Slayer 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2006 This episode is proving nearly everything that South Park said last Wednesday I wonder when they're going to do an episode that's nothing but cutaway jokes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Coffey Report post Posted April 10, 2006 That's why people watch Family Guy though. The cut-away jokes are what makes it fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jebus 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2006 Pretty lacklustre episode tonight. I killed myself laughing at the restaurant's name, though. I was half paying attention...what was the restaurant's name? Not the best episode but there's always some good parts: Lois - "Brian wants to have sex with me so bad! He's never gonna get to!". Then, Peter takes a bite of his guitar... I also liked Chris' crying as he was being licked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Qu'est-ce qui pue Restaurant." A lot of people wouldn't get that, but I did. Yay me. Simpsons was good tonight, to my surprise. Perhaps the show can get out of the funk it's been in for the better part of a decade? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2006 Yeah, just call this "Fox Sunday Night". I enjoyed everything tonight (except I refused to watch Free Ride for taking up AD's space). I think maybe I'm just a mark for references as the only things I remember really laughing at on Family Guy were Stewie singing Mr. Belevedere, The Noid ("Perhaps it was the Noid who should have avoided me"... loved it), and the TMNT theme being played for 4 seconds. On The Simpsons, Homer "calling" the "repair man" (Mac Tonight) was fairly amusing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Simpsons have been out of the funk for pretty much this entire season. Up to this point, it's been the best season in years, especially the past five or so episodes.

Slayer 0 Report post Posted April 11, 2006 That's why people watch Family Guy though. The cut-away jokes are what makes it fun. Not really. IMO, the gold standard episodes of the series are from season two (the best example being "Road to Rhode Island"), and they all had few-to-no cutaway jokes at all. At least if there were non-sequitirs, they dealt with the episode as a whole (ex: "Da Bomb") Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted April 11, 2006 I think South Park's bitter than Family Guy's taking the brunt of the attention for shock value for cartoons these days. I still like Family Guy, but it's not as good as it was the first two seasons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
