Post by: TVC15 on February 18, 2009, 09:36:47 PM: I'd take Full House, SBTB, Roseanne, or even Friends over this shit. How is this popular?

there's no context on family guy

Post by: Madrun Badrun on February 18, 2009, 09:38:47 PM: I mean even more out of context. Family guy is random but expected because it's family guy that's the context.

Post by: Oblivion on February 18, 2009, 09:55:26 PM: I literally cannot think of another adult comedy show (or hell comedy show in general) that employs such revolting gimmicks like artificial joke lengthening and random non sequiturs that require absolutely no talent or ability the way FG does.

MS has pretty great health insurance. I thought hospitals were all about kicking you out ASAP,but I have beenhere for 2 days where nothing at all has happened.

So, great health insurance, shitty US health care system. If I have awesome insurance, I should get priority over poor people that have cancer and shit. If they are going to treat health care like capitalism, it's only right that they should do it to the hilt.

Which would you guys rather watch: Current Simpsons or Family Guy?

P.S. Remember, King of the Hill got shitcanned to make room for a family guy spin off. So basically when The Simpsons finally ends it's run all Fox will have left is Seth MacFarlane(100% Douche) shows.

Edit: Wilco could write better TV.

Family Guy killed off King of the Hill? Well, I guess I have to respect it somewhat now.
Title: Re: Jesus the Family Guy is terrible
Post by: EmCeeGrammar on February 19, 2009, 12:51:14 AM: I understand why its terrible but its a guilty pleasure of mine. Haven't watched it in a few months. Wouldn't care if it got cancelled, but it has its moments. Robot Chicken is exactly what Family Guy is but it doesn't pretend to have a plot. Its really about how the material is presented and Robot Chicken succeeds for that type of humor.

On an unrelated note I don't think alot of you know what Asperger's is. Alot of ASD peeps are humorless...oh I get it now, carry on.
Title: Re: Jesus the Family Guy is terrible
Post by: Phoenix Dark on February 19, 2009, 12:54:06 AM: Pre-cancellation the show was awesome. That being said it was always pretty hit and miss, just back then the hits were much better and the misses weren't mind numbingly distinguished mentally-challenged. Like they are now

I had a friend who'd do this all the time... and i never watched the show... so he'd quote the show and I'd think it was an actual statement, then he'd laugh as ask if I've ever seen that episode, and I'd always say no...

we're not friends anymore

The worst part of Family Guy are the plots and the characters. If it was just a bunch of unrelated vignettes like Robot Chicken it would be better and probably have the same rate of funny. It's also too damn long which is my problem with that new Adult Swim show, Look Around You.

I didn't praise Family Guy. I was merely appreciating the demise of King of the Hill. King of the Hill sucks, and Family Guy sucks slightly less.
Title: Re: Jesus the Family Guy is terrible
Post by: brawndolicious on February 19, 2009, 06:22:07 PM: I guess you have to know the backstory to the characters. The fact that a lot of the characters seem possible in reality is what makes it funny for me. It's not just slapstick like South Park or FG or whatever.
