Precisely :thumbsup:

Does this show get any funnier? I was laughing so hard on sunday with the vomiting scene. Who is watching this show? why is there no thread on it?

Goddamn the show is fucking hilarious. Every minute of it, every show.

what about when the Herculoids showed up, bursting through the living room door??? what mind thought that up?

Tonight's episode was awesome. That bit with Quagmire was hysterical. That was probably the best out of all of the new episodes, and probably a top five over all. "Gigiddy gigiddy goo"

Anyone else think the show's getting more random... in a bad way? I know family guy has a lot of random humour, but it used to tie into the plot more. Like tonights episode where peter was going... ah the fence, the cripple's natural enemy. And then the cop dude appears in a military chopper, with the chinese guy making some random obscure joke when he blows the fucking street to hell getting into the sewer.

Just seemed to me they were beating the dead horse. way over the top.

I don't think it's any more random that when it first started...

I mean.. I loved the AHA tie in.... :)

Where were you???? I don't know!!!!!!!

"That one was also sexual"

Yeah, I about started crying when I saw the A-ha bit, it was so funny. :D


Family Guy can be a little tedious when a joke goes on and on, but overall it's what adds to its charm.


/nostalgic for 80's music, of a sudden

This one seemed really forced on a lot of bits. I LOVED the Aha bit.. but alot of the stuff is just setups now...

blah blah, like when "<random scene setup>". <random scene>.

It just hurt after a while.

Still, Aha, Goonies, Neverending Story references.. great.

Disappointed that there were a ton of sewer scenes and no Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, though hehe.

I've been noticing the plots have seemed more disjointed than they used to, going off on tangents that barely make sense. And I agree there's been way too many of the setups, I've been loving the on-and-on jokes though, like when Stewie talks about Brian's book for 2 minutes I was rolling.

[Edit] Oh and the Herculoids was the first Family Guy reference I have ever not gotten. They went WAY back for that one though, so I have an excuse :)

And your disappointment was probablly bantered around the table at one time, as maybe being too "expected" and that's the genius of the show, which keeps it fresh. I've not seen how many writers are on the show, but I know that Boston Public which has great dialogue has many writers for some show.

Good point. Maybe because it was expected they didn't do it. It had to at LEAST get a mention during the discussion of the script :)

I never said it was real. I'm guessing someone photoshoped the name (haven't clicked the snopes link yet).

It's still funny.

"want some more seamen on your poopdeck"

okay, i'm just going to use this an "all about family guy thread", So i'm wondering on all of your opinions about this. I'm looking for (in your opinion) the most over the top family guy joke... as in those ones where you say to yourself "holy shit even I can't believe they said/did that?!?!"
I'll give my vote... I would have to say in the episode "..and the weiner is" Meg gets a postion as flag girl but is treated pretty bad by the other kids, towards the end of the show megs goes to a party at one of the cheerleaders house to get even but decides to cop out. so Lois has a backup plan.... Quagmire... He shows up at the door and asks the cheerleader how old she is... she says 16... He then says 18?!..she then yells for mom and then Quagmire gives an ol "alllll right.."
I thought it was funny as hell, but thought...wow.. they let that air?? So how about it people.. any others in your opinion???

Haha , when I watched that scene, I was thinking c'mon do a ninja turtles reference, it's just begging for it!

I saw that episode last night as well (DVR'd) - funny.

My favorite one liner from the show - "You are about as lame as FDR's legs".... ;)

The JFK Jr joke that even Stewie found distasteful was pretty bad, probably the most over the top from the series, some of the jokes from the Stewie Griffin: Untold story movie make that seem like nothing though ;)
