Family Guy is my favorite show. It's hilarious. Peter Griffin is an icon.
MacFarlane seems to be politically incorrect and he's not obsessed with Hitler, he's touching upon something that nobody dared to ever translate into comedy.
They make a lot of Jew jokes, but they are Jewish. They've made a few Muslim jokes, too, but other than bombings, there's not too much to say about them that could be funny.
They probably haven't made fun of Obama because it's Fox, but I'm sure the upcoming season will have a joke or two.
Southpark is funny. I am only on season 6, and they've done some Hitler stuff (which is funny), too, but there's something magical about Family Guy that I can't quite explain. I wish I could. My allegiance will forever lie with that show.
Sorry, he IS obsessed with Hitler. He has been shown him more than any other famous person on that show, and again, most of the time its not funny, its just showing him as a normal guy, casual guy. That joke got old a long time ago.
And Southpark creators are NOT jewish. Seth is Scottish, English and Welsh, and they are ALL HUGE supporters of Obama.
Seth was at SEVERAL Obama rallies.
The reason he shows Hitler so much is because it's funny. I think it's funny to touch upon so taboo.
If MazFarlane isn't Jewish, the majority of the the rest are Jewish eg. Borstein, Green, etc.
I don't care that he supports Obama, because half the world supports him anyways, and I'm not going to boycott a show just because the creator is just like half the world. Frankly, Family Guy has gotten me through a lot of rough times, and it always makes me laugh out loud. No other show has been able to make me do that. Sometimes I laugh so hard thinking about my favorite Family Guy clips. It's just so random and it has things that normal people never even think about. The reason it's funnier than Southpark is because South Park is realistic and it has a lot of truth. I don't watch TV to see things that are true or real, I watch it to scape and see things never though possible. Family Guy is so random and crazy that it always keeps me thinking about what they'll do next as opposed to Southpark that just makes fun of the world's problems. I like Southpark, but I like wackiness, randomness, and PETER better.
There's a difference between the 50% who voted for him (of which many now lament this now), and the .1% that truly campaigned for him. He even spoke at a couple Obama events.
THe casual Hitler reference was funny the first time, but the 100th time, its an obvious obsession. And the references are often very esoteric, often dealing with trivia that only someone who is obsessed with the subject would know.
He reminds me of Mick-jagger, who never overtly said he was a Jew hater, but has admitted to watching Leni Refenstahl's Triumph of the Will 100's of times. THere is something going on in their psyche to cause this.
