Well it happened, The Simpsons and Family Guy finally crossed over.
The Griffins end up in Springfield while on a road trip and meet the Simpsons.

I actually enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would, and I was already expecting to enjoy it. It did seem a little more balanced to the FG side of things, but I kinda expected that as it was part of “Family Guy” rather than part of “The Simpsons” or a standalone special. But overall, I thought it worked pretty well.
I got a huge kick out of all the little nods to both series, and the appearances of characters from not only those series but a couple of others. I was also laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe at the car wash bit.
I liked it overall, and found it to be a loving (albeit typically snarky for ‘Family Guy’) tribute to the series that helped to inspire it.
I also liked the cameo appearance of the Judge, a bit which had me rolling.
That was a pretty great cameo.
Better without Family Guy which I never really liked. I’ve always blamed (overrated) McFarlane for Futuramas cancellation. The Cleveland show was the best of the bunch.
