Family Guy is a show that I fell madly in love with back in the day. SouthPark I like also, but its preachy attitude is sometimes just too much for someone who just want to get some laughs. Simpsons is another favorite, but Homer’s idiotic antics is just a rehash of his previous episodes. Family Guy’s take on comedy is different and its really refreshing.
Some don’t really like Family Guy. They say that their jokes are, most of the time, too random and not related to the plot. Well, it is! Maybe even 99.9% of the time! It’s randomness is its strong point since you don’t know what will happen next. Not unlike other comedies when you already know what would happen that it kills the joke completely.
Sure, Family Guy has some flaws. But it is one of my favorite shows of all time.
Unfortunately, it seems that Family Guy has lost its steam lately, especially in the last season. And here I am wondering, why is that? How come such a show with randomness and virtually no limit in topics ran out of steam? Is it the show, or the people behind it?
It just saddens me that such an awesome show would slowly wither away. I reckon that this show would still continue to air for a few more seasons but will be more devoid of comedy. Similar to what happened to the Simpsons.
