One of my co-workers is constantly spouting Family Guy references and it makes me think less of him. He's also a huge racist and Trump supporter.

Please ask him what he thought of the episode "Trump Guy" Where they basically just list current events that seem like they belong in a cartoon making fun of current events but aren't exaggerated. They also real talk at the end that the writing staff does not approve of Trump.

If that episode sounds funny to anyone, it's not, it's a horrible. I was bored, it was on Hulu and thought maybe it would get a laugh. It didn't. Maybe it made this guy angry, that would be funny.

I came here just to post this. Family Guy was hysterical for a few years, and this episode was one of the farthest falls in quality I've ever seen in TV.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

No he became an incredibly flamboyant gay stereotype who rarely used cool technology or weapons any more except for his time machine which he also didn't have for about half a season after he destroyed it and then Brian died and then they copped out on it and he fixed it and Brian is alive still. It's too bad because Vinnie was a funny character too. Not.

Your move, creep.



I really liked Family Guy when it first came on. I was sad when they cancelled it, and then really excited when they were bringing it back. But, then when it actually came back, it was terrible. I gave it a few episodes, and then never looked back.

Then when American Dad came out people kept saying, "Yeah, Family Guy sucks, but American Dad is amazing!" So I tried it, and hated it. Then people were like, "It started out bad, but it gets so good!" So I tried some newer episodes, hated it.

Then I started learning about Seth MacFarlane, the actual person, and I learned to hate the man behind the shows.

Now people keep trying to convince me that I should watch the Orville, and that it's good even if you hate all his other work.

Not falling for that again.

I've never gone back to the original three seasons of Family Guy, so I'm still not sure if those were actually good, or just good to 14-year-old me.

Notice how those careers just got flushed down the toilet? I wouldn't be surprised if this trump episode is the end of family guy.

I hated Family Guy the first time I saw it. It later grew on me. It's hit-or-miss, and it's more miss than hit, these days, but the funny stuff is pretty funny.

I hated American Dad, and I especially hated Roger. I watched a few episodes, stopped, then came back like four years later and tried, again. I was wrong. Roger is hilarious, and whoever is writing Steve deserves a special Emmy or something, because everything about that character is hilarious and perfect.

Steve's va is a legit singer, plus the songs in that show are actually funny, family guy's are mostly grandpa's night at the show.

Steve's smug "I'll act like a wolf boy" always cracks me the gently caress up, even if the guy bursting in the window is dumb and family guy.

I still turn on Family Guy now and then for some filler when I don't feel like thinking. Even though it tends to get extremely mean spirited and hate-fueled at times it still manages a few solid laughs per episode and that's more that I can say for many shows so... it's something.

The Trump Guy episode was dumb because there's just nothing else left to make fun of the guy that hasn't already been done. He's basically beyond parody anyway. They did actually also call themselves out for several things which was kind of interesting.
