Anybody watch "Family Guy"?
I usually don't watch fox except for "The Simpsons" when it seems pretty good and "Family Guy." This episode was great! Brian was reading "What Happened to my Country?" and on the back of their car had a Kuinich 08 bumper sticker. Also Gibson was working on a second "Passion" movie but Peter and the mother (her name left me now) tried to get rid of it. It was great. :) I enjoyed it.

4. I saw it last week
It felt forced to me, like they were calling it in. None of the 'outtakes' were really funny.

I dunno, I think for me it suffered the "last episode of Seinfeld" effect, it could have been the greatest ever, but if you hype-up comedy, it always falls flat for me. Of course, I'll be watching next week.

7. I did
And as I said in an earlier post, it bumped "Brian Goes To Hollywood" out of first place as my favorite Family Guy ep ever :rofl:

10. I liked it but American Dad SUCKS!
2 episodes now of American Dad and not ONE funny line. Total Crap! The characters are HORRIBLE, the writing totally weak and unimaginative, completely lacking everything that makes Family Guy funny. I give it the rest of the season before it's taken out and shot!

12. I think the bumper sticker said "Kucinich '04"
But it was a nice touch all the same. Did you hear the reference to Mel Gibson's Nazi paraphenalia? :D

14. Laughed my ass off through most of the episode
and I've pretty much considered FG to be a second rate rip-off of The Simpsons until now.

The Passion 2: Crucify This! (Actually, I would pay to see that movie as portrayed on last night's show)

I was pleasantly surprised with the two Simpsons episodes before it as well. I don't expect much from The Simpsons anymore but I actually enjoyed watching it again last night.
