When I stopped being 8

Family Guy was tripe from the beginning

>>86831657

I like how nobody stops the rape.

>>86831657
I still think some jokes are funny and I still watch it. Am I a bad person?
>>
>>86831657
Never did which feels pretty damn good. I feel like that 1 guy smiling in a room of people mad at the world

Post season 5. I specifically remember the episode in season 7 where Peter got a retarded horse, and all the jokes were centered around how the horse just did looked stupid. That was the moment Family Guy hit rock bottom after a long 2-season decline.
>>
>>86831769

Screw it I'm gonna go watch it.
>>
It was always hit and miss. Some jokes were terrible, others were alright.

I still like the Helm of Disintegration one.
>>
>big brown bull
it's like a /tv/ meme in animated form

So long that I get caught off guard by how old the last episode I remember watching "new" was
>>
>>86831657

how many times has peter been raped?
>>
>>86831657
Quagmire taking the shit out of Brian, like he wasn't a huge hypocrite during the whole damn thing.
>>
It never started
I never did that much weed
>>
To be honest I never found it funny, even when I was 14 I thought it was meh
>>
The OJ Simpson episode. I'm even sure what they were going for.
>>
>>86831657
Never, I still laugh at it to this day.

>>86831737
No are there some good jokes in there but there are more shitty ones. Some friends and I watched an episode an only counted six good jokes.
>>
>>86831737
well I liked the k-pop episode

The worst thing about family guy is the effect it had (has?) on the kids.
>>
>>86833115
what like reference humor?
>>
>>86831689
Pretty much. The first three seasons were boring, the rest are overtly awful.
>>
>>86832393
Well, you have a shit sense of humor
>>
>>86831689
It had its moments every now and then but it was never much better than another Simpsons knockoff until it got canned. The fans asking for it to come back made the biggest monkey paw wish of all time.
>>
>>86831657
More than 10 years ago, around the same time South Park stopped being funny.

>>86831737
I would never willingly watch it but to say it's never ever funny isn't really true.

The show occasionally makes decent jokes and even whole decent episode but the bad episodes are just really, REALLY bad.
>>
>>86831890
They were pretty fucked up looking puppies.
>>
>>86832538
Seemed like an odd way to get rid of a character.
>>
>>86834238
Well yeah; even a broken clock is right twice a day. I can get a laugh out of the odd joke every now and again but it just isn't worth sitting through an entire episode for.

why didnt she die instead
>>
>>86831657
Around 2010. Part of it probably had to do with the retards who spewed quotes nonstop in one of my high school classes every time a new episode aired.

When Chris-Chan started referencing it.

>Family Guy was tripe from the beginning
This.
Caught some early episodes yesterday, and it's literally just jokes from actually funny films but with animation painted on it.
>>
>>86831657
I had really never considered the show funny, I honestly use to watch out of habit more then anything, but I fully gave up on it when it showed that its idea of a joke was wasting about 1/6 of an episode playing a music video and the only joke was that "lol it's gay". They didn't even have the decency to animate it. They just played a music video and called it gay.
>>
Hey Lois, remember that time Quagmire murdered The Simpsons?
>>
>>86831657
Season 4-ish? There was an episode where Chris goes to some place with indigenous people and because he's tired of being a freshman. I stopped right there, it just wasn't funny.
>>
>>86831657

It was never funny Anon.
>>
The only thing that has made me laugh post season 3 is the Dirty Harry bit with the leprechaun.

>>86837144
you're sense of humor confuses me
>>
>>86831657
When it came back. All the decent writers went to American Dad (and they're still there), and you're left with a bunch of people who think a joke being dark and tasteless is funny in itself without setting it up, and you can just make characters do whatever the fuck you want for a particular scene. Very little effort.
>>
>>86831737
They spent years running a comedy show. Broken clock is right at least twice a day. I don't find it worth how much shit any laughable jokes are covered in.
>>
Around the time the writters tried to make quagmire seem like a good person, like giving him an abused sister.

Like really? we are just forget he is pretty much a rapist?

When it got popular
>>
>>86831657
around the time Family Guy had to start laughing at their own jokes.

They don't do it often, but they do it often enough. Whenever they tell a really weak joke they have someone in the scene laugh for you.

>Quagmire: you know what would come out if I had sex right now? A little flag that says 'bang!'
>Joe: Haaa!
>>
I really just grew out of it after I didn't have cable for a few years.
>>
>>86833115
oh god. I remember kids in middle school bullying jewish kids for no reason, and repeating the jokes.

shit was pretty bad.

Though it's not the shows fault at all, just shitty parenting.
>>
>>86831700
I liked the big black udders bit
>>
>>86831769
this. Seriously, what the fuck
>>
hard to say for me. I still enjoy the earlier seasons, and even season 4 is pretty funny when they returned. Prob when it got canceled again and came back. Seems soul less. There's no heart or originality in the delivery anymore.
>>
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, CONWAY TWITTY.
>>
>>86832352
I think they were using it just so they can throw in a "WE DONT LIKE YOU SIMPSON" joke near the end.
>>
since "Death Has a Shadow"
>>
>>86831657
When it was revived.
>>
When it stopped doing cut-away gags. You know they were a bit over-used and shit but like, I actually enjoyed the cut aways sometimes it's better than this garbage they put out in context.

"Baby is gay, but pretends not to be. Husband and wife have a strained marriage and secretly mention divorce to one another all the time. Husband is now pedophile. Everything and everyone is mean spirited and shitty to one another."

Like it's just... shit. I watched the most current episode they were on federal hill doing italian shit, jokes are going off. Then out of nowhere, what is supposed to seem like to be a joke is a plot progression point.

They are becoming so bad at separating jokes from plot that you can't tell anymore. Something that looks so cartoonish and dumb, it's actually part of plot.
