Cartman wins again.

Oh my god.

A Seth MacFarlane FLINTSTONES?

He wants to do Star Trek? So, like everything else he's done, the captain would be an idiot, the first officer is quiet and patient to the captain's antics, there's a drunk, there's a non-human who does most of the thinking, someone with a handicap and a gay guy. Actually, that fits rather well.

So it's the viewer demand and 300 people employed by Family Guy that keeps him from ending it and not the huge dump truck full of money they back up to his house every week. Riiiight

What do you think makes the huge dump truck full of money possible if not viewer demand?

Der Poopflinger: I don't think I've ever seen a person so in love with themselves or the sound of their own voice.

ya, but he does have a pretty awesome voice.

ha-ha-guy: The Brian does drugs was the first full episode of Family Guy I was able to make it through in awhile. For some odd reason I call them up on Hulu and am done by the second commercial break.

Right now I'm sad because American Dad writing seems to be on a down swing.

/that hot tub episode was terrible
//FG went downhill when Stewie went from evil mastermind to fairy

The hot tub episode was the first American Dad I didn't bother making my way through, I stopped it when it went into a commercial break about half way done on Hulu.

Agreed, but I did like the 'Hurricane' episode a lot, especially how much Roger hated his college girlfriend. Hell of a lot better than the Family Guy one, what a piece of trash that was. Not even any funny parts, just Brian's horrible trip which lasted waaaaay too long (I thought they were gonna have Stewie trip with him, what a waste there), and having Meg stick up for herself, and then go back to status quo was just worthless, nothing even funny about it. You just realize how much that family actually sucks.

American Dad has been pretty solid throughout its run, a few misses here and there, but it's the same with any show. They still maintain a tight family bond, no cutaway or random gags, and I always like how one random joke will then become referenced or even plot relevant later. Like how Francine said she hated George Clooney and that would be her "one kill", and then they have an episode where she tries to kill Clooney later. I'm a big fan of call backs, it makes the show seem more coherent.

As long as it ignored anything from the JJ Abrams abortion, I wouldn't mind seeing Seth MacFarlane do Star Trek.

He couldn't fark things up any worse than the last decade of Enterprise and Lens Flare has.

They said the guy behind Deep Space Nine was pitching something. Let him do it. Anything other than the "alien of the week that looks just like us except for a budgeted amount of latex teaches us about the human condition" tired horseshiat.

Jar Jar, Midichlorians, and Ewoks.

This thread reminds me of the time Kirk and Spock went back to 1930s NYC to change history:

Kirk and Edith Keeler are walking down the street.

Edith: You'll like this new Clark Gable movie...

Kirk: Clark who?

Edith: Why, that's what McCoy said...

Kirk: McCoy?!? DOCTOR McCoy?

Edith: Why, yes...

Kirk (shouting across the street): SPOCK!

Kirk crosses street, meets Spock, and together, they meet McCoy leaving a building. Kirk, Spock and McCoy shake hands, hug, chatter, while Edith crosses the busy street, just missing being hit.


As Edith reaches the other side, Kirk breaks out of hugging McCoy to shove Edith in a "blink-and you-miss-it" motion with one arm back into the street, when she is hit multiple times offscreen by traffic.
McCoy (slightly horrified): Jim.... do you know what you've done?

Spock: He knows, Doctor, he knows...

All pause, then laugh and continue hugging.

Jar Jar, Midichlorians, and Ewoks.

tribbles, multicolor skinned sluts, klingons with no ridges on their foreheads, why does god need a starship, all of Voyager, most of Enterprise, ST-TMP, ST4 the search for whales, must i go on??

You still haven't named anything worse than Episodes 1-3.

/Maybe Trek V. Maybe.

UKCoolCat: Also enjoy the mini-stories within the story that last over multiple episdoes: The golden jeweled "poo" from roger, where it changes the current owner, The squirrels ("what's eating gilbert grape theme, the president theme"), and Quad Mind. Those are the only ones I can remember.

Hahaha me too! The best part about the golden turd was when Jesus whipped it out during the Rapture episode after Roger said they needed something that was gold and encrusted with jewels to power his spaceship.

Jesus: "I found this during the Battle of Boca Raton"
