Best cartoon series ever & yes I have all the box sets.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 01-17-2008 04:45 PM                        That is truly sad. Anyway I have to let people know that dogshit disguised as a TV show is unacceptable and I am glad the writers are starving and living in the gutter now. PS - I don't watch it, and it still sucks!  |  IP: Logged Hillary Charles Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 748 From: York, PA, USA Registered: Feb 2001 posted 01-17-2008 05:13 PM                     Joe, maybe you should just listen to radio. I hear Dingo and the Baby is a good radio show. Not sure if any locals carry it in your area.

Nowhere in Particular. Registered: Aug 1999 posted 01-18-2008 02:27 PM                     The worst night of my non-satellite days was running a 'Best Of The Family Guy' DVD... Uggh. All the shows seem to just be the same thing over and over... Its almost as bad as American Dad...  |  IP: Logged Brian Michael Weidemann Expert cat molester Posts: 944 From: Costa Mesa, CA United States Registered: Feb 2004 posted 01-18-2008 03:51 PM                        I think someone would be hardpressed to find ANY sitcom or otherwise episodic show that wasn't "the same thing over and over". This is the one where Gilligan messes up the plan. This is the Three's Company with the misunderstanding. This is where Batman and Robin do a poorly choreographed fight with comic-book onomatopoeia titling. This is where Bill Cosby wears a sweater. This is where Woody says something oblivious at Cheers. We're about to see Janice on an episode of Friends, so this is where she says "Oh. My. God." This is where they vote someone off the island, hand out a rose, or fire someone. This is where Peter has a random aside to something referencing pop-culture and Quagmire says "Giggedy Goo". Roll credits, stay tuned for another episode ...  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 01-18-2008 05:18 PM                        My friend has a Family Guy Collection UMD that came with his PSP. We are going to destroy it and shoot the destruction on high speed video so we have a nice slow motion of it's death. The world will cheer. Never before has a TV show blocked up my colon in such a way. Brian, I rarely watch TV as it is. And by rare I mean once every year or so. I am glad the writers are striking. I hope they strike forever, literally. We need new and better writers for ALL shows. The current ones suck and they do not deserve jobs in the writing industry (there are a few exceptions as always).  |  IP: Logged Brian Michael Weidemann Expert cat molester Posts: 944 From: Costa Mesa, CA United States Registered: Feb 2004 posted 01-18-2008 07:48 PM                        Joe, I perfectly agree that we need something new to happen, and this strike may be just the thing. But the shows that air are always going to be subject, to some degree, to what the networks want to broadcast, so certain types of writing are always going to be there, whether it's a new batch of people or not. I've never hated a show so adamantly as you do. Well, The Apprentice came close. Oh, and I did see an episode of Desperate Housewives that actually blocked my colon in such a way.  |  IP: Logged Jesse Skeen Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1517 From: Sacramento, CA Registered: Aug 2000 posted 01-18-2008 10:45 PM                     OK, Family Guy isn't the greatest show ever, but it's far from the worst. What about Scooby Doo and its endless spin-offs- EVERY damn show had the SAME ending! (If this were a Family Guy episode, we'd cut right now to a parody of the way Scooby Doo always ends, with them unmasking a guy who says "And I would have gotten away with it too, if it hadn't been for you meddlin' kids!")  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 01-18-2008 11:32 PM                        Scooby Doo is good in a cheesy sort of way, but I don't think anyone can watch it in large amounts. Believe it or not there are some people who actually like Family Guy.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 01-19-2008 12:31 AM                       I never cared much for Scooby Doo, either. I rejected it primarily because of the shoddy animation; couldn't stand it. Even back when it first hit the air, when I was just 6 or 7 years old, I thought it looked cheap.  |  IP: Logged James Westbrook Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1133 From: Lubbock, Texas, Usa Registered: Mar 2006 posted 01-19-2008 01:00 AM                     There's always Robot Chicken...  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 01-19-2008 02:46 AM                        Robot Chicken is good (usually though not always). I've never seen it on TV, only DVD and Al Gore's Internet™.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 01-19-2008 02:53 AM                       I really appreciated the "Star Wars" edition of "Robot Chicken"! Other episodes, eh, notsuhmuch.  |  IP: Logged
