31943, The archived Family Guy hate post restored my faith in humanity... Posted by celery77, Wed Nov-16-05 03:03 AM
No joke.
Hating that show can be pretty fucking lonely in a college town, and then I happen upon this archived thread that is a reasonably well thought-out critique of the show that I personally can't watch for 5 minutes despite everyone I know constantly getting high and pressing "play all."
'Twas truly beautiful to know that I wasn't alone, other intelligent people saw it for a fraud as well, and that my reasons for hating it went beyond simply resisting the sheep mentality of college cultural consumption. (And I don't mean to reopen debate. I've accepted that some people like the show, and that me and a few other PTP'ers are not one of them.)
And otherwise, yeah, the movie discussion here is almost always pretty fruitful. Very similar to the type of shit I talk with my movie watching friends, which is a good thing.
