For anyone who didn't see family guy last night. Stewie was dressed up like a Nazi and found a McCain/Palin button on his Nazi jacket.

Honestly, I found it pretty distasteful even for frickin family guy.

Not really a big deal, but I thought I'd bring it up...

There was a thread about this last night, and we're already established that Family Guy isn't funny and therefore whether or not their jokes are tasteful have very little to do with it.

It wasn't funny because it didn't make any sense. It especially makes them look dumb when all US based racist organizations (Neo Nazi, Skinheads, etc.) consider them selves democrats. :roll:

Hmm I looked for it and did not find anything. Oh well, my bad...

Family guy is horrible this season. Last season was the last tolerable season IMO...

Family Guy is no longer as good as it once was. Now it's just Seth MacFarlane whining about his political views.

It's meant to be funny, obviously they're going to joke with stuff that's happening now.

Family Guy hasn't been funny in along time. The most distasteful thing they've done is when they made fun of veterans awhile back. They made fun of McCain for being a POW, and that was way before he was running for president. It didn't offend me as much as there was absolutely no humor in it what so ever.

Insaulting half your audience especially with something that doesn't make any sense isn't funny nor is it a smart business move. Nobody wants to see jokes about real life. We can watch the news for that. Bashing real life situations is where the Simpons first started its decline. Leave that for South Park.

I don't remember that but I DO know this season has made me ill. The whole Jesus dying in Mary-Kate's apartment then rising again was just terrible. In fact, I felt there really was nothing remotely funny in that episode, and the one where Brian tries to find love with another Athiest who ended up cheating on him with Cleveland also didn't seem funny to me. :?

I think Republicans are the last ones to realize that the election is over.

Family guy has gone after everyone, from any race, creed, religion, or political party at one point or another. The reference was so over the top I cannot even believe someone would take it seriously. It was a spoof on partisan politics, as was the WMD line that followed it in the next scene.

The TV shows are getting their shots in now, because come December no one will care about McCain and Palin, just as no one cared about Kerry or Dole the month after they lost.

I stopped caring about Family Guy a long time ago. Their jokes just go too far for my taste.

American Dad has taken Family Guy's spot.

Does everyone that is offened by this 2 second thing get their panties in a bunch over the other "offensive" things such as:

Brian the Racist

Peter the Bulemia Doctor

"You Have AIDS"

Herbert who has a thing for little boys

"Prom Night Dumpster Baby"

Should I go on? I didnt seen any of these on here. But some stupid button on a Nazi uniform is all of a sudden a big no no. Ever think that Hitler would have been a McCain fan because of Obamas race??

South Park said it best "either everythings ok to make fun of, or nothing is...."

**Sorry if the pic offends...**:P

SETTLE THIS: FAMILY GUY IS NOT FUNNY. IT IS RANDOM, BUT PREDICTABLE, AND WHEN YOU DON'T PREDICT IT, IT IS NOT FUNNY. I REPEAT: FAMILY GUY IS NOT REMOTELY FUNNY!!!!!
