Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 жов 2024
- Family Guy is back here on Mr. Cow! In this VERY special episode, Mr. Cow looks back on a forgettable episode of Family Guy with one interesting aspect about it. How did this turn into a 13 minute video? Guess you'll have to watch to find out! Seriusly though this is a strange little story that reminds us all that even though sometimes we might tell a joke that's not funny, Family Guy is always there to take what doesn't work about comedy and DOUBLE IT!

"They made fun of me, why can't I make fun of them?"
"Seth, you shot a baby"
“They take jabs at us? Why can’t we take jabs at them?”
“Seth, in the Simpson did Lenny ever rape Lois and kill the rest of the griffins one by one!”
@@gomerjomer9209 I object to Lenny being seen as the counterpart to Quagmire. I love Lenny.
@@CyberController-the 'problem' is that the Simpsons doesn't really have a character similar to Quagmire, the closest you could get would prolly be Moe
@@pokeninjafireemblemAnd even then Moe has stated that while he loves Marge, he doesn’t do anything because he respects Homer.
@@CyberController-you leave Lenny out of this 😡
This whole joke is pretty bad, but the killing Simpsons part could have actually been made somewhat funny and excused it not being animated. You hear Maggie's pacifier, the pause, and then the gunshot. There should have been another pause, and then you hear the pacifier again. This would imply that Maggie shot Quagmire.
Your recommendation sounds like a better written joke than Family Guy's entire show
honestly meh
In character for Maggie too considering she shot Mr Burns.
After the first seasons@@SlurpyPie
It doesn’t seem out of character for Maggie too
This joke was the equivalent of someone calling you a nerd and then you responding by burning their house down
Wrong.
@@Lou-yf1joidk seems accurate to me, simpsons would launch spitballs, family guy launched nukes
@@Lou-yf1joWrong.
No it's the equivalent of someone calling you a nerd and then you responding by killing their family.
@@DevDabs420Officialnot even a funny nuke either like the one the US launched at Japan it's an unfunny one
If the last gunshot was followed by the sound of Maggies pacifier, that would have saved it, because it’s paying tribute.
That wouldnt make it funny
@@lifeisstr4ngewhy not?
@@ZadocWright-o3g personally, I think it would be a tone whiplash, from a super dark joke to a simple goofy one.
You'd have to do something about the rake.
By bringing up Sniper baby, one of the worst jokes on the Simpson?
"Why can't we make fun of them? They've made fun of us 5 times." The fact that Seth's counting how many times he's been made fun of makes it sound like the bit was more malicious and petty than he wants to let on.
You never figure that some people are just good at remembering?
@@spartan113ishNah, that does sound petty.
No surprise there
nah i think thats bullshit. you and this guy who made the video just randomly decided seth must be petty. his response to the joke shows to me hes much more angry at the network telling him no than he is from the simpsons writers. theyve also collabed and the simpsons themselves had homer be graped by a bear.
@@nilktots6380 Don't defend Seth on this. The jokes that Simpsons made about Family Guy had always been tame. This joke Seth did about The Simpsons is just mean spritited, that's why it's hated.
The only thing that saves it is if you interpret Maggie shooting Glen at the end.
Maybe?
It works for treehouse of horror, but not for regular simpsons.
@@curtisleblanc5897 remember she shot Mr burns and in more modern ( non treehouse ) episodes context most likely she did it on purpose
@@curtisleblanc5897if you watched Who Shot Mr. Burns then this would make more sense to you
Given that episode where she saved Marge from the mafia gangs by shooting from the window, this would be 100% Simpsons lore accurate. Maggie could easily solo most of the Family Guy crew tbh.
I actually have a Mandela effect with this gag because I could've sworn that the end was after the final shot rings out, you hear Maggie's pacifier again, implying she had shot glen. But I guess it's just how I remembered it
This joke is pretty bad and distasteful but what will always be hilarious about this imo is the way Bart says “iCiRuMbA!!! mOm aNd DaD aRe DeAd!!!”
And Lisa's biggest concern with her parents dying is that she has nobody to pay for he saxophone lessons
@@Grey.Agent00 That was honestly a bit in character for her to be fair
That part with Bart is the only reason I find that scene hysterical
I feel like the worst part about this joke is that if they just deleted the part where Quagmire was trying to assault Marge it would be funny.😢
is it though or are you just whining
Quagmire has never been written consistently throughout the ENTIRE show. It's either he understands consent or he doesn't understand it at all.
He understands it he just doesn’t care. His house being built to restrain women with robot arms and drugging women and even dead bodies
No either it's he's a normal human being who has an addiction to a Judge Holden level of degeneracy
Or doesn't care
He also has made several "Jokes" and outright advances on underage girls including his own infant daughter.
