Nighthawk Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Current Simpsons is a Family Guy clone. Fuck American Dad, yeah.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted September 30, 2005 Author Report Posted September 30, 2005 I haven't watched the last couple of seasons of The Simpsons. I even defended the show back when people first started saying it was declining in quality; it wasn't easy cutting the cord on a show I used to love so.
Art Sandusky Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 If watching American Dad warrants a hand being chopped off, then watching Family Guy warrants a stick of dynamite being shoved up your ass. American Dad is so good it goes from being so good it isn't funny all the way back around to being good and funny.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted September 30, 2005 Author Report Posted September 30, 2005 I haven't watched American Dad, nor do I intend to.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted September 30, 2005 Author Report Posted September 30, 2005 Fox cut the 2nd season of AD short by two episodes, so they could get a head's up on showing American Dad. That, plus the Family Guy factor, means it must be the worst show on television. Maybe in the entire history of the medium.
Art Sandusky Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Hey, Spoon, shut up. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No, you shut up. FACED
Nighthawk Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 I like Family Guy, but American Dad is the exact same formula and it's the stupidest crap I've ever seen. Which shows that Family Guy was luck. Plus all the conservative bashing. I give a shit about politics, but it gets old after a few seconds.
Art Sandusky Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Oh, if you wanna get serious about talking about it. It flows a lot more coherently than Family Guy does. I liked the style of humor until it got overkilled. American Dad returns to a more plot-based show. Plus I always like stuff that makes important and deadly people look like idiots. Seeing the CIA populated with elementary schoolers is awesome. That and I'll rarely find any kind of politically-geared show boring, whether it be a real one or satire. Being a news addict like me makes American Dad much funnier. Obviously, not everyone else is.
Nighthawk Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 I get all my news from Bill Maher and the Daily Show. And I vote, motherfuckers, you can suck on that. I did love That's My Bush, which was not political commentary as many people assumed.
Art Sandusky Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 That's My Bush was too ludicrous to ever be considered commentary, I felt. Fuckin' kneejerk conservatives. Oh well, we may see it return by next year or 2007 the way things are going now.
Nighthawk Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Hey, when you're out protesting I'll be in the voting booth fucking your country... IN THE ASS!
Giuseppe Zangara Posted September 30, 2005 Author Report Posted September 30, 2005 That's My Bush was great. Why hasn't Comedy Central put that shit on DVD yet.
Art Sandusky Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Hey, I leave protesting to the people that'll go out there and put their feet in their mouth. I'm far too moderate to get along in such a radical setting. But that was probably some reference I don't get.
Nighthawk Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Correct. The original went "When you're out gay bashing I'll be at your house fucking your girlfriend etc."
The Czech Republic Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Fox cut the 2nd season of AD short by two episodes Four, I believe hey treble can you get me that episode? I will pay you in Frank Zappa albums
Slayer Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 This thread was good until it turned into an actual discussion... BTW, AD > neo-FG
Sideburnious Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Fox cut the 2nd season of AD short by two episodes Four, I believe hey treble can you get me that episode? I will pay you in Frank Zappa albums <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'll send it to you next time your on Aim if you want. Just Pm me when your on.
Special K Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 If AD gets the Axe, I could actually really see it being picked up by another network/HBO/someone else. I won best comedy, directing and writing Emmies last year, and it's the funniest show to have ever existed for chrissakes.
Annabelle Posted October 1, 2005 Report Posted October 1, 2005 never understood the fascination with family guy which warrants these straight to dvd releases. is there anyone remotely likeable in that show? anyone funny? please don't say the dad. or the son. or any of the girls, because face it, girls are never funny. stewie has about a 50% chance of saying something funny. and the dog is the dog. i don't get it. compare that to arrested developments roster of funny. seriously. and want to know who the funniest is on that show? george michael. fuck, do i love that kid. but really, there isn't anyone unfunny on that show. for the reason alone, wouldn't ad take the cake? in my world it does, and thats really all that counts. give me spongebob fucking squarepants over family guy. i really hate family guy. my opinion counts as i've deemed myself the funniest & most sophisticated & irreverant poster in tsm history. i slay myself.
The Czech Republic Posted October 1, 2005 Report Posted October 1, 2005 George Michael is hysterical. "I don't want Franklin to point out my cracker ass in front of Ann."
Slayer Posted October 1, 2005 Report Posted October 1, 2005 Banky was better back when he was still subtle AD > neo-FG Just to note, when I said this, I was referring to American Dad Arrested Development isn't funny at all. I sat through three different episodes (based on hype from this very board) and was mostly stone-faced throughout
Star Ocean 3 Posted October 1, 2005 Report Posted October 1, 2005 You beat me, I sat through nearly the entire first two seasons before I realized it's not that good. The episode with Martin Short is what made me stop.
The Czech Republic Posted October 1, 2005 Report Posted October 1, 2005 Arrested Development isn't funny at all. Wrong

Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted October 1, 2005 Report Posted October 1, 2005 It's cool, man, I don't like that show either.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted October 1, 2005 Author Report Posted October 1, 2005 You beat me, I sat through nearly the entire first two seasons before I realized it's not that good. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It took you that long to figure out you didn't like it? This kind of idiocy exemplifies why I don't go into the the tv/film folder. Now all this thread needs is Downhome to push it over the top.
The Czech Republic Posted October 1, 2005 Report Posted October 1, 2005 Oh no, here comes the vomit...
