Family Guy

[someguy]

In my last string of topics, I wish to talk about the very wacky and funny Family Guy. It's not that original,but is it ever FUNNY? Every episode I'm rolling on the floor laughing. So this topic is to discuss about the show and pay respects to it(it was canned for good). RIP Peter,Lois,Meg,Chris,Brian,and STEWIE!!

[ColinM]

Yeah, it was a really funny show even if it did rip off of the superior Critic. I love the Kool-Aid Guy cameo, ever see that? That was really really funny. You can download it here:

I loved Family Guy so much. I heard they were coming out with all the episodes on DVD. I hope that's true because I need my fix. Same with The Critic for that matter. Two consistently hilarious shows that were victims of the network axe much too soon. Sigh....

[ColinM]

That would be great! I'd love to have either show on DVD...

[Kastman]

they only ever showed about 5 episodes in australia. i saw one of them. that main guy's car had a sticker saying "my other car is a vagina".those were the days

Series 1 is available on R2 dvd. No features but I understand it's the only dvd release of Family Guy so far.

[disorderly]

I remember my hatred for Family Guy, I badmouthed it everytime I could. But then I saw it again and again and I started laughting till I cried, fell off the couch to the point that people around me thought I had gone the Jack Torrance way. I'll miss this show, it was extremely funny and some jokes that I didn't see coming.

Peter Griffin: Brian, there's a message in my Alpha Bits. It says "OOOOOO"!
Brian Griffin: Peter, those are Cheerios.

This was classic

[herculeez]

Quagmire: Back in the 80's on tuesdays, i was in bed by 8...AND HOME BY 11! OH YEAH!

It's one of my favourite animations!!!
It's brilliant!

[Scarface98.9]

that was one of my favorite shows. if it wasn't canned so soon, it coulda been the next Simpsons. I loved the story of Stewie's days in the womb and how it almost made him crazy

[someguy]

I just saw some episodes and I just want to do some quotes from them like the one where the students kept licking toads and Peter goes to the principal for a plan:

Peter(sitting down):And that's my plan.

Principal:What plan? You just sat down and said and that's my plan.

The Hitler talk show was priceless.

[syxxpac]

This reminds me:

LOIS: Meg, poor self image is the cause of most world problems.

Then it goes to a scene where a skinny weakling Hitler is working out at the gym, and gets angry when he sees the muscle bound Jewish guy with the chicks crowding around him.

[stevereno]

omg this show makes my sides hurt with laughter!

i love the episode were chris meets KATE MOSS and she slips through the crack in the floor. and then she flys out the window

People here have good taste in comedy http://www.joblo.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

I've got the first season DVD and every episode is hilarious. Also the latest series 3 I've been watching is. One of my favourite recent episodes is where Peter teaches Death how to pick up girls. http://www.joblo.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

Here's one of my favourite scenes from that episode:
--------
(Death is in a car on some kind of makeout point, as we see the car shaking)
Death: Oh Mindy, oh Mindy...OH MINDY..
(No noises at all from Mindy)
.....oh no! Not again. I'll never get laid at this rate, unless....
(Pause, then the car starts to shake about again)

[Kim_EZ]

Oh my gosh, there this was one episode that so caught me off guard that I busted out laughing.

On the news, the male anchor turns the camera over to the weather guy Ollie and he says something that just made me LMAO. I don't wanna repeat it, though.

Tell us...

[fryman_3000]

You've gotta love the news people.

Remember when Peter knocks out all satelite TV and the news people realise no-one can hear them?

"Well...I'm the lord Jesus Christ! Wanna get drunk and beat up some midgets?"

http://www.joblo.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

[Tom Samborski]

It SUCKS that Fox cancelled it. What a bunch of idiots!

[Kim_EZ]

Well, okay I'll say it but I don't wanna offend anyone. I was just so taken by how the line was said that I laughed. And anything said on Family Guy shouldn't be taken serious anyway...

In the episode, the male anchor turns the camera over to the African-American meteorologist named Ollie. And instead of some fancy schmancy lecture on the weather, he just simple says, "This is Black-You weather and it gon' rain!" And that was it! LMAO.

Okay, it might not be funny to you but if you saw it, you'd laugh so hard.

And sorry if that offended anyone.

