I really liked the Boys are Back in Town bit. The homeless guy looking like Phil Lynott was great, though that song really is about Garry Moore's guitar work. I sold too much music to guys in their 50s who were super cool in the 70s.

Loved how Hayley just says nothing and walks up the stairs after she finds out it's just Roger again I liked that they made the reveal by just showing the untied ropes and Hayley's bemused look. That's all we need at this point in the series. CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK posted:Steve did you notice there wasn't one black doll head?

this whole season had been really good but last episode was so tight, punchy and well produced, it's going to be a classic i think

I don't know, especially when you think about like 85% of the 250+ episodes have the exact same A plot; Stan Hates Thing Stan is Forced to Try Thing Stan Obsesses Over Thing Stan Learns Lesson

Are not all stories just variations on the Epic of Gilgamesh? Except the Epic of Gilgamesh Christmas episode. That was non canonical Gilgamesh.

I'm actually glad they went that way rather than the predicted Sanford and Son Parody. But then referring to a pretty much forgotten move from 30 years ago is more Ad style.

I don't really think Hayley or Steve would work as well with different ages. Too much of their characters kind of require them to be the ages they are.

Francine's plots are usually: Francine wants to be closer to/more involved with X Francine is too involved Francine pulls back & Accepts her life. But it's always great when she turns out to be some amazing academic or bar-room brawler.

Eh I'd say Hayley's rebellious daughter shtick would actually make more sense if she was high school aged, and Steve often acts more like a college student than Hayley ever does

I asked one of my black friends if that show appealed to him. I was thinking it may have been like Tyler Perry where its something you just don't get if you're white. He said a show about black people written by white people and voiced primarily by white people doesn't appeal to him. I guess that show was just bad, regardless of skin color.

drrockso20 posted:Way I see it, Cleveland Show was better than Family Guy, and while it never got as good as American Dad can get, it was still pretty decent Yeah, I think that "good" family guy episodes (and yes, there's definitely good and bad ones. God are there ever) were definitely better than TCS was on average, good Cleveland show episodes were better than bad FG episodes, and at this point, good and bad family guy is approaching Simpsons level ratios. Most importantly I think that the cleveland show was a much more positive show. Sure the family would argue and fight sometimes but you can mostly chalk that up to conflict contrivances and comedic hijinks, but they seemed ultimately to have some genuine affection for each other, even under strain. The Griffins, probably owing to the Simpsons more cynical influence, just kinda got meaner than hell after a while, as did the show in general. Meg should have been working towards emancipation at least a decade ago. In any case, whether you like (cuz nobody really loves it, lets be honest) or loathe the Cleveland show, we can probably all agree that replacing it with Bordertown was totally uncalled for.
