They had the potential to be the new Gumball, but they decided to become Family Guy instead... What happened?
Fear of being reddit made their humor too mundane. The wackiness is usually good, but too rare, and both men are funny when they get weird.
They were always family guy
Honestly the whole "Cartoons doing realistic dialogue" was completely stolen from Family Guy. If you go on Youtube you'll see countless videos of Family Guy scenes where its exactly like a Smiling Friends dialogue. >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkjG7F_zABE>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJn8lK7nygQ
>they had a chance to be niche cartoon for children but instead they decided to be zeitgeist behemot with cult followinguh okay
>>216492028>They had the potential to be the new GumballHas there ever been a faggier, zoomier sentence uttered?
>They had the potential to be the new GumballI can tell you were in elementary school in the mid 2010s
>>216492028https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozUMunvEzTs
>>216492028they make bitchy jokes about celebrities and almost constant jokes about sexualizing a baby?
Why dont they draw themselves ugly gfs
>>216492028>They had the potential to be the new GumbalHuh? Gumball? You are aware you have to be 18 years or older to use this site right?
>>216492028New World Peace*They still added a references which was funny
>>216492361what cameo do you predict next?
>>216492028This show wasn’t worth Zach no longer being a regular on Oneyplays.
>>216492173what's with the new trend of disingenuous arguments that every single new show has to be completely unique and nothing good should ever be done in two places?
I know four employees that I just adoreI'm just so happy I can see them more'Cause we make people smile all dayWe get to playWe get to play
>>216492028I like the episodes which are just internet references. Brothers egg is the obvious one. It’s just a 13 minute YEAR OF THE SPOONY meme poking fun at Spoony and Miles.
>>216492173dr. katz did it first bro
>>216492941yeah but it's subtle about it same with daniel larson and gwimbly looking like him while cameos and being homeless. The lolcows are honestly great premises for episodes and I want one of them to base on off chris chan or iddubz (rat and maggot don't count)
>>216492028Heard that this season introduces a lot of gay shit. is that true?
>>216493171yeah but it's shock humor
>>216493171Its running jokes where people say and do ridiculously homoerotic shit but its keeps getting handwaved or explained as something else, like theres a bit where you see a guy slowly licking another guys stomach and they reveal later that he just dropped some food on him
>>216492185>zeitgeist behemot>cult followingThose are opposing concepts.
I hate the 11 minute episodes, so many of the plots are rushed. I don't care if they just add some more downtime of realistic conversations of whatever, I just want normal sized episodes
>>216492570its especially appropriate here since the showrunners have consistently shat on family guy for doing the same shit they do
>reposting hispanic FB memessad stuff man
>>216493171It was always there, literally the first scene of Allan is him in doggystyle position and later in the episode he sucks on charlies nose
>>216493459it would be appropriate if family guy started the realistic dialog trend, but it didn't, dr. katz did.
>>216493515dr katz was largely improvised and they still made jokes because all the voice actors were talented comedians. its not the same as "the joke is that theyre realistically muttering" like in family guy and smiling friends. an utterly disingenuous comparison.
zach has repeatedly said he fucking loves family guy unironically.
>>216493608i don't think it is disingenuous. i think the patter of dr. kats' improv was exactly what family guy was trying to imitate with their realistic muttering, as it tried to imitate both the simpsons and the critic. i think you only disagree because it dashes the narrative you're trying to create.
awful show with shitty art
>>216493722the therapy sessions in dr katz are essentially animated stand up with the featured comedians and the scenes between reoccurring characters hinge on some sort of comedic context and the actors joke around with it. its fundamentally a different type of comedy, to imply its no different from family guy shit just because its more natural is fucking stupid
>>216493515realistic dialog has always been a thing, it wasn't popularized anything in particular because pretty much all shows used it to some extent
pretty sure this is what they were going for
>>216494223Aqua teen is actually well written and acted though
>>216493777i didn't say it's no different, i said they were trying to imitate it. and nothing you've said has changed my thoughts at all, it's all just splitting hairs. shallow and pedantic in other words.
>>216494223Aqua teen was raw. Smiling friends is reddit & corporate.
Jst watched all episodes. A bit sad that now it's over. Glep was my favorite smiling friends. This was the best show i've watched since Don't Hug Me I'm Scared.
>>216493123How'd you fuck up spelling iDubbbz that bad? Just because you don't like them, doesn't make them a lolcow
>>216492478Especially since be keeps filling the gap with degenerate faggots like Cory
>>216493459No one's buying your bullshit. Your favorite show, Family Guy, is uniquely horrible. No amount of dragging other shows down will change that
>>216494661edups is pretty much a lolcow at this point.
>>216494280>>216494321>Imagine being this gay
>>216494661Its iddubz*
>>216494711Because he made one video with the candyman? I dont care about his e-thot wife
>>216494763Actually the 3 b's has a secret meaning. It's because Ian likes big booty bitches
>>216494667Cory is based because his freakish autism makes fags like you seethe
>>216494819>A degenerate coomer faggot calling anyone a faggot
>>216494781Hi Ian
>>216494870Didn't answer the question, but thanks for playing
>>216494860>implying this website isn't filled with degenerate coomer faggotsIf you don't like the heat, stay out of the kitchen fag
>>216494223This was well drawn though
>>216494883Bro no way you are defending Icucks in 2026, Diabolical
>>216494963Im not defending, I'm just asking a question you can't seem to answer. How is iDubbbz a lolcow?
>>216494781He hasn't made anything of value since CC1. Just controversy after controversy and backstabbing his friends for a crumb of Hasan clout.
>>216494984Watch Stoic Chronicles
>>216495002Oh so he just has political opinions you don't agree with. Understandable, have a good day
>>216495021>go watch literally to help their adsense
>>216495032>>216495050Toothless are ugly
>>216495197You fucking take that back now. Toothless is cute. CUTE!!!!!
>>216492028This show has nothing on S4-8 Family Guy. IDK why /tv/ hates or ignores FG so much (other than that one guy who I'm avoiding by posting in here). It is (was) hilarious. The writing is tight and witty. The references are kino. In my experience, zoomers are bigger family guy fans because they grew up watching it on TV and then clips on YouTube. IRL the show seems to bridge the divide between all types of people, politically, sexually, racially. Although this is on the (b)east coast where people can laugh at themselves.
>>216492173Is all influence just illegitimate to you people?
>>216492028yo sí entendí tu meme, OP :)
>>216495409modern family guy is better than its modern equivalent shows and its not even close
>>216492028Family Guy is good though
>>216494860A frogfag calling anyone else a faggot is rich
>>216493459Zach has said multiple times over the years that he likes the early seasons of family guy.
