Family Guy can afford Black Betty by Ram Jam

From the Family Guy episode Cootie & the Blowhard
(Season 20 Episode 6)

[fablethewolf]

I feel like they could afford what Lois wanted, Peter just wanted to sing black Betty. He’s having way too much fun with it.

[tabithacourtney]

The animation of the way Peter moves while singing Black Betty is pretty smooth and impressive.

[GanonGhidorah]

Something about the smoothness of Peter's animation during the dancing is...quite unsettling.

[ClassicGuy]

Fun Fact: It costs roughly $2 Million to make an episode of Family Guy.

I’m sure they could afford Lois’ song, but Peter just wanted to sing. I get it.

[Cloud-zblw]

They can’t “afford it” yet they have enough to give Peter that smooth animation when he dances.

[TheReviewingNetwork]

Apparently they could afford it because it's the second time this year they've used Black Betty

[perkystream]

They couldn’t afford the song because the rest of the episode budget went into peter’s dancing animation, I mean just look at how smooth it is!

[TrainHunterYT]

Lois: "What can we afford."
Stewie: "NO LOIS DON'T!"
Peter: "BIRD BIRD BIRD!"

[RetroReviewsMovies]

This scene shows that despite the fact that 90 percent of the time, Family Guy’s animation is very dull and lifeless, they can still animate really well if they wanted to.

[JustAnAccountLmao]

Peter just wanted to sing that 😭😭 look at the fun he’s having

[NeoLocket]

Peter singing black Betty would go perfectly with struggling on a game you’ve been trying to beat for 3 days

[ghstpla]

The way Peter dances is the only proper way to dance to Black Betty by Ram Jam.

[swahilimaster]

They can afford it because it's free unless it's actually Ram Jam's exact version, Black Betty is an old work song, and has recordings as far back as the 30's.

[radiantblack]

Brian already sang that once, on the episode "Customer of the Week".. I'm sure they probably could've afford what Lois wanted to do..

[AlfredoPuente]

Peter spent all the budget in his dance animation.

[RLSteffler]

They should have made a joke like, "didn't we already use that recently?"
"Yeah it was on sale"

[mynameisstilljafo]

I'm surprised Peter didn't sing a certain ornithological piece...a song about the mass awareness of a certain avian variety....

[Doknot-tbey]

I was laughing so hard when Peter was singing the song. I wish you would have shown the scene where Peter was singing the song with Brian and Stewie there, and the doctors were clapping and dancing to the song.

[leathercollar]

Peter's smile at 0:16 is so cute!

[RaikaSTi]

this is gonna be the next family guy meme song in future episodes. just watch
