Stewie Griffin might want to discover a new arch nemesis in 2023.
Family Guy‘s midseason finale, which centered round Stewie and Doug (voiced by Chris Parnell) competing for the coveted title of sophistication snack captain, ended with Stewie casually mentioning to Brian that Doug “died in a commuter plane crash this morning.”
As any common Family Guy viewer can attest, the Fox comedy is loaded with jokes that don’t truly occur — like when Quagmire allegedly impregnated his personal father again in 2018, one thing that was by no means spoken of once more.
And even when a personality does die, there’s no assure that it’ll stick. How many instances have we seen Peter killed — both by another person, or by his personal hand — just for him to reappear within the subsequent episode, and even the following scene, as if nothing ever occurred?
But within the case of Parnell’s character, TVLine can formally verify that Doug is now not with us. The midseason finale, titled “The Candidate,” served as his last look on the present. Since his introduction in 2019, Doug has popped up in 13 episodes, a lot to Stewie’s chagrin.
Doug is now a part of a distinguished group of Family Guy characters whose deaths truly caught, one that features Peter’s former boss Mr. Weed, native newswoman Diane Simmons and Cleveland’s ex-wife Loretta.
