Family Guy

I watch it, but I think its stupid that they are making a spin off just so Cleavland can have his own show

AND IT TOOK KING OF THE HILL'S TIME SPOT! That was one of the best cartoon ever. It was funny, realistic, and you actually have to have half a brain to understand a lot of the jokes.

I watched the pilot to the Cleaveland show about a month ago online. It was horrible, even for a pilot. Who's smart idea was it to give the most boring character in the show his own spin-off series?

I hate it. Horrible, unfunny show. Filled to the brim with time fillers and no plot. Has horrrible, boring characters too. But I'll be honest here, it was good before it was cancelled. But when it was brought back it went down hill.

Are 8 minute chicken fights really funny? No, it just a quick gag trying to kill time because the writers can't do a decent plot. Is watching Conway Twitty sing a song fun to watch in a cartoon? No, it's just useless time fillers.

The once somewhat decent cast of characters has devolved to a pile of trash. Stewie was an evil baby bent on killing his mother and taking over the world. Now he's a homosexual baby. Brian was once a respectful, smart character, but he is now just Seth MacFarlene's fursona.

Sorry for the butthurt rant, but it just irks me ever so much to see how popular this cartoon is. When it really deserves to be cancelled.

If people still watch it, it won't be cancelled. If it actually deserved to be cancelled, no one would watch it, nature would take its course, and it would be cancelled soon enough. But obviously, this has not happened and there are no signs that it will. Your opinion is not God, you don't decide everything. Just because you don't like something doesn't mean it needs to be cancelled. If you don't like it, there's a simple solution: don't watch it. That's it. That's all you need to do.
People have different senses of humor. I, for one, love this slapstick and overall lack of plot. A lot of people love random humor. And the clips (what you call filler) also add a visual to some amusing (or not amusing, in your case) thing that happened to a character, rather than a sole oral description of "I was a strawberry in a past life...and that's it" or something like that.

Agreed. You can thank Seth MacFarlane's total and complete loss of his sanity. He made American Dad! as a total knockoff of Family Guy, because, hell, he can. People will watch any crap he pumps out. xD All the characters and the comedy of Family Guy have a complete yet less powerful clone in American Dad. Peter=Stan. Lois=Francine. Hayley=Meg. Chris=Steve. Stewie=Roger. Klaus=Brian. In The Cleveland Show they have Cleveland, his new wife, his three kids, and that bear, respectively. It even has the oldest sister, two younger brothers thing. But that's okay. If people watch it and enjoy, and companies are willing to sponsor it, then it deserves a spot on TV. In fact, I mildly enjoy American Dad and am likely to enjoy the Cleveland Show as well, since Cleveland is one of my favorite characters in Family Guy.

That's all the business of the watchers. Anyone who doesn't like it...well, it's not your business, and not your place to say that it should be cancelled.

That was a good show, and I understand you being unhappy about that. Now there were people out there who wanted it cancelled. How does it feel on the other side of it?

Fact is, it was cancelled because it coldn't maintain the fees to stay on air, either that or stations weren't interested in broadcasting it anymore. Sad but true. That's how it works, though.

The reason it's not cancelled the majority of people are idiots and they have a **** sense of humor and a **** taste in television, along with other stuff. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize the show is poor.

Random humor is the worst kind of humor, it only appeals to people with ADHD. And the fillers are pointless. We don't need 'um, we don't care if someone was a strawberry once. Also watching a show with lack of plot is like eating soup with your hands.

EDIT: Anyone who wanted KotH cancelled is a dum dum, who ain't smart enough to understand it's humor.

...That doesn't make any sense. I think what you meant to say was, like...eating soup without broth.

Anyway, like I said, your opinion is not God. You don't need to be so arrogant and unaccepting. A lot of people like Family Guy. Not just people with ADHD. Also...even if viewers of Family Guy had ADHD, what's wrong with that? ADHD is a freaking mental disorder, you jackass. 1 in 20 children have it and it severely affects their ability to get the most out of education. I can take you insulting Family Guy, but once you victimize a mental disorder the gloves come off. Instead of ranting and whining about how much you hate Family Guy, how about you get a damn life and some respect for things you just don't understand?!

Not to mention, whether or not a show is poor is a matter of opinion. And what's this "we don't need them" stuff? You said you don't like it! Why are you watching it?

I tried to offer you my sympathy on this subject, but obviously you're only going to try and use it as ammo against me. How nice. By the way, failure. I do understand it's humor, I like that show, and I don't care if you think I'm a "dum-dum", because your judgment and understanding are awful. You do not know who's a "dum-dum" and who isn't.

Well now dont you think your coming off as a bit close minded? i mean theres no reason to label someone an idiot because they dont have the same sense of humor, other people have their opinions on things, and you should openly accept that, not immediately bash the whole fanbase of a show because you dont like it
 
I LOVE Family Guy! I have ever single episode they released on DVD so far.

Who cares if the show has No plot? That is one of the things that makes the show funny!

I don't see how anyone can hate Family Guy. anyone who says they hate Family Guy did not give the show enough of a chance, IMO.
