If there's one thing I find nauseating in this world, it's television shows with morals. Or, more correctly I might say, television shows with morals that clash with my own. Admit it- if you disagreed with the legalization of marijuana, you'd find it pretty tough to sit through the episode of Family Guy all about it.
Family Guy tends to moralize stuff a lot- I think they try to be very South Park about it, but they do it completely wrong. Where South Park has only ever tried to instill common sense into their viewers, Family Guy is as liberal as possible- pro-abortion, pro-dope, pro-Obama, pro-ethnic diversity, yadda yadda yadda.
They're political about it, and that's what ruins it for me. I never liked the show that much, anyway, it has the worst jokes of all time, and the characters are so unlikable it's frustrating. No wonder they were cancelled twice.
I'm not saying South Park is better- I'd never say that (although I certainly think it). But they don't foist political propaganda on me, and at least it's not shitty one-liner after shitty one-liner. They have, you know, plots. Which I don't think Family Guy knows how to write.
The only episode of Family Guy I like is the Fat Guy Strangler episode.
Because Robert Downey, Jr. is in it.
I also feel bad because Matt and Trey won't have anybody on their show- celebrities, you know? Because they don't want to have to be nice to them. You know, "Oh, I had soandso on my show, now I can't make fun of them". They want every door open, and it's stupid that celebrities can't make fun of themselves.
You know Kanye West is still pissed about the Gay Fish episode.
