Seeing that the 2nd Best Animated Comedy gets a post in here (i.e. The Simpsons) I thought we'd better have the Number One - FAMILY GUY! A drole talking dog with a drink problem. A Noel Cowerdesque sociopathic infant with a penchant for the most excellent retorts and puns amidst his attempts on his mother's life. An evil monkey in the closet. And some of the surrealist moments in television history that make the Young Ones and Narnia look like an advert for tax returns (by that I mean completely off the wall). And to top it off? Peter Griffin. The dad - obnoxious yet loveable... licenced to fart, say 'penis' inappropriately... true comedy! Want more proof? Show these to Matt Groening - thins is how it should be done: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioqO5mDE7u8www.youtube.com/watch?v=de8fFhygjmgAnd this last one... you want to hear Micheal Moore fart his way through 'Duelling Banjos' or to see how the Yanks SHOULD do an English accent wehn spoofing (rather than that poor 'Cockney Midlands' effort you get on the Simpsons) - then click here... and it featurse clips from series 5 which won't be available here until October... www.youtube.com/watch?v=de8fFhygjmg;D N.

Family Guy no.1 I'd say 2nd to Simpsons as they have kept up a high Standered longer...But when on top form FG is Funnier.

Yes Mr. Zygon true. And as ye typed that... I was modifying the post... The last clip in there has some stuff I've never seen before from the new series! Check it out. Now someone needs to do a thread on no. 3 - "King Of The Hill". More good clips here in this compilation someone did. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpbzNscGbHgIf I was to do a best of... would take me MONTHS to work out... But all the 'Pawtucket Pat' (i.e. Willy Wonka stuff) would have to go in there... along with some of the 'Mayor Adam West' stuff! ;D N.

My favourite ep of this show is probably "Road To Rhode Island" - I think Seth MacFarlane is just incredible, singing as both Brian and Stewie.

Watched that episode where they're all taking Ipecac and spewing everywhere... I STILL struggle for breath because I'm laughing so hard at that bit!

I bought the "Freaking Sweet Collection" last night, and, well, it's freaking sweet.
Seth's five favourite episodes, including my personal favourite, "Road To Rhode Island" with a bloody hilarious commentary by Brian and Stewie, which, for those who haven't heard it, is mostly Seth MacFarlane arguing with himself in character as both of them.
In a sense, better than the actual episode!
And finally, FINALLY, after being tormented by Columbo about it years ago, I can tell him I finally own a Family Guy DVD!!
Sweet!
