    This is semi-related to Family Guy, but you know what else sucks? The Cleveland Show. How this show made it into a second season is beyond me. The season premiere that aired in front of FG last night was just garbage. Just like FG, I think I chuckled once or twice. Every episode i've seen of that show is crap.

    And how many times can McFarlane recycle the same premise and call it a different show?!? Let's see.....stupid lead father character? Check. Rebellious/nerdy teenage kid characters? Check. Talking animal or other creature that shouldn't speak? Check. Middle class family home? Check. Repeated plots? Check. Same look to all the characters? Check. It's pathetic....

    Or it could easily be viewed as a parody on what Limbaugh presents himself as, and might believe himself to be, and indeed how many on the far left think the far right view themselves. In reality though, both the far right and the far left are c**ts.

    If memory serves they converted in the last few episodes of Season 20. We're now into Season 22. It's about time Family Guy went widescreen and spruced the look up a bit, it was looking decidedly out of date compared to the likes of the new-look Simpson's, and indeed how Futurama has looked for quite a while now too.

    I'll probably watch season two when it's on E4, but only as filler and time killer. As you say there are so many repeated elements. Cleveland would have been best kept in Quohog. Three MacFarlane shows on in one night? Sheesh ... give someone else a chance, yeah?

    Rush lost weight. He is not nearly as fat as he was in the 90's.

    You're giving them FAR too much credit.

    Which is exactly what every comedy--animated or otherwise--is typically striving for with guest appearances. Or was John McCain not poking fun at himself on SNL when he described one of his campaign strategies as "The Sad Grandpa"?

    How about the Team America theme song? After all, both examples were so obviously meant to be taken 100% seriously as pro-American right wing rhetoric, right?

    Yeah, yeah, I know this. My point is that their wink to the audience failed. Instead of funny it came off as being masterbatory.

    We don't actually know how it came off to the entire audience, only to a few posting here and based the comments, people are quick to assume a suck-dick agenda by the show's creator(s) simply because they (the viewers) dislike Limbaugh's politics.

    I'm not speaking for any viewers but myself. I really don't know too much about Limbaugh and I don't really care for politics, honestly. I'm only stating my opinion of that show.

    Obviously we don't know how all viewers perceived the episode.

    How about it? It sucked, as did this Family Guy episode.

    What does his politics have to do with anything? I disliked it because it was an obvious nod to a complete douchebag. My feelings about him being a douchebag have nothing to do with his political beliefs.

    What?! No fucking way, Team America was great! That whole 'dicks, pussies and assholes' speech was the best summation of politics and conflict I've ever heard - and "America, Fuck Yeah!" is a terrifically ironic song, but more than that it's still got a kick arse catchy sound to it.

    Then again, didn't Team America fail hard in America but do really well everywhere else? And no, that's not some kind of anti-America comment, nor a comment like 'everyone hates America' ... I can't stand that bullshit. Every nation on the planet has their fair share of c**ts.

    Team America sucked total ass.... and the song is fucking annoying and truly does pander to the easily amused.

    No offense MZ, but I have to say your taste in music and movies frightens me.