[The Claw]

Family Guy is one of the funniest goddamn shows ever. Top 10 at least. Each epsoide is a barrel of laughs and it sucks that fox got rid of it. At least us canadians can see it on teletoon at 10:30. horay for canada. do dodod canada. yay

[bob]

Family Guy was 30 minutes of unadulterated hilarity every night. I just ordered the first and second seasons on DVD.:D

[someguy]

I found a site where there's tons of quotes from FG. I'll try and find it and put it up here soon. One of my favourites being


Lois(to Peter):Why would they make YOU president of the company?

Peter:Maybe it's because I can say all the states of America in a quarter of a second. AIEEE!

[Corporal_Hicks]

Family Guy kicks ass.
I will be getting season one on dvd.

My favorite moment is the kool-aid man appearance at court. That had me in stiches.
My favorite episode is when Stewie is taken to a foster home. With the best moment from it being the parade with all the
Whos's the Boss? floats.

[El Bracamonti]

this is by far one of the best shows to have ever been shown on t.v. i can't wait for the dvd.

[Pootie]

yeah good show. should have good rewatchability.

[DevilMonkey]

Family Guy is my Favorite Show beside THE SIMPSONS.
The best episode ever was when the whoe family goes to new your IMO. My favorite line was:

"Guess what word im thinking of, and its not kittie"
"Uh...Kitti?"
"ahhh!!!!get out of m brain!"

[Mick]

I really liked Family Guy, ranks somewhere between The Simpsons and Futurama.

There were loads of funny scenes, but one that stands out for me was.....

Peter says "this isn't the first time my appetite has got me in trouble" (or something similar), then there's a flashback with Peter and some other people (including Anne Frank) hiding in a loft while Nazis are looking through the house. Peter is holding a bag of crisps (chips) and eats one, crunching very loudly. Everyone stares at him, with the Nazis still in the house, and Peter slowly eats another. You probably had to be there.

Damn you vile woman!

Stewie, why don't you eat your vegetables?

Why don't you BURN IN HELL!?

Stewie (holding a nicely wrapped box): You know, mother, they say life is like a box of chocolates... but yours is more like a box of LIVE GRENADES!

Stewie was great.

[blankpage]

I have the kool-aid episode, man, what a classic.

Great show it is.

[Grim H.]

Why don't they show it anymore? It was hilarious!

[syxxpac]

I think it's on Teletoon every night now, though I don't watch that much T.V. anymore...

[someguy]

BUMP

[Mick]

I'm sure you'll all be delighted to hear that I am expecting season 2 on DVD in the mail any day now :D

The DVD of course has "When You Wish Upon A Weinstein" on it - the "too offensive for television" episode...... umm? I've seen it before, what the hell is so offensive about it? :confused: Seems more like a marketing ploy than anything else to me :mad:

[DevilMonkey]

Teletoon WHAT IS IT?

[someguy]

Teletoon is a Canadian cartoon network basically. I'm Canadian so I get to see it every night. Yay!!

[dmdubie]

Good news for people who can get Cartoon Network. They're going to be showing Family Guy as part of Adult Swim, starting April 20th. YAY!! :D

Link to Adult Swim Schedule (http://schedule.cartoonnetwork.com/servlet/ScheduleServlet?action=AS&theDate=4/20/03&timeZone=EST)

[someguy]

That's sort of dumb since the DVD would be out already.

[bob]

Yes, but not everyone has a DVD player. Of course, if you can afford cable, you can probably afford a DVD player.

*Sniff* I was just trying to bring a little bit of sunshine, on an otherwise dreary day. :(






:p

[Grim H.]

For American Schmoes, at least, Family Guy is coming to Cartoon Network on April 20th, the new addition to Midnight Run. Also, the DVD comes out Tuesday, April 15th!:D

[Kim_EZ]

My friend said they cut out an episode and made some dialogue edits...?

God Bless you :)!

[shifty]

i love Family Guy.....one of my best quotes is



Mother:-( talking to kids in the back of the car) "now kids if you dont stop arguing,we won't be going to Mc Donalds after church"


Family Guy:- "We're going",.......brilliant



:cool:

[MickeyKnox]

Family Guy is one of my favorite shows filled to the brim with politically incorrect humor, this show bended the rules at FOX, but for me this show ranks along the same side as The Simpsons

[Scarface98.9]

Yay! I'm getting the DVD Tuesday for my b-day. A happy day it is :D

[PorcheRacer]

I'm getting it on DVD as soon as possible!

"I thought that was your name?"
"That's our word!"
"Pass me the oar N-word Jim"
"Much better"

[psycho path]

This is the funniest show I have ever seen. I may get killed for this,but I like it more then The Simpsons. Heres a quote I heard from an episode I seen two days ago...

