anyone else watching the star wars family guy???

[deathstrike from hell]

its genius!

 

[Chromatose]

I was.

and no. It's terrible.

And then once it hit the 30 minute mark and I realized it was going to be an hour, I gave up completely.

 

[Captain Beard]

I get no cable back here anyway.

 

[Dead_Lioness]

I was.

and no. It's terrible.

And then once it hit the 30 minute mark and I realized it was going to be an hour, I gave up completely.

Oh man, I DVRed it, shall I not even bother?
was it lame-O?

 

[dreaming neon darkspot]

my room mate has it on. i never saw any star wars movies so it's all kinda over my head, but the National Lampoon's Vacation reference made me laugh.

 

[Chromatose]

Maybe if you love star wars and all the puns and injokes referencing to other things in star wars gets you off THEN YEAH GO RIGHT AHEAD!

Otherwise, for the family guy viewer, the only things remotely funny were the rehashed character cliches. In this sense, the writing for this episode is terrible.

 

[neal]

its on in like 2 hours or something. im probably gonna go watch them sunday cartoons over at my homie's place with the big screen tv.

 

[DreamNeonBlack]

I thought it was pretty good actually.

Anyone see the opening credits to the Simpons? THAT was genius, they totally referenced the movie for the season premeire

 

[MSR mistress]

I am watching it now, thanks to my DVR and it is funny. I am not a Star Wars fan girl, but i grew up in the 80's so i remember growing up on the original 3. Great way to start the season. Hey where's the Indiana Jones eposode?

 

[dreaming neon darkspot]

yeah, i was wondering if they were going to make spiderpig a character in the series or something...

 

[dreaming neon darkspot]

futurama = far better. "I now leave earth with no raisins!"

I was actually fairly impressed with The Simpsons tonight... hopefully they can keep steady for the season.

Waiting for Family Guy to come online since I was eating dinner and missed the first half of it, so I'm not bothering to watch the second half... till I see the first half. Etc.

" aaah, my summer love "

will and i saw that movie before the flight to seattle. when they got to the part about going to seattle, it was so spooky

 

[EricT]

So, I watched it... It was alright. Only a few standout moments: John Williams & Danny Elfman, Doctor Who reference, and the ending conversation about Robot Chicken doing it first.

 

[dreaming neon darkspot]

i was just waiting for them to throw in something about robot chicken.

it reminded me of the south park episode about family guy

 

[EricT]

Well, not exactly the same thing as what south park did. Trey and Matt completely bashed Family Guy, where as the end of this episode was Chris (Seth Green, one of the creators and writers of Robot Chicken) was arguing with Peter (Seth McFarlane)...

Still funny in the end. Haha.

 

[dreaming neon darkspot]

just the whole self-referential "breaking the fourth wall" thing, i love how often family guy does that

 

[dreaming neon darkspot]

the new simpsons episode wasnt half bad either. it's getting kinda tired, but you still gotta love it

 

[EricT]

Well, it was really lame the past 10 seasons or so (despite this, I kept watching since I have nothing better to do), but I'm hoping with the movie going over so well that they get a second wind.