“Quagmire you’re a rapist.”
This is the same crew who got pissy when South Park compared their writers to manatees with word balls. 😑
Then, when Carol Burnett--the classic comedian--sued for the obscene use of her caricature from her 70's variety show, they spitefully called her a "bitch" at one of their SDCC panels, and continue to say disgusting things about the comic icon to this day out of spite.
They have no taste at all, and shows that their "humor" is just ugly edgelord mess for the lowest denominator of audience, and that's all they have.
IIRC, it wasn't the Manatee joke that made Seth upset, it was the fact that Matt and Trey directly called the Writing Team lazy in the DVD Commentary of Cartoon Wars.
@@SudrianRepublic but, they are lazy. Matt and Trey are not the only one calling them out. This video also call Family guy lazy and bad. 5:56
@SudrianRepublic well in comparason cutaway jokes are more lazy than jokes that are being part of whole story. Nothing to be pissed about it's just facts. It still can be funny tho.
Sorry i got lazy with practicing my english so my sentences can be a little bit off.
Goofball @@Forysan
Matt Groening really hated this, and he nearly stopped speaking to MacFarlene all together over it.
That’s really sad
Kinda understanble.
Completely justifiable
I love the contrast between the replies
Petty ass
Perhaps fox didn’t want an explicit rape and murder joke in their show 😭😭😭 Seth’s response is so stupid
It's spelled "Stoopid."
The joke isn’t the rape itself, it’s the normal ass Simpson advertisement becoming that whole thing. You’re a kid who didn’t watch TV back then, it is very edgy but you can’t judge things in the wrong context
@@oldylad🤦♂️ Really? Is that the hiII you wanna die on?
@@oldylad the joke is literally “haha quagmire raped marge and she liked it, oops homer found out so quagmire has to kill the family”
Seth only exists because Fox was the only network who agreed to broadcast "Family Guy" back in the day.
The Simpsons are always making fun of Fox but Seth is vitriolic, he has practically daddy issues against a TV network lol
Fun fact: For the latin american dub of this joke, they got all the actual voice actors from the simpsons' latin dub to do it as their respective characters, which, while still not making the scene funny, did make it more surreal to see.
Wrong.
As a full blooded Ñ , you are wrong this was hilarious
@@carlosm7067Fue más raro que gracioso
@@Lou-yf1jo ?
Something that put Family Guy’s pettiness into perspective for me is when I saw a compilation of Family Guy references in the Simpsons, which was like two or three minutes long. Around what you’d expect since it’s so brief and to the point.
Then I got recommended a compilation of Simpsons references in Family Guy, which was more like ten minutes long. That means for every jab the Simpsons took, Family Guy takes around five back.
They did the same thing with Bob's Burgers. Constantly undermining the show and then kinda acting bitter when they didn't win any awards but Bobs Burgers did. Not to mention the fact Bob's Burgers also got a movie that was made with love just like the Simpsons and Family Guy has yet to have done that. I'm still betting the finale to Family Guy is the movie.
@@snakefang1123no doubt the Simpsons, Bobs Burgers, & even South Park will be remembered fondly as animated classics many years down the line.
Meanwhile I can only wonder how Family Guy will be remembered? Since lots of its jokes did not age well and knowing how much spite the creators have for these other shows. Demonstrated perfectly by what the videos about.
@@Private-Potato I actually think family guy will be remembered fondly, as long as they tone it down with the shock for the sake of shock. It's not really their thing so they should stop trying to force it. Especially the stuff with pregnant Stewie...
I think people will look back fondly on it as THE parody of family based sitcoms and just how ridiculous it can get as a concept.
@@Private-Potato Show till probably end with Peter leaving the family, he WAS a family guy.
It's kinda like how every episode of the Simpsons set in the future established that Homer and Marge AT SOME POINT do get divorced but get back together after years, bart becomes his father, and Lisa doesn't get the perfect ideal life she thought she would but she makes the most of it. Oh and Maggie is the most successful.
It just feels like at some point Peter is gonna man up and admit he's not the best father and do what's best and take himself out of the family dynamic. But he'll do it with love cause he knows he's the one holding them all back.
@@Private-Potato south park maybe not, south park has aged pretty horrific compared to other properties, especially with how... gross and iffy some of the episodes are, i can see south park aging pretty badly, even shake like me, the worst episode of aqua teen (athf is pretty good) is pretty tame compared to how shitty south park can be, especially with matt and trey both being upper class white dudes, it kinda makes any moral commentary or lesson null when the whole episode was just 2 rich cishet whiteguys making fun of marginalized groups, especially with all the enlightened centrism garbage
In comedy this would be called this a "Pizza Cutter" joke.
