What Happend to Family Guy?

Not open for further replies.
People tend to forget (or not realize) that American Dad was greenlit and went into production BEFORE Family Guy was brought back. If FG reruns had not found success on Adult Swim and DVD then AD is all we would have gotten in 2005. So, that's why AD has so much in common with FG. But once FG 2.0 was greenlit, AD was forced to find its new identity.

Good point.

Not that hard to do.

I agree that AD is way better than FG now.

Cleveland Show is the only thing I can think of recently that has gotten a second season being in that Sunday night line-up.
 
I was talking about getting a cartoon on Fox. Make it about a wacky family and don't worry about the quality and voila, you are a millionaire.
 
Price is right wheel of death and Peter on Red Bull rampage was the first time I laughed at this show in a LONG time. Also chuckled at Peter making his own red bull with coffee and kerosene.
 
When it cut to Peter doing Ray of Light was the only time I laughed last night. I wish Family Guy would either get a new writing staff or be put out to greener pastures but I don't see it happening.
 
The new episode just aired and it sucked. Recently family guy hasnt been as good as it usually is. Is seth and the crew running out of juice? :huh:
Maybe what's not good for you is good for others
have you ever think of that !?
 
I miss the style of the first three seasons of family guy. It was so funny. I like how they made stewie a badass and brian just a laid back kinda dude but now stewie is.. wel gay and brian is a political talking dog lol.

Yeah I remember the earlier epsidoes Stewie always plotting to kill Lois.
 
This new episode was pretty funny. There was alot of funny moments like lipstick moment and the stewie look alike in the porno LOL
 
The intro was awesome.

"Mr. Tucker, don't make me angry, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry." :lmao:
 
am i the only one getting sick of stewie being gay, i didn't mind it when it was hinted at but now there is no subtly about it. it's just not as funny anymore
 
People find it funnier, apparently.

I thought Stewie was straight again ? He went to that Christian camp to get the gay out of him or something.
 
Some pro gays rights group would probably sue that's why.

... well that's just not true. A character can be evil AND gay just as long as their not evil BECAUSE they're gay. Its the way it works with any minority group and really not that hard a concept to understand.
 
Monsieur Mallah and Brain at DC are perfectly examples of being gay and evil and it being done right.

Kinda like how Magneto was embraced by the Jewish community for being a pretty good bad guy despite being a Holocaust survivor and Jewish? That's right they didn't. Marvel had to retcon him into a Gypsy for a few years.

I'm not saying Stewie would be embraced by the gay community, but he certainly wouldn't offend anyone. Hell, He's already gay and villainous and there has been no backlash.

Sidenote, making a character an evil gypsy is just as offensive as making them an evil jew. I'm gonna get on my soapbox for a moment and mention that millions of gypsies were murdered in the holocaust alongside the Jewish people. No-one seems to bat an eyelid at the casual racism most gypsy communities are treated with or cares that there are still some countries in the world where they still have no basic human rights. It honestly astounds me how in 2011 it is still seen as socially acceptable to discriminate and be prejudiced against travellers, so much so that many people don't even realise they're doing it.
 
Are they doing special intros now? I recall them doing that a few times before in this season.
