The references were really, really esoteric for most audiences. At least in Family Guy's defense, there's relatable cutaways among the obscure ones.

Even though some of the jokes flew over my preteen head, I still enjoyed it. I thought the upcoming movies were too stupid to actually ever become a reality, so it was funny.

Oh how wrong I was.

The shows low-key best joke was when Franklin Sherman was running for Vice President, his opponent Republican opponent was a generic looking-dude named Rich Dullwasp.

The best moment for me was him dancing with his gf and having the Beauty and the Beast ("Beauty and King Dork) fantasy while they danced. It ends and he says "Neauty and King Dork" and she's all "uh what was that?"

Love how they made a joke like "How about you guys come on my show?" and Bart goes "Nah, we're not doing that."

I usually watch the entire series at least once a year. It's one of my comfort shows. I love it so much.

Didn't realize that ABC canceled it and Fox picked it up then canceled it too. Also didn't know they made webisodes in 2000

Also, looking at the ratings is fucking nuts. It premiered to 26 million viewers. The final episode was watched by 12 million people. Absolutely insane ratings that somehow weren't good enough.

My favourite gag is when he sends him and his kid to fat camp and plays the trumpet with his belly button.

Can't find a clip, so use your imagination.

My favorite gag from Sherman of Arabia where he gets held captive and sends out a rat with a message tied to it to Duke and then he just casually dimissses it as another rat from Jay. The whole episode was great. Also he goes to Saudi Arabia and has an American taxi driver and they explain it as an exchange program

Sadly they only have it edited with other music, but they do have the original later scene.