Which is to say all edge and no point at all.
Wrong.
@@Lou-yf1jo LOL brilliant argument!!
@@incoggnito1667dude he's said that 65 times now. I don't even get it
Instead of Glenn, you could have had Joe roll up and run over Marge's foot. He tries to apologize, but then Homer shows up and they fight. But then, midway through they look at the camera and realize they're still in an ad and try to act chummy, Homer especially because he was just attacking a man in a wheelchair.
That actually would’ve been funnier
I would’ve preferred that.
You see that works because that one is actually funny
That actually be funny and way better idea.
That’s a really good idea actually
Seth MacFarlane says he wanted to take a shot at The Simpsons because The Simpsons have done it to Family Guy "like five times." The fact that this is his idea of getting back at them is kind of a perfect metaphor for the difference between Simpsons humor and Family Guy humor. The Simpsons' critiques of Family Guy tended to be pretty subtle and quick, but clever. Whereas Family Guy's response is low brow and crude, and they expect the audience to laugh just at the fact that a reference is being made (in a clunky and needlessly drawn out way).
Not to mention how he's desperately trying to start a fight with Bobs Burgers.
This is actually a really good way of looking at it, I like it.
The joke is not all that bad.
@@RobinTheMetaGod Bro cries when he sees men holding hands, and thinks his opinion on a mediocre show has any value.
@@genericname2747
That is a childish reaction from someone that does not understand why sane people hate liberals.
Grow up.
That is never the case.
People hate gay agenda being forced, not gay people themselves.
You make liberals look bad.
Seth McFarlane had insane logic here. "They take shots at us but we can't fire back?", and it's a shit joke about raping and killing the Simpsons I'd have made when I was 11.
and?
And your the same when this guy was 11@@DanielJacobs-rz1zl
What do you expect from a guy whos an unfunny one trick pony, does the same family guy voices in every talk show appearance, even his movies were the same shit. Ted was live action Family guy with the same music, cut away gags and jokes. He still milks family because his spin offs aren't as funny and he knows it.
@@Uncle_Ruckus_ uncle ruckus based as always
Are you some kind of w0ke BS? It's a joke.
Remember when Moral Orel was canned early because they had a character who was S.Aed show signs and habits that actually occur in REAL victims?
So I guess it's ok to make jokes about This stuff, but if you take it seriously, it's too much for people to handle.
I mean they were on different networks
That’s not what happened at all what lmao?
@QGUU that's exactly what happened, Dino has mentioned it before and the description of the episode in question literally says "the final nail in the shows coffin"
@@dawa_- I’ve looked and didn’t find any of that at all. You got a link by any chance?
Yeah, and the show had already had women get S.Ad. The network WANTED it to be dark, but the second it's serious it gets cancelled
It's funny because years later they try pulling these kinds of jabs on Bob's Burgers until only recently where they had to begrudgingly admit that Bob's was the better show, while Bob's barely acknowledged Family Guy's existence. Now look what happened: Bob's is still on Sunday night, and Family has been relegated to WEDNESDAY FUCKING NIGHT.
That's where low brow edgy humor gets you.
You mean they had to BURGrudgingly admit it!
@@EngineerMonkey-zp3yj Didn't know a Bob's Burgers writer had a UA-cam account.
@@ThelronFjord Well, ya know, I try!
Difference is that Family Guy is actually a good show
“It feels like it was made by an eighth grader”
you just summarized my thoughts on Family Guy as a whole. i’m convinced that Family Guy is actually made for kids who want to think they’re watching an “adult show”
i could easily say the same about helluva boss

Marge sounds more like Toad from Mario Sunshine
"What's this inky paint like goo?"
"It's moving!" - Toads discussing inky paint like goo, and seeing it move
Ironically she sounds like how Marge does now since Julie Kavner’s voice is shot to all hell having to do it for 30 years.
@@ChrisSuperDude real talk, feel bad for her.
Bro trueee!! XdD
@@ChrisSuperDude Julie has Sounded like a Cross between Selma Bouvier and Timon's Mother on the Lion King for 20 years now. Her Raspy "Classic Marge" voice has been gone for over 25 years.
The joke just felt so spiteful and immature. I’m glad someone actually put it into words
Nothing saves this joke in my opinion.
Because Marge would NOT enjoy any of it.
She's not that kind of person AT ALL.
I wish it went like this:
• Quagmire chases Marge across the screen both ways
• after a few laps we instead see Homer chasing Quagmire with some kind of blunt melee weapon (possibly on a chain)
End joke
MAYBE it could continue with homer walking back across with a bloody weapon.
