Sometimes I like the show and sometimes I don't. It's like a guilty pleasure that I don't always enjoy. So, do you guys love the show or hate it? And why?
Poll: Family Guy, yay or nay?

I don't. I liked a few of the old episodes, but I really, REALLY hate the new episodes...I figured it aged more like milk than fine wine.
Eh. It has it's moments, but it's not something I would normally watch. Usually a bit too low-brow for my tastes.
very much a hit-and-miss.
I judge it the same way I judge Monty Python, the % of jokes(that may or may not relate to the ep's plot) I find funny will define how I feel about the ep.
I consider it sketch comedy so I don't care about the fact many jokes are interchangeable.

Yay, it can be surprisingly clever from time to time and even when it isn't it is entertaining. I can only see so much at one time though.
It uses an incredibly lazy gag-driven writing style that enables whatever capricious bullshit to brought up totally out of context for a simple joke no matter how detatched it is from the conversation. However that does not stop it being hilarious, although the hilarity has significantly declined since about season 4/5.
I love it. Its a comedy show that used a method to ensure they could make ANY joke. People criticize Family Guy for the random non plot jokes that pop up...but its a comedy. It is supposed to make you laugh, not tell a great story. And who cares if its low brow? Again, its supposed to make you laugh.
It used to be a beasty show; now it's one of the worst shows on TV. Half of the jokes are just references to the 80's which have nothing to do with the plot.
I'm not much into the Family Guy's humor, although I certainly enjoyed it a lot back then, it just doesn't appeal me as much as before. It's almost too random for the sake of being... well, too random.
I think that Family Guy had it's chance and should die (again) while it still has dignity.

Not to mention that it went from humor from actual jokes to tired-ass, overly-long running jokes to grossout humor and...overly long, repeating jokes that aren't funny, like I just said.TU4AR said:
Pretty much this, South Park's soapboxing is good and I like it, but Family guy's just gone down the shitter after about when there was that cannabis episode.TU4AR said:
If I see one more Aahh sssss or "Here's something you'll really like"
I will not watch the show again. It's just good enough to watch, by a sliver. American Dad surpasses it easily by this point.
Seth's leftism is pretty grating.
Meh. It has it's moments, sure, but often it's just trying to push buttons just to push buttons. Plus, it rarely does anything truly new and just repeatedly trots out the same old jokes.
