No more funny

There are some shows on tv these days that just ... should have died before the last season started. One of these is Family Guy and the other is The Simpsons. It's over people... finite... gonzo... no funny no more.

When they are producing jems like last nights 'Prom-night Dumpster Babies' and Peter hitting on his own daugher because he thinks he's a redneck. That's just... not funny. Since when is a baby singing and twirling his umbilical cord after stepping out of the dumpster where the teenage girl who just had him dumped him funny. Oh.. ha ha... yeah... dead babies and teenage mothers commiting infanticide, oh yeah.. ha .. ha.

Then The Simpsons.. well I can't point out a specific scene that has turned me off but the last season was uninspired, weird or nonsensical without being funny and just ... yawn. Sorry Matt, but I am a massive Simpsons fan from the old days when it was funny. Now they're coming out with a movie... wow... I can't see how you could drag this dreck any further. Last nights poor attempt at a Sound of Music rip-off was a good example of the un-funny that this show has become.

Friggin "My life with Jim" is funnier sometimes these days.

Kill your tv

You know I would... but then I'd miss wonderful shows like "The Office" and "My Name is Earl"... and the penultimate of all shows ever... "Heroes"

I HATE TV! It kills real creativity.
