There are many worse examples of this garbage in that show. But I’ve only watched a few seconds of it. Could never stand it.

It’s not funny, yet it makes him laugh.

Family Guy used to be funny, when it was on it’s first run. Once they brought it back, they tossed out the comedy for an endless string of conservative and Republican bashing “jokes”. Yawn...

as long as family guy is raking in the advertising dollars, you won’t see it removed.

I grew up on Disney and Lance animations. That spoiled me to inferior product, aside the content.

Haven’t been able to watch this stuff starting with Hanna-Barbera (sp).

Family Guy is an American animated television series about a dysfunctional family in the fictional town of Quahog, Rhode Island.

It was created by Seth MacFarlane for Fox Broadcasting Company in 1999.

The show uses frequent "cutaway gags" — jokes in the form of tangential vignettes that do not advance the story. Family Guy was canceled once in 2000, and again in 2002, but strong DVD sales and the large viewership of reruns on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim convinced FOX to resume the show in 2005.

It is the first canceled show to be resurrected based on DVD sales.

family guys feels like strings of inside jokes after another. I don’t get any the jokes. Wierd characters pops in and out and do their music routine or jokes. It wasn’t funny

Only thing I liked about it was Stewie, the evil baby

Cartoons are for kids, anyway.

There are several reasons for canceling a cartoon, but "historical inaccuracy" is not one of them.

It's a cartoon, not a history lesson.

That being said, I agree--it should be canceled.

On top of that, the show has featured countless historical inaccuracies.

Umm, it's a cartoon. I find it very funny.

The show is crude. I’d like to see it go away.

So, before any Liberal thinks this is another Conservative bashing a show he has never seen, SHUT UP.

That's as far as I could get....

Family Guy is funny, though I like Futurama and Robot Chicken even more.
There are moments that do go way over the top, and a few where lightning bolts striking the producers would probably be appropriate, but on the whole it is funny. And that’s enough for me.

But, if they drop it I couldn’t choose not to watch it.

I stopped watching any kind of these shows after watching the Simpsons one time. The father was telling the son to kick someone in the n*ts if in a fight. Not the role model I want for my son. You are free to make your own choices.

Why would you expect historical accuracy from an animated cartoon that has a talking dog? If it makes you laugh, doesn’t that mean it’s funny?

>Bran, Stewie and the other guy beat up Nazi SS officers and take their uniforms. Stewie found a McCain-Palin button under a lapel. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I was sick to my stomach when I saw that. How dare Seth McFarland – the one of the show’s writers insinuate that Sen. John McCain or former Vice Presidential candidate and Gov. Sarah Palin would have any connection to Naziss what so ever

Seth? Seth, is that you?
The show's pretty funny and
who would be surprised

if MacFarlane did
go viral and advertise
by hating himself?

Criticizing an animated TV sitcom for historical inaccuracies? Wow. Someone needs a reality check.
