Why does BRTD think South Park glorifies the smoking of tobacco?

[patrick1]

Family Guy uses celebrity jokes and the like, but only as quick cutaways usually. And there's also actually a joke there. South Park basically expects you to roll on the floor laughing because they have a crude caricature of Paris Hilton or whatever onscreen, aka exactly what Friedberg and Seltzer do.

If anything, Family Guy is a lot more like Selzter/Friedberg because it doesn't use cultural references to advance the plot in any way.  It uses them for comic relief.

And that's ok.  That works for a TV show.  It makes a horrible movie series, but TV fits it.

You think Family Guy is ready for another James Woods episode.  Which series of Star Trek's cast will Stewie kidnap next....

Who wants to be 80 anyway?

OMG ROB REINER COMPLAINS ABOUT TOBACCO WHILE HE EATS BIG MACS THAT ARE ALSO UNHEALTHY! LOLZ THAT IS SO IRONIC! HE'S A HYPOCRITE, LULZ LULZ LULZ.

And this crap has been around for 14 years now.

BRTD, doesn't like the caricaturing of someone he agrees with.....

I'm now going to watch a Family Guy episode to cleanse myself of that crap and enjoy something that's actually funny.

Thanks for the play by play.
