ThruItAll Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Some of my friends hate family guy for being very discriminating. I do agree, somewhat it is quite offensive to many religions. And they say that makes it not funny. While even though some of the views are against views of mine, I find it hilarious. I think Family Guy, is a great cartoon, filled with comedy, but some think it's based on pure stupidity. So what do you think of family guy; Offensive, Funny, Or just simply stupid? danke Schon Sam!^^"Blood runs thicker, oh were thick as thieves you know"-Carl Barât Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Led-Zeppelin Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I can see how they find it offensive, but people need to stop being so PC. It's a show, have a laugh. Family Guy is one of my favourite shows, love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 It's a funny show for what it is. Hoenstly people just need to watch family guy and realize its for some cheap laughs. The humor isn't as well thought up as as a lot of south park episodes, but its still very funny. My favorite quote has to be: *Peter on wall of fortune* "Yeah.. I'd like a Z... an X.... a Q..... another Q...... a third Q... and the batman symbol" "Alright, no hope there." *peter guesses it correctly. Heh, later on in the episode "How much for the fat man in the blue circle?" "thats you, sir" "oooh.. how embaressing". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hbk_hossack Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I love Family Guy! But I do have to admit, they do steal from the Simpsons a bit. But the best quotes gotta be Stewie:Jeez this is even worse than when Peter was on steroids Peter:Meg pass the sauce *Pete knocks down something that I don't remember* Peter:God damn it Meg! *Pete knocks meg the fudge out* 38% of Tip.Iters put stupid made up statistics in their sigs. If you are one of the 62% that don't, put this in your sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordanFreeman Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Offensive, funny, and simply stupid. It's an excellent show! :thumbsup: It's offensive to all races/religions/chickens. And it's also extremely funny...many, though, get tired of the type of comedy in the form of flashbacks though I think. I dunno, imo it's a great way to express the comedic part of the show. It can be pretty raunchy (I got the fifth season a few days ago, and they do actually use f**k and many other words, which I was surprised about...also, in one episode they had a nude picture of Peter from waist down, I was like "zomg wtf?", was not expecting that). It only adds to the humor though, especially when it's Stewie using all the language. "El que no arriesga no gana" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmanuel1233 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 family guy is one of my favorite shows.. in my opinion if you take what they do seriously, you don't have a sense of humor... maybe because someone in rl makes jokes like that and it frustrates you.. idk im just making a hypothesis... when they talk about any religion even my own i laugh especially if its my own becuase i can see the humor in it..

Nom Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 A few friends and I had a four hour car drive to our football state championship game, and we basically spent the entire time watching Family Guy. Yeah, it's pretty offensive sometimes, and extremely stupid most of the time, but that's why it's so hilarious. Best FG moment ever: "This is almost as intense as the time I forgot to sit down!" [scene in which Peter dives into his armchair] Oh, and I might as well mention that we popped in South Park for maybe four epsiodes, then went back to Family Guy. South Park just isn't funny and they swear way too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Led-Zeppelin Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 My favourite FG moment is when Peter said he tried extacy, and he was groping Stewies face, then patting Brain, then he took all his clothes off and rubbing himself on the carpet. And everyone was sitting on the couch watching TV, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Alex85 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Like Nadril said, Family Guy is for cheap laughs. Don't look to that show for outstanding morals or messages. I have some gifts for you They're up in my bum Holy crap! Here comes Jesus And he doesn't look too happy That was a good moment on the show. ;P It really has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Putter Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 It's honestly pretty bad now. In fact, it hasn't been very good since they came back from being cancelled. They keep recycling jokes and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushrock Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Funny, stupid, and insulting. Not quite as good as South Park in these categories, but really a great show nonetheless. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tryto Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Funny, stupid, and insulting.

Lenin64 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I find it to be humerous, but outright moronic. Just plain stupid. That said, it is also hilariously funny. I've only seen a few episodes, though. My favorite moment I;ve seen is when all the handicapped guys make a mega-man to get into the restaurant :XD: Command the Murderous Chalices!

Adam007 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Enough with the Show>another show>another show's. Any thread about family guy or the simpsons or anything always has to get those dumb comparisons. And honestly nobody cares which shows you prefer over family guy and which you think aren't as good. Not one person. To the point - I love family guy for the reason you're not so sure about it. Just because it's so edgy and offensive. In a world where everyone is so uptight about always saying things the right way, it's a breath of fresh air. The last season hasn't been as great as others, but I still stick with it and love the show even though a lot of my friends have stopped watching new episodes because they think it's gotten worse. Although there isn't much plot to most episodes, I still love the style of the jokes and the sense of humor to the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrington Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I can see how they find it offensive, but people need to stop being so PC. It's a show, have a laugh. In a nutshell really... if the Politically Correct brigade had their way, there'd be no TV, no music, nothing much of anything really. Just chill, tune out your moral centre... and enjoy. Best animated show since Simpsons really... and even exceeds that in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retefael Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 My verdict? Freakin' sweet. But really, Family Guy does have some pretty dumb humor, but people need to lighten up and realize it's a COMEDY, and that it's going to offend people, but they need to realize that the writers for Family Guy AREN'T SERIOUS about the material they write. They're not out there to offend people, they're out there to make people laugh.

Nadril Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I still find it funny. It's not really a great cartoon, but it is entertaining. Thats the way I feel about it. If I want to watch a good animated show with substance I'd watch something like futurama. Family guy still has made me probably laugh the hardest at some scenes however.

Futurama Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Love it. Don't take this too harshly anyone, but my personal opinion is that all religions are pointless anyway, so the PC thing doesn't bother me. JUST A PERSONAL OPINION THOUGH AND NOT PREACHING THIS VIEW TO OTHERS! Don't start quoting me and stuff :P Family guy is great yeah, though season 6 lacked a little I felt, aswell as the movie. Definately one of the best, when something can rival The Simpsons and Futurama you know it's good. Lacks in storyline a lot, and the ideas are maybe a little tired, but it's not really about that anyway, just the jokes! *strokes season 1-6 box sets* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrrell9 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I love family guy at the moment. Feel bad saying it, but the offensive bits often make it funnier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