So your idea is to remove something that is funny but that you find offensive for something that is neither offensive or funny... Congratulations, good job, have a cookie
@@leonardohidalgo5127I think you missed the part where the consensus reached was that the former joke wasn’t much funny, either~
@@leonardohidalgo5127
I think my version of the joke is funny
@@iphaoftheisles3952
they're also an asshole for basically saying their opinion of my retelling of the joke as "not funny" invalidates my own enjoyment of it.
They shouldn't have replied in the first place if they don't know how to be civil.
@@leonardohidalgo5127 You've got a dogshit sense of humour, my guy. About on part with an 8 year old.
Matt: "Lol, you're a copycat."
Seth: "One of my characters rakes one of yours and then kills your main cast LMFAO."
Yeah, Seth, these jokes are nowhere near similar. One is clearly far more extreme than the other & arguably in bad taste & not even that funny. IMO, if the joke just stopped after they ran off-screen then it would have been fine, still edgy & dark, but at least it wouldn't have all of _this._
I thought it was funny
As a survivor of r@pe I am offended by UA-cam trying to even censor the word how can we as survivors even tell our stories or have a discussion if people are just going to get censored?
Why does UA-cam not understand why everything they do to make UA-cam "safe" only backfires and makes everything worse.
It’s because UA-cam doesn’t want to deal with advertisers bitching or certain things affecting their money. You can surely upload a video explaining the trauma and even use the word, you just won’t make money and UA-cam will take it. The people at UA-cam quit giving a fuck about their users.
@@TheKingHyral of course it's all about the money 💰
I've never really liked the sexual assault jokes in Family Guy. They just go on too long, and tbh all of them could be replaced with something else that's less heinous. The clip cow showed of the woman getting r-ed on the beach? Just have her getting mugged to show how useless Aquaman is.
Also, the problem with that Simpsons gag is aside from Quagmire assaulting Marge, everyone acts so widely out of character. It's lame, and embarrassing honestly. If you wanna get back at the Simpsons you don't have to go extreme assault murder mode lol
Yeah it's just uncomfortable to watch.
Like you said 99% of the time the same joke could've been accomplished without sexual assault
I think the punchline makes more sense this way. How often do you hear of someone getting victim blamed for being robbed?
@@alvedonarenoften? Never heard people talking how someone deserves to be robbed because they did dress too well in bad neighbourhood? Women usually just have different kind of assault stacked on top of that
Pretty sure Family Guy just wasn't made for you. It was complaining like this that got it cancelled over and over again back when I used to like the show. I can't believe people still watch it today since it's not funny at all anymore like it used to be, but I've been saying that about the Simpsons for 25 years now so what do I know.
Idk Lisa being that shit is on key
This joke is like if someone called me fat, I killed their dog or something as a response
Edit: This wasn't an intentional Silent Hill 2 reference I've never even played the game sorry to disappoint.
No it's more like what Cartman did to the therapist after he called Cartman Fat
@@larrychilders6599
Except the writers actually _knew_ that was disproportionate.
"Are you nuts?"
@oscarjames3777 yep but I'm saying it is just as disproportionate
"I knew it, you too! Youre just like 'em"@oscarjames3777
This is one of the rare instances where I side with the network censors. This is like two schoolkids keep pushing the envelope with jokes about each other, and the censors are the teacher trying to step in before the second kid brings the first kid's mom into the argument.
That's actually a pretty tame comparison
McFarlane comparing a r**e joke/murder joke to calling someone a plagiarist as "equal" in taking potshots at each other is insane.
Honestly? No, I would not censor it. People need to know how petty, immature, hateful and above all else, unfunny, McFarlane is.
First kids * dead * mum makes it closer to the situation
Gaaaaay
Seth getting mad over a plagiarism joke so he “raked” Marge and murdered a baby.
South Park destroys them with a full episode and Seth’s like; *”Nah, I don’t want that smoke”* lol
The Simpsons always felt like a better show to me cause while the family is dysfunctional, they don't carry the feeling of being complete psychopaths towards each other. Everyone in Family Guy is just a mostly irredeemable asshole and that is the joke.
I mean that's cause the simpsons was just a better show.
Every aspect of it was more competent and their writers actual had the talent and wit to do their job as well as they did.
Yeah like 30 years ago lol simpsons hasnt been funny since family guy has been popular @@brainthebrian3690
Not to mention people do not just get shot randomly.
The Maggie pacifier gag works if you think she shot Quagmire..otherwise it’s just shooting a baby and it’s not funny.
