Last night as I watched the new episode of Family Guy I was under the impression that Brian dying was just a little unfunny joke. It wasn't until I saw on my twitter feed which made me realize that Brian will no longer be on Family Guy. My initial thought was why would they do this? Then I thought why do I care?
Why did Family Guy kill off one of their main characters? Well the only logical explanation is to create publicity so that people would be talking about it. Let's face it Family Guy has been around for a while and changing things up seemed to be necessary. The writers of Family Guy wasted no time and already a new dog named Vinny is now in the Griffin family.
It should be noted that The Simpsons also talked about killing off a main character. Maybe once again Family Guy is "borrowing" ideas from The Simpsons.
Now as the cartoon continues Stewie no longer has his best friend. It should be interesting what the writers decide to do with this new scenery. Whats even more interesting is that their has now been two dogs with the ability to communicate with humans on the show.
Brian was a classic character and even though its just a cartoon, its sad to see this happen. Watch the video below for a classic Brian Griffin moment

Saying Goodbye to The Simpsons
It's kind of tough to write a piece on a TV show that has been on this earth longer than I have been breathing. The Simpsons has been around since 1989!
It has yet to be confirmed officially, however, there has been a lot of speculation that this will in fact be the last season ever for the Simpson family. Some people might react to this news and be shocked that the show is still on the air, others may react a little differently... I literally saw someone tear up. However you take the news it is amazing that a TV series has been able to go this long. It really has made the impossible, possible.
Not only is it impressive that the show has been on for so long but how about the wide demographic of fans. Fans can be as young as a 3 year old just interested in the bright colors or the old person who enjoys it because of the references that they can understand. The Simpsons is a show that everyone can watch and relate to at some level, which is every writers dream to accomplish.
The writers of the show seem to want to spice things up as they say farewell. If you didn't hear I hate to be the one to tell you but apparently one of the main characters in The Simpsons will die in the last season! It's sad to hear that and it's also sad that this effects me so deeply. I mean who can the writers kill, not Homer, not Bart, not Maggie!
The Simpsons is a classic show and will be forever apart of pop culture. It has made it's mark on all of it's fans and inspired many other shows that are currently higher in ratings.
