Macfarlane must have got tired of doing the voice, killed off Brian in tonights ep. replacement Dog voiced by Paulie from Sopranos lol
he'll be back. He's written into future episodes. There's something about the driver of that car probably or something else. not the end of the story.
No no no no no no no O wait how did he die dident stuie like fuck him up shot him burned him and he still lived to be taken out like that HA
The "out" here is that Stewie in the episode made a statement that he time traveled to Christmas in order to find out what presents he got or something like that. That could tie in around a christmas episode when stewie meets the version of him that time traveled to warn him to save brian.
