Is it bad that I prefer the fucked up and meanspirited era of Family Guy more than these newer ones? At least then you could say, "wow, that crossed the line".

Now they hammer in the fact that they're owned by Disney, try to make sure that Lois, the biggest bitch of the entire series, even more bitchy with every episode and made the characters fall flat.

You just know Seth didn't give a shit since he took his Star Trek and Hanna Barbera references with him.

They even made a fucking episode where Lois tells Peter that "his 80's comedy isn't funny anymore."
Ouch.

BTW, that Transformers cartoon looks fugly. Why the fuck did they give them those kind of eyes with those faces?

Not even Zombie Simpson is as bad as this.
They're both equally and similarly awful. The only difference is Simpsons actually used to be funny, whereas Family Guy pretty much just always ripped off other people's jokes.

I mean, seriously, is there any line said by Peter Griffin in that clip that wouldn't fit Zombie Homer?

And instead of all the jokes they could've done with Daenerys, they made up their own joke by making her black? Okay...?
The joke is that the character is a stronk independent wymyn who don't need no man, so they made her a stronk independent black wymyn who don't need no man. Also that black people have funny names, that usually begin with 'D'.

It's not funny but I figured you of all people should've picked up on that

I agree, those niglets wouldn't look out of place in a Paw Patrol spin-off, but for a realistic series?

It happens when "artists" think they can achieve their own "style" without learning basic anatomy first. See Liefeld, Platt, McFarlane, or the abominable Medina (it worked with Capullo, because even though his drawings were over-the-top 90's tacticool, he at least understands anatomy)

Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck will sing the Vaxx Scene song, how delightful.

That's pretty much it, yes. Old Family Guy could get a chuckle out of me with some of its more mean-spirited gags, like Lois inviting Peter to her book club meeting and he happily saying "fine!" and then breaking his own neck. But now it's just unfunny references and gore.

Warner Bros. Animation (WBA) has recruited Bugs and the gang for a new musical feature, Bye Bye Bunny: A Looney Tunes Musical.
The film features a screenplay and lyrics by Emmy winner Ariel Dumas (The Late Show with Stephen Colbert)
I think I'll stick with the classics, thank you very much.


(Also much more progressive that this China-friendly treatment can ever be)

That's fine and all, but she needed three men in the form of her dragons ;)

At the very least it's not actively painfully for Family Guy to be terrible. The Sipmsons being not just bad but constantly getting worse stings.

Because, like I said, it was good once. Family Guy was never good so who really cares that it's shit now?

Like Jim Davis, Seth has decided to go full pimp, and milk his cartoon dry. Besides, who’s gonna replace him? Dan Harmon? (((Justin Halpern)))? Pffffft

I thought the first season was pretty fresh when it came out. Too bad the series was revived, it died when it needed to. Like Futurama.

I liked Family Guy better, when it was Larry and Steve.
