Ugh, what a horrid episode.

Although I REALLY hate any episode involving Brian's romance life.

Yeah, Family Guy is just intolerable now. I used to enjoy it, I'll confess to that, but over the last two years I've become more and more disgusted by the very formula that Val pointed out a couple of posts ago. As well, it just isn't very funny, and the whole point is for it to be this hilarious frat-party supercomedy. It isn't even at that level anymore. No, it's now below frat boys. MacFarlane, how far you have fallen.

Think I've seen the end of that. Did Brian go all, "NO ONE LIKES YOU, GOD WOULDN'T DO THIS TO YOU"?

^ Basically.

If you want more of the same kind of fun, watch the pot episode sometime.

what a girly pdn wrote:The episode where Meg becomes a Christian is really bad.
I haven't seen that episode, but the descriptor of "Meg becomes a Christian" just serves to illustrate one of the problems with the show. From episode one, THE GRIFFIN FAMILY HAS BEEN CATHOLIC AND HAS BEEN ATTENDING CHURCH REGULARLY!!!!!!!!!!

So, if Meg's already a Christian, what exactly is the point here? Does this show have any cohesiveness left at all, or is it just a big jumble of fart jokes and offensive slurs?

Well for once Seth is right (...I feel dirty now...) there alot of diffrences between Prodistents and Cathlics then you have all the diffrent factions of Prodistents as well. So as much of an ass as Seth is we have to give him this one.

There are many different denominations of Christianity, one of which is Catholicism. If Meg is already Catholic, then she can become a different type of Christian like Protestant or Baptist, but she can't become a Christian, because, as a Catholic, she's already a Christian.

She simpaly could have been paying lip service I mean come on Brain went to Services with the rest of the family and let's net forget about the episode where Peter claimed himself as a god. Gah Defending Seth MacFarlane it just feels so, wrong. Seth Green on the other hand doesn't cause said reaction.

That's all I've seen of Family Guy from day one.

And nothing I've seen in the show has led me to believe otherwise.

While King of the hill would occasionally reach out and punch me for thinking it was nothing but disgusting things happening to Hank with some sort of unexpected moral or societal dilemma, all I see is ads of Family Guy with characters vomiting everywhere.

That's about as funny as colon cancer to me.

Actually, I think they did an episode of Family Guy where colon cancer was the joke.

King of the Hill is where Mike Judge went to kill his career, imo.

KotH was one of the most clever shows on TV in recent years, imo.

I like to catch a rerun of KotH from time to time, but for me it was a grower; I initially absolutely hated it, but when I gave it a better chance I found myself amused.

Well, his career must have put up quite a fight, because it took thirteen seasons to kill it.

The Goode Family didn't even make it one, however.
