Family Guy on BBC2

[beaky]

They hit very hard sometimes, but everybody gets their turn... keep watching and you'll probably find yourself guffawing when they deliver a crotch-kick to some group other than you own...

And remember; it's not intended as a primer on what to believe or how to behave; it's just vicious satire.

There was plenty more 'offensive' humour around back in the 60's and 70's, when politcal correctness didn't dominate ... everything?

But Family Guy has plenty of 'non-mickey taking' jokes. I like things such as:

"They hired me because of my ability to say all 50 states in a quarter of a second....AGH..."
"That wasn't the 50 states, that was just a loud yelp..."

I wasn't talking about Family Guy as I've never seen it so can't comment. If it's satirical humour I would probably enjoy it as most of it is very cleverly done. Some of you obviously haven't seen what passes for comedy on British TV these days. Some of these so-called comedians have very little talent & rely on foul language & filth to get cheap laughs from the typical ignorant audience that seems to like this sort of thing. This is one of the reasons I rarely watch TV these days. I don't want  that sort of thing in my own home. It's all very well to say switch it off if you don't like it but then there's not much point in having a TV set. I'm no prude & can be vulgar myself if the mood takes me & could probably shock some people quite easily. If this is what they call comedy I've seen much better in the school playground when I was at school & on the shop floor at work.

I love their Germany jokes. Especially when it comes to german history (late night show named "Hitler"; the sausage sellers on the german fair).
