You Can't Handle the Booth!
Episode 16 of Family Guy season 17 (S17E16), the 325th Family Guy episode overall. Written by Damien Fahey and directed by Greg Colton. First broadcast on 24 March 2019.
Story
The Griffins sit down to record a DVD commentary track for an episode of Family Guy. During the recording, Lois learns that Peter was married before and that Chris may be another man's son. She walks out and calls the marriage finished. The programme's versions of Seth MacFarlane and the rest of the cast then join the family and reveal that all of them are fictional. Lois comes back, takes the point that none of them are real and that they may as well make what they can of it, and patches things up with Peter and the children.
