Where the Hell….? James Woods

We’ve had James Woods Regional High in our tiny towns since the release of District 4 but it’s taken another 2 and a half years for the man himself to appear in Quahog as part of the current Halloween event, The Hauntening. As well as the James Woods character himself the event also brought us a premium costume for him,  Peter James Woods. But just where have we seen the man and this costume before? Well he’s made quite a few appearances in Family Guy and I’m going to highlight them here.

Where the Hell….? Condom Chris

It would appear Chris is taking a safety first attitude towards all those Halloween ghoulies that are out and about at this time of year. Protected to the max he strutted into our games as part of the latest event to hit our Quahog’s, The Hauntening.


But haven’t we seen this latex lad somewhere before? Yes we have, Condom Chris made his debut in the Family Guy episode Quagmire’s Quagmire, (Series 12, Episode 3).

Where the Hell….? Sheriff Peter

It would appear the long arm of the law just got shorter as Peter pulls on his Sheriff costume in the latest event to hit our Quahog’s, The Hauntening. But haven’t we seen this bumbling Sheriff somewhere before? Yes we have, Sheriff Peter made his debut in the Family Guy episode To Love and Die in Dixie, (Series 3, Episode 12).

Where the Hell….? Salty & Daggermouth

As we’ve been sailing through the latest event to hit our games, Peter’s Booty Haul, we’ve come across some new fun characters, two of these are Salty & Daggermouth. But where have we seen them before?

Where the Hell….? Stu Griffin

A little while back the multiverse transported back into our Quahogs bringing with it some fun new content including another incarnation of my favourite character Stewie Griffin.

This time we got introduced to  Stu Griffin, (I will refer to him as Future Stu from now on), a new playable character we could unlock during the mini event. That is one of the things I love about the multiverse, we get full characters, not skins, thanks for that TinyCo. But where have me met Future Stu  before. Well join me in a journey back in time to 2006 when Stewie Griffin – The Untold Story hit our screens. A trilogy of episodes devoted to my favourite evil baby, and Future Stu  made his appearance in the 3rd of these episodes, Stu & Stewie’s Excellent Adventure.

Where did THOSE come from: Pirate edition

Hello There Clammers!

We’ve got a great post for you today!  One of our readers, zackbender, has graciously submitted a post for his fellow Clammers detailing the back story behind the Pirates in Quahog!  You may have seen Zack around the comments here at Family Guy Addicts, and his Family Guy knowledge never fails to amazing us!  So not surprising we were completely blown away by his post.  So with out further ado…take it away Zack!  Hello fellow Clammers, 

You may have recognized that the “T” in WDTCF has been replaced with a “those” instead of a “that.” So were getting double the trouble? Nope, but we are getting four times the fun with today’s WDTCF!

So what does Long John Peter’s costume, the sea dogs (or pirates) from district five of Quahog, the Jolly Roger (5 clams) and Peter’s pirate car (150 clams) have in common? They all appeared in the season six finale titled: “Long John Peter.” Boy, by the sounds of it Peter is yet again involved in another shenanigan of his. Well let’s find out what that maybe.

Where did THAT come from? The Drunken Clam

Hello Quahogians!

I’m dropping in today to bring you the history of Peter Griffins favourite pub – that’s right, it’s The Drunken Clam!

building_drunkenclam_

The Drunken Clam has had two owners – Horace and Jerome and they usually serve Pawtucket Patriot Beer. Most of the time, it is home to four drinkers – Peter Griffin, Joe Swanson, Glenn Quagmire and Cleveland Brown. Occasionally, Brian Griffin also drinks there.

On to the history of everyones favourite pub!

The Drunken Clam has appeared lots in the history of the show, I’m just going to take you on a journey of some of the most memorable appearances of the pub.

One of the first appearances of the bar was in the episode “One if by Clam, Two if by Sea” when it got hit by a hurricane. It became “The Clam’s Head Pub” and was taken over by a British man named Nigel Pinchley. In that episode, we also learned that Peter had been drinking there since 1977 (That’s 37 years!).

Another episode that The Drunken Clam played an important part in was “Blind Ambition”. It’s first “role” in the episode was when Peter fell off the roof killing Joan Cusack below. Later in the episode, the pub was burned to the ground by none other than God who attempted to impress a woman by lighting her cigarette for her – with a lightning bolt!

In “Meet the Quagmires”, another “arguably supernatural” person appeared at the Clam – Death. His appearance comes after Horace fell of a ladder at the pub, but he was actually just unconscious. It gave Peter the perfect opportunity to ask Death to take him back to the 80’s so he could live life to it’s full extent – in a completely wild way! When Peter returns, he visits the bar as it used to be called back then – “St Elmo’s Clam” (After the song, St Elmo’s Fire). The episode does clash with “One if by Clam, Two if by Sea” because it had the name of “The Drunken Clam” back then too.

The Clam has also made several small appearances such as Peter drunkenly playing the piano in “Wasted Talent”, Joe becoming a table tennis ace in “Hell Comes to Quahog” and the ability for everyone in the bar to survive being shot in “Death is a B****”.

An influential episode for the pub was “Save the Clam” when Horace sadly passed away. This left Peter and the team trying to find a new owner for the pub who eventually became Jerome.

So the Drunken Clam is usually the “home” for drama if it isn’t set at the Griffin household. I hope my history on The Clam had helped you, and I’ll be back in the future for more “Where did that come from’s”

Keep Questing,

Where did that come from? The Founding Father Restaurant

Hello there Quahogians! (Do you like that better than clammers?)

I’m here today to bring you a where did that come from on our brand new Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff game. There are lots of buildings, characters and decorations that have a strong resemblance to the TV show, and I’m going to bring you the history of them. Today, I am going to bring you the history of “The Founding Father Restaurant”.

building_foundingfathersrestaurant_

 

The Founding Father does not actually appear as much in Family Guy as you would expect. It makes it’s debut in the episode “Finders Keepers” (S12:E11) where the waitor of the restaurant tells Stewie that his placemat is a treasure mat, and Peter stops at nothing to find the “treasure”. When he eventually “gives up” Lois directs him to the Drunken Clam where he finds, behind a painting of Miles “Chatterbox” Musket (the founder of Quahog), an expired coupon for the Founding father. That is the only appearance that the restaurant make is the TV series. Now on to the game.

In the game, The Founding Father Restaurant enters the game with Bruce (A post about Bruce will be covered soon). The message that it gives when you are waiting for the money and XP, is “Microwaing Entrees…” and it generates $30 and 20XP over a four hour period.

I think that that’s all on The Founding Father Restaurant, I can’t wait until next time to bring you another post! In the meantime, Keep Questing!
