I still like the Family Guy despite their joke stealling.

 

[Akhen]

so very old, besides nothing is original anymore.

 

[cbuchach]

Isn't that somewhat the point of Family Guy--referencing other shows.

 

[Eos]

Next you're going to tell us there's trouble in the middle east.

 

[Sphexi]

Are you kidding? The first one maybe, but after that it just gets really hard to support. They took short clips out of context and call it stealing, without looking at the whole storylines. You know how many shows over the years have had plots dealing with child services? A lot.

 

[Fritzo]

About half of those jokes the Simpsons writers took from other sitcoms. Comedy has been reused for decades.

 

[cKGunslinger]

Simpsons did it!

We all know family guy's secret, and it involves THESE - http://homepage.mac.com/barthold.van.acker/realbasic/ohthehumanity.jpg

damn, i was gonna say that. haha

 

[Luthien]

Yeah, the simpsons have done it all at this point. What is left for anyone else but to repackage jokes and give them another go.

How much of the simpsons is REALLY original anyhow; probably not much.

Yup. 16 years x 20 episodes...there's not many stories they haven't written

 

[lyssword]

Family guy FTW!

 

[ForumMaster]

that's the whole point of family guy. it's like the simpsons, just more rude and with flashes of the past. (just like the time i _____ ) it happens a lot in fmaily guy.

3rd one isn't a copy, you can't say they stole from you simply because social services took your kid away...

Last one, same thing you can't say you copied on a general idea.

He was close, real close. I couldn't see him yet, but I could feel him, as if the boat were being sucked upriver and the water was flowing back into the jungle. Whatever was going to happen, it wasn't gonna be the way they call it back in Nha Trang.

 

[mercanucaribe]

The blackjack and the slot machine, yes... but it looks like it's obviously a reference to The Simpsons. If your child being taken by children services is a ripoff, a whole lot of abusive parents and crack whores are doing it worse than Family Guy. And insurance fraud? COME ON

 

[daveymark]

Also, Homer wears shoes in the simpsons. If you look closeley, (GASP) pete ALSO WEARS SHOES!!!!!! THE HORROR!!!!!! OMGWTF THEY STOLE THE SIMPSONS IDEA!!!!

 

[RelaxTheMind]

huh? weird

 

[her209]

Did anyone see the Simpson MMORPG episode? It was pretty much a copy of South Park.

All the world will be your enemy, Prince With a Thousand Enemies. And when they catch you, they will kill you. But first, they must catch you - digger, listener, runner, Prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed.

Look. Look. That's the place for us. High, lonely hills, where the wind and the sound carry, and the ground's as dry as straw in a barn. That's where we ought to be. That's where we have to get to

Information Transit got the wrong man. I got the *right* man. The wrong one was delivered to me as the right man, I accepted him on good faith as the right man. Was I wrong?

Blessed... disciples of Hippocrates. My heart is torn in two. It aches with guilt from my abominable crimes, yet it is filled with love for this... sanctuary, this place of healing, and it sings with Beethoven's immortal "Ode To Joy" where all men... become... brothers!
