I remember my 2nd grade teacher said if you ever end a story with "it was just a dream" you will get an E automatically. Last nights episode was totally worthless

In my grade school (before 5th at least), E was "excellent."

This ending would've gotten an NI ("needs improvement") had it not been for the characters' acknowledgement & the Sopranos reference.

I suppose "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and the movie version of "The Wizard of Oz" were totally worthless as well? (Now that's how it should have ended - when they revealed that it was all a simulation, have a cutaway to a book publisher telling Lewis Carroll that they can't publish "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" becuase it turns out it was all a dream.)

(And any school that gives out E as its lowest grade because some psychobabbler told the school board that giving a student F for "fail" would hurt them psychologically has no business telling anybody about anything. You can call a failing grade A+; it's still a failing grade.)

When those books were written it was an original ending. 60 years later it is a cop out to end something like that and it was obvious the whole episode that none of it was happening which made it a waste of time to watch. Like any viewer with a brain thought they were killing off Cleveland and the character of Stewie would be no more. The whole Merman story of why Lois was alive was as dumb as the dream sequence on Dallas 25 years ago. Yeah I know its just a cartoon but in my opinion it was terrible

I agree. How *dare* they make a cartoon that isn't real!
