Does anybody watch this show?
I suppose it's kinda the same as the Simpsons but its much
more close to the bone. it's hilarious.
Peter Griffin is a king!

I watched it last week for the first time, it was quite
funny - but not as good as the Simpsons!

Yes, you are right the Simpsons have been so well
established over the last decade! They're like members of
my family......well.......err....you know!?!?

yeah it gets constant comparisions but family guy is much
more edgy and thats what i like about it, i also have the
first season on DVD and there is not a bad episode on it, i
hope the second series is out soon.

For me, it's far better than The Simpsons...which I must
admit I'm beginning to tire of...

I've been downloading a ton of episodes from SS
recently...SKY1 only shows it once or twice a week and
that's not enough for me...(Is it me or should SKY1 be
renamed to Simpsons1?...They seem to devote 50% of their
schedule to em...)...

Didn't know they were out on DVD...yet another few additions
to the "To Buy/Steal" list....

love it

- death breaks his leg
- stallone & swchazzeneger(?) as brideshead revisited!
- wheelchair-guy: nothin's gonna stop him doing anything,
legs or not!
Makes Simpsons look very PC

Very funny show indeed. I love the dog :)

I hope the DVD's come out over here! Were still waiting for
the freaking Futurama DVDs.

I'm watching it now on dutch television.

like the baby most.

still think Simpsons is better - the writing is better. must
say I haven't seen half of the episodes of the Simpsons, as
the BBC kind of got stuck on series 9 (I think).

i love this show as well, it's a godsend. and i agree, it's
much funnier than simpsons, i guess cos it goes that extra
mile. i think last season in the U.S. was season #3. can
anyone here tell me with CERTAINTY this show was cancelled?
it was on all last season but it hasn't been repeated all
summer here in the U.S. but for all i know it could be back
in the fall.

I still don't agree 'family guy' is better than the
'Simpsons'. FG is so obvious. you know exactly when the
little sidelines will come. I still get surprised by the
Simpsons.

simpsons is very clever, i agree the humor is more subtle
and refined.
