Family Guy makes fun of all political ideology.
I’ve noticed older Family Guy episodes really spread it around. They have had some great Clinton barbs, as well as some at the right. In the most recent season or two it seems like it is all aimed at the right, and more out of anger than humor in many cases. Not sure if they have some newer writers that are using the forum to express themselves, or what. I have found myself watching less because I like to watch tv to get away from real life issues - work and political.
From what I've seen, that's true as long as the political ideology is conservative. I watched Family Guy a LONG time, and never saw them do anything but trash conservatives and promote leftists. In my opinion, it got worse and worse as the show went on, and the Kucinich plug was the last straw.

As for 24, I've enjoyed the 3-4 seasons I've seen. Don't have TV (HOORAY!) so it's always been on DVD. Can't say I'm happy to hear that Garofalo is joining the cast (unless, of course, she dies a horrible, agonizing death.) As others have expressed, hopefully this isn't pandering to the left by the producers, in the same disgusting vein as Fox did by hiring Geraldo and others. ("Fair and balanced" my a$$ - they infuriate me with their coverage more often than not.)
Someone posted a comment about Kiefer Sutherland's real-life political views - he's a lib too?
