Family Guy

🎲

"On my first day one of my co-workers saw me and yelled out 'This n——a look like the son on Family Guy!'. For the next six months my name at work was Chris Griffin."
"The unique genius of the series is that any 20 year old undergraduate ideologue with a blog can graft their worldview onto Peter Griffin and be correct. He's an anticapitalist metaphor, he's a well-dressed, suave, 2000s family man, he's a tragic portrait of toxic masculinity, he's a white man with u"

"It's sad that the queen won't get to see the Family Guy season 21 premiere. Hear one last giggity. Pour out a Pawtucket ale on Spooner Street for this one."
"Seen too much slander of the show here from ppl who only know it from "Funny Moments" compilations. Maybe it's not as prolific and heartfelt as golden age Simpsons but it was genuinely great."

"You could take the entire catalogue of Family Guy episodes to date and I guarantee you would not be able to find a single frame to call beautiful. The same can't be said however for the early seasons of the Simpsons, Lain,yur or the films of Yuri Norstein."

"Regard then, and I still am having trouble processing this, shouts 'so did you fuck her???' Everyone in the room froze. It's like we were in some Family Guy cutaway."

"Getting upvotes in this subreddit is so formulaic. I feel like I'm one of the manatees writing family guy. Just draw a loose connection between a couple popular topics on the sub and turn it into a half-joke, boom 500 upvotes every time."

"And they also have this weird ass tendency to get really sentimental over shxt like Megs treatment on family guy LMAO. like the people unanimously, and I'm talking about this massive sub of several hundred thousand or million (I think) users, are getting pissed off and openly emotional at how fuckin"

"at the beginning the father of the child Lois ran over with her car says he's going to a lana concert. then there is a reference to the far side (cow tools origin) comic EDIT: they just made a radiohead joke about thom yorke being ugly"
"It is the only show that consistently managed to keep up with the development of humor; from inventing the word 'normie' in 2000 (influencing chan culture), to Peter Griffin grinding his gears (influencing millennial advice animal memes), to Quagmire toilet (influencing surreal humor)."
"Family Guy guys: in comparison with the other 2; few if any political convictions. Prefers energy drinks to coffee. Their sense of humour relies on transposing pop culture/political figures into absurd situations ("It's like if X was in Y!"), or else on shock/metahumour. They are surprisingly the mo"

"It's something they don't understand and it's driving these people insane. They should be watching Family Guy, not chatting to a computer about their alcoholism and asking it if it has feelings."
"I feel like zucc has read my mind and started recommending me YouTube shorts teaching you how to make retarded brain rot YouTube shorts with ai, the kinda ones with subway surfer and family guy clips playing below a fake story from Reddit."
"If I someday meet the writers of family guy I will beat them up!!!! The writing is so smug and unempathetic . Horrible people write that show !"
