Back when I was a stupid high school kid I found Family Guy HILARRRRIIIOOOUUUSSS! But now that I'm all grown up I can't stand it. All it is is "RANDOM CULTURAL/MOVIE/INTERNET MEME/CELEBRITY REFERENCE != COMEDY!!!!!" It's like watching one of those "MOVIE" movies in animated tv series form. I haven't watched since the fourth season I think (right after it came back from being cancelled) but I've seen bits and pieces here and there.

American Dad is just flat out boring. It's Family Guy with more political "commentary" and less non-sequiters.

And The Cleveland Show...let's just not even talk about it.

I have to give Seth McFarlane kudos though. He found a formula to money making that can't really be beaten. Zero budget animation and zero budget writing with maximum return. He's giving Japan's animation industry a run for it's money!

The real shame is that there's actually people with plenty of talent working on these shows, and I feel like it's being wasted in favor of an easy paycheck. Not that I can blame any of them.
