    Reasons:
    • When the Simpsons began to wane, it filled the animation void... and then some!
    • It has the ability to make me cry with laughter with one minute facial expression
    • Every episode is a gem, they dont make bad episodes
    • People power got the show back on the air, which says it all. Its just a pity people power wont do the opposite to the simpsons, which is way beyond its sell-by date.
    • Each character is a legend, theres no dry wood there to make up the numbers.
    • Two Words: Stewie Griffin
    • It isn't afraid to "go there"... (e.g. - The Lindberghs, JonBenet Ramsey, etc...)
    • Plenty of references to literature - Dostoyevski, Marlowe, Oscar Wilde etc...
    • So many spoof moments of TV Shows, Films, Actors, Shatner etc...

    series 4 is still very good. FamGuy deserves a forum, even if it's only for a month.
    Anybody see the one with stewie and bin laden getting through the x-ray? Legend.

    The episode with Bill Shatner getting killed was one of the funniest pieces of animation I've ever seen. A big YAY from me. :)