And suddenly we have a "Who shot Mr Burns?" joke as well
Funny because that's the only part I've heard anyone say is funny. But edgy humor isn't for everyone I guess
That's always what I believed.
They shouldve added another pacifier sound after the last shot.
@@ominousbiscuits7633 Edgy humor is good when executed properly.
Hearing Seth MacFarlane's comments from the audio commentary is so insufferable. He literally can't see the obvious problem on how terrible this "joke" is; he sounds so petty and thin-skinned.
You seem more upset (read: thin-skinned) than him
A thin-skinned person seems to have more beef than Seth responding to critics complaining about the joke.
"they made jabs about us, we're allowed to make jabs back"
The response should have been, "Yeah Seth, but none of those were R--- jokes. You and your team are not just plagiarismoes, but psychopaths too if you think that's funny. Cut the scene and get some therapy. The Simpsons won the feud, get over it."
@@QMulative I think it's less the fued and more so the joke doesn't even sounds like a jab at the Simpsons like pointing out the Simpsons ripping on the flintsones
@@QMulative This was the escalation equivalent of responding to a guy giving you a light shove by smashing his head in with a baseball bat.
I like dark humor, but they left the humor part out here and just went with dark for the sake of dark. It made Seth look petty.
He did the same with SP
Ai caramba! Mom and dad are dead!
I think the humor comes from the unexpected 0 to 100
He is petty.
@@guyferrari8124It dragged on for too long. Personally, I don’t think it’s anything to get upset by, just wasn’t funny and looks bad on Seth
The funny part about it is the fact that the thud at the very end is too loud to be a baby, and since Maggie is an excellent marksman we know she won't miss
"I found it funny, so no one is allowed to be offended or think it went too far"
- way too many comments here
Actully just some people with edgy jokes in general. These type of people are so afraid of actully think about the things they do that they'll try their hardest to ridiculize any other vision contrary to theirs and act extremally overdefensive in general for no reason.
you can find it offensive but i can also find it funny lol, two things can exist at the same time.
@fwoogg7067 true. I'm mostly talking about the guys who go "it's hilarious. if you find it offensive, there's smth wrong with you", of which there seems to be a decent amount here
It would have been funnier if after Quagmire chases Marge off screen, then Quagmire comes right back running for dear life with an angry Homer chasing him in his car. Then later in the episode they could have continued it, on one of the outside shots of Jillian's apartment, they could have had Quagmire run across the screen still being chased by Homer with Quagmire going "Oh god oh god oh god!"
The fact I can see it visually shows Seth can’t write clever gags for shit
@@athf4ever780 I was also thinking that they could have finished the gag during the credits where Homer chases Quagmire to Springfield where as revenge he sets him up on a blind date with Patty and Selma…
This is my favorite version I've seen in the comments
@@JESmiththat would be a good end to a three act gag. Shame Seth was so spiteful he couldn’t think of something clever as this.

8:08 that right there is such a toddler behavior “oh but he hit me first that’s why I stabbed him with a knife”
Honestly, I felt like they should have just ended the joke with Quagmire dragging Marge off-screen. It was kind of a funny idea, making it look like an ad being placed in the middle of the show only for it to be a skit, but it went on way too long, even for modern FG standards. Then dragging it out even further to have Quagmire kill the entire family, it's the usual 'Hm, this joke might not be funny enough. Let's add to it. That'll instantly make it funnier.'
Like why would Quagmire even do that?
Yeah, like, imagine if the waveing Marge was just a flat gif that quagmire picks up looks around suspiciously, then sneaks off screen then like later in the episode it cuts to quagmire in his bed smoking with the waveing Marge gif. Like that's way funnier in concept than just "what if Marge gets raped."
TLDR: There are better ways to do this joke.
@@joshraid1550This isn’t the first time he has done something like this.
But this wasn’t modern Family Guy, it was Season 6, plus it was deleted from the broadcast version.
Adding on to jokes that were already funny is such a huge issue with Family Guy
¿A Quagmire joke that is not funny?
Whatta surprise
You're lucky, in Latin America we had the official voice actors doing the voices in the gag, sooo yeah, the impact.

I love it how Seth MacFaralane saw the plagiarismo joke and thought to himself: “I think an appropriate response to this would be if Quagmire r*ped marge and m*rdered the entire Simpson family”
I think the joke isn't funny because
1. The topic isn't funny and is uncomfortable in the first half
2. The second half is shit like those bad edgy 2000s animations where dark thing happen in thing where it would not happen laugh, just not funny and annoying
3. It fells like seth is a baby who couldn't handle the plagiarism joke so had to get back at them in a 0 to 100 level """joke""" to """win the feud""" 2 years later
I immediately thought of those Mario bloopers where Mario finds out that the princess is in another castle
I found it funny tbh lol, no idea what is so bad about a virtual television joke that makes people uncomfy like that

The show isnt made for you.