Peter comes through the basement with a white suit on and everything,and Chris says:

Chris: Oh no its the government E.T. run!!!! (E.T. runs across the screen screaming)

That was funny as hell. Along with the 5 minute fight with a chicken that gave Peter a bad coupon a few moments before that part. Also,there was one where the guy in the wheelchair Joe moves in,and Peter is talking to him,and I dont remember how,but his face turns into Mickey mouse or something. I was laughing rather hard at that moment. Oh,and the one where Bert and Ernie are in bed naked...LMAO.

[someguy]

The part with Mickey Mouse was because they mentioned something about getting sued for using stuff from other companies. But I'm sure you all heard that there might be a Family Guy MOVIE??!!?? That'd be awesome. Release it in theatres!!!!!

[blackendo]

I don't know if that would happen but yet agian it could. But dam fuck those basterders on fox who got rid of the show but thank god that cartoon network has family guy on now on the adult swim now 11:00 to 2:00 and the episode this monday is peter peter caviar eater. kudo's to the people of cartoon network.

Tuseday episode: running mates
Wednesday episode: theres something about paulie
Thursday episode: holy crap

those are the episodes playing this week at 11:30PM on cartoon network

[psycho path]

Yesterdays ep. on Adult Swim was pretty damn funny. It made fun of THE SHINING in a few parts with the little twins,"Play with us Stewie."
So that was "Peter,Peter,caviar eater?"

[SkyNet]

my favorite quote so far from this show has to be when the mom is trying to feed Stewie (the baby) the broccolie... and she shoves it in his mouth and he spits it out and says "Who the hell do you think you are?"! i was rolling for like 10 minutes!

another good one, is when Peter takes the family out for the best dinner they have ever had... and they go to the drive through window and he rders 5 Chicken VAGINAS! haha

i told my friend i liked Peter more Than Homer... he nearly bitch slapped me... but they are at least tied!

[Congerking]

sorry, but this is the greatest line EVER:


[The Griffins have inherited a mansion. Stewie is being waited on.]
Stewie Griffin: You! Cut my bread!
[waiter cuts his bread]
Stewie Griffin: Now cut my milk!
Waiter: Uh, sir, it's liquid.
Stewie Griffin: [slaps him] IDIOT! Freeze it, then CUT it! And if you ever question my authority again, I shall give you diaper duty! And believe me, I will not make it easy on you


i could just read these quotes all day. go here:

[stevereno]

BEST SHOW IN THE WORLD!

I was just browsing around, when I saw someguys avatar though, i thought- that it was too eerie to not say something about- so here goes-Someguy, your avatar is creepy, yet cool.

Priceless :D

[EDsoulsurvive*]

family guy is a kick ass show as everyone has said b4 me. I love Cartoon Network, thank you!

[Clarkey07]

Family Guy is a great show and it was hiliarous. I'm probably goin to get the DVDs of the first season. I love Stewie.

Every now and then when I do watch TV, I make sure that I'm watching Teletoon at 10:30.

Damn,I remember that episode. I was laughing hard at that part! And who could forget...

TV ANNOUNCER: "We now return to the Scooby doo murder files!"

Freddy: "Gee whiz gang,looks like the killer gutted the victim,strangled him with his own intestines,and then dumped the body in the river!"

Velma: "Jinkees,what a mystery!"

-Scooby jumps on Shaggy and yelps.

Freddy: "Your right Scoob,were dealing with one sick son of a bitch!"

I lost it during that scene. If only I could find a clip of that scene in Brian:portrait of a dog where it shows Peter and Brian in an old black and white cartoon...

[ANavissi500]

I watch Adult Swim every night to see Family Guy and I TIVO all of the episodes.... Here are some favorite moments.....


The oompa-loompa song to handicapped Joe .....

"What do you think of the one you call God? Isn't his abscence slightly odd. Maybe he's forgotten you."

Quagmire stumbling in on a bound and gagged cheerleader in the men's restroom. A junior high cheerleader....

"Jackpot" [fade to black]

Peter giving an example of how he can be loud at the wrong times."

:::screen fades to black and white images. soldiers bust in through a wooden door and scour the room. shot pans up to a family huddled together in the attic with a girl clutching a diary (Anne Frank) . they are all silent. then you hear a crunch. crunch, CRUNCH.... pan right to Peter eating potato chips and looking at them as they look back with sad eyes...


