C'mon, you know you've been eagerly awaiting the day when Stewie and Brian would meet Data and Worf. And now that day is here!

Sunday's new Family Guy (9 p.m. ET, Fox) has our favorite homicidal tot transporting the cast of Star Trek: The Next Generation to his humble Quahog home. Yes, all the cast members of that '80s fave make it so.

Family Guy doesn't always impress us -- too many gags are simply scattershot and/or scatalogical -- but when animator Seth MacFarlane's show clicks, it's screams. And it's never better than when he's attacking pop culture (with a vengeance).

BTW, if you haven't seen MacFarlane's completely creepy Hulu commercial -- Mr. Many Voices makes an even ickier alien mutant than Alec Baldwin does -- watch below.

Diane Werts

Diane Werts has been glued to the tube since she can remember, growing up in a household where the TV came on first thing in the morning and stayed on till bedtime and beyond. She worked for the USA Film Festival, then for The Dallas Morning News writing about everything from Shakespeare to macrame art to rock music (and has the hearing loss to prove it). She moved to New York's Newsday to edit their glossy TV magazine, then returned to writing about television, specializing in its stranger permutations. She's a past president of the Television Critics Association.
