Last season Family Guy was probably the best adult-themed animated show. Which is too bad since it was King of the Hill's last season and I love that show. The Star Trek episode alone was beautiful. But I don't understand how you can hate on the character voices? What's wrong with them?


This.

Sure, King of the Hill may not rely on jokes to be a good show, but the story and writing are the things that truly makes me love and cherish that show above the rest in "animation domination".

*puts up flame shield* I've never understood why people like Family Guy so much. Personally, it's never gotten a laugh out of me. I would love for someone to explain why it is so funny. From the episodes that I've watched - none of it made sense it is just one lame one-liner after another.

Personally Peter's actions to what's surrounding him is very funny. Stewie also was funny when he was a homicidal maniac instead of being a Homo. Lois isn't very funny buy what TV Cartoon Moms are. Brian is only good when Stewie and him go at it. Chris gets a good line occasionaly. Meg is only funny when the family treats her like crap. Quagmire is also funny but he is what makes the show so cutting edge due to his Sex addiction. Joe is the least funny character on the show. There are also other funny characters like Herbert, Ernie, Carter, Jasper, Dr. Hartman, and Mayor West. The funny thing about it is the cutaway gags and musical numbers here are a few examples:

Wow, thanks for trying but I didn't find any of them remotely funny. The "Cool Whip" one didn't make any sense, the "Mommy" one was so annoying that I didn't even finish watching, and the "Prostate Exam" was equally as stupid. The only one that was close to 'enjoyable' was the "Disney" one - but even that one wasn't funny.

I'm really not trying to be a troll here - I just don't understand why people like this show so much. I actually never liked The Simpsons either...

:shock: I don't think you're being a troll at all but you've made me too damn curious: what shows do you like? (Note: not trying to say that if you don't like either Simpsons or FG than I don't know how you can like tv at all).

The Office
The Universe (History)
Ghost Adventures

^Your story checks out. I'm a religious Office viewer myself and i understand the major differences in humor in those two shows. On a somewhat unrelated note however. I'd highly recommend 30 Rock, and 'scuse me if I already said that somewhere else on the board.

Yeah, I've actually seen a few episodes of 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation and I really liked them. And to be honest, if I could - I would watch those religiously too. But unfortunately with college and all I'm pretty much so busy that I really only have time to watch only one of those shows on Thursday night. What I am more likely to do is wait until the seasons are over and just pick them up on DVD so I can watch them when I have the time. :wink:

Family guy: too me it currently sucks mostly because of the line of end the episode"family goy"

Now I'm usally pretty tollerent but WTF? why would JESUS say all religions are crap?* (this and The jokes are more then 50% fart jokes or the like.)


*that makes as much since as a ps3 fanboy saying they hate ps3.

No it doesn't, he like How I Met Your Mother. I can't believe that man.... I thought you were cool.

@Traviswiifan Seth MacFarlene is an avid atheist. He really doesn't care about religion and thinks that it's caused more problems than solved. (Case in point, the middle east.) Lots of creators put their beliefs into their shows. Trey Parker and Matt Stone do this the most, to a point where I had to just stop watching episodes because they got too preachy. Even Matt Greoning does it.
