I LOVE the flashbacks! The references are often classic and occasionaly cryptic! I love selective humor

they are doing it more and more now. They are also sort of forcing a lot of them too, to the point where they make little/no sense and arn't funny.Originally posted by: Terracosmo
"More lately"? It's always been like that. It's the FG trademark. And it's funny.

Ex. "This is better than the time I got to ride the washing machine." -not really funny
"This is worse than the time I played marco-polo with helen keller." - just stewie swinging around
And the series has resorted to pulling in old characters, like the fighting chicken, greased up deaf guy, and other people. It's like they arn't coming up with anything new.
Well, I haven't really noticed that they are doing those more now than they did before. And I've always thought some of them are less funny. So yeah... I don't think there's a decay taking place.
Also, what's wrong with reoccuring characters? I happen to be a fan of that, makes the FG universe look bigger too.

Yeah, I agree that they should. Or at least have more of the characters be reoccuring. Like Mort Goldman, he started out by making a few cameos, but now he's almost a part of Peter's gang.

I love the family Guy, and hate American Dad, Its just not funny. nuf said.
When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments. Here was a machine of precision and balance for the convenience of man. And (unlike subsequent inventions for man's convenience) the more he used it, the fitter his body became. Here, for once, was a product of man's brain that was entirely beneficial to those who used it, and of no harm or irritation to others. Progress should have stopped when man invented the bicycle. ~Elizabeth West, Hovel in theHills

they should have a loretta comeback.
LaZie made this...a long time ago.

I hate Loretta. She's in the background for the entire series then just turns out to be a bitch.
They should bring back Cleveland Jr, at least that kid is funny (albeit rather irritating). Where was he during the Cleveland/Loretta ordeal anyway?
I never liked Clevland Jr. He was way way too annoying.
Also, the Greased up Deaf guy is turning out to be one of my favorite characters! I wish they had more of him, Mort and of course Clevland.
I agree that alot of the random flashbacks are getting forced and sometimes aren't all that humorous. I don't know if they're running out of ideas or are just getting sloppy with the delivery. Feels like they could do it better then always having a character say "Remember the last time when..."

family guy is the best, american dad is pretty much boring to me
Tonights episode was really kickass:
"A pig that won't eat Jews?"
"Oh you just got jacked up bitch!"
"I'll be in the basement."
Nice mocks on the Gilmore Girls, Alive! and Alfred Hitchcock too!

Can't wait for tomorrow, hopefully there will be a torrent up for us non-americans by then.
The funny part was that Lois was about to "Take Brian around the world"(if you get my drift) and he stupidly breaks up with her a day before it happens

American Dad S02 E02
Comments.
American Dad was so-so. Not my favorite episode so far, but it was decent.
Family Guy was freakin' ON FIRE! One of the best episodes so far, definitely. They finally decided to bring back some more old characters (they should do that more often). I mean seriously, golden scenes with that small guy who always says "wanna fight about it?", Death, the old pedophile guy, and so on. Oh and the black weather guy. LOL @ hurricane rupaul. Oh and of course Adam West, his scenes are always the best. Man I love that guy.
But what really had me was that "I have never" game they did on the boat. That was fun because me and mates do that a lot too, and Quagmire had done all of those things lol.
But yeah, awesome episode.
Family Guy S05 E03
American Dad S02 E03
Post more you fuckers!
once again the family guy episode was terrible.
I laughed a few times at american dad.
AD was pretty funny, I liked the parody on the Star Wars kid.
FG was good too. Some of the flashbacks were too long, but the cliffhanger was interesting. Will Meg die? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
"You are just using this place to run away from your problems!"
"What are you talking about, Meg is right here"
LOL the Meg jokes are so good. Also when everybody hung up the phone when she answered.
Nice to see Peter get a new job at last, too.
Family guy has retained it's quality. For me nothing will ever outdo the first few minutes of first episode once it returned back on the air. When Peter listed every single show fox had cancelled since family guy was on the air.
But common american dad just plain sucks. Maybe it will illicit a chuckle from me but the premise is far to narrow to actually be used for a wide array of comedic material. All AD really is is a large number of discarded republican jokes glued together to create a new series. Most of the time the show just tries way to hard to be funny and the jokes fall flat. That's just my opinion anyway but family guy is still good, AD just dosen't have a reason to exist other then for Seth Macfarlene to carry out his vendetta against the republicans.