@@kanedaku while yes I overall don't like the show it still could and does have good jokes in my opinion this is not one of them

@@hnaw1360 yeah, but everyone knows he's a chipmunk.
Come to think of it AATC? Who owns the rights?
Timmy Turner sounding
What i find so weird about Family guy is that they have very edgy rape and abuse jokes and yet they still have the audacity to have some episodes when they are like "Omg abuse is such a serious topic and we should take it seriously, shame on you viewer!" (Like that one with Quagmire's Sister, or that where Peter's Boss sexually harasses him and no one believes him since he is a guy)
Like, how Im suposed to take seriously Peter being harrased, when the whole show has at leats 10 minutes of solid rape jokes involving him? Like, if you are going to be edgy, be consistent
Wrong.
What's even funnier is that Seth tries to give some moral lessons to his audience regarding current societal subjects in his Star Trek knock-off series The Orville, and it just shows how untalented he truly is.
I mean, he has done an episode that talks about trans people, and his take on the subject is so bafflingly stupidly done that it conveys the complete opposite of what he was trying to express.
I hate this joke, but honestly, the way Bart speaks makes me giggle.

14 year old family guy fans trying to justify the laziest most dumb joke
I don’t even think Family Guy is funny. They aren’t justifying it, they’re pointing out how dumb this video is. The joke isn’t the rape, the humor comes from the unexpectedness of it. Rape is shocking. The normal Simpson ad of that time being suddenly interrupted with something shocking is the joke. I know you’re 15 and probably watched this through streaming like everything else or not at all, but you’re missing a joke and judging it while not understanding it at all, same as the video. You’re just salty it flew over your head I think
Yeah, I ain't gonna lie to you when I was about 14 or 15 seeing the little pop up and the quagmire come out of nowhere, and smear her was pretty damn funny. Never in a million years did I expect that to happen.
they're mostly in their 40s tbh
@@oldyladok then explain why quagmire shooting a baby is funny
@@nisor123 lol it's just a dumb tv show, no babies were shot and no women were assaulted in the real world during the making of this bit. People really will get outraged over anything these days.
Is it wrong that the only thing I like about this Joke is the Bart Simpson line read
No actually its probably really good that most seem to only find that part funny, this isnt the first comment to share these sentiments
Nope two if you think Maggie shot glen otherwise it’s a horrible dead baby joke
@@simsgirlgem I thought quagmire shot himself
Wrong.
@@Lou-yf1jo No.
The joke wouldn've work if Maggie shot Quagmire. Since Maggie accidently shot Burns.
(looks around) Sure...accidently...
Quagmire shooting each simpson consecutively after they each get their one liner is literally the video of Brian getting shot in a southpark fan animamation
They wrote Marge like almost like Lois Griffin, a person who would have cheated with Quagmire if the plot needed her but somehow act like she wouldn't even though she has a catalog of infidelity jokes and has cheated before.
Wrong.
Honestly Marge's characterization not being consistent is entirely to blame on her bending to the plot's punch / jokes too much, It's because her reserved personality didn't make her commitment to Homer seem that strong when. I'm sure old seasons Marge would just never, no more than maybe a hint of a doubt but easily shaken off. I'm quite sad the writters felt they could do away with the cement of their relationship and make entire episodes around that instead of using side characters since Homer had been done already...
I'm way less sensitive to this kind of overly edgy humor than most, but there is a very thick line and they lept over it like a graceful drunken gazelle and breaks its legs on the landing. It's insane to imagine of group of adults writing, storyboarding, and animating this and the only person to speak up doesn't mention how tasteless and extreme it is, the only feedback is 'we don't want anymore Simpsons jokes.'
There isn't a single layer where the bit works. It's boring and doesn't even do a good job at shocking the viewer. Every time I'm reminded this exists it blows my mind.
It's a serving of shock with a side of more shock, topped with predictable shock. These jokes can work, and this is an example of how they don't.
@@schmoferinoIt really isn't though.
That’s oddly specific
One of the most popular shows right now in mainstream media is The Boys. The show and its source material are the definition of tasteless and extreme. Nobody is thinking at all whenever slop like this is put out, only on gaining traction due to shock and, sadly, it works.
Wrong.
Seth's logic here is a bit extreme. The Simpsons put Peter and Stan on a wanted poster and made a plagiarism joke. So his response is a r*pe/murder joke.
Now i prefer Family Guy to the Simpsons, but that's a bit of an extreme response. As much as i do for the most part like Seth he doesn't take criticism or harmless jokes very well.
