Ensofter Overrated and overhyped

2hotFeature one of my absolute favorites!

MonsterPerfect Good idea lost in the noise

Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

jeffreydahn Without a doubt one of the high points of my viewing schedule for 2009! Seth MacFarlane is a comic genius in the tradition of Mel Brooks, Sid Caesar, and Steve Allen. I don't understand the negative reviews, as I would think that those that watched it would be prepared for the typical edgy style of comedy seen on Family Guy. Marlee Matlin about made me fall out of my chair, particularly with her exit. I only wish I had recorded it so I could enjoy re-watching it, as I feel that this is one show we'll never see in re-runs! Darn it. Maybe next year , Seth and Alex can do a Christmas Special, or a Hanukkah show. I could think of some particularly funny bits for either of those possibilities.

Michelle Kay Family Guy used to be a really funny show. Now it is getting less funny, but what is way worse is that The Cleveland Show just stinks and then this travesty gets put on the air? Seth McFarlane came across as a total d-bag on the show and it obviously was not just an act, the guy seems like a huge real life jerk. The Alex lady seemed really nice and had a couple bits that showed off some good talent (her stand up joke and the Zellweger impression were okay) but over all this show was less funny than pretty much anything I've ever seen on Fox. It was just terrible! Right up (or down) there with that Star Wars Holiday Special, infamously bad TV.

jecook7 What did I just watch? I'm having trouble digesting what I witnessed and how it made it on the air... it was just... terrible! It's almost like how Family Guy would caricature a bad sitcom.What were they thinking? Why has FOX bent over for any and everything Seth wants to put on the air? The Cleveland show is nearly DOA, Family Guy has almost no effort put into it anymore, and now this travesty. American Dad is the only halfway decent show.Oh great... now he's singing again. Rehashing all the songs that he's put into Family Guy. This show seems like a huge ego trip for Seth to show off his voice.

wille66 I'm a huge fan of Family Guy, and I enjoy the edgy humor and parodies. It doesn't feel so funny when a live action program tries to do the same thing. Chuckling about the Holocaust and imitating how deaf people sound when they talk isn't funny and kinda makes my skin crawl. Amazingly unfunny for someone as funny as Seth McFarlane. It's like he was trying to rack up as many insulted groups as he could in 30 minutes. What was he thinking when he put together this show? If his point was to make it a 30 minute uncomfortable Family Guy style skit, he pulled it off. Another feather in the cap of Fox, was the network so desperate for a program in this time slot that it needed to put this slapped together train wreck on air?
