I like the sight gags and the 80s references...but I prefer morbid humor, not sexual humor...and some of their stuff is outright raunchy. I liked the earlier episodes better as well...the timing seems off on the later episodes and some of the jokes are just carried on for too long when they need to move on to different things.

I'm a pretty big fan of the show. However there isnt an episode out there which I think is all gold. 2 weeks ago had a couple good bits in it though. The Firetruck and Hiroshima scenes will forever live in my mind XD. Unfortunately, their both pretty visual and hard to explain..

YOU WILL BOW TO STEWIE.  Yes, I'm a fan as well. I love the episode when Peter starts his own country, and the episode when everyone thinks that he's God. xD |

Meh, you have a point, most of the third season and the new shows are pretty wild and have nudity, but I do not really mind it. One of things I find funny is the randomness of all the jokes they make, and at everything, too. Plus, the antics with Brian and Stewie appeal to me as well (so many gay jokes made at Stewie, though, in the third season). As with the first two seasons, I enjoyed them, too. They were as funny as many Family Guy shows are, the only difference (to me) being that Season 1 & 2 are the "cleaner" episodes, and 3 & 4 are the more mature ones. |

"Oh no!"
"Oh no!"
"Oh no!"
(kool-aid guy) "Oh YEAH!"
...priceless!
Yeah, I love this show, even if only for all the random little moments like that.

Peter: "Well, what about that time I sang for the kids at Sunday School?"
Brian: "Yea, and you forgot all the words..."
"Jesus loves me, He loves me a bunch, 'Cause he always puts Skippy, in my lunch..."
(*blank stares*)
That little sequence had me laughing for hours. XD

"Damn you! Damn the weather! And damn the Wright brothers!" -Stewie being fed brocolli.

"Jesus loves me, He loves me a bunch, 'Cause he always puts Skippy, in my lunch..." (*blank stares*) That little sequence had me laughing for hours. XD Shoot, Tonfa, I cannot remember what episode that one was in. Can you post which one it was? Anyways, I'll make a confession: I was one of those people who watched Family Guy, but was too young to understand some of the humor (still laughed and found it funny, though), so I was not really a big fan that talked or knew everything about (I got back into it and finally understood the jokes when the DVDs were released :  . That being said, does anyone know why Fox cancelled it in the first place? The obvious answer might probably be from the rowdiness, but I just want confirmation.... And now, time for a Family Guy moment ;D: *Quagmire is naked and lying down, with a ceiling fan placed only a few inches above his crotch* Cleveland: All Right, Glenn, this exercise should help teach you self-control. *turns on the fan* Joe: Here's this month's Victoria's Secret catalogue. Quagmire: Oh, oh god, oh god! Ah-uh, dead kittens! Dead kittens! Old nuns, uh, really old nuns! Uh, Renee Zellweger! Ah, there we go! |

Oh and that Sunday-school bit from my last post was from the episode which first introduced Joe Swanson (The cop in the wheelchair. "HOLY CRIP HES A CRAPPLE!!!") |

XD Hmm...do you mean the episode where Peter dies on the day he skipped his anniversary, resurie? Anyways, like I said, Brian and Stewie are my favorites in the show. Sometimes, I like Peter, but it really depends on how he acts in the episode (like in the feminist episode and the recent one where the Mensa test proved he was retarded and he started to take advantage of that). The others are so-so. And with something serious in this post, I can now add another FG moment ;D!!!!! *Flashback with Death and his date in the backseat of a car* Death: *with gasps of breath and the car rocking* Oh Sandy! Oh-ho, Sandy! Ohhhhooo!! *car stops rocking* Death: Sandy? Oh, not again! I'm going to be a virgin forever! Or am I? *car starts rocking again* |
