Why did Family Guy abandon these characters?

>>90897772
Brian's cousin was basically gay blackface. Did Seth actually think gay people would like him?

Didn't the one in the top right die?

Because the majority of family guy's audience is highschoolers that did not grow up with the first 3 seasons. In fact, they think the first 3 are boring. So, there is no reason to revive characters that were only known in the first 3 seasons.

According to the DVD commentaries, the writing staff really hated Paddy for some reason so they killed him off.

Don't you ever check e621?

Give me one good explanation as to how those characters aren't ALL one-trick ponies.

Furries aren't real people anon

They sound like more of a buzzkill the Buzz Killington.

"Character" is kind of a strong word for these guys.

>Paddy
Who?

I'll tell you why: The characters were awful! Nothing but pointless gags to make up for the runtime. Gags like this: I'll skip double-Dutch with these kids. One-two-three-...*crash*
Johnny, Vamp! VAMP!

You read that in his voice and heard the piano

None of this is true

Except it is?

the short guy with red hair. big whoop, wanna fight about it?

I liked him. Brian's cousin was one of my favorites.
As for that list though, Brian's cousin and greased up deaf guy are the only ones deserving of return.

The portuguese and irish midget were never funny.
Old fashioned weight lifters and buzz killington were funny only once.

Mike Judge hated the character.
The gang never uses the boat anymore.
Worn out joke.
No idea how to handle him in current episodes.
Worn out joke.
Joke only exists of he's at a function, which is not likely given the amount of times he's ruined Peter's fun.

Why does no one bring up Lois' siblings? One was a one-episide character and the other married Mayor West. Also Bertram.

>>90897772
The fighting ginger guy died, and the Portuguese guys aren't relevant because Peter isn't a fisherman anymore.

>>90902558
Oh I didn't even know he had a name

Actually, Patrick was in at least one other episode. It also had Barry from American Dad.

Peter says the Portuguese guys were abandoned because no one knew what a Portuguese was.