As others have said i think the joke would have been funnier had it just shown Quagmire chasing Marge off-screen, and cut the whole murdering the whole family thing.
It just seems like a bit of an over-reaction to such a tiny joke. Especially when you consider that South Park made a two-parter story specifically tearing Family Guy apart. Yet outside of Seth calling Matt and Trey assholes, Family Guy never made a joke on the show about South Park on the show. And i'd argue Matt and Trey's take on Family Guy was far more mean spirited than anything The Simpsons did. Like Matt and Trey don't seem to have a single kind word to say about Family Guy from what i've seen, so how the Family Guy staff have never made jabs at their expense is beyond me.
They had a jab at Matt and Trey but Seth cut it out since he thought it was weak, and it was, it had them at anal point having anal sex, this a joke they would make about themselves.
It was funny
Was it really rape if she willingly had sex with him?
Seth: why can't I make fun of them they've made fun of me
Fox: Seth their biggest jab at you was putting Peter in a wanted poster for plagiarism, you on the other hand, had one of your worst character's r*pe Marge had her enjoy it to the point she was ok with cheating, already messed up as it is and then proceed to kill the entire family INCLUDING A BABY!!!
This joke is why I stopped liking Seth McFarlane.
For me the only thing that kinda saves this joke for me is that in the Latin Spanish dub of the episode, they actually invited the ACTUAL Simpsons voice actors for the scene
It’s kinda funny only for that fact for me
The scenario of seth not understanding that it wasn't that they were making a gag on the Simpsons that caused fox to step in but him making a crazy ass rape/ family murder joke of the Simpsons, will always be funny
I am pretty sure making a joke about calling you a copycat and making a skit about assaulting the main character's wife and killing the entire family is a tad different
Wrong.

Bad jokes going for too long is Family Guy's bread and butter
@@paolo2763 to be fair this was family guy when it was still good (in my opinion)

Wrong.
@@Lou-yf1jono u bro
@@Lou-yf1jo No.
Still though, Quagmire actually stopping to consider before shooting Maggie is the only genuinely funny part-- if you have to have something like this, you want it to end with SOME humor, and it does.
Yeah I found that part hilarious
I wonder how Seth feels about this joke now that so much time has passed? You think he matured and realized how low this was even by Family Guy standards?
Wrong. This Is Not Low And Is Perfectly Mature.
Could have been way funnier and way less tasteless if Quagmire had just charmed Marge instead and then the cut-away was a joke about how many times The Simpsons uses tests of faith/looming divorce as a plot point. :P
Wrong.

@@Maw0so do I it’s way better than family guy(joke and all but I genuinely like it)
Usually when Family Guy airs in the UK, it gets trimmed down because the episodes are too long.
A joke gets removed, dialogue removes a sentence, etc.
In this case, I recall that scene being cut entirely.
I thought it was a deleted scene for a long time because I had only ever seen it in compilations.
It was cut entirely here in the US as well: this scene only aired on adult swim. Now you can only see it through dvd since adult swim lost their contract for family guy.
I remember watching that joke but at the time my mind was like "OOOOO OOO THE AD!! THE AD IT'S DOING THINGS ADS AREN'T SUPPOSED TO DO"
Wrong.
I was expecting something so much worse. This isn’t that bad
The fact that Seth thought both gags were equally personal really shows how some people simply don't just have higher tolerances for offensive content. Some people simply do not perceive how something so obviously offensive can be upsetting in the first place.
Wrong.
@@Lou-yf1joNah, get outta here. You've got no defence, whatsoever.
Maggie shot Quagmire.
Yeah, let’s just go with that. Better than the other way around

@@Lou-yf1jo No.
There is only one thing that offends the Family Guy Manatees more than comparing their work to the Simpsons.
Edit: Wow, hearing MacFarlane get butthurt over fox trying to pull the rake joke really pissed me off.
They make fun of everyone? Seemed more like complaining on a talk show when South Park came for them.
Wrong.
@@Lou-yf1jo No u
Not gonna lie, I never had that much problem with the joke, despite how edgy could have been...
But Seth Comments only make it seem like he did it because he was really, really, really salty with the Simpsons, It's explanation just sounds like the same dumb excuse he used to explain why they killed off Brian and then made him come back like 2 episodes later as a cheap way to create controversy and get more views
Wrong.
This reminds me of another terrible cut Family Guy gag about another adult cartoon, the one where they imply Trey Parker and Matt Stone are having sex. Shows like Simpsons and South Park take shots at actual flaws of Family Guy, and Family Guy's response is not only edgy bullshit but also edgy bullshit that's an ad hominen.
