Family Guy is brilliant, nough said.
I also spent a few weekends watching their entire series at my freinds house, must go out and buy them some day.

ExOffender

Family guy is excellent, but overall I prefer the Simpsons (later eps excluded).

Some things about Family Guy bother me, too much empty referencing, making pop-culture references purely for the sake of it. So Peter and Paddy Tanager the Caddy Manager start reciting a Calvin Klein ad for no reason... eh, that's not funny. At all. Stewie does the 'Rocket Man' video... amusing for ten seconds. A full minute is self-indulgence, and really, really boring. I like the way they drag jokes out but they over-drag them, too. And that cuts into repeat viewability like nobody's business.

But overall it's excellent, and I'm looking forward to season 4. A nice mixture of the stupid and the smart kinds of humour. Stupid = Peter falling over and hurting his knee running home in 'Wasted Talent'. Smart = Stewie having Chris announce 'Eviscerate the proletariat!' in, crap, can't remember the episode.

Fantasy

I love family guy !!! Its simply the best cartoon of all time ... hilarious

This just in!

Season 4 Episode 1 - "North by north Quahog" has been leaked onto something called the inn-tur-nett. Sources claim that I have just watched it and that it was worth waiting for. Allegedly.

It was brillant! It has lost none of it's spark! Practically every scene in it worked... and was hilarious from parodies of

The Passion Of The Christ

to

The Blues Brothers

and a couple of slightly disturbing scenes including

Chris being spanked by Stewie

and

the Pinocchio scene

. MacFarlane is a genius! I say give up 'American Dad' and concentrate on more Family Guy.

Well worth the wait!!

Seemed a little forced to me, stuff just wasn't catching me off guard like it used to be before. The

GI Joe bit did catch me off guard a little alright

Yea I love Futurama it was replaced by Oliver BeIny(WTF!!) Theres room for all of them, anyway I couldn't pick any one over the other between Futurama, Family Guy, The Simpsons or South Park.

Anyone remember King of the Hill? That was the biggest load of crap ever, saw a bit of it the other day on RTE WTF?

For me it was more like staring at the screen for about 5 minutes in horror and disgust perfectly imagining the experience, then laughing uncomfortably
