"Road to India"
"The one thing they love more than a hero... is to see a hero fail, fall, die trying. In spite of everything you've done for them, eventually they will hate you. Why bother?" — Norman Osborn, Spider-Man (2002)
Series: Family Guy Part of Season: 14 Episode Number: 20 Air Date: May 22, 2016 Writer: Danny Smith Director: Greg Colton Previous episode: Run, Chris, Run Next episode: The Boys in The Band

"Road to India" is the 20th and final episode of the 14th season of Family Guy. It aired on May 22nd, 2016.

Plot

When Brian falls in love with a tech support worker, he and Stewie travel to India to find her; Lois helps Joe reclaim the spotlight when Peter becomes the center of attention at bingo night.

Why It's a Terrible Road to End a Series of Episodes

1. It was the weakest episode and easily the worst in the series rather than being another Brian and Stewie adventure episode, it's just your typical Brian in a relationship episode disguised as a "Road to..." episode, but with nothing new in it at all, making the episode a really boring chore to get over with.
2. The annoying subplot is Peter getting a new hobby and refusing to give it up, and this time is playing bingo.
   • Speaking of Peter, he is very unlikeable in this episode as he refuses to give Joe his bingo hobby back.
3. The episode overuses Indian stereotypes, making the episode a slightly bit racist.
4. The episode was a terribly underwhelming way to end off, not just Season 14, but the "Road to..." series in general as there hasn't been a single "Road to..." episode after this one.
5. Although some could argue it is funny, it is actually disrespectful to Indians because of how Stewie and Brian pushed the "red button" on their heads.
6. This is also an Islamophobic episode.

Redeeming Qualities

1. Lois, Joe, and Stewie are the only likeable characters.
2. The intro and credits are still decent.
3. Some funny moments here and there.

Reception

The episode has a 7.1/10 rating on IMDb.
