Birregrande Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I agree Family Guy is bollox - a very poor rip-off of the yellow family in Springfield. South Park is still the best - with the classic Beavis & Butthead a very close second. IMHO of course...... http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=BHq2gwoYphw&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake Plissken Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Had this thread been posted a few weeks ago I would have disagreed with you while conceding that the last few seasons have been poor. However, that was before I saw some of Season 7. Now its slipped into the sea of $hyte and there is no coming back, the first few seasons (1-3) had been gold. I kept watching thereafter in the hope it would pick up again but aside from the occasional good episode it never really did. I was almost finished with Family Guy after the "Petarded" episode which was so bad I felt insulted watching it. I gave it another chance and while it never really redeemed itself it never plummeted to those depths either. Then came season 7. I watched the episode with "new Brian" and when he treated Peter to a song about liking farts I knew I was done with Family Guy, I switched off there and then. Unsubtle, unfunny, uninspired garbage. Just like the Simpsons I cannot bear to watch something that used to be good become so terrible. Like the Simpsons, Family Guy seems to have run out of ideas but due to its huge popularity will carry on and get worse and worse. Farewell old friend.

sked21 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Family Guy is the shizzle. Season 7 is on the Christmas list. Same. It is the damage. Along with Arrested Development the best comedy shows around at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonCleaner Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 i liked the first three series or so but just started to get a bit bored of it. South Park is the far better option. agree with the simpsons stuff that has been said, hard to watch it now knowing how brilliant the old stuff is.

Darren Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Family Guy is great. Who cares if the storyline is pap? There's always a really, really sick joke just around the corner. And that makes me pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try Drawn Together, American Dad or most anime out there (specifically Samurai Champloo) and you're sorted. South Park is still pretty solid imho too.

:shitwine: Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 The first 3 seasons go up there with some of the best programmes ever, but season 4 onwards (including the movie) have been an inconsistent mess. Sometimes they have been enjoyable (season 5 is very good), but there are huge weaknesses. I prefer American Dad to later Family Guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generic Username Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 One of the funniest shows to come on TV in the last 10 years. Personally the latter series, 4 onwards aren't as good as 1 to 3 but it's still a stonker of a show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. The same can be said for South Park, Beavis and Butthead and any other US cartoons not mentioned already.

Maximus Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Nah, I can't stand it either. People slate Little Britain for being lazy, crude and relying too much on slapstick and catchphrases yet the smae folk love Family Guy, it's basically the same sort of infantile humour but because it has a talking dog it's genius. It is the cartoon equivalent of the Scary Movie series. The writers don't understand satire so they just react things with stupid voices. Also, as I have said before, they pretty much ripped-off the Stewie character from How to be a little s*d - which was actually funny, unlike FG. I pretty much agree with Taylor, it's success seems to be the result of some sort of cultish/bandwagon mentality, it's certainly not based on the quality of the show. Futurama is 10,000 times superior in every way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
