Family Guy: Shit/Not shit?

[danny la rouge]

Anyone seen it?

Still haven't seen it.

 

[Awesome Wells]

The show that has Stewie parodying Shatner's rendition of rocket man?

Make up your own mind, but there is a correct answer.

 

[Yetman]

The latest season whatever it is is excellent by the way

 

[Obnoxiousness]

Family Guy is wonderful.

 

[ruffneck23]

the multiverse epsiode is

 

[The Octagon]

Just watched that online, quality

"We appear to be in the Universe of misleading portraiture" - genuine LOL

Disney one was brilliant too - "JEW! "

 

[AverageJoe]

Disney tried to sue FG for the 'I need a Jew' song, when Peter gets his money affairs in a state, claiming it was a rip off of 'When You Wish Upon A Star'

It totally was. Disney totally lost.

 

[stupid dogbot]

So not shit.

 

[DaRealSpoon]

Well said!

There is only one scene in the whole series that I found funny and that is when Quagmire finds that cheerleader tied up in the toilet and says "jackpot!"

How can you find that particular joke funny and nothing else? It's not like it's vastly detached from much of the other humour in the 8 series of the show...

I think I have an instant mistrust of anyone that doesn't at least like bits of Family Guy

 

[Ted Striker]

I don't get these threads.

Of course it's not shit - it may not be your favourite, and if you're trying to impress girls with your breadth of cartoon comedial encyclopaedic knowledge thus rendering any appreciation of such a populist entity against your quasi-religion, but how many other shows do a Star Wars spoof that also references Airplane?

What about the episode with Michael McDonald?

For the record, I think it is more similar to the Simpsons than people would care to admit - FG fans are pretty much always ex-Simpsons fans that have grown out of the eventual shitness of Simpsons (which isn't even shit per se, you just have too much of it IMO). That's not to say their identical, but you can compare the similarities between the two a lot closer than you can, say, SP or Futurama. So it's like saying Coupled is similar to Friends, well, not identical, but more similar than the Office.

 

[The Octagon]

Awesome.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

That's fucking wicked!

 

[Badgers]

Not ordered series eight yet but this thread is pushing me towards it

 

[twistedAM]

My favourite episode of all time is still the one where Brian gets addicted to coke.
I also like the one where Stewie beats the crap out of Brian cos of a gambling debt.

They're by far my two favourite characters, and of the peripheral characters I realy like the old paedo and his disabled dog.

Innit. One of the all-time great screen beatings.

This ^^^

The ipecac ep was the first one I ever saw and I was aghast but I have watched it since and it's worth it for Brian and Stewie.

I saw a doc about it and now enjoy it both more and less knowing that madman does most of the voices and it's his actual baby

 

[JE:5]

It's OK, i'll watch it if it happens to be on TV at the time i'm sitting in front of it but that's about it, I certainly don't feel like rushing out and buying the DVDs or even downloading them.

You need a sitting on the fence option in the poll.

 

[kyser_soze]

'How much you pay for that fake moustache?'

'$2.99'

'So you got money for fake moustaches but not me huh!!'

 

[Balbi]

And a later episode where Stewies about to eat shit and Brian has a flashback to that scene and leaves him to it

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

not shit

however it's not fantastic... i can only watch most episodes once after that they lose impact... other stuff i can keep coming back to...

Just watched the trailer for the new series, must resist temptation to pre-order...

 

[sojourner]

It's coming on the telly next week, on FX

Totally not shit

Two of my favourite scenes ever are the one where Lois asks Brian if he's been stealing chewing gum out of the bin again, he says no, then farts a big bubble of gum - cracks me up every single time I've seen it

The other is Stewie's obsession with Lois after she finds his teddy bear...Mum, Mum, Mum, Mama, Mama, Mama, mother, mother mother etc

funny as fuck. I'm afraid I do this all the time when I want to annoy my daughter

"WHAT! WHAT IS IT?!?!?"

"Haaaaaaiiiiiiiiieeeeeee" *runs away*

 

[sojourner]

but doesn't he say 'it's meeeee'?

 

[Balbi]

Hi! *giggles*

 

[stupid dogbot]

Peter: I haven't felt this bad since my school trip to the museum...

Young Peter: Why did the dinosaurs die out?
Teacher: Because you touch yourself at night.

 

[twistedAM]

Innit. One of the all-time great screen beatings.

Oh it had it all. Golf clubs. Kneecapping. And FIRE!

 

[sojourner]

Hi! *giggles*

I stand corrected

'The safe word is 'banana'

*SMACK!*
