  Family Guy and Why It Doesn't Appeal to Me

  It seems that every time my friends and I bring up TV shows, the topic of Family Guy always comes up. I mean, I could say  "On Lost last night, so and so found a time bomb burried near the beach! Isn't that cool?" and one of my friends will say , "Yeah! That's like on Family Guy where so and so was riding in a car and made a joke about Winona Judd having a time bomb! Ha! Ha! Ha! Why aren't you laughing?" I find the majority of the jokes found on Family Guy are irrelevent and pointless. Don't get me wrong, the jokes are funny and it's an okay show, but if that's the only way the show can be funny, then NO THANKS! On a TV Guide channel interview, the creater of the series, Seth Mc-something-or-another practically admitted the show to be duplicated from The Simpsons, in fact The Simpons used to do sort of irrelevent jokes every now and then about 10 years ago, but they stopped because shows like Family Guy stole the device. It really agitates me.
