Anyways, early on, Family Guy did directly copy some scenes from the Simpsons

No you tard, he thinks Family Guy plagiarizes the Flinstones.

Anyway, it's an ironic joke since they are fully aware the Simpsons also copies the Flinstones.

tl;dr it's a prank bro

>>91090771
source?

You dumb fuck. Matt and Seth like each other and often would tell each other when they'd make awful jokes about each other before hand to see how they'd react.

>>91090690
It's a running joke that Family Guy ripped off The Simpsons.

Family Guy even makes this joke at the end of their 3rd Star Wars special.

>>91090690
Does Seth really believe that it would be ok to have quagmire rape marge, and murder homer?

>>91091031
marrrrrrrge you're breaking my heaaaart

>>91091031

It's ok, when that happened Marge had been a zombie for years.

>>91091031
>rape
>then consesual
>Then Murders Homer
>Marge
>Lisa
>Bart
>then Maggie
If he had made Maggie Kill Quagmire it would have been allowed.

>>91090690
It's a joke, Seth.

>>91091103
Just search it anon.

Google is your friend.

They also had a gag where they rejoiced that they finally came up with a plot before Simpsons.

>>91090690

See, Groening and MacFarlane know each other well.

Perhaps because of this, the Simpsons crew thought they were in a friendly rival with the Family Guy people, so they made this mild joke, which amounts to 'you have one idea and it came from us' level teasing.

The Family Guy crew didn't take the joke as well as the Simpsons folks thought they would and came up with 'Quagmire rapes Marge and murders the family' as a response.

Groening expressed his dismay over this to MacFarlane. MacFarlane agreed it was a step too far.

The end.

I doubt this is true. Family Guy is an edgy show so their idea of friendly rivalry would also be edgy.

>>91090909
What? I didn't really get a sense the writers were including themselves in this joke about plagiarism

>>91090690
You call that petty when Seth did shit like this.

that's not really funny.

>>91090690
Did you watch the hour crossover special the Family Guy writers themself wrote?

It's not just "animated sitcom", many characters are ripped off too

>>91092015
I laughed.

>>91090690
even Family Guy believes this though

>>91094427
Yes it does.

More like "Wait Till Your Father Gets Home"

It is now that your ass is bleeding over it

Or you just don't have a sense of dark humor. Lisa getting shot is the most satisfying part.