OMG!!! This show will never get old. It pushes the envelope as to what is taboo and what is kosher in television and it will be sorely missed.

[ColinM]

*bump*

[psycho path]

Yesterday had a pretty good ep. on Adult Swim. Theres something about Stewie was classic!

[Arathon]

Yeah, it was a really funny show even if it did rip off of the superior Critic. I love the Kool-Aid Guy cameo, ever see that? That was really really funny. You can download it here:
Yeah I saw that. Fricken hilarious! Family guy is just total random shit that is just so funny. Did anyone see that episode with the Grim Reaper? Where Peter has to take care of the grim reaper's duties until his leg is better. Me favourite Family Guy episode.

[Arathon]

my favorite quote so far from this show has to be when the mom is trying to feed Stewie (the baby) the broccolie... and she shoves it in his mouth and he spits it out and says "Who the hell do you think you are?"! i was rolling for like 10 minutes!

I downloaded that quote from Kazaa. That quote is sure funny. One of my favourite quotes is

Peter: *Peers through a hole on 3 teenage girls who are getting changed* Move the towel...move the towel
Teenage Girls: *Gasp seeing Peter
Peter: Oh they saw me! *You find out that he is actually just holding a small plank of wood at eye level*

[psycho path]

The grim reaper episode is good.

Meg: "You could kill all of the girls who are prettier then me."

Grim reaper: "Well,that would just leave New England."

[Grim H.]

"Great party, grif."

"Oh, Jimmy! Girls you know Jimmy Caan. Go ahead and make yourself at home."

"Sey, thanks Grif." *punches playboy bunny in the face*

"Well, I meant have a cheese doodle, but, whatever it's a party!"

I laugh out loud every time I see that...

[jmcpher_007]

There is much love in my heart for Family Guy. :)

M: What's going on down here?
S: We're playing house.
M: But that boy's all tied up.
S: Uhh, Roman Polanski's house.

[psycho path]

I am downloading an episode off of kazaa. Its Brian portrait of a dog. I seen it before,as I mentioned it a few posts of it above. These episodes never get old! The part before the theme song was funny as hell.

Guy: "Have you guys seen Nicholas?"

Girl 1: "Hes in his room sulking dad!"

Girl 2: "Yeah,hes still upset that Abby threw out his baseball cards."

Guy: "Oh,well maybe I should make him a sandwich..."

Girl 2: (Chuckles)"Oh dad,thats your solution to everything."

-Dad gets pissed and runs up to her and knocks her out of her chair and smacks her 8 times,then the other girl runs in and stops him.

Girl 1: "Dad,DAD!!"

Guy: "What?!"

Girl 1: "8 is enough!"

-The dad then gets up and laughs.

Guy: "Oh,you know I love you girls!"

-The Griffins watch their television with a shocked expression on their faces except for Stewie(Of course!)

[Annie Hall]

Stewie: You! Fetch me the wallstreet journal. You two! Fight to the death!



Simple, yet...beautiful.

[blankpage]

" Yes and you must've lost your virginty to a mechanical bull, now feed me, damn you!"

Priceless.

[outsyder]

"What are you all staring at? It's tuna fish . . . .and nothing else."
- Stewie


Family Guy is ALWAYS funny.

And good news! Family Guy is now being shown weekdays at 2:30PM EST on TBS Superstation, right after Futurama and right before Roseanne!

[psycho path]

Well once again I will say it,yesterdays episode had me rolling on the floor.

Peter: "Hey,its the breakfast club!"

-Shows a bunch of cereal box characters,and then the frosted flakes tiger says something about cigerattes bieng Grrreat!

And there was one part where we see Peter in real life after discussing drugs to Chris.

I really enjoyed the episode where Peter had the endangered bird nesting in his beard. That cracked me up so good the first time I saw it. Still one of my favorite episodes. :)

It's awesomes that they'll be running episodes on TBS. Now there's actually a valid reason to watch that station. :D

I figure you've got the same time zone as I do, Nate.

[blackendo]

my favorite episodes are willy wonka and the boose factory

and the episode where peter choses the mystry box over a boat for a prize.

and finally the one where louis is getting pissed of because peter never pays attention to watch she says. And peter joins the mob to get another car.

I too, have heard that TBS is airing Family Guy, but because of my general disinterrest in TV, I haven't come across it yet? What time is it usually on (I'll convert it to my own time-zone later)?

[someguy]

It's on at 2:30

[blackendo]

why the hell did I post the same post twice?

