Family Guy is a good show.

Just seems like a Simpsons wannabe to me.

“Just seems like a Simpsons wannabe to me.”

Far less preachy and much more funny. Subtlety mixed with edge. I haven’t gotten a laugh out of the Simpsons in a few years.

Evidently the creators of Family Guy are near my age because the show constantly references things from my childhood. I mean, on what other show does a character audition for a play by singing the theme to “Land of the Lost” or picks the theme of the parade to be “Tony sees Angela naked in the shower”, ala “Who’s the Boss”?

It’s nuttier than the Simpsons and far wittier.