Seth cut it though, he said it was weak
@Bolbi145 if that was really the only response he could think of to them making fun of FG's bad writing, and he couldn't come up with anything better, it kinda proves their point.
@@timthememer2785 cutaways aren’t necessarily bad writing, some of the series’ best jokes are cutaways: The Dick Cheney hunting joke, the Timer the Cheese Guy Joke, the Caveman couple argument, etc.
I’m a little surprised Seth couldn’t see how his joke was slightly different than the ones the Simpsons had been making 😂
Wrong.
The funniest thing about this joke is if you imagine that final gunshot is Maggie shooting Quagmire
Wrong.
“How is this any different to a wanted poster of Peter saying plagiarist?”
Wrong.
I like Seth, but he was 1000% in the wrong for that joke.
and the fact that he had the nerve to try and defend it AND get mad about it in a commentary track is a little disturbing
The joke of everyone walking in the room single file to get killed is the part I admittedly laughed at. Especially with the bad impressions like Bart...
The fact Seth didn't even consider that the shit joke he wrote was just not funny shows how low his level of sense of humour is and how big his ego is. Personally, I think any topic should be joked about, but Seth McFarlane is incapable of making anything funny
that's most comedians. "You don't find my joke funny? My joke is perfect so clearly there's something wrong with the audience"
Heee a funnieeeer man than you'll eeveer bee.

Seth mcfarlane is just a dumber version of Justin Roiland's writting,innapropiate jokes that go for way too long and thinks he is the smartest person in the room for being edgy
@@LaloSalamancaGaming69 agreed, Roiland's comedy style doesn't always land, but manages to be funny most of the time for his spontaneous delivery, Family Guy is just boring to watch.
Family Guy: 'Rape Joke! 😂' South Park: 'We said the N-word 47 times in the same episode 😐'
“Mr. Marsh, the word is ‘something you can’t stand.’l
oooh, the n word. chills bro, chills…
Look! It's the N-word guy! South park makes better jokes tbh
Its just a word kid stop crying
@@0hwylz0 Um the word was actually naggers did you even watch the episode 😓🙄
It was a terrible terrible unfunny edge lord joke
Feel like the biggest problem with the joke is just that it has nothing to do with the Simpsons. There’s nothing about The Simpsons being poked fun at or called out here, they’re just burning the Simpsons in effigy.
The family could’ve been replaced with anyone else and the joke would’ve been exactly the same.
Wrong.
As a victim of r*** and dv, this "joke" was just too much way before the "part 2" and should have stopped after they went off screen
I don’t know what you’re talking about, that Maggie impression was spot on, all the other impressions were phoned in but Maggie was absolute perfection.
The first time I saw the joke I was too young to understand it. As an adult... jeez...
Kind of the same. My younger brain realized the murder part was messed up and thought that was the controversy. I thought of the first leg as a regular sex joke not a grape joke.
Wrong.
Imo the joke didn’t go “too far”, but it also just plain fell flat. It seemed like they were trying to flex how dark they could get but they didn’t add a solid or strong punchline to it
So like most family guy jokes?
Yup,thats most family guy
No punchline,just "look guys we have gore in our cartoon"
Wrong.
This is like someone putting a "Kick Me" sign on your back and you respond by putting an actual dead dog in their mailbox.
The fact that FOX tried to approach it without saying "Seth, you CAN'T joke about that" but he was too up his own ass to understand.
He's so full of himself and has the humor of a stunted high schooler.
10:44 Nuclear bomb vs Coughing baby
idk, if the simpsons jokes about family guy plagiarizing then going "lmao what if we raked and murdered the simpsons family" doesn't really feel like a sane and measured response
Its just an angry response of an overgrown toddler such as seth mcfarlane
Wrong.
@@LaloSalamancaGaming69
He is justified.
I honestly think this would've been funny if Glenn jumped Marge and then after a bit of struggling she shoots him in the leg and then runs off screen. Her liking it and then being dragged on is just so unfunny
Wrong.
Oh my God, the smug response from Seth is why I can't stand him as a show writer. "They took shots at us, so why can't we do the same? Favoritism, that's why!"
Seth, all they did was a gag that said Plagrismo, that's it. You had your character assualt a woman and then end the life of her and her family.
Seriously, bro, how is he a grown man acting like bratty teenagee?! That is such an overreaction to a quick joke and it's not the Simpsons fault that the network criticized an honestly unfunny cutaway.
Listening to him rant with the other people in the background sounded uncomfortable at him ranting and raving was the actual funny part.
This is like still having a grudge against your 5th grade bully for calling you a poopyhead long after adulthood
