Over the years, "Family Guy" has made jokes to the detriment of some respected names in popular culture. George Lucas, Quentin Tarantino and Agatha Christie are all knife and cut into comic pieces. One big name spent by Seth McFarlane's show was Steven King, who in the 15th episode of Season 7 (one of the best seasons of the series)He paid tribute to the author with a short anthology in "Three Kings".

The episode saw Peter Griffin (Seth McFarlane) sitting by the fire that passed through three of Steven King's beloved stories, as everyone receives the "Family Guy" treatment: "Stand by me", "Misery" and "Shoashank". . The problem is that every segment starring some of the best of Quachog is taken from book -based films, not the books themselves. Peter may say he made a journey to the library, but he seems to have headed for a blockbuster instead. (Remember those?)

As a result, the segments that make up "three kings" do not have the same key elements that they never made from page to picture when each of the appropriate stories received the treatment with a large screen. If Peter had gone by the book, he might have allowed the "family -guy" to rely on the level of vulgarity and find even more than usual.

One of the biggest points of conspiracy that is skimmed in the episode "Family Guy" and "Stand by Me", the adaptation of Steven King's novel "The Body" is in the last act. Initially, Chris Chambers, not his best friend of proud, is the one who pulls Ace's gun in the original story, cementing that the "family Guy" episode replies the films, not the books they are. There are also added details that in the "Family Guy" version of "The Shawshank Redemption", Cleveland (Mike Henry before Arif Zahir replaced him) It is filled as a red, the character played by Morgan Freeman in the film Frank Darperant. The difference in the book is that the red is named as such because of its red hair and is a pale Irishman. (Accidentally, that's the reason why Morgan Freeman read only one page to King's original story when adjusting the film.)

Finally, there are details about the sheriff in "Misery", which, "Three Kings" were taken from the book instead of the film, would have much more comedic ammunition that would use Jo Swanson (Patrick Warburton). In this segment, OEO is the sheriff who approaches Brian's discovery holds Stevie (both expressed by McFarlin). Like the film, he was quickly killed by the hostage after being shot. In the book, however, he meets a far more frightening end when she drives him over him with his driving lawn. If the writers' room "Guy's Family" looked at only the original material, the audience might have had even greater, biting to laugh at OEO's costs.
