Family Guy (1999– )
1/10
An awful show that should have remained cancelled
29 June 2011
Honestly, up until its 2002 cancellation I would have deemed this as a decent show that definitely had a good run, albeit a short one... Yet, whenever I may happen upon an airing of this show after its return, I can't help but feel disgusted at the pathetically large effort MacFarlane's show puts in to get laughs out this mind-numbing dreck.

It is in no way as clever as it used to be, and no longer retains any of the originality it used to have, and to be honest, every time I see it now it reminds me of the classic "SIMPSON'S DID IT" episode of South Park (which is an actually decent show that is both intellectually stimulating and controversial - a good combination).

Anyways, I'd rather not list off the many flaws within the characters and the writing in general, since that would take all night... but I will say that Seth MacFarlane needs to quit before he ruins the minds of society altogether

The best talk show on TV
20 February 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Craig's show is the best late night talk show that there is, and nothing need be said to support my claim If at any time in your life you need something, anything to cheer you up, this quirky little show is probably enough to save your life... not that I was in any situation like that to test that theory, but I believe it's just that good.

Mouth Organ?

Or Awkward Pause? (hardly a decision is it?.. you cheeky monkeys)

oh and p.s. his lighting isn't as bad as he says... but it's not great either... + Geoff Peterson (The sex robot) makes up for any issues due to low budget

Comedy Inc. (2002–2007)
10/10
Not great but in my opinion it's the best CBC has to offer lately
20 February 2011
CBC has definitely gone down in quality lately, with shows that used to be good (i.e. This Hour Has 22 Minutes, Rick Mercer Report) no longer being worth the small effort required to change the channel and watch them. Comedy inc, although not great, is one of the only CBC shows apart from reruns of Kids in the Hall or SCTV that I find worth watching, since even in a pile of sub-par skits, there is the occasional gem that would give long time shows like SNL a run for their money (and even it isn't innocent in the area of getting worse over the years).

Now, I won't lie, I hate Roman Danylo, but the rest of the cast does do a relatively decent job playing the parts required for this low budget show... you should check out the crappy commercials some of the cast has wound up doing. The humour of this show isn't for everyone, but for people who can understand or find the crudeness enjoyable, it's definitely worth watching over some of the other crap on TV these days In the end though, this show deserves better than a 2.3 rating, and my 10/10 is just to try to give it something more accurate... In all honesty i'd give it a 6 or a 7.
