[QUOTE="Super Kami Guru, post: 3739, member: 22"] Family Guy plateaued, they absolutely did. It used to be a great show, had some seriously funny moments, but now it's so forced and hard to watch it just doesn't feel watchable. The Simpsons still has its' moments, but they also plateaued and have outlived their purpose. Shame, because Futurama was a much better (IMO) show at the time they killed it off, could have gone at least another season or two, and yet they killed it off while The Simpsons keeps going. If they can see that Futurama needed to end, why can't they see that The Simpsons needs to go, as well? Move on, make a new show with new characters (not Disenchantment, that was...no...). American Dad was the same, it was funny for a good while, had some great episodes, and then just like Family Guy, it reached a point where they were just trying too hard, forcing too much and introducing plots that were just not funny or interesting to watch. I love Patrick Stewart, amazing actor, but Bullock just became such a horrible character to watch after a while because his lines were so forced for the whole "OMG listen to what Patrick Stewart said!!" effect. The shows that did it right were King of the Hill and Futurama, and I'll give South Park credit for not being quite where The Simpsons and Family Guy are, but they're pushing things towards that end, as well. King of the Hill ended when it needed to end and in a way that made sense, the show was funny throughout, had a chance to develop some great characters and had some bigger emotional moments, as well, and then it ended. Futurama was awesome, had some incredible emotional moments and some absolutely hilarious moments throughout the whole show, and while I feel it ended a bit prematurely, it ended in such a perfect way, as well. You get the closure, but you also get the "man, I want more of that!" feeling. Family Guy definitely needs to figure themselves out or end the show, they're just not good anymore. [/QUOTE]
