“North by North Quahog,” Season 4, Episode 1, Original Airdate:  5/1/05

MacFarlane: Our first episode back from cancellation. It was a comedic riff on a Hitchcock classic, complete with a Bernard Herrmann score. This is the type of whip-smart, nuanced writing I was capable of 10,000 drinks ago.
Sulkin: In the first joke, Peter rattles off the names of all the shows that had to die for us to come back.
