This show is crap!!!! not funny not funny not funny


What show will this crap replace?

reply

This show sucks! and its probably going to take over American Dad or King of the Hill's time slot if it continues on longer.

First of all, this show is not bad at all. It's a fairly original concept - in the sitcom world - and it has a ton of potential. The story can actually go somewhere. Also, if you haven't seen it's ABC comtemporary, Sons & Daughters, Free Ride is a hell of a lot funnier than that Curb/AD/Office rip off.

And one more thing, American Dad is complete SH!T - I'm convinced McFarlane is a one trick pony - and this is King of the Hill's last season anyways so I don't see any reason for griping about that.

this show is not funny wow the parents talk about sex alot ok it don it matter if you think this show is funny there is somthing wrong with you

If you think that "American Dad" (Family Guy-American Dad is to Simpsons-Futurama) is a better work than this show, there is something wrong with you.

Give "Free Ride" a chance. It's actually pretty original.

this show is funny.

This show is pretty lame,a nd i gave it a chance by watching the first couple of eps, i dont think the casting was done particularly well apart from the main character who seems alrite. but the writers need to come up with some gold if they expect to get a show here. i reckon i'll take up watching the loop but i dont think this is gunna be worth it.

Futurama wuuuules you bastard, spawned from the devil's sh*t!

reply

Yea, futurama did rule…but thankfully it was cancelled or else they would of keep going and going with it like the simpsons…the simpsons blows chunks now…go watch futurama episodes like “The Sting”, “Jurassic Bark” and “The Luck of the Fryish” and show me any episode of the simpsons as good as them…good luck, you'll need it..

Learn to spell before dissing people, agreed? Everybody has their own opinions. I for one, don't mind the show. It's only a midseason show, meaning it's only taking over the American Dad timeslot for a couple of weeks. (There's only six episodes in the first season). So in a few weeks your complete rip-off of Family Guy by the same creator will be back on.

Besides, it's actually not that bad for a single-camera partially improvised comedy. But everyone has their own opinions. But there's not "something wrong with you" if you like it.

This show is great. It's like a ball of awkwardness surrounded by funny idiots. It's like arrested development mixed with the office. It's one of those shows that's is so filled with goodness that it goes by really fast.

Don't wander into abandoned churches for Czakyr will grab you from underneath the watery grave.

made me laugh, and american dad didn't so you do the math which shows better.

reply

I think it's great

I definitely enjoyed this show much more than American Dad. I think Seth was trying to avoid using the same jokes in two of his shows, and was attempting to split them between AD and Family Guy, which might explain why FG just isn't as funny as previous seasons.

I love this show.

At 21-22 that kinda stuff shouldnt bother you like it does when you are 15-16


You can be 31-32 and be bothered by the idea.

reply

This show is heavy on the "sit" and pretty light on the "com".

reply

I don't know why but I just love this show. It reminds me so much of actual life and you don't feel awkward for laughing at it either. It's not so scripted that you just can see the jokes coming.

Ionno, I just really liked it.

Is this show meant to be a comedy? Here in Australia it's classified as a drama.

IMO it's a bit amateurish, there's no chemistry between any of the characters, the actors seem to be very inexperienced. The parents argue over nothing (like his mother is in permanent PMS), real people don't interact like that (at least no one I know). The girl engaged to the other guy doesn't seem like much of a catch and he doesn't either. The characters all talk back and forth so quickly there's no way I can believe they're actually processing what the other person says before they come back with their response.

Maybe I'm too old to appreciate the drama/comedy involved in being a 20 something loser who lives at his parents house expecting to be treated like a success.
