Family Guy


While I think that Family Guy is the greatest comedy to come along since the Simpsons, its audience has me a little confused. There are several jokes per episode that are based on late 70’s/80’s pop culture, yet “younger people” LOVE the show!

I find it interesting that they can’t get many of the big jokes (no disrespect) yet continue to love a show that seemingly alienates them. Either way, I’m not complaining.

Enough of the discussion, time for some quotes.

Guy on Airplane: “Oh great, I always end up sitting next to a damn baby.”
Stewie: “What did you just say?”
Lois: “Stewie, stop fussing.”
Stewie: “Pipe down Lois.” (Slaps guy on head) “Hey big man, turn around. Oh you can’t hear me now. I was going to watch the movie, but forget it. For the next 5 hours, your my bitch.”

Lois: I guarantee you a man made that commercial.
Peter: Of course a man made it. It’s a commercial Lois, not a delicious thanksgiving dinner.

Commercial:

“Pawtucket Patriot beer. If you buy it, hot women will have sex in your yard.”

I love that show! The 77 at the end of my name stands for the year I was born. I’m sure I miss some of the jokes.

I’m probably over the 30-day return limit, but I’m sure if you make a fuss they’ll at least give you a store credit or something. It’s actually not a horrible sweater, it’s just I can’t imagine when I would ever wear it, you know? Oh and I also left a button on the bureau, um I’m not sure what it goes to but um I, I can never bring myself to throw a button away, I know as soon as I do, I’ll find the garment it goes to and then it’ll, wait a minute actually could it have been from the sweater? Did that sweater have buttons? Hmm. Well I should wrap this up before I start to ramble. Again good-bye forever. PPS- You know what, it might be a little chilly in London, I’m actually going to take the sweater.

I’m 17, so I wasn’t around during the 70s-80s (probably around the time seth macfarland was growing up), but i still get almost all of the jokes (I think) due to the fact that I’m the son of two babyboomers that are keen to remind me that all previous generations are superior to mine.

Not only that, I (and alot of my friends) have a profound fascination with pop culture from the 60s onward, so I do pick up a lot of the inside jokes that most other teens don’t (you know, the ones that laugh their asses off when peter falls down some stairs trying to ride his makeshift waterslide, but don’t get it when Stewie quotes Richard III).

I’d like to think I get most of the jokes. Although I definitely did not get the one last night where Chris was pulled into the milk rack by the sketched hand.

I also am a fan. I was born in '85, so I have to look up some of the jokes, (or ask my parents). One I didn’t get the other night was:

Brian says “wait a minute”, and chases a little tiny wagon that rolls by, which then dissapears into the cupboard?

I guess it used to be a dog food commerical?

2 above me
It was a video to the band Aha they had one hit that one
Yes it was a dog food commercial

Damn I’m old I get every single referance they make

Brian’s talking to his shrink about his mom abandoning him:

“Hey, its her loss right? I turned out great . . . Huh? . . . Am I right? . . .Right? YEAH! Yeah you bet your ass I’m right! You wanna arm wrestle? Come on! Right now COME ON!”

Peter: Oh my god, Brian, there’s a message in my Alphabits. It says, ‘Oooooo.’
Brian: Peter, those are Cheerios.

Peter: I’ll handle it, Lois. I read a book about this sort of thing once.
Brian: Are you sure it was a book? Are you sure it wasn’t nothing?
Peter: Oh yeah.

Peter: Well, I’m gettin’ something really special too. And by special I don’t mean special like that Kleinaman boy down the street. More special like… like Special K, the cereal. Hey, what do they do with the regular K? And for that matter, what ever happend to K. Ballard? You know, if you said mallard and you had a cold, it would sound like ballard.
Brian: Do you listen to yourself when you talk?
Peter: I drift in and out.

Peter: It’s already done. I dropped them all off at Toys for Toddlers last night.
Brian: All? Peter, only only one gift was for charity, the rest were for the family.
Peter: No, the rest were from the family. Weren’t they? (Pauses.) Oh crap…since when did they change the meaning of “for” to “from”?
Brian: They had a meeting about it last night.
Peter: Why wasn’t I told?
Brian: They sent you a card, but it said “for Peter” on it so you must of thought it was from you, so you didn’t…you know, its just easier to call you stupid.

Great. Now I am going to have to LIVE in this thread.

And I paraphrase…

Stewie:
Hey Brian… what ever happened to Gina Davis? You never see her in movies anymore. She’s pretty enough, but you see too much gum when she smiles. Not a good tooth-to-gum ratio.

Brian:
… it’s just turned his life upside-down-face.

More…

I died when Flint from GI Joe made an appearance on this season’s premier. As a child of the 80’s, GI Joe and Transformers played a HUGE role in my life. And they constantly make references to them (ala the scene transition from Peter to Quagmire in the Quagmire-Loretta Affair and when Optimus Prime showed up at the synagogue).

Furthermore, Adam West is freaking HILARIOUS on this show.

Mayor West:
Oh… I LOVE this song. Epsecially when it’s sung by amatures. But I HATE baseball cards.

Mayor West:
…Not them, the rest of my Light Bright pieces. My name isn’t “Adam We”; or is it? Who am I? What number did you call? Don’t call here again. Guess I told him. Nobody messes with Adam We.

OK, sorry, one more then I’ll let someone else talk… This whole passage killed me. And now, thanks to that site, I can try and memorize the list!

Peter: Everybody I’ve got bad news. We’ve been cancelled.

Lois: Oh no Peter! How could they do that?

Peter: Well unfortuantely Lois, there’s just no more room on the schedule. We just gotta accept the fact that FOX has to make room for terrific shows like Dark Angel, Titus, Undeclared, Action, That 80’s Show, Wonder Falls, Fast Lane, Andy Richter Controls The Universe, Skin, Girl’s Club, Cracking Up, The Pitts, Firefly, Get Real, Freaky Links, Wanda At Large, Costello, The Lone Gunman, A Minute with Stan Hooper, Normal Ohio, Pasadena, Harsh Realm, Keen Eddy, The Street, American Embassy, Cedric The Entertainer, The Tick, Louie, And Greg The Bunny…

Lois: Is there no hope?

Peter: Well I suppose if ALL those shows go down the tubes we might have a shot.

Yeah, it was Chuck Wagon. It’d have a little wagon that did that same thing in the commercial.

It was a spoof on a music video by Wham. A girl gets pulled into a drawn scene just like that, and falls for that guy or something like that. The song was Take Me On I think.

Family Guy rocks like no other show. I just got a T-shirt for my B-day today. It’s got Stewie’s face on the front and “KILL BROCCOLI!” right above it. Frickin’ sweet.

I laughed my whole ass off at that one, it was great!

I love Family Guy! I don’t know-I’m sure some things go over my head. But I think I get a lot of the old jokes despite being a baby in the early 80s and a gleam in my Dad’s eye in the 70s.

I’m sorry to day that I’m old enough to get all the jokes. Being from Massachusetts, I also get the “local” jokes such as “Buddy Cianci Junior High” and the time they trekked to the “Twinkie Factory in Natick Massachusetts” after a nuclear holocaust. Good stuff.

Take On Me, by Ah-ha. It was very unique for it’s time.

Brian, holding out a drinking glass: Hit me. (Clown with seltzer bottle pours seltzer)

Brian: Now if I can find a midget with some gin.

Peter: Mets suck Jets suck Yankees suck
Lois then procedes to beat the shit out of each guy in the bar
short pause
Peter Krypton sucks
the kryptonian villians from Superman float over

Any superhero reference on that show makes me laugh
