Family Guy?

OK....I've come to really enjoy Family Guy.

It's bawdy, wacky humor is so up my alley.  But my wife thinks it is stupid.

How'bout y'all?

Ditto. 3 votes, same results.
Not sure whose sense of humor is "better", us or the wives.


Agonizing over what cannot be is an insult to what is.

My wife actually got me watching it!  She likes the baby Stewie.  I really enjoy that type of humor, but sometimes they do cross the line.

I watch the show religiously, like South Park. It's not as good as it was as in seasons 1-3, but that usually goes for every show.

I love the antics and how the show does jokes that are totally disconnected from the plot, but may contribute to a on going joke.

Big BIG big fan of Alex Borstein, who used to play on MadTV as Ms Swan.

I love family guy, the wife didnt care for it at first but then after about 2 episodes, she was laughing pretty hard.

Biggest Family Guy fan in the world right here. Watched it back in 1999 and had Seasons 1-3 on DVD before it became such a world wide phenomenon. My wife is indifferent about it and will watch it if I am.

I watched the DVD's so much I had to re-purchase them as the layers started to fade.

I love Family Guy!!  It's just so wrong that it's right!  They definitely push the limits...

The only time I ever thought they truly crossed the line was the one where Quagmire got fired from his pilot job and they made a totally terrible reference to 9/11...

They have these mini-marathons on TBS.  My wife hears me busting a gut in the family room and she's rolling her eyes, right?

I say, "C'mon honey, sit down and watch one of these with me....at least one segment between commercials."

She acquieses and of course they come off with something SUPER irreverent to where I'm not even laughing.

DANG !!!

I havent heard someone use this word in years. I forgot it existed.

I was just watching some old Family Guys on DVD. It is really funny to see the first few seasons and the new episodes, how the voices and animations have changed dramatically

I don't watch TV alot, but I have caught some really funny episodes that I split a gut on.
Another show I have seen a few episodes of and really got into is Two and a Half Men. The one where Charlie turns the chiropracter office into a "ranch" was hilarious..... sorry, didn't mean to get off Family Guy.
