Season 8 continues pushing boundaries with episodes like “Road to the Multiverse,” which showcases alternate animation styles and dimensions. Brian and Stewie’s relationship is more central than ever, especially in their travel episodes. Peter’s antics involve absurd plots like marrying another man for health insurance. The humor becomes more surreal and satirical. Some emotional stories peek through the chaos, especially in episodes involving Lois and Brian. Cutaway gags become even more rapid-fire and sometimes nonsensical. Meg remains a target of relentless ridicule. Despite criticism of declining quality, the show remains a cultural staple. 1718
