Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Tags: None

It was like they went, "How can we make Family Guy, without it being Family Guy. Let's make the character's into their opposites, but instead of a talking dog, we'll have an alien with the voice of Paul Lynde, and a gold fish who lusts after the mother instead of a baby trying to kill the mother."

No there wasn't.Thing is, there was some grounding in reality with Family Guy."Spirit merges with matter to sanctify the universe. Matter transcends to return to spirit. The interchangeability of matter and spirit means the starlit magic of the outermost life of our universe becomes the soul-light magic of the innermost life of our self." - Dennis Kucinich, candidate for the U. S. presidency
"That’s the future of the Democratic Party: providing Republicans with a number of cute (but not that bright) comfort women." - Adam Yoshida, Canada's gift to the world

I think there were about 4 good jokes about of about 1000 attempts. Part of the problem is that almost every line was supposed to be a joke.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

No, that not quite true. Timing is an important part of Humor. The best jokes are set up from normal situations. Like the beginning of a Sienfeld episode, setting the stage for later jokes. By the end of the show, yes almost every line is a joke, but a lot of setup has gone into it. This show had 0 setup so most of the jokes had no chance.Originally posted by General Ludd
So it's just like everything else on TV, is what you're saying?It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

Some of the best social commentary is made better by cartoons. Look at the Simpsons. It's much easier to point out the absurdity of a policiy, politician, etc., with a cartoon. It's just that its very easy to do it wrong.Originally posted by Harry Tuttle
Social commentary from a cartoon is lamo.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

For shows like this, it's always best to wait until the 4th or 5th episode to see what the final product will be like.
After watching it, I give it 2.5 seasons before it dies.
I also think that the Family Guy revival will be disappointing. give that about 2 or 3 seasons before that's canned.If you look around and think everyone else is an *******, you're the *******.
