Thumbs up

I would be, if I lived in America and hadn't already seen the new episode over a week ago I'm looking forward to when it comes out here though, I'll watch every episode to give it the ratings it deserves, even thought I plan to d/l every episode as it's shown in the US.

I would be excited if i wasn't worried that Seth Macfarlene had lost what little comedic writing talent he had.

American Dad..After seeing the first two episodes I can safely say that its the WORST SHOW EVER MADE!

I woudln't go that far. There's plenty more terrible shows than American Dad.

Tonight's Family Guy was hysterical. After the GI came out of the bathroom stall, I thought it couldn't get any funnier, but then they had to show the Passion 2 bit. I damn near died.

It's suppsoed to improve after three episodes, give it a chance, it's still better than The Simpsons.

American Dad just seems to be Macfarlene's Desperate attempt at Recreating Family Guy after it was Cancelled and FG was a rip-off of the Simpsons to begin with so watering down an already over-used Dynamic doesn't help make New and engaging TV

*Goes and watches the 350th simpsons episode and dies alittle inside*

Well, technically, every type of TV show has been done already, so why even bother watching anything if you're going to use that kind of reasoning?

...It actually is'nt, but I'm not going to start THAT argument....

I'm just asking for the show to be given a chance, after all, even The Simpsons' first season had a lot of crap in it, animation wise, and story wise, naturally it had two or three gems in there before becoming what it was Season Two

I think you should start that one, Zarius, I'd be right there to back you up.

Anyway, Family Guy last night had my crying. The scenes of Peter as Jesus in the Passion, oh man, I almost died. The best part that had me crying was the scene from the Honeymooners. Then that nice little animation thing after Brian said "Upside down face" and Stewie slowly tilted his head, stuff like that is genius.

Anyone else notice the animation improvements? Like the scene with Peter driving in the car, if you look behind him, the background is almost 3d. And, again, the thing with Stewie.

American Dad was ok, not as funny as the first episode.

I missed it all, but luckily I had seen the first Family Guy episode last week, so it's all good. It was completely hilarious. I loved it. I'm in the process of getting the second episode of American Dad. Should be decent at least. Even if it's not as good as the first episode, it probably beats the hell out of any of the first 3 seasons of the Simpsons, and all the new stuff.

That GI Joe public service announcement made my week. And the fact that they got the original voice of Flint to do it made the whole thing even cooler. So long as Fox doesn't change the timeslot Family Guy whould be on for a while.
