Wow. Here's a good idea: Let's take a really lazy idea and stretch it out for thirty minutes. Sound good? Fuck yeah.
For God's sake, MacFarlane is becoming more and more pathetic with each crapisode he pushes out of his chunky ass. Now that the presidential election is over, it isn't hard to see what MacAttack's agenda is. Plain and simple, it's a full-throttled attack on organized religion, especially Christianity. MacFarlane is to indoctrination what Nietzsche was to philosophy: He takes the most obvious opposing arguments to whatever it is he may be debating, and claims them as his own. Now, don't get things twisted when I compare Fatass McGee to Nietzsche; he, in no way, will ever be on that level. MacFarlane will be remembered as the chubby dude who made America's youth fucking retarded. Know this.
Getting back to the episode: Are we really surprised? I can't say that I am. They took ideas that could have been funny and turned them into piles of excrement. To the writing staff's credit, there were a few times I laughed. The universe of deceiving images was clever. Outside of that, everything else was forgettable. Overall, let's hope that this episode is a sign on things to come, as it will lead us to the inevitable end of the stupidest show on the fucking planet.

I think I'm one of the only animation fans out there who was not really impressed with the Disney spoof in this episode. Sure it looked kind of neat (compared to the typical cheap crappy art on Family Guy anyway), but ultimately it was a waste of talent for a show that's been painfully unfunny for years.
I was amused by the part of the episode where Brian claims that because Christianity didn't exist in one of the universes, it became more scientifically advanced. Seth must not have paid much attention in history class, or he might have known the Church largely invented the concept of universities, the scientific method, and many other things vital to modern civilization. Even during the so-called Dark Ages, no less. Atheism (at least Brian's variety, which is unfortunately quite popular) seems to have always been more about philosophical navel-gazing than a true interest in science or progress.
And to think, institutions of higher learning such as Harvard allow this laughable anti-intellectual to speak to their graduating classes.
Aside from that nonsense, MacFarlane contradicts himself in an ironic fashion. The atheistic universe may have had flying cars, but it was also full of mindless hedonism, vile misogyny, and a disrespect for nature in the form of fashionable eugenics. The implication here is that a world without religion is doomed to fall into complete moral darkness and decay. Way to subvert your own message, MacFarlane!
At one point this show was at least somewhat more than just a political bus for the liberal agenda. To bad Mcfarlane is ignorant of the history of state atheism. Wait, he's a liberal douche. Must have gotten his history from another liberal douche. I mean the history of state atheism alone would tell anyone that could connect dot (A) to dot (B) that a history without Christianity wouldn't have faired any better. Still credit to the Disney segment.
