The Cleveland show??[views:5613][posts:71]_____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 10:35am - Josh_Martin ""] Just heard about this http://www.fox.com/programming/shows/new/cleveland.htm [img] |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 10:36am - the_reverend ""] wow... |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 10:39am - Kadooganaut ""] boo. "hey guys, we can only cram 17,000 pop culture references into 20 minutes of show, let's do a spin off." boo again. |
| ________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 10:43am - xmikex ""] I hope this is a joke. |
| _________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 10:45am - Martins ""] lol at the fat one being a smaller black version of Peter. I like Family Guy but I don't think this is necessary. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 10:52am - Josh_Martin ""] I wish they did the Quagmire show instead. That would be too dirty for network tv I guess. |

| _________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 11:17am - W3 nli ""] wow. |
| ___________________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 12:21pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] as if American Dad wasnt shitty enough |
| _____________________________ [Sep 3,2008 12:38pm - mOe ""] I dig American Dad a lot. Sometimes more than Family Guy. |
| _______________________________ [Sep 3,2008 12:39pm - Pires ""] does cleveland eve have a wife? honestly, i stopped caring about family guy. i'll watch it if nothing else is on, but this shit just got so stale, so quick. maybe it's the constant references that Murph says. someone needs to shut that boy up so i can enjoy my family guy again. |
| ______________________________ [Sep 3,2008 12:48pm - Yeti ""] Family Guy sucks, and this will suck worse. |
| _________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 12:59pm - oscarct ""] I dig alot of the family guy episodes, but I cant deal with alot of the jokes |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 1:03pm - orgymf@work ""] Josh_Martin said:I wish they did the Quagmire show instead. That would be too dirty for network tv I guess. I fully agree. I read an interview with McFarland, he said he won't do a Quagmire show because the censors would make it un-fucking-watchable. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 1:09pm - Josh_Martin ""] I've noticed that most people who don't like Family guy are too young to get most of the references. Funniest show on tv next to Southpark |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 1:09pm - Josh_Martin ""] . |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 1:09pm - Josh_Martin ""] . |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 1:20pm - orgymf@work ""] I actually like it more than South Park. I half agree with you, I think half of the people who dislike the show are those who are too young to "get it".......the other half is made up of old people and easily offended liberals. |
| ________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 1:22pm - W3 nli ""] think so, hardly dood. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 1:23pm - orgymf@work ""] ?? |
| ________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 1:27pm - W3 nli ""] the ole question mark routine huh, i'll show you. @@ C --- |
| _____________________________ [Sep 3,2008 1:28pm - Yeti ""] i definitely don't agree with that. i think the show is fucking retarded and does nothing but stand on the shoulders of the geniuses who paved the way for them. yes, i have laughed at it, i thought the movie was funny, but it wasn't because it had substance or offered anything smart. the show relies on shock and irrelevance for laughs. at least South Park has awesome writing and meaning. |
| ________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 1:30pm - W3 nli ""] yes south park the cartoon with meaning. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 1:34pm - orgymf@work ""] substance? smart? douche! hah dirtbag comedy is usually overlooked as being nothing but shock, but is usually actually very clever (eg. Family Guy, South Park, stand-up comics like Jim Norton and Artie Lange). The random cut-away shit is very original. the jokes are brilliant, the show is well written, and (unlike South Park) they don't fag out/copout by apologising with an "I've learned something today" at the end of every single episode |

I wouldnt go that far. Very good show, but brilliant,no. |
| ________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 2:31pm - oscarct ""] and that whole cut away gag is so over used on family guy that it has lost any humor or impact. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 2:36pm - orgymf@work ""] examples Peter pretending to be James Woods "My new movie is a feel good comedy about the twin towers called September 11'th Two Thousand Fun" brilliant Quagmire "i need card to apologise for giving someone V.D." Peter "ah, here we go, sorry i accidentally gave you an S.T.D." Quagmire "Accidental huh? well if that's all ya got" brilliant random guy "hey, want some gum?" random guy 2 "sure, thanks" random guy "haha! that's trick gum! now you're addicted to heroin!" brilliant. Chris as Luke Skywalker "I Got One!!!!" Peter as Han Solo "Great Kid, Don't Get Penisy!" i could go on. |
| ________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 2:37pm - W3 nli ""] "i'll cut you man, i'll cut you so bad you wish you never been cut so bad before." |

Family Guy is re-hashed, repetitious, annoying-as-fuck, and on Fox. |

Now it's nothing but filler, and a whole lotta filler at that. |

Don't get me wrong, I still love that first run of Family Guy, but once it came back, boo. I was a big fan of family guy when it was on its first run, but ever since it has come back it has been dumbed down considerably. I still think its clever, but its been on a steady decline. I have to say though, that first season they came back sucked all kinds of man dick. but most i have seen since have been pretty good. |

There is no quality on family guy, no point, just half assed jokes that rarely hit the mark. family is such an overrated show.\ family guy = the metallica of tv. |

Family Guy is re-hashed, repetitious, annoying-as-fuck, and on Fox. family guy is very original....re-using stupid culture references, is pretty funny....while the word-for-word rip-offs are unoriginal, the use of them is something no-one else ever did the way they did. and all the original dialogue that the cut-aways are put in between is hysterical......nothing re-hashed or repetitious about it |

Have you watched South Park past the first season? One word: IMAGINATIONLAND.

| _____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 2:51pm - orgymf@work ""] ok....i saw imaginationland. yeah it was funny...so what i'm not saying south park isn't funny i'm saying a south park fan calling family guy unoriginal is like me calling someone else fat. south park = dirty jokes + a lesson at the end so comedy central doesn't get fcc fines. yes, i will agree, it is the metallica of tv....if you mean the "Kill Em All/Ride The Lightning/Master of Puppets" era |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 2:53pm - orgymf@work ""] how about this...... instead of wasting anymore time arguing about whose opinion of which immature humour show is better and more original, we just stop bickering like retards. i disagree with anyone who dislikes family guy. i don't care who disagrees with me on the subject period |

I compare them to metallica because fans are still waiting for them to be good again, but will continue to support it no matter how much absolute bullshit they release. |
