Wow, Season Four is coming out really freaking soon! December 4th.

I love this show. It's Family Guy with a soul. It proves that you can have a show that's both socially conscious and completely effing filthy. It is utterly depraved, and I love it.

What most impresses me about it, still, is that they figured out how to make Quagmire work. Whereas the "joke" with Quagmire is "ha, he's a literal rapist," the joke with the Hormone Monster is "wow, everyone has really effed-up thoughts, all the time, and yet we pretend like everything's normal." It does a great job of exploring the dark parts of ourselves in ways that are both hilarious and very human. Plus it has the most heartwarming talking vagina scene ever put to film.

My favorite character is definitely Jay, because Jason Mantzoukas is like the only guy who can pull off acting like a pervert all the time.

I had no idea the next season was coming out so soon! That's a great surprise. This show is so much better than it had a right to be and I am thrilled to be able to watch more in a couple of weeks.

This show is really really really really really really funny. Sorry for the bad contribution. But it is.

 

[Octopus Prime]

Yeah, no, yeah, it is.

Madhairs right, guys

New season is as funny, raunchy, and surprisingly heartfelt as ever.

And I'm pleased to say that madhair's Merry Hell beat it to the punch regarding one particular joke.

 

[madhair60]

Yes, I had to tell Salem about that, unless you mean another one. I haven't finished the season yet.

The opposition people hold to this show surprises me. I mean, I kind of get it - it does take risqué to the next level, but it does so in service of a fundamentally good message. I honestly think that if I had kids I would show them it.

Its good. The only criticism I've seen that I agree with is that Jenny Slate probably shouldn't be voicing Missy and I believe they've already corrected that.

If they wanted niece denise as a character they could have just had niece denise as a character.

The character designs are too grotesque. I assume that is intentional and reinforces the character’s feelings of being a hormonal beast-monster, but it is a huge barrier.

It’s been a while since I watched seasons 1-3 and the show has a big cast, so I can’t remember; is Natalie a new character?
