I'm just over halfway through the 1st series of this. I've never seen it before, apart from a few clips on YouTube.
It's not bad. I'm getting into it slowly. I don't think it beats the Simpsons though, but maybe when I've watched more I could change my mind....

It is good - they've brought out a Chrimbo one but it's a rip - two previously released Xmas episodes plus a 'Best Of Stewie'.
I'll not bother wi' it - I've got the feckin' lot!
;D

was never into this till a mate at work asked me about it.. grabbed season 1,2 and 3 for him and watched it before passing it on was quite funny, but agree not in the class of the simpsons.

You can actually tell in parts of this how they've tried so hard NOT to be 'The Simpsons'.
One scene I did find funny was where Peter was in the car dying for a Barry White, and kept passing subliminal signs as he drove... "Play Craps here", "Stools For Sale"...etc.! ;D

So I reckon it completely f*cks over the Simpsons... it takes parody to a next level - it's an obvious p*sstake of the 'flushing meadows' scene but it knocks it up a level! By the way - new season episode has a 'Police Squad' parody... Stewie riding his bike similar to the 'Naked Gun' opening style - ends up with Homer getting run over!  ;D N. |

Just finished the 1st season of this now. I must say, I got into it towards the last few episodes. One of my favourite's was 'Death is a Bitch'. I enjoyed that one! On to season 2 then............ |
