I got tired of the show a few years ago due to how lazy they've gotten with it. How many times did they cut away to Conway Twitty for several minutes, show an entire music video, or do the same joke over and over and over again? It's like they stopped putting forth any effort.

Or more recently when Peter was homeschooling the kids they showed the entire "Dancing in the Streets" music video by David Bowe and Mick Jagger. The first time they pulled that it was somewhat humurous because it was different, but then it just felt like they were padding the episode to make up for a lack of jokes or plot.

That's exactly what they're doing. MacFarlane is trying to get the show canceled. He wants it over with. Badly.

Yeah, I'm another fan adding voice to the "let it die" crowd.

The only thing I've been recently impressed with in the show was thepart when Brian got stoned, and the animation sequence was kinda spiffy.

American dad I've always been pretty "meh" about, and the Cleveland show I thought was rubbish anyway.
Something memorable here.

IMO FG has been dying a long, slow, painful death for ages. I really do think it's time to put it (and us) out of its misery.

R.I.P FG?

still like it. It hasn't become stale to me just yet. I look forward to it every sunday. It would be a shame to see it go. Plus the crop of new cartoons they're sneaking in on the side isn't capturing my attention half as much as "the tired" Family Guy stuff.

I laugh out loud once or twice with every new episode which none of the others do.

It's not dead yet.
