After Principal Skinner is fired, his replacement (Francis McDormand) splits the school into two, one for boys and one for girls. Lisa, unhappy with her new education, masquerades as a boy.

Family Guy
Three new eipsodes and a 90-minute season finale that's going to sound very familiar to fans who saw Stewie Griffin -- The Untold Story on DVD. First, Brian's gay cousin decides to wed, and Brian becomes a crazed activist trying to get Mayor West to overturn the ban on gay marriage.
Then the Griffin family's house, which happens to have an Indian burial ground in the backyard, goes "Poltergeist," causing Stewie to be sucked into the television Carol Anne-style.
Later, the Griffins are robbed, and hide out in the panic room. To pass the time, Peter relates the events in world history that explain the Griffin name.
In the 90-minute season finale, Stewie travels to San Francisco to meet a man he believes to be his father.
