Meanwhile,
Arrested Development,
The Office,
30 Rock,
Futurama,
The Simpsons, etc. are in frequent rotation on my DVD player. That's because they're actually well-written and don't rely on cheap gags every five seconds with no relation to the plot. Sure, some of the gags were funny for the first time (emphasis on
some, because if any show defines "hit-and-miss", it's
Family Guy) but they really get tiresome and even intellectually insulting with upon further viewing.
And don't come at me with "I don't watch TV to be intellectually stimulated blah blah blahhhh" as if that's a good thing. Television has the potential to be more than a box that fries brains. But bullshit like
Family Guy insists on keeping television at its dumbest. Hooray for stupidity.
