Family Guy: Brian Griffin's Guide to Booze, Broads, and the Lost Art of Being a Man

By Andrew Goldberg

Book Overview

America's favourite uncancelled show made a tremendous comeback with its fourth season in summer 2005. After a three-year hiatus, Family Guy returned triumphant, garnering a second Emmy nomination and rating in the top 5 most watched shows among viewers 18 to 34. After strong sales of Stewie's Guide to World Domination, and strong projections for Family Guy: The Official Episode Guide, we introduce to the reading public Brian Griffin's Guide to Booze, Broads and the Lost Art of Being a Man. From the mouth of the Griffin's bon vivant pooch come words of wisdom--in English mind you. More than just the family dog, Brian is the most learned and eloquent of the family, with insights as sharp as his speech is slurred, and a wit as dry as his martinis. Within this mighty tome he waxes philosophic on unrequited love, the relationship between master and dog, the adult film industry, and just how hard it is for a dog to get a bone.

From Bar Stools Across America...

...comes the observations and opinions of one certain Brian Griffin, a cultured philosopher and recovering alcoholic. This book recalls the style of the show in both its style of writing and in its use of "guest essays" (resembling the cutaways the show is famous -- or infamous -- for). Particularly memorable are thoughts from Stewie (who tries to convince all readers not to follow any advice from "the dog") and a guest essay from Jasper, which is nothing short of hilarious. Overall, if you are a fan of the show and seeking more exploration of Brian's character, this is the book for you. "Family Guy" followers won't be disappointed, and in fact may tend to agree with the many witty statements made by one of the funniest talking dogs ever on television.

Super Funny!

It's a quick and hilarious read. My favorite parts are the "guest essays" from Stewie and Peter. If you're a Family Guy fan, you'll love this book.

Hilarious!
