that blogger guy is right, though, half the jokes are the "why's this keep going on and on and on?" type. I think South Park pretty much savaged Family Guy in the Cartoon Wars episodes.

On the other hand, some of the musical numbers in Family Guy, and even the one in the credits, are great.

yeah, they kinda make it a bit unclear whether he's saying that, or "laugh and cry".

I've seen some pretty funny bits in FG.  the new season wasn't too hot though.  I doubt it has much time left.

Stewie started out saying F'n cry. They always claimed he was saying Laugh and cry, which doesn't sound right and doesn't fit the facial expression. sometime during or after season 2 they reedited it to clearly say laugh and cry, but on the recent episodes, it's been switched back I think.

the new season also has definetly changed stewie to be more just a fop than the evi-mad-scientist-kill-lois-world-domination type of character he used to be.

he's become more just a reactionary to brian now.

way less interesting from my perspective.

er, not that i wanted to be a mad scientist bent on world domination or anything.

really.

Agreed te new stuff has been a bit hit and miss for me, but the first three seasons didn't put a foot wrong IMHO.

I love South Park as well, but their probably quite bitter considering family guy reruns are getting higher ratings on comedy central than they are. Although I would say their criticisms are valid to some of the newer episodes.

Irrationality in MP is always part of the joke.


Therefore, UD is of such great value to us.
