I just bought the Family Guy DVD SET. I got Seasons 1,2, and 3 now.

Anyway my favorite episode is the one where Bert and Ernie are shown in thier apartment. Forgot the title of it though.

The Miz 01-06-2004 07:37 PM

Blue Demon 01-06-2004 08:14 PM

Wasted Talent, Da Boom are hilarious

samichna 01-06-2004 09:03 PM

"Stuck Together, Torn Apart" is my current fave, mainly because of a couple jokes though.

I thought I was the only one who thought those episodes were sub-par.

I expected MUCH MORE from the Christmas episode.

Triple A 01-06-2004 10:53 PM

That was like the worst episode ever. It's the only Family Guy episode that I hate.

LAME.

FOX probably didn't air it because it sucked so much. It wasn't really offensive at all.

el fregadero 01-06-2004 10:59 PM

<font color=teal>Yeah, you think it's gonna be really offensive because FOX wouldn't air it, and then you watch it and you're all "wtf that's not offensive at all".

I laughed at the scene where Quagmire was "looking for his keys" though.

Back on topic, it's pretty much whichever episode I have watched most recently.</font>

Triple A 01-06-2004 11:00 PM

Yeah the only funny part of that episode was the keys thing.

FakeLaser 01-06-2004 11:00 PM

I was expecting something really offensive, but I found it to be one of the least offensive episodes of all. It probably got banned because there's so many Jewish people in the media.

That doesn't really make sense though since the generalizations about Jewish people in the episode are all positive.

Whatever.

Ol Dirty Dastard 01-07-2004 09:08 AM

lol, I found the episode to be humorous. But mainly the Seinfeld part. "So you didn't want to date her because she was a tickla...and you aren't a stickla for a tickla?"

"Not a stickla for a tickla"

"Not a tickla stickla"

tickla stickla stickla tickla stickla tickla

That made the episode :rant:

Blue Demon 01-07-2004 09:26 AM

In "When you wish Upon a Weinstein" I thought the parts with the talking clouds and Tony Robbins were funny too

MrMeJW 01-07-2004 10:22 AM

I like the whole "UH-OH" thing in that episode

I like the part in "Wasted Talent" when he gets the last scroll and when he runs home he falls and hurts himself...that was great

Yeah, I have reinacted that scene many times in real life, like in the school cafeteria, at TGI Fridays and in front of mad people waiting to get into Convention Hall to see Saves The Day and Taking Back Sunday.

I haven't seen all of series one but all the others I have.

My favourites are

The thin white line/ Brian does hollywood
Da Boom
Viewer Mail #1

Fox 01-08-2004 11:35 PM

Viewer Mail #1 rules. I mean, Goldberg is in it, how could it NOT rule? :shifty:

I kinda liked When You Wish Upon a Weinstein. The first time I watched it I thought it was really lame, but upon second and third viewings I caught some funny stuff, like the aforementioned "looking for the keys" and the talking clouds. His "I Need a Jew" song is kinda catchy too.

To Live and Die in Dixie is also a great episode. "OH GOD! IT'S EVERYWHERE! IT'S IN MY RACOON WOUNDS!"

Adder 01-09-2004 02:16 PM

I have no idea of the episodes titles.

I haven't seen an episode I didn't like yet.

The one where Peter gets lyposuction. The part I found funny was Chris running around with the pluger stuck to his forehead that had a twinky attached to it. It was his exercise routine.

It looks like Fox are going to bring family guy back............

January 12, 2004 -- EXCLUSIVE
'THE Family Guy" is coming back from the dead.
Talks are under way with both Fox - which canceled the cartoon series two years ago - and the Cartoon Network - which airs it in reruns now - for new episodes of the show, Seth MacFarlane, creator of "Family Guy," told The Post.

No matter what, MacFarlane says, production will begin soon - even if he doesn't know exactly where they'll end up.

"We're sort of waiting on an official word, but to the best of my knowledge, the plan is to start producing a batch of new episodes without necessarily knowing where they're going to wind up," he says. "It's sort of a new format that really hasn't been tried before, and it's based on the DVD sales."

DVD sales of the canceled show have been huge - and in no small part is fueling talk of reviving the series.

"It's insane. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that it would have this kind of afterlife," MacFarlane says. "It's just a shock to everybody who worked on the show."

The show follows the misadventures of the Griffin family - bumbling dad Peter, his good-natured wife Lois, their two teens, a cynical dog who is smarter than everyone else, and an evil baby bent on world domination who makes numerous attempts to kill his parents and siblings.



When "Family Guy" aired on Fox from 1999-2002, many attributed its low ratings to not having a secure place on the network's schedule. The show was kicked around so much, one of its writers once complained that even his own mother didn't know when it was on.

But industry execs took notice last year when the show's DVD collection surprised even MacFarlane by selling more than a million copies, a huge feat by any standard, but especially for a show that drew so little attention while it was on the air.

In the meantime, Cartoon Network's "Adult Swim" late-night programming block began airing repeats last year - which attracted large numbers of young men. In time, more young guys were tuning into the cable channel to see "Family Guy" at 11:30 p.m. than for either "The Late Show" or "The Tonight Show."

Men between the ages of 18 and 34 years old are a prized group for advertisers.

" 'The Family Guy' is appealing to a young male audience in a season when nothing seems to be appealing to young men," said an industry source close to the talks.

A deal could even be announced as early as this week, according to sources. But others believe that might be overly optimistic because insiders have been claiming a deal for the prime-time return of "Family Guy" has been imminent since last November.

Several different plans to bring the show back are under discussion.

In one scenario, new episodes of "The Family Guy" would air on Fox, then Cartoon Network.

Other options include shipping the show exclusively either to Fox, Cartoon Network or elsewhere. In all instances, the ultimate destination for the episodes would be on DVD.

But if the show does return, it will likely put off a planned "Family Guy" movie, says MacFarlane.

"To do an original movie directly for DVD and the series at the same time would be a little difficult," he says. "But there's been some discussion of doing a series of episodes that would all link together to form a movie."

While canceled shows have been picked up by rival networks in the past ("JAG" jumped from NBC to CBS in 1997, for instance), no one can recall a show that has been canceled and off the air ever returning to the same network.
