I have not had TV since 1997, but I’ve been exposed to family guy. It contains some of the most disgusting, and some of the funniest, stuff I have ever seen. I have very strong mixed emotions about the show, similar to how I felt about The Simpsons.
As will all of mankind, I try to throw out the crap and appreciate the good stuff. I’ve now watched a few episodes on hulu. One of the funny exchanges is here:

Sorry, but I was rolling over that one.
Auto spell correct, eh? One episode had them watching Wheel of Fortune and the message was MY HAIRY _UNT. Of course
the missing letter was not a consonant but a vowel:
MY HAIRY AUNT. Was reminded of that.
It can be funny, it can preach lefty stuff but sometimes
they throw a bone to us—as does the Simpsons. One ep. showed a Fox News van pulling up somewhere and it’s blaring (song) “Celebrate good times, c’mon!” (just after Bush’s re-election) To the left, it was “hey, look they’re biased.”
To me, it was “hey, damn right. Celebrate, man!”
OMG, I laughed.
I agree, the show will either HIGHLY OFFEND ME or make me laugh til I hurt!
THis one was funny as well.
