How can one man create such brilliance and such trash?
I've been watching old Family Guy episodes lately and I've forgotten how truly bad they are. American Dad's pacing, characterization, and just overall gags are top notch compared to Family Guy's. I think I get one solid laugh per episode on Family Guy, and that's if it's a funny episode. Meanwhile American Dad has me rolling the entire time, even if it's an episode I've already seen.
I know this is me taking my opinion as fact, but surely other people agree?
Discuss AD vs FG.

They're both shit, you're just wrong

imho AD is far superior to FG. But I wouldn't say the fault lies completely with Seth. I no for a fact I've seen threads that throw this thought out there. They usually end when someone says " Lol Faggot >>implying Seth works on either show."
Personally I wonder if this argument is valid, in my head canon it works.
The simple truth AD is less "lolsorandom" and more traditional, ten years ago i wrote it off, but now I love it.

1- Writters have ups and downs, works that are better than others.
Seth had a great time on Cartoon Network, he basically made the best Jonnhy Bravo episodes. The quality can fluctuate.
>There is also the fact that early episodes of Family Guy had him in charge, and that he stoped writting for the show many seasons ago.
He focused more on American Dad because it was kind of his pet project for a time.

I did not know he worked on Johnny Bravo.
Seriously, this will cause my autistic friends heads to explode, lol.

>Seth makes AD to be his political soapbox
>Nobody watches
>Makes FG his soapbox instead
>AD writers are now free to make actual jokes
That's my theory anyway.

makes a lot of sense.

>Makes FG his soapbox instead
>character voiced by seth makes fun of a character voiced by seth who happens to share the same opinion as seth
>people still think he's involved with the show for soapboxing instead of just cashing check

American Dad was good in the early seasons but it's utter garbage now.
Family Guy was decent when it started but it quickly derailed into shit after un-cancellation
Thank god someone else sees that family guy always sucked. I always see people bitch about how family guy used to be so good and that the early episodes were great, when in reality they're just... bad.

What do you consider the "early" seasons? Because I think American dad's first couple of seasons are passable but everything from 3-8 is gold. Seasons 9+ are mostly watchable too.
Family Guy has been pretty bad almost the whole time.
