# I don't get the excitement and awe.
It's too ridiculously off-base for my taste, and the satire I think is poor.

It just strikes me as a bland, mildly amusing cartoon.

# Not at all.
I wish I did understand it.

I had something of a revelation with The Simpsons, but that's because I'd never watched it. Family Guy I've tried and tried with, and just don't get the excitement.
