What Happend to Family Guy?

[Prison Mike]

speaking of "bird is the word"...

Lol I always love watching the voices come out of Seth and Alex. It's so trippy. Really digging the special. It's very old school. Need more of this kind of thing. So sick of hospital/cop dramas, game shows, and "reality" shows.

 

[CELTICPRED]

This episode was actually really really funny.

The poop comment from Meg and Peter's reaction was one of the funniest things the show has done.

And the duel.

 

[Dude101]

That was eh wasn't that funny.

Lol I just bought King Kong this weekend too. Two disc edition for only $4.99

 

[FilmNerdJamie]

Yeah, that second episode was surprisingly awesome. Speaking of ****, Cleveland Show is on now...

 

[CELTICPRED]

Wait, there were 2 episodes?

 

[FilmNerdJamie]

Yeah, 2 new episodes premiered tonight. One before and one after the MacFarlane Variety special.

Okay, I finally gave in and decided to watch The Cleveland Show. After 15 minutes, it is easily one of the worst shows I have ever watched. It is practically a black version of Family Guy, which I knew it was. It is the exact same...only horrible. I will never EVER watch that show again. It is terrible, absolutely crap. I hated last season of Family Guy but this is 1000000 times worse than that. Kill this show.

 

[CELTICPRED]

Crap.

 

[Dr. Evil]

It's McFarlane-O-Mania tonight. No Simpsons this week.

 

[YoungE808]

Cleveland Show is awesome.

 

[Prison Mike]

I thought both episodes were pretty good. I especially liked the first one.

 

[chaseter]

Cleveland Show is awesome.

I hope you are young, like 13.

 

[Dude101]

I dig the Cleveland show. I think its got a black vibe I really like about it. Its also got more heart. I think its like the Simpsons,Family Guy and a good black sitcom combined.
Its funny, has, and heart.

 

[YoungE808]

Ha no, I do enjoy the show though. I do not understand how you thought it was going to be any different from Family Guy since Seth and Mike Henry are involved...

I mean really. Family Guy, American Dad, but Cleveland Show was going to be any different?

 

[Dude101]

I hope you are young, like 13.

Or maybe he just likes the show

 

[chaseter]

I wouldn't care if the show was mediocre to alright. It is terrible.

btw American Dad is way better than this. Seth and co have become Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer. Keep it up guys!

 

[YoungE808]

And why do you think it's so terrible?

 

[Dude101]

Really enjoy the show this week. Love the ending.

Why do you care so much then if he likes it.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Family Guy was hilarious with Peter kicking Lucy and Chris fishing out Aquaman, but the Live Comedy show was horrible IMO.

 

[SouLeSS]

Roadhouse.

 

[chaseter]

Why do you care so much then if he likes it.

I don't care if anybody likes it. I am just shocked that someone does. Is caring so much posting in here about it like three times I just asked if he was a young teen, which would explain to me why he might like it. Because, I cannot figure out why anybody would love a show that is a lamer copy of Family Guy but with black main characters, unmemorable characters, and unfunny jokes.

It's getting terrible reviews so I know I am not crazy or just bitter:

This is one of the laziest shows that I have ever seen in my life. It appears to have been written in about 10 seconds, on the back of a urinal cake, in urine. Cleveland and his son leave the fictional town of Quahog for California, but stop on the way in Cleveland's hometown of Stoolbend, Virginia. GET IT? Because Virginia has had a long tradition of fine furniture craftsmanship, but also POOP. And that is the "wit" of this show. Here is some of the "comedy":
Cleveland: It means you've gotta take chances in life to find true happiness.
Son: That sounds gay.
Cleveland: Gays are smart, just look at how many lines Gene Hackman has been able to memorize over the years.
THAT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE ANY SENSE. I mean, in addition to the boring homophobia, and the lame attempt at disguising that homophobia with a nonsensical compliment that isn't a compliment (gays are smart because of their ability to memorize sentences?), the worst part of this joke is actually the fact that GENE HACKMAN IS CONSIDERED A LEGITIMATE POP CULTURE TARGET. It's 2009, what are we even talking about here? Between this and the Kathleen Turner diss, by the time the show gets to a character based on Kevin Federline (named Federline Jones) that actually feels RELEVANT AND TOPICAL. Not that the non pop-cultural references are any better. "The office said they'd reimburse me for the gas mileage out there, and with gas prices these days, right your own punchline." Ugh. Gas jokes? And also NO. YOU WRITE THE PUNCHLINE. THAT IS WHAT THAT 100 MILLION DOLLARS WAS FOR. There's also a "joke" about genital mutilation. It goes like this:
Cleveland's Love Interest: I don't know what to do.
Cleveland: Have you considered genital mutilation?
Cleveland's Love Interest: What?
Cleveland: Haha, I'm joking.
?

If saying "how can you like this?" is caring so much, I would hate to look up your posts and find you doing the same thing That is my rant on this show. I regret wasting my time watching it. I gave it a chance, it was terrible.

I missed tonight's Family Guy eps but since everyone said they were good, I will catch these on hulu

 

[FilmNerdJamie]

the Live Comedy show was horrible IMO.

Bless you.
