on a rubbish note. It's also an example of why Family Guy will never be as good as it once was and will never recover from it's downfall thanks to Disney refusing to fix any of the problems that happened from Seasons 8-21, making it play safe and reaching it's lowest point with this episode here, which makes Season 22 easily the worst season of the entire show period.
- HORRIBLE ENDING: Even though Brian got punished for what he did, Stewie ends up having to suffer Brian's punishment even though he didn't do anything other than go back and stop Moses from recieving the 10 commandments, and he and Brian having to get thier asses kicked by God who angrily ended up giving them bruises as shown by God preparing to start beating and pounding Stewie and Brian by giving them noogies on this video. .
The Only Redeeming Quality
- Stewie is at least likable here.
Trivia
The title of the episode is a reference to the rock band Faith No More.
