I'm not a huge fan of Family guy, but maybe because it was the French version! What channels in the UK/France will it be aired on?

Yeah, and if you thought Family Guy was an overrated piece of crap, you would be right. American Dad is, unbelievably, even worse.

Yeah, Family Guy is one of the greatest cartoons ever made, right after the Simpsons, Futurama, King of the Hill, Beavis and Butthead, Daria, Tiny Toon Adventures, Looney Toons, Rocky and Bullwinkle, virtually any Disney cartoon . . .

Please, not even close. Family Guy is a random hodge-podge of stupid gags thrown together in the vain hope that something would be funny.

Please shut up.


If you don't like the Family guy, good for you. Let the people who like the show post in this thread without having to read through your turd like posts.

Family guy was ace! At times it was even more ingenius than the simpsons.

Brondbyfan
04-08-2004, 07:19:AM
At no point was Family Guy ever better than the Simpsons when that show was in its prime. Family Guy may at times be more ingenious than the recent Simpsons but so what, that's like me bragging that right now in 2004 I can run faster than Roger Bannister. He's 75 ****in' years old.

The Simpsons is simply the greatest cartoon ever made. I would put Family Guy above any Disney Cartoon though!

dude if you hate Family Guy so much, why'd you even post in this thread? i respect the opinion, but you're just coming off full force thinking you're liberal or something. these people including me probably wont change how we think about that show.


heres my opinion, who gives a flying **** about the simpsons golden age? if family guy is being ingenius, its entertaining people. its not like we're working for either company who makes those shows anyhow.

04-08-2004, 07:30:AM
in what ******* universe is king of the hill better then family guy? a show about a familiy living in texas... not funny, not dramatic, not scary, it doesn't fall into any category. why is it taking up airtime??

Why did I post in this thread? Because I watched the American Dad trailer earlier, and I couldn't believe people were praising it. I look at Family Guy the same way I look at Star Wars. I thought Star Wars was just an average movie with some pretty poor acting. When everyone acts like it was the second coming of Christ it's just bewildering. That's how I feel about Family Guy. An average TV show that for some reason unbeknownst to me gathered this enormous following. Comparing it to the Simpsons is like comparing Star Wars to Citizen Kane. Like Family Guy if you want, but to claim it's somehow brilliant is absurd. Personally, I do not think it was that funny, and American Dad is much worse, since it's essentially the same with the stupidity factor upped exponentially. I would be stunned if it got picked up by a major network.

I would put Family Guy above any Disney Cartoon though!

You must have never seen Sorcerer's Apprentice. Or Lion King. Or 101 Dalmatians. Or a bunch of other Disney cartoons.

It looks funny as hell.

I'm guessing it'll be on fox like Family guy.

I heard Seth MacFarlane talking about Family Guy coming back in 2005. Is this true? I hope so my life hasn't been the same without a weekly does of a cartoon Adam West.

I loved Family Guy, got them all on DVD. This show, well, as much as i wanted to, i didnt laugh once. Pretty bad. Reminded me of why sitcoms are so bad these days. Dont know how Macfarlane can produce gold with FG, and garbage with this. Family Guy is supposed to come back, so the sooner this show tanks (soon by the looks) the better for FG.

EDIT: i looked it up, and Macfarlane isnt one of the main writers. explains a lot. The main writers, are responsible for the show, "Method and Red". Explains even more. Macfarlane is doing voice work and directing for this show, directing a cartoon watever that means.

I never watched Family Guy on a regular basis but whenever I was flippin channels and saw that it was on I watched it and laughed my ass off, the one episode that I can remember was when the dad finds out that he's actually black (H), that was pure genius. Anyway I've always been a Simpsons fan and I don't allow myself to watch any other cartoons similar to it because I don't want to distance myself from the Simpsons :hump:

I can't wait till Family Guy comes back. Its hilarious, tons of time funnier then the current Simpson episodes. That show should skip a season and come up with some new material because I've managed to watch like 3 of the episodes without laughing.

The Bart and Lisa friendship episode was the last straw :eek: (H)

The simpsons have lost their touch , it used to be really funny. Now it's not as funny. My favourite show of all time are the critic (which is like Family guy but not as funny) the family guy, king of the hill, old simpsons and Seinfeld. American dad looks promising.

coming from the Network who make a reality show about midgets getting married and a woman being forced to GUESS who her real father is :|


it was also because they kept moving around the timeslots, and eventually, nobody knew when the hell it was on, so ratings were low and it got cancelled

I agree, the characters are more likable and carry better topics...at least so far. Politics give this show something much more attractive than Family Guy.
