First broadcast on 10 July 2025. ## Story Reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to Stewie, Brian finds the text rewritten to be more progressive, and Lois admits her campaign group did it. His protest brings a Fox News interview that turns his words around, and the attention makes a bestseller of his old novel. Meanwhile Peter and his friends marry each other on two drunken nights and give up alcohol. Sober, they find they have nothing else in common and split up. Lois stages an intervention to get Peter drinking again. At a reading, both sides of the argument agree that Brian's book is badly written and ban it. ## Facts | Fact | Detail | | --- | --- | | Season | 23 | | Episode | 17 of 18 | | Overall | No. 443 | | Code | S23E17 | | First aired | 10 July 2025 | | Directed by | Mike Kim | | Written by | Evan Waite | | Source | Wikipedia: Family Guy season 23 | | IMDb | tt36996152 | | Verification | Checked against IMDb: title, year, numbering and credits agree | | US viewers | 0.57 million | ## Voices | Voice | Characters | | --- | --- | | Seth MacFarlane | Peter Griffin, Brian Griffin, Stewie Griffin | | Alex Borstein | Lois Griffin | | Seth Green | Chris Griffin | | Mila Kunis | Meg Griffin | | Mike Henry | Bruce the Performance Artist | | Patrick Warburton | Joe Swanson | | Arif Zahir | Cleveland Brown | | Carlos Alazraqui | Jax | | Steve Callaghan | Liberal #3 | | Gary Cole | Principal Shepherd | Principal voice credits as recorded by IMDb, which lists up to ten credits per episode, so recurring characters can be missing here.
