[Spoiler Alert] Last night on Family Guy, Brian was hit by a car and, well, died. Like, dead died. He didn’t come back via time travel or dream sequence. The Griffins even got a new dog (voiced by The Sopranos’ Tony Sirico) because, as executive producer Steve Callaghan told E!, “By losing Brian, it felt like a void needed to be filled both comically, and also for the interpersonal relationships between all the characters.â€Â It’s hard to believe, partly because Brian and Stewie’s friendship was still one the show’s most consistently funny relationships and partly because this sure seems like a joke Family Guy would pull on its audience. Watch his deathbed scene and vomit-filled tribute below. R.I.P.
