Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes and Michael Dorn both performed guest voices last Sunday on FOX's Family Guy in a parody of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

In the episode "Peter's Got Woods", Stewart, Frakes and Dorn voiced Picard, Riker and Worf respectively as the captain and first officer made fun of the Klingon. Here is a transcript of some of the dialogue:

Picard: "Number One...let me ask you something. If I whispered in your ear that Commander Worf's head looks like a fanny, would you join me in a laugh?"
Riker: "Yeah, I could get in on that."
Picard: "All right, here it comes: Commander Worf's head looks like a fanny!"
Crew: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Worf: "You can both suck my ridges!"
Picard: "Oh, get a sense of humor!"

At his blog, Wil Wheaton described this week's episode as "one of the greatest things I've ever seen on television" and he screamed out loud to see his character, Wesley Crusher. "The thing that's awesome, (and unintentional, I'm sure) is that the image here is exactly what it was like when I worked on TNG back in the day," he said. "We're all laughing, having a great time, and Michael Dorn hates his Klingon forehead."

As previously reported, the Family Guy direct-to-DVD movie Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story includes a Deep Space Nine parody in which Rene Auberjonois voices Odo in a sequence involving Stewie's "Cousin Quark."

Stewart also performed a voice role in American Dad this weekend, another show created by Seth MacFarlane.

More information about Family Guy is available at the show's official web site. A list of guest stars is available at the Internet Movie Database.
