Oh God. I was watching TV with my sister and I saw this one episode of the show that dealt with morbid obesity, and they had these two women on talking about the problems it had caused in their lives, and so what Tyra Banks thought it would be a rich and fulfilling experience to do the same thing every other talk show host has done on these shows: She puts on a fat suit and walks around for a few hours and lives like these poor women who get degraded for their weight every day. And so it cuts back to the actual show and she starts talking about her experience and she starts weeping in front of these women who deal with that these things every day.

Wait, what? Why?

yeah, I'm pretty sure most of the people who say they hate Oprah really hate Oprah fans.

^^^^ Most of my acquaintances are, sadly, just like that. As much as I like Family Guy I hate when people reminisce about the episodes, seeing as how I've seen all of them and all they ever do on Adult Swim is play re-runs of it.

That is what I expect most peoples hate on originates. Realistically its an issue of getting popular. The show makes man popculture references and is generally well written using conventions that were unseen at the time so people really liked it. Now after watching the episodes over and over with people obnoxiously referencing it all the time in place of genuine personality (Im looking at you stoners), and the fact that as different as the show is it is still extremely structured, just in a different way.
Those are to legitimate reasons to no like to the show, or to dislike the fans. But I am calling out you who say its utter shit or that you have never liked it.

my parents watch loads of property shows where they just talk shit for half n hour. Some couple can't sell their house so they come in paint it beige and chuck all the couple's shit out and whatdaya know it sells like hot cakes. Or there's the other one where they try to find some really picky rich snobs a house in the country and a city pad. Can they find them for under 600 grand? Find out of after the break!

Family Guy is an absolute disaster. South Park is funny and satirical. Family Guy is just the down syndrome love child of South Park and Simpsons.
I also hate Oprah.

Family Guy isn't absolute mindless fart jokes like many think. There's actually a lot of humorous references to plays, music, and movies that hardly anybody catches. I used to think it was just idiocy until I payed more attention to it.

It's references, yeah, but in the most non-sequiter, bullshitty way possible. The entire point of the show is to let people go "oh man, that was funny! I totally understand that reference!" It's masturbatory name dropping of the worst type.

The first couple seasons were really good, man. But I liked Family Guy's old stuff better.
