Well, I don't get pedantic about grammar. And everyone is welcome to ignore me.

This is a wonderful comment. All in the Family was a remarkable show in that it actually made serious commentary on societal ills while also being uproariously funny, much unlike similar shows (LaVerne & Shirley comes to mind). The way in which it goes about this is actually similar to Family Guy, as far as the humor integration, main character types, &c go, except of course that it was live-action and more serious. If you've never watched it, consider this a personal recommendation.

Is it really discriminatory if you put down everyone?

**Araciel** · 01-23-2007, 04:18 AM

Just like South Park, Family Guy takes shots at everyone and everything. You can't really be discriminatory if you make fun of everything.

Also, as already stated, it's defacing intolerance.

It's funny.

It mocks the discriminating, more likely, IMO. However, a REALLY discriminating show is....

THE DISCRIMINATION SHOW!

Greased-up deaf guy, Asian reporter Trisha Takanawa, Cleveland... yeah, it's mean, but funny. Besides, it's racist against everyone. If you hadn't noticed, white guy Peter Griffin is a fat dumbass. It picks on everything.

He's actually black.

Olli Willams I like the show, even though Futurama is much better.

**Strider** · 01-24-2007, 06:11 PM

It's nowhere near as bad as American Dad.

I like when people get offended by jokes. It is hilarious.
