I love the show, problem is after seeing each episode three or four times it gets old. I do not find it threatening my values if anything it sharpens them.
Thats cool if you dont like it.
Heck I cant stand these reality shows. I'm glad I got that off my chest. I feel better now. I agree. I actually think the target audience is late teens-early twenties, most of whom are capable of thinking for themselves. So whats your problem Mike? Apparently it's not ok to be an atheist? Spare us your self righteous proclamations. I don't care what others beliefs are. If one chooses to be an atheist, it's their fault that they choose to live a life without any guidance.

Oh, and for the original poster...change the channel. I doubt your absence will hurt the "Nielson Ratings" or whatever that is. Yeah, that was my goal. To come to this website and to promote people to quit watching the show.  I came here to let out my disgust of what I saw last week, and from advertisments that I saw throughout today, tonight's episode too. I bet the majority of the age group that watches this show doesn't even understand 75% of the jokes/puns on this show. I know there are A LOT of young teens watching this show. Being the majority of America are christians, let's try to spread atheism to these kids instead. I'm sure their parents would be happy.

I hearitly disagree with you Mike. Thomas Jefferson was an aethist and I can't see how he didn't have guidince. The believe of the Dao in Chinese culture has no central believe in a God but like what Jefferson said, the bases of Daoism (taoism) is Do No Evil. I see this guidience you speak of is like "In God We Trust" on our money... Acutlly almost all the founding fathers we study about had a hint of aethisim. Washington not a declared chistian nor on his death called for any clergy. Thomas Paine out right disbelieves every church. James Madison, Jefferson, Franklin, Adams all questioned the existence of God and the implications of religion on society is good or bad. To say one has no guidince because one does not believe...strikes me rather odd to what history has to tell us about the greatest men. But LONG LIVE FAMILY GUY!
By the way, as to Washington, war makes you two things, a believer in God or a disbeliever in God. I think he bcame the latter.

Dang it blue roof, Have you heard? NOOOOOO...I laughed hard at that, when it first played and peter got up and danced, I said to my wife how long is this going to go on? Bird Bird, she wasn't too thrilled about it but she laughed because I was laughing so hard. Gotta love it.

Some people don't need mumbo-jumbo for "guidance" or to tell what is and what isn't right or wrong. Why don't you listen to your god and let him do the judging.

Being the majority of America are christians, let's try to spread atheism to these kids instead. I'm sure their parents would be happy. Yeah, I suppose if the show isn't your bag, it would disgust. I don't much care for The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, Survivor, Martha Stewart, etc. I am in my low 40's and find the show hilarious because the puns/jokes relate to my time as a kid, just like most of the professed fans on here. If young teens are watching FG, they are probably just wasting their time. I really don't think that FG could be responsible for altering people's faith, unless it was weak to begin with. There are many, many real things in life, other than cartoons, that test people's faith. Sorry to jump on you about your opinions, but the channel can still be changed. Thank you Dish Network. You won't ever see me watching any of the aforementioned shows that I cannot stomach. Did I mention that I cannot stand Martha Stewart?
