Family Guy (Seasons 5 & 6)

"Family Guy" is basically a bad show, over-reliant on making fun of celebrities who aren't much higher morally or in terms of talent that the creator himself, with poor writing that feels as if it were randomly selected by manatees, and an over-reliance upon parodying superior storylines and passing them off as its own to viewers who aren't as knowing of current pop-culture. The characters are uneven, and some of the events or actions that take place are borderline gross, desperate in their necessity to shock or be funny. Despite all of this, which makes "Family Guy" a technically bad show, its still pretty funny, and decent lazy television. It's not "good" in any way, but its not terrible. Indefensible in any way, but not bad for stupid entertainment.
Family Guy: ★★1/2
