That whole episode was good, actually. American fung is pretty much irredeemable though

He also hates it when the show gets self-referential and demands absolute firm continuity.

I think it's only fair that Roger gets to kill people, Stan kills people all the time when they remember he's in the CIA.

That said, there have been a few "Whoa! Too far!" moments for me as well. Like that one episode where that woman's husband fakes his death and Roger ends up talking her into killing herself. I know she didn't really end up dying, but I still can't watch that episode because it just feels too meanspirited. No disrespect to anyone who liked that episode, that part just really rubbed me the wrong way.

Its a Christine reference and also somehow Roger fits a limo into a bowling alley bathroom.

The only episode I won't watch (and I hardly ever see shown so others probably agree) is "Stan's Best Friend".

Brawnfire posted:The pirate cat hot air balloon gets me every time. The best part is when he falls to his death into a women's prison and a lady just looks out the window and says "A MAN!" and then that's it. It's the way she says it. Like "A MAyahn!" Also the balloon pirate looks like an older fat me so of course he's great. Sad puppy episodes don't bother me much. All the bird death is sadder, imo.

I think that fireman who got stuck in the well saving baby Francine also leapt into the air and snatched a bird then ate it.
