Interesting you say that. I watched the 1st few Simpsons back when they began on Tracy Ullman's show. I could never get into them, and I think it's mainly because they were so ugly to look at (and their voices so unattractive too), that it distracted from what they were saying. I also usually don't care for stupid characters or bratty characters as the "heroes" of a piece.

Now, I LOVE the Family Guy! Granted, the father & the son are ugly pinheads, but evil-genius baby Stewie and Brian the cocktail-swilling dog are just too, too funny. Plus the guy who created it, Seth McFarland, loads it with references way beyond his young years.

I know what you mean about the early Simpsons, I watched them too. But they've cleaned up real nice since, and even though the hero is a bratty boy, or a lazy nuclear technition, it's all part of the charm.

And I think if you watch it closely you'll find that most of the "lessons" learned on that show are pretty wholesome. I highly suggest it.

Oh yea, and the Family Guy is a riot! The baby absolutely makes that show.

"You've been impeding my process since I escaped from you wretched womb!"

Funny stuff!
