February 7, 200521 yr anyone gonna watch the 'special preview' tonight? doesn't look as promising as fam guy imo, but still worth my time since seth mcfarlane is mastermind behind it as well...
February 7, 200521 yr The preview I saw before the SB was disappointing but I'll watch the whole thing before judgement.
February 7, 200521 yr TV's already off. It seems like, much like Family Guy, one character is really built from the mold of a "Wait til Your Father Gets Home" character.
February 7, 200521 yr Author QUOTE(TheBlackSox8 @ Feb 6, 2005 -> 10:24 PM) the first ten minutes so far... :puke :headshake highly disappointed. agreed. sucked so far...
February 7, 200521 yr Brian the Dog has been replaced by an Alien who sounds like Peter Griffin's black neighbor.
February 7, 200521 yr I thought he sounded more like Paul Lynde, which made him amusing for a few seconds.
February 7, 200521 yr Not as funny as Family Guy, but it shows a lot of promise. Couple of moments were hilarious. ONe that comes to mind is the part with the fish and German skiier switching brains.
February 7, 200521 yr Funniest scene for me: When the old dog tries to pee and just dust comes out. Other than that, really unfunny. Of course, I hated the pilot of Family Guy as well, but, it got better. Too bad the dog is dead, it was about the only funny thing about the episode.

I think they need to rethink the characters and their "quirks" if they want this show to work. Get rid of the alien....and change the kids "identities" around. It seems like it was thrown together and not thought out(or at least the parts up to where i left off). :sleep

And, if I recall correctly, people were saying the same thing about Family Guy. Guess I'll just wait till it premieres on Adult Swim.
February 7, 200521 yr I liked it. Some flat parts but the terrorist references were great. My favorite had to be the line about his daughter shaving her armpits and how if the terrorist win that will be the first thing to go. Then when they show Iraq with Ikea furniture and the husband is yelling at his women to get dressed and she runs out the window. Warning, I explain things horribly.
February 7, 200521 yr He told her to put some clothes on.. she puts the veil over her eyes in burqua style. He tells her to get him a beer, but she can't see cuz of the burqua over her eyes. She gets up,trips on the footstool, and...out the window she goes.

Put some clothes on!!! *Wife covers up her whole face, rendering her blind. Husband: Now go get me a beer! *Wife stands up and trips over table, and breaks through the window and falls a few stories down. (Looked like an apartment complex.

February 7, 200521 yr Never really watched Family Guy but this was pretty funny. Jesus to Dubya: I got Cheney on the line I'm gonna have to let you go... Hello Sir! hahaha

Hello Sir! hahaha <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The only funny line in the whole episode was the part when god was talking to Bush... God: Maybe you should downplay our relationship. Like that telling people God wanted you to be president. Why don't you just keep that to yourself. Other then that very dissappointed. The show just was very unfunny. He needs to stick with Family Guy.
February 7, 200521 yr I didn't want to start a new thread for it. Did anyone watch the simpsons? I loved the part when Tom Brady got on that scooter thing with the sign that says "Everyone sucks but me!" I just bust up laughing

I just bust up laughing <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's a Segway (they are hard to get on, but fun to mess around with.) The Best part of the Simpsons was the Homer and Mario Scene.
February 7, 200521 yr Tonight's Simpsons episode was mediocre. Typical of recent episodes. Too many plugs of professional atheletes. Yao Ming's lines weren't funny, and neither were LaBron James. -Lebron accepts omlettes LEBRON: This is the happiest day of my life. LISA: Didn't you recently sign a 90 million dollar contract? LEBRON: That was a good day, too. No punch line. One of many weak lines during this week's episode.
February 7, 200521 yr I kinda liked AD, it had it's moments. As long as you don't expect it to be as good as family guy, it will be entertaining enough.

"You try to raise your daughter a secular humanist and then Hollywood comes and shoving religion in our face.... 'Mommy, why wasn't I baptized?' See what they've done??"
