Griffin listening to the sound of your voice I'd say he's the lucky one number 10 kiss didn't see you come in we're just getting into shape our upcoming tour after Peter finds out that his favorite band is coming to New England for a concert he gets himself in Lois tickets only to discover a harrowing truth Lois doesn't actually like kiss this is a secret he learns when she bombs the lyrics to rock and roll all night [Music] it's not the first time kiss appeared as themselves on the show Paul Stanley and gene Simmons use their voices hysterically in this episode why don't you just sit the corner huh Simmons especially brings in the laughs hilariously brooding through the entire runtime whether he's being disappointed at Ace Frehley stupidity or losing faith in humanity after someone doesn't know the lyrics to a song oh man I've lost all faith in mankind music is dead to me now number 9 Fred Savage who are you Fred Savage wants the cheaped worldwide fame for his role as Kevin Arnold in The Wonder Years but he went in other directions following the show's end Fred Savage in the Family Guy universe however Savage has been acting on a whole other level throughout the years with complex costumes as Michael Moore Tony Danza and Lars Ulrich it's amazing how savage can poke fun at his own less than it used to be acting career and the episode showcases a perfect blend of the pop culture commentary and outlandish humour that Family Guy is known for Wow Fred Savage is the greatest actor in the history of the world that's all I ever wanted people to know number eight Chevy Chase and Dan Aykroyd well mr. Griffin this has been a lot of fun out of him while their performances may have been straighter than you'd expect it's simply amazing to see Ferb here at least these two SNL alums acting beside each other again when the two actors mysteriously move into Cleveland's old house Stewie and Brian become suspicious eventually discovering that the two our spies hired by Ronald Reagan who enlisted their help after watching spies like us so the long and the veiny of it is you're gonna help us out right the situation is whacky enough but the painfully straight way that Aykroyd and chase play the situation makes it even funnier for those of us who are nostalgic for 80s comedy this reunion is a dream come true the activation phrase was something that no one would ever think to utter what is it the phrase is gosh that Italian family at the next table sure is quiet number seven Carol Channing and we're back with Fox celebrity boxing with Mike Tyson and Carol Channing Carol Channing is one of the most prominent theater performers of all time she was inducted into the American theater Hall of Fame has won a Golden Globe and a Tony and has received the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Tony Award so it only makes sense the Family Guy portrays her as a badass boxer right tell me a young man I'm gonna pop you one of course it makes absolutely no sense but that's why it's so funny the fact that the Tony award-winning Channing was 84 years old at the time of recording an episode of Family Guy only proves how awesome and open she is as a performer just make sure you don't end up on her bad side in the future your young people you and your rock and roll 8-track tapes number six Hugh Hefner hey there son mind if I have a seat who knew that Hugh Hefner liked to randomly walk around airports with his Playboy Bunnies after quagmire drowns his sorrows at an airport bar Hef randomly shows up complete with a signature pipe bathrobe and sailors cap he then tells quagmire a touching story about pornographic actor John Holmes his 13-inch member and dying of AIDS you know what he once said he said you know I've got a 13-inch penis and Glenn quagmire is the best damn pilot I've ever seen the totally nonchalant way that Hefner plays this completely bogus and inappropriate story is truly hilarious and it shows that Hefner is not just a businessman and a playboy but a funny man as well excuse me Hef I got a plane to land number five the Star Trek The Next Generation cast I did it the cost of salt Trek The Next Generation is my questions Patrick Stewart can be a really funny guy but with the rest of the Star Trek The Next Generation cast he is even funnier this was the first time in seven years that the cast had all worked together actually it was 19 for Denise Crosby but either way it was well worth the wait but you're a baby yes that's right Denise Crosby Stewie teleports them to his house to hang out with them but they only end up annoying him by acting difficult and childish Patrick don't be an instigator I have to pee Brent take Mike over the bathroom please this includes asking for silly items at McDonald's refusing to pay a buck 54 bowling shoes now why exactly can I not wear my loafers what is the danger there this isn't what anyone was expecting from a reunion but we loved it all the same I have to pee again that's it goodbye number four Ryan Reynolds hi there excuse me I seem to be lost can you guys help me when Reynolds shows up in Rhode Island to film a movie we're in he plays Hitler with a rockin bod Ryan immediately takes an interest in Peter and moves into Cleveland's house across the street then he proceeds to act in an extremely homoerotic manner towards Peter including mentioning his low-hanging pants and engaging in a tickle fight all while desperately pleading for Peter to avoid his ticklish lower abdomen oh my god right now it would be the worst time for you to take on my lower abdomen because it's so exposed because I'm cheering Reynolds is always a good sport and this appearance shows how he always seems to be up for a laugh at his own expense well freeze-frame what's gonna happen next I think I gotta go to the bathroom number three Frank Sinatra jr. Sinatra may not have been as funny as other guest stars but he made a mesmerising impression nonetheless with his terrific voice and animated stage presence but the thing that tops it all is when we swing Sinatra made a few appearances throughout the show's run singing many well-known songs with both Stewie and Brian including second time around and even some originals like at Frank Sinatra's restaurant the line is read with lots of bread and you'll burp up sausages tonight in bed at Frank Sinatra's restaurant Family Guy is well known for its musical numbers but having a legend son as a guest star is even better it fits with the show's penchant for 50 Swing numbers and gave a fantastic performer a chance to shine even if he was animated if you need me I'll be back in Palm Springs which has been completely taken over by the gays number 2 James Woods hi hello everyone James Woods is no stranger to the world of Quahog he's voiced himself for eight episodes throughout the show's run so far in no matter what episode you choose he is always hilarious ooh piece of candy ooh piece of candy ooh piece of candy ooh piece of candy it's simply amazing that one of the show's breakout celebrity guests is someone so totally out of left field and such an unlikely fit with the show's target demographic hey science face I got an F for you it stands for crotchety though he may seem he is clearly a good sport about whatever situation he's put in whether he's following a trail of Reese's Pieces like et or being resurrected via a 17 year old woman's life force hey I'm gonna check back into my hotel Oh screw that you'll stay with me right here come on we'll have a campout in the yard wicked cool before we unveil our number-one pick here are some honorable mentions we now return to Bryan Cranston sneezes thank you hey Doc are we gonna be much longer I got to get some beers with the fellows before I go out on this date number one Adam West prepare to meet your maker at the hands of my cat launcher late Adam West was once known only as Batman but he made his mark in the new millennium with Family Guy by voicing a bizarro version of himself and completely revitalized his career in the process in the show's world he is the bumbling mayor of Quahog and every scene he's in is bound to be one filled with happiness and laughter well time to put on my spaghetti hat West had no barrier regarding the things he would say including showing up in a random sequence with Rob Lowe making him not only the best family guys celebrity star but also one of the show's very best characters period we're big Hollywood actors yeah we are do you agree with our picks check out these other great clips from WatchMojo and subscribe for new videos every day [Music]
