Reverend Jax Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Suffering from Family Guy withdrawl? I don't know about the rest fo you, but as great as Family Guy is, after seeing each episode about a dozen times each, I've just stopped watching it. And I've been suffering from withdrawl. Well, maybe of us suspected it, and the series premiere of American Dad yesterday confirmed it. American Dad is ALOT like Family Guy. There's the political twist, but the feel is exactly the same. And Family Guy's is on it's way back too, so it'll be interesting how the shows evolve apart from each other. Futurama, as different as the setup was from the Simpsons, felt alot like The Simpsons early on, but later (later half of season 2, maybe season 3) came into its own and bacame a distinct show in its own right. I hope American Dad heads in that direction too, though I can't say I'd be disappointed to see it stay consistantly funny and not change. Very funny, and I hope it won't alienate the politically conservative Family Guy fans. Lemme hit you alls with a link to a site with a torrent for it: ShunTV It requires a sign-up, but it's worth it for the prompt Daily Show uploads. If you don't wanna sign up, I'm sure lots of torrent site will have it. If you like Family Guy, check it out, pronto! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyLeakyBucket Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Man I laughed so hard during this cartoon. It was just soooo wrong. Between the german-pervert fish and the chubby, shit-squirting alien, it doesn't get much more random. Great stuff. Not sure how fresh it would be after quite a few episodes, but I hope it will be as consistently good as The Simpsons, et al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganny McVagflaps Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 It was pretty funny alright, but I agree with Jax...hopefully it'll start developing in May. That alien was the uh....shit also.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Jax Posted February 8, 2005 Author Share Posted February 8, 2005 Yeah, he was a bit to Brian-like. Well see if MacFarlane can develop him into a distinct character. If he never does that shit-mucus thing again, it won't be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jont Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 Any chance of a direct link to the torrent, or maybe you could upload it. The site you linked to isn't accepting new members, I guess due to the whole Suprnova/Lokitorrent shutdowns they recon if a site stays small it stays safe.

Jont Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Just finished watching it. A shit load like family guy, probably not as many laugh out loud moments but still entertaining. It's still seems a little pointless to me, apart from the CIA element, which isn't realy played up on much, the main character is pretty much a mix of Peter Griffin and Joe Swanson.

Reverend Jax Posted February 20, 2005 Author Share Posted February 20, 2005 True, but I still think there's alot of places they could take the series. Sure, Family Guy was funny right out of the gate, but I suspect the show will come into it's own soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Jax Posted May 14, 2005 Author Share Posted May 14, 2005 Well, now that we've seen two more episodes, and they've both been better than the first, what do you guys think of the series now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristyandJake Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 I think its good and will only get better, as we get to know the characters more. Still not as funny as Family Guy, but funny in its own way. I enjoy watching it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganny McVagflaps Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 I dunno about this...it has it's moments but as a whole I'm not really into it. Lemme try Sundays and see what happens... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
