Maybe last night's new episode was just off. I mean, having to resurrect Loretta and another of Brian's girlfriends either looking like or having the voice of Drew Barrymore. Maybe they ought to just do a spin off called "Stewey Guy". Now THAT, I would watch. |

Venture Bros. is really, really good too.

|  | Supporting Member | | Join Date: Jun 2008 Location: Close to Los Angeles, CA | | | i have seen every episode of family guy, and honestly, i thought the same thing last night...
it was so boring and stupid.
i did get a few laughs (stewie saying "its rueeened" was a reference to the earlier "cool hhwip" joke, and the "hatweight" thing cracked me up) but its just not as good as some of the older stuff.
King of The Hill was a total dissapointment as well.
KOTH is one of my all time favorites, but the new episodes are so boring that i cant even watch them.
the same thing with the simpsons.
i have seen every episode of southpark (you can watch them on the southpark website for free), and i think that southpark is still a pretty good show. |

Watch! Not predictable. |

The thing I've ecome to dislike about Family Guy is the gratuitous violence. Does Peter really have to shoot Lois in the head every other episode? It just stopped being funny after the third or fourth time. |

|  | Online | | Join Date: Apr 2001 Location: Sunapee, New Hampshire | | I decided to watch it last night for the first time ever. I had been hearing about how funny it is for a long time. I cut out when it went to the first commercial break. I found it so-so funny, very predicatble, and more like a copy cat of previous shows like it.
Besides...I wanted to watch some more NFL highlights for the 20th time.

"I'm not a weatherman, but it raining bitches."
I laughed hard enough to get my wife to poke her head in and look at me funny. (Although that happens quite a lot in my world).  |

LOL.
the part where the girl was laying on the bed with the landing strip lights and the guy with the cones was hilarious too. |
