T.C. on Family Guy (sort of)

#1 Post by N1095A »

In the most recent episode of Family Guy "Big man On Hippocampus", There is a reference to Robin Williams' manager pretending Williams is still funny. The scene flashes to the agent's office where he's on the phone with Williams. As the scene pans across the agent's office there photos of celebs on the wall, presumed to be the agent's other clients. One of the pictures is clearly T.C. wearing the VMO2 cap.

I saw the episode but entirely missed the picture! I need to pay better attention because I always miss small stuff lke that. This could also be another reason I suck at picking out flubs, and at Carmen's quote game. It's like I have ADD without actually having ADD.

Dervish, thanks for the screen shot! I guess McFarlane really is a MPI fan!

Family Guy's version of T.C./Mosley makes him look like he's related to Cleveland Brown!

Wouldnt It be great if they did an entire episode with the Magnum characters? :P

That would be awesome. It would be as funny as the FAMILY GUY Star Wars parodies!

haha, I missed this one...

They spoof a lot of the 80's and retro shows. I really like the episode "Brian Goes Back to College" where they did a big big big spoof of the A-Team.
Here's where they spoof the intro...

I wonder who the other picture is supposed to be? Walter Koenig perhaps?
Haha! Love that Family Guy A-Team-intro spoof! Cleveland Brown as B.A. Baracus! :lol:

Haha, or that jeep-crash at the end... with Peter falling out the jeep and instead of being heavenly injured, he only graps his knee 'aauch'...

OT:
It happened to a lot of the badguys in the real show :) I remember seeïng a helicopter explode when it crashed to an mountain. Next shot, we see the badguys climbing out of the wreck, haha. But I still love to watch the show.

Now you have my curiosity up. I would have guessed it was Adam Sandler, but taking into account the MacFarlane mind, Walter Koenig is a much better guess.....LOL!

I was wondering who it was as well and come to the conclusion it was Matthew Fox from LOST.
