8. The Entire Cookie Store Episode (With One Exception)
Episode: Baking Bad Family Guy is usually good for at least two or three decent laughs in an episode, which is what makes "Baking Bad" such a stand-out in all the wrong ways. It's perhaps one of the only episodes that you can sit through with barely a chuckle, and a sign of the show's overall decline (mimicking the path the show it is most often compared to, The Simpsons, took). "Baking Bad" sees Peter and Lois opening their own cookie store, Peter's Wife's Cookies. To boost sales, Peter hires a bunch of hot girls, and before long, the cookies are forgotten and the girls are stripping. That's it. That's pretty much the episode. The subplot with Stewie getting drunk off cough syrup wasn't great either. The only funny moment is another appearance from the Cookie Monster at the end of the episode. Until that, a laugh was nary to be found with a roomful of people watching the episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVsULMhA-ds This doesn't quite qualify as a joke, but given how bad it was, it has earned its place here, as you could take several jokes from the episode and include them here.
