Title taken from Cartman's rant:
"When I make jokes, they are inherent to a story. Deep, situational, and emotional jokes, based on what is relevant and has a point - not just one random interchangable joke after another!"

for those that dont know, its VERY BAD in the muslim faith to show ANY depection of Muhammed.

so, so tired of family guy...

Thats not entirely true K0MMIE. There are many images of Muhammed in the Muslim faith. It has only been in the last 100 years that a movement by conservative clerics has pushed for a ban on his images. There are several famous limages of him riding a donkey next to Abraham as they travel to heaven. There are two schools of thought concernng the issue. One is that it is wrong no matter what. Another is that it is okay to portray his image as long as it is respectful. Within the second school there are two seperate subgroups. One portrays him like any other human, while the other never portrays his face. There are several images of Muhammed without a face because of this school. For many images of Muhammed drawn by devout Muslims see the Internet History Sourcebook by Paul Halsall of Fordham University.

oh shut up

Sorry that you had to read something 1. I just thought that as a Muslim, it should be said that some do not think this way.

i like how this all started over a few FG posts... not that SP is 'better' or 'worse', as both shows are 'Equal Opportunity Offenders'

So has anybody actually watched South Park recently? Obviously not if you think that their critisisms of Family Guy are valid. The random nature of FG *is* the joke. SP is just bad toilet humor and swearing.

This nicely sums up Family Guy's descent into the realms of cookie-cutter humour. Season 4 just wasn't funny.

E-Major, it was a good comment, enlightening too, thanks; it's equally posible that 1zin1 was referring to plastique... fanboys get upset when you criticize their fav. cartoons.

everyone: when saying something like "oh shutup", well, it's best not to be flip like that, but if you're going to do it, please make it clear who you're yelling at to avoid misunderstandings.

I'm pretty sure that this episode of South Park ruined Family Guy for me. I still like to watch it from time to time, but I now immediately notice the whole interchangeable joke thing and it gets a little annoying.

It's exactly why (some of) the Simpsons writers immediately panned FG; I still appreciate the zaniness, though...

I'd have to say, more of a sleeper video in that it makes the real joke in the last few seconds. As much as it's making fun of Family, it's also making fun of itself, and those who are easily offended.

Family guy is just a rip off. With one or maybe two funny characters

I was under the Family Guy spell till I saw this. Thank you South Park.

thanks, E-Major, i didn't know that!

ps: didn't like this video.

I loved this episode of South park! It also dosn't make me think that family guy is any worse, in my view they both the beesknees!
Maybe it would be nice for some people just to leave it be if they don't like FG...some people don't like marmite but other people do, no need to go all OTT, get my drift?

Zing!

Interesting how American Dad is a helluva lot better than Family Guy (and any other cartoon for that matter).
