"You think that's bad? Remember the time I was David Hasselhoff's car?" This show used to be good. The first three seasons are easily the best, and I think 7 and under aren't that bad either. But the majority of the new episodes are horrid. The first three seasons relied less on flashbacks. 4-7 relied on them too, but were at least watchable and funny. Even 4-7's flashbacks were annoying at times, it draws away from the story and is VERY VERY annoying. I don't see how Family Guy can't work as an internet web series, especially now. But why isn't it a web series? Because MacFarlane wants money.

I loved Family Guy until season 19. Don't know what happened there, different writers? Don't know but it's soooo not funny. Bring back the funny writers in every other season but 19. So unfortunate...

This show has become the latest to join the "go woke go broke" list of Disney/Disney owned flops. So sad. Seasons 1 to about 15 were mildly amusing to hilarious at times, and now it has become drivel and appears to pander to very specific demographics. It's not longer "family" guy.
