That's like saying watching 4 lesbians get it on is better than watching 3 besbians get it on. It might be true, but damn... what was I saying?

Probably the best quote from that show.

Peter: "Holy crap, is that my bill or my phone number?"
Nurse: "Uh...that's your phone number sir."
Peter: "Oh...neheheheheheheheh(Griffin laugh, hard to type.) well it's still pretty damn big!"

or:

Welcome to Cheezie Charlie's! HEIL HITLER!

Well, one of the beauties of Family guy is that it got axed in it's prime. Who knows what the show would be like if we where on episode 5 or 6 right now?

I love the shows but southpark is getting repetitive and simpsons has been going so far down hill from it's prime. Futurama was doing an ok job of staying fresh, but it got axed as an award.

In the third season you saw the creators thrashing about a little, killing peters boss, turning peter into of all things a fisherman etc. Not sure if anything was added by those changes.

I think it is great that the team had a chance to take a break and come back at the show with a fresh start.

I must have seen every show 3 times, favorite moments are actually non cartoon:

Peter does drugs and things get too real: flash to non cartoon peter in the real world
After the Y2K episode they did a remake of the end of dalas with the original actors (it was all a dream)
Peter says something about alysa milano using drugs: flash to real life alysa yelling at her lawyer to sue.

Oh there was one perfect cartoon moment that epitomized what makes family guy great. It's in the episode peter goes to washington, the evil cigarette owner is happy to see a pet poodle, then yells "pull" an they throw the poodle out the window for skeet practice. I think the beauty of the family guy was the ability to suprise me even in episode 3 after 50 shows or so....

That's great news. I thought this show was done as season 3 was the last season and it was 2 or 3 years ago, right?

They brought it back from the stellar dvd sales, its the best selling dvd box set... ever.

I dont know, theres some amazing quotes from lots of those cartoon shows :p

Homer: "Hello Plow King? I was wondering if you could plow my driveway on top of forbidden widows peak."
Barney: "I dunno I'd be up there all day... I wouldnt be able to plow any other driveways."
Homer: "Theres a $10000 bill in it for you"
Barney: "Oh yeah, which presidents on it?"
Homer: "All of them, they are having a party, Jimmy Carter is passed out on the couch."

its back by popular demand, litterally
it is the first show to come back due solely on DVD sales
it was the number one selling DVD one year, so fox decided to bring it back

Wow, I can't wait!!

Stewie: "Yea, and God said to Abraham you will kill your son Issac, and Abraham said I can't hear you, you will have to speak into the microphone. And God said oh, I'm sorry, is this better? Check, check, check, check. Jerry, pull the high end out, I'm still getting some hiss back here."

heheh.
