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. [/quote]

Cool, so there’s tuff I don’t get either! Thanks for that.

Did you guys know that Seth MacFarlane was supposed to be on one of the WTC planes on 9-11? His assistant screwed up and gave him the wrong time for the flight.

Also, Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story! comes out in September. Warning: Contains Beverly Hills 90210 references.

My personal favorite quote is…

Random guy at pool: Sir, you can’t park your van on the diving board.

Peter: That’s my son!

Random guy at pool:(talking to friends) Hey, it’s just a fat kid. (talking to Chris) Hey, want a candy bar you fatty fat fat!

i love the show and have seen each episode so many times that im left speechless.

except for those words.

and those.

and those.

and those.

yeah he said that on the show i saw too. hee also said he was wicked hungover and he misses about 50 % of his flights. so his lifestyle’s payin’ off ! too bad for the guy who picked up his bump though …

First one I ever saw had Peter saying:

Jeez, who’d a thought social security fraud was one of her buttons?

It’s not here in Spain :frowning:

Some FG video clips:

By the way, Family Guy is on every night on the Cartoon Network at either 10 or 10:30 pm (I forget which) as part of Adult Swim. Last night had a good “old timey” reference:

Mayor Adam West: “Here, diagonally. Pretty sneaky sis.” (refers to commercial for Connect Four).

…I bet most of you are saying “What the hell is Connect Four”?

Family Guy is the only TV show I actually know the day and time of.

Hell, it’s the only thing I watch on TV that isn’t a sport.

Barr is lamer than FDR’s legs. What? Too Soon?

No Quagmire quotes???

He makes me laugh the hardest.

[Quagmire sees a cheerleader tied up in a bathroom stall]
Quagmire: Dear diary: Jackpot.

Quagmire: Hey there sweetie, how old are you?
Connie: 16.
Quagmire: 18? You’re first.
Connie: Mom!
Quagmire: I like where this is goin’! Giggidy, giggidy, gig-gi-dy!

Bridget: Quagmire, will you accept this rose?
Quagmire: Really? After I drugged you and had sex with your unconscious body?
Bridget: What?
Quagmire: Yes.

Peter: If you could be stranded on a desert island with any woman in the world, who would it be?
Quagmire: Taylor Hanson.
Joe Swanson: Taylor Hanson is a guy.
Quagmire: [Laughs] You guys are yankin’ me. “Hey, let’s put one over on Quagmire.”
Peter: No, he’s actually a guy, Quagmire.
Quagmire: What? That’s insane. That’s impossible.
[Pause]
Quagmire: Oh god. Oh my god. I’ve got all these magazines. Oh god.

Quagmire: “Hey there little lady. Why don’t you turn around and show me your Lower East Side.”
Woman (man voice) : “Sure.”
Quagmire: “Whoa, transvestite, back off! Wait a minute…pre-op or post-op?”
Woman: “Pre-op.”
Quagmire: “Whoa, transvestite, back off!”

Quagmire: Soccer moms alll right! GIGGITY, GIGGITY,GIGGITY!

Quagmire: Hey there spud in the mud.
Stewie: Oh god do you bathe in Aqua Velva?

Stewie (at a funeral, looking at the other babies): “I’d do her… do her… wouldn’t do her… Whew! who hasn’t done her?! …Lose the pigtails and we’ll talk…”

Omg I love family guy. I have seen every single episode about 10 times each. We don’t have the new series yet but I have been d/ling them from torrent sites (naughty naughty but I bought the DVD’s dammit I deserve free stuff).

Can’t be bother going looking up quotes but there is one in my head atm.

Peter “I have an idea, an idea so smart that my head would explode if I even began to know what I was talking about”

Just imagining the look on Peter’s face makes me laugh, does anyone else get that? Like it could show Peter sitting on the sofa doing NOTHING and you know the character so well you find him just sitting there funny. Ugh mayeb I’m just sad.

I think your main point is right, but I think the REAL popularity of the show lies within a sub-demographic of youth: late teens/college students who tend to be pop-culture obsessed. Furthermore, we all grew up with cable tv, and now have 300 channels being fed to us 24 hours a day. reruns, reruns, and more reruns, not to mention shows that celebrate the pop culutre past.

and recreational drugs.

OK I lied, THESE are the last ones. Oh, dear I’ve spontaneously combusted.

Some of the stuff is so wrong but you just have to laugh.

Like the part where Peter reflects on how hard Lois’s preagnancy was on him.

Then it cuts to a scene of him watching TV in the bedroom. Lois is in the bathroom in the background having morning sickness. Peter looks at her annoyed then turns up the TV so he can hear it better.

Peter Griffin: This comic sucks! He couldn’t make me laugh, even if I was laughing my ass off and he was making me do it. Come on, Skinny! Make me laugh!
Lois Griffin: Peter, that’s a microphone stand.
Peter Griffin: Pardon me for thinking a mic stand in a comedy club should tell a joke or two. I guess I’m just old-fashioned that way.

The face that Peter (obscenely drunk) makes during that last line when he’s leaning against Brian is priceless.

Peter: Isn’t it a beautiful day, Mr. Sun?
The Sun: IT SURE IS PETER, WITH TWO SCOOPS OF RAISINS.

The sun drops two scoops of raisins a la the cereal commercial. They are huge and one of them crushes a car causing the alarm to go off.

And who can forget the classic reality show . . . FAST ANIMALS. SLOW CHILDREN.

Quagmire quote

Looking at Lois through the window beating on some guy
“Oh wow that’s hot” Window slams shut
“Hello EMT’s yeah it’s Quagmire again, no this time it’s stuck in the window”
