acorncheese
02.11.11 | YEAH....
I USED TO LIKE THIS SHOW....
WHEN I WAS IN 8TH GRADE AND THERE WERE ONLY THREE SEASONS
I don't know if it was because I was young, or if the show only started sucking when they revived it years later. |
qwe3
02.11.11 | show was never that good |
acorncheese
02.11.11 | It's absolute garbage. |
Puzzles
02.11.11 | Was never that good? HAHA |
qwe3
02.11.11 | yeah it was never that good it's always been average |
Captain North
02.11.11 | I've generally found Family Guy a lot funnier to hear other people talk about than to actually watch. |
Puzzles
02.11.11 | I can't agree with either of you, but andcas is totally right. They're going down the Simpsons road
now, I reckon.
Edit: OMG 1000 COMMENTS! |
sniper
02.11.11 | except the simpsons has always been far superior to family guy.
i like both though. |
Edwin
02.11.11 | I liked it better when I was in the minority when dissing Family Guy. |
DinoX
02.11.11 | Family Guy is a fucking horrendous show- poor, loose plot and redundancy out the wazoo. |
WhiteWallStargazers
02.11.11 | South Park all the way |
SCREAMorphine
02.11.11 | Simpsons already did it, and at least South Park can still draw some laughs lol |
kygermo
02.11.11 | Yeah I agree. Family Guy has become too political as well. Nobody gives a flying fuck that Brian is a staunch liberal, get to the laughs!
Besides that, Ive been on a classic Simpsons kick lately (seasons 1-10) and it is absolute GOLD! |
TheJackal
02.11.11 | first 3 seasons were actually awesome
then they just kind of ran out of ideas |
qwe3
02.11.11 | yeah the first few seasons were tolerable but then ugh
although the multiple dimensions one was good |
jingledeath
02.11.11 | don't like this season so i've stopped following it |
KILL
02.11.11 | seasons 1 and 2 were the only ones i really liked
stewie rules hard though |
Jesuslaves
02.11.11 | FG was at it's peak in seasons 3-5. 6 and 7 were okay but definitely lesser, last season was tepid with a few good episodes, but this season is a debacle. It seems like Peter's only role nowadays is to serve up a few smart-ass lines in the beginning of the episode and serve up at least one non-funny pop culture reference later. Chris and Meg are ghosts. Stewie's act has run its course (although he was funny as hell in the christmas special). Brian needs a long long loooooong break from the show, he's wrecking every episode he has more than a couple lines in, and it seems like every other show is devolving into some bullshit about his political stance, world opinions, or his worthless love life.
I think Cleveland not being around is a part of the problem too. I didn't think I'd miss him when he was taken off, but turns out he was a real glue guy for Peter's group (always the funniest characters), and the few scenes they have together anymore are pretty lukewarm without him. I want Bruce and Herbert back too.
Come to think of it 2010-11's just been a bad year overall for TV. |
KILL
02.11.11 | ^ boardwalk empire and breaking bad say otherwise
agree with what you say about family guy though |
qwe3
02.11.11 | yeah tv has gotten so kickass. so many good shows on |

02.11.11 | i was more referring to broadcast TV instead of what's on HBO and showtime and stuff, since i don't have those. |
bloc
02.11.11 | The show is now vulgar for no reason |
WeepingBanana
02.11.11 | yeah old family guy was definitely better. like season 2 and 3. although newer episodes can be funny at points |
Inveigh
02.11.11 | the Star Wars parodies are the only good things they've done lately
on a side note, how the fuck did Fox manage to trade American Dad and King of the Hill for the Cleveland Show and Bob's Burgers? what a fucking awful switch |
MO
02.11.11 | "although the multiple dimensions one was good"
Did anyone here ever see the multiple dimension Duckman episode. That was so awesome. |
jingledeath

MO
02.11.11 | family guy always sucked. It was funny for a bit but then it just got boring. Reusing the same gags, unnecessary gags at that |
TheJackal
02.11.11 | ''family guy always sucked''
shut up |
Urinetrouble
02.11.11 | you wanna know what sucks just as much as family guy? south park. those new episodes are cringe worthy |
UnnamedOcean
02.11.11 | It's good for some laughs, but family guy isn't anything more than comedy for 16 year olds.
The Naked Gun. Now that's comedy. |

02.12.11 | show was never that good [2]
if you're seriously watching family guy instead of watching the first 8 seasons of the simpsons, please fix that. |

02.12.11 | south park is pretty bad too yeah

02.12.11 | pretty sure people have already said this but i'm not reading through the thread so yeah
show never was any good |
Yazz_Flute
02.12.11 | I thought the most recent season of South Park was really fucking good actually. The Coon trilogy not as much but the Inception parody and the shake-weight episodes were great. |
thatoneguy726
02.12.11 | Family Guy is hilarious. Except they come up with the jokes first, then come up with a story they can string them together with, so it's kind of crappy that way. Well, sometimes they don't even string them together, resulting in flashbacks that have NOTHING to do with what's happening. |
wyankeif1337
02.12.11 | hence the manatees |

02.12.11 | show was never very funny |

02.12.11 | nah south park stopped being funny in 2007 |
Inveigh
02.12.11 | south park stopped being funny in about 2007 but then got funny again in 2010. it was also not really funny for the first 3 or 4 seasons
i mean i loved family guy like 8 years ago when it was only on adult swim and i had just begun smoking weed, but now it's just another mediocre comedy on television |
Crymsonblaze
02.12.11 | It's gotten more hit-or-miss recently. It used to be pretty consistently funny.
It's really about as funny as South Park now I'd say. One episode will be pretty hilarious, and then there will be one that doesn't make me laugh at all. |
Gorification
02.12.11 | some episodes are duds, they still make a good one now and then though.
the one where brian and stewie got stuck in the vault and brian ate stewie's shit was the worst episode of family guy ive seen. |

02.12.11 | I still think the skit with Brian and Stewie talking to each other over walkie talkies while renovating a house is one of the funniest skits ever. |

02.13.11 | I loved the Simpsons Movie. And yes, new Family Guy is disgustingly horrible. What else is new? |

4 was still funny with a different brand of humor
5 was meh
6-present are pretty bad |

You got older and developed a better sense of humor, that's what happened. |

02.13.11 | No, the jokes are actualy much worse, and the plots are terrible. I can watch the old ones and laugh, whenever I watch the new ones it just makes me sad. |

Could never like Family Guy because it always reminded me of the dumbasses who just had to incorporate it into every other sentence that they spewed.

02.13.11 | I loathed the ep. where "The bird was the word;" It definitely wasn't funny and almost seems like they were trying to hook younger (pretreen?) audiences to the show. |

No, I was watching pretty much all through seasons 2-6 over the Christmas holidays and laughed my ass off at every episode. It's just that these new ones suck balls. |
