About
Peter Watches The Ring is a scene, which inspired to make parody videos on YouTube associated with the snowclone X kills Peter Griffin or Peter Watches X in the video titles.
Origin
The footage comes from the second episode called "Mother Tucker" on season 5 of FOX's animated TV series "Family Guy", that was first released on September 17, 2006.
At the beginning of the episode the family are attending the Airshow in Quahog and are shown to be anxiously awaiting one of the pilots to crash. When the pilot landed, Peter expresses his Boredom and would rather watch the tape of The Ring at home. But before Peter put the cassette on the player, a woman was warning him watching this because it would kill him. Peter didn't believe her, so he played the video but there was showing the 1987 film Mannequin and it has the same effect as the cursed tape.
After 2 years, a parody of this scene was made by YouTube user "wzl63" with the title "peter griffin watch is child,s play 3", which was uploaded on June 22nd, 2008 featuring a footage of the horror movie "Child's Play 3".