Best part ever, I was hysterical on my living room floor after watching it on the DVD, and rewound it numerous times. Da Boom (the ET episode) is one of the best, along with Road to Rhode Island.

Long Live Stewie!

My favorite episode was on this week. Peter's Dad retires and comes to live with them.

Peter Griffin: We love the Bible in this house.
Francis Griffin: Really. What's your favorite book of the Bible?
Peter Griffin: Uhhhhh...the book where Jesus swallows the puzzle piece and the man in the yellow hat has to take him to the hospital.

Family Guy is a very funny show. Not as good as The Simpsons was at its peak, but about a thousand times funnier than King of the Hill.

It's a very oddly structured show, that's for sure. It moves at such a frantic pace, there must be at least a dozen flashbacks per episode, huge portions of the episodes often go nowhere, and bring nothing to the overall storyline, and the plot often veers off into about a dozen different directions. It sounds like I'm criticizing it, but I'm really not. For most shows, this structure wouldn't work, but for Family Guy, strangely enough it does. When I watch Family Guy, I get the impression that all of the writers got together in one room, one of them started writing, and then passed the script to the next person, and so forth, until the episode was written. And often, the results are pure genius. The episodes don't tend to be consistently funny like The Simpsons were, but every episode has several moments where I just completely die laughing. It's nice to see a show that completely disregards all of the rules of television.

While I'm on that subject, can you people believe the amount of stuff Family Guy gets away with? Sweet mother of Christ! I can only imagine how many complaints FOX got when they aired some of the episodes. Like the wheelchair song in the Chumbawumba episode. I was laughing my ass off when I saw that, but I'm sure that plenty of people were fuming.

Anyway, I've only seen a few episodes, but other people have contributed their favourite moments, so I'll include one no one has mentioned yet.

In the Y2K episode, the guy in the chicken suit tells Peter what's going to happen at midnight, and Peter screams, "Noooo!" We think at first that he's screaming at what the guy said, but then he runs past the guy. The Trix rabbit is standing there with a box of cereal in his hand. Peter grabs the box and goes, "Silly rabbit. Trix are for kids."

My explanation is a little longer than necessary, but trust me, it's really funny if you see it.

This is one of the true tradegies of TV this show is so fuckin funny the DVD is outrageous and the show can still be seen on the cartoon network on adult swim M-Thurs @ 11:30 The new DVD comes out on Sept.9 2003 be picking that one up for sure. And not to be a dick but if you don't have a DVD player that's pretty bad, shit you can get em now for like $50.00 and they all work the same you don't need a name brand. But anyways The Family Guy is the 3rd best animated comedy ever 1. The Simpsons
2. South Park

MARK MY WORDS FAMILY GUY WILL RETURN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Sorry what I mean is that family guy was the best show of the last 7 years when simpsons started falling off....South park has its moments as did futurama, but family guy kept me laughing on a consistent basis......Stewie has to be the best character ever invented...

YOu mean "Wasted Talent". And that is a fucking brilliant episode.

LONG LIVE FAMILY GUY!

[psycho path]

The indian casino one was great, even though they poked fun at Canada at the end. The Speedracer spoof was hilarious. Damn, I hate that show!

[X-Nightcrawler]

The absolute best cartoon EVER. Brian is the coolest character ever to grace the screen and there's not one episode where I didn't almost cry laughing.

Like C-Des said, the best moment in the series comes in Season 3's "Brian does Hollywood" in the opening: 'Previously on Family Guy' . . . Christ, that's fucking wit ladies and gentlemen!!

[Addi88]

Family Guy is one of the best shows in television history. It's so damn funny.

Peter: I'm sorry. What did you wanna say to me Lois?
Lois: Well, I....
(Peter just walks out of the room)


Peter: So how's therepy going?
Brian: He says that I'm in love.
Peter: OH MY GOD! YOU CAN TALK!

:D

I don't know if this news was broken before so I'll throw it out just in case. Last month during my lunch break, I was reading the entertainment section in USA Today. In it was an article with the great news that Family Guy had been uncancelled. Due to the highs sales of the DVDs, new episodes had been ordered. Cartoon Network was going to air the new episodes for sure. However, FOX still has first crack at airing the new episodes first although FOX hadn't made any official decision whether they would air the new shows or not. This is not a joke! And I don't know about you guys, but I'm stoked.

[martyds761]

[Unicron]

Yeah this became offical several weeks ago. Likely Cartoon Network will air them first starting at the end of the year or early next year.
