When did Family Guy stop being funny?
It's always been hit-or-miss.
>>150304916Whoever wrote Homer being raped by a panda in the Simpsons had to have been responsible for this "joke" too.
>>150304916It never stopped. It BECAME funny past season 3 and continued from there. It's the animated post-modern Monty Python, the whole point is the funnt skits or meta cutaways.
>>150304916S1E1
For me, it's hard to pinpoint an exact moment. I want to say it was more of a decline over the years. That episode where Meg stood up for herself, but then reverted back to being the punching bag was one of the moments that made me not like it. I'm not going to sperg about Seth MacFarlane. He's a talented and smart guy, I just wish he put more effort into his cash cow series.
>>150304916Would be hot if it was a female cow
Only the episodes in 4:3 are funny throughout. The rest of the series is only watchable through cherrypicked gags. Middle seasons (9-14) are full of tryhard shock humor for 13 year olds. Newer seasons are just fucking boring because theyve exhausted all the plots and are too pussy to write a joke thatd actually be funny
>>150304944wtf
>>150306699Why is Season 15 the cut-off point for Family Guy's 'middle seasons'?
Season 4, when they started doing the self-aware ad-libbing shit.
Season 11 is when Seth went full hands off from the writing team, the decline in quality is immediately noticeable.
>>150308542Just as the simpsons.Season 10 is the deadline
>>150304916The moment you watched an episode of american dad
>>150304916When you stopped laughing
>>150309145Smart.
when it became exceptionally gay, incest-y, started doing actual gore, and started padding episodes with obnoxiously long skits, notably the conway twitty shitSo around season 6-7
>>150304916cute pete feet
>>150304944Too few
>>150307809You seem awfully defensive of male rape there, almost like you love it, disgusting queer
>>150310231>woah we got an edgy badass over here
>>150306699>muh 4:3 The first HD ep already proves you wrong
>>150306574>I just wish he put more effort into his cash cow series. I think he should be free to focus on the project(s) of his choosing. Seth already did his part by building the foundation; now it's up to the present writers to carry that torch.
>>150307809This is funnyhttps://youtu.be/kmdNGCmYFvc?si=VQ5xZO6_vZIPvpyxhttps://youtu.be/FnXqg0_XMwM?si=j3ELsdH2Bo7lz1kxThose ones... Are meh.
>>150309615>conway twitty Bingo
>>150304916No sitcom, animated or live action, has stayed strong for more than 10 years.
>>150309237Even a recent episode can bring about 1 or 2 laughs
>>150304916>When did Family Guy stop being funny?First second of S1E1
>>150314801B-but you'd be missing out on Whoa Ass Ahoy!
>>150304916can't really think of a particular pointthe good jokes just got less and less after the revivalI think whenever the big rise in "relatable" jokes started would be that point, fucking hate those
>>150316602>"relatable" jokes Can't relate. Those are some of my favorite jokes from modern FG
>>150304916...
>>150305354Seasons 1 and 2 are fantastic, you fucking retard.Especially 1.>>150304916Around Season 6 is where the quality really starts to drop off.Theres the occasional good episode, and often even good jokes, even to now.But the first 5-ish seasons were legitimately damn good television.
The show was never funny. It got cancelled once for a reason.
>>150304916Is that a heckin rape joke? Better NOT cancel it!
>>150306574I feel like Stewie should be Dio instead of Polnareff
>>150304916Season 8, when Steve Callaghan became showrunner and turned the show into a gorefest.
>>150320405Glad to know there's a name we can attach the blame to.
>>150308435Yep, seasons 1 thru about 3 was just a raunchier parody of typical family sitcom stuff and had some pretty good jokes out of it
>>150304916>When did Family Guy stop being funny?It was supposed to be funny?
>>150319978It was good before that
>>150320376Should've been Joe for obvious reasons
Never was funnyThe Simpsons had a golden age that everyone loves but family guy always have been shit.
>>150322135>Never was funnyWrong.
>>150304916after its first cancellation and subsequent return
>>150319968>Seasons 1 and 2 are fantasticNo they fucking weren't you imbecile. Rewatch them.
>>150304916this shit always been trash, fuck outta here
