Proving once again its claim to the hotly contested title of Stupidest Television Network, ABC has canceled “The Goode Family” and “Surviving Suburbia,” continuing their business strategy of desperately trying new things and failing to give them a chance to succeed. No wonder the cab/sat USA Network actually beat ABC (and the CW network) in the national ratings last week. USA’s formula of original series with unusual but likable characters and sound values carries consistently impressive audience appeal.

For those of you who aren't yet familiar with "The Goode Family," it is an animated sitcom by Mike Judge that satirizes our obsessively politically correct, religiously "green" culture. It airs at 8:30/7:30c Friday nights on ABC. This show is worth momentarily lifting your boycott on ABC, because it is one of few that actually makes fun of liberalism instead of preaching it.

ig Hollywood’s Christian Toto kindly re-joined the motley crew and graces the airwaves of this week’s segment of Radio Free Threedonia. Christian and the RF3D gang sing the many praises of ABC’s The Goode Family, discuss the possibilities of conservative-minded moles within the ABC network and even veer off into bad date-night choices.

'The Goode Family,' a new half-hour animated comedy show which spoofs the politically-correct and environmental do-good thinking of a liberal family which considers its lifestyle superior to “abstinence people” who “wear flag pins,” debuted this past Wednesday night on ABC. The opening scene showed a “Support Our Troops...And Their Opponents” bumper sticker on the family's hybrid.

... [Mike Judge's] new animated comedy, “The Goode Family,” created with John Altschuler and Dave Krinsky (beginning on Wednesday on ABC), shoots from a different tactical angle, similarly striving to alienate no one. As if he had been required by the Federal Communications Commission to devote equal time to jeering at liberal pieties (which, by the way, he did plenty of on “King of the Hill”), he has produced the Goodes, a family of zealot, vegan, recycling nut cases who don’t fight over paper versus plastic because they believe in neither. “I know a lot of people are comfortable shopping...

Director Mike Judge’s new animated television series “The Goode Family” is a send-up of a clan of environmentalists who live by the words “What would Al Gore do?” Gerald and Helen Goode want nothing more than to minimize their carbon footprint. They feed their dog, Che, only veggies (much to the pet’s dismay) and Mr. Goode dutifully separates sheets of toilet paper when his wife accidentally buys two-ply. And, of course, the family drives a hybrid. On Wednesday at 9 p.m., “The Goode Family” will have its premiere on ABC and become the first animated series on the network’s prime-time...

People of color, sexually repressed religious fanatics, and reusable grocery bags were a few of the main subjects of tonight`s season premiere of The Goode Family, a new animated comedy made by the creator of King of the Hill and Office Space. This satirical spoof of the environmentalism craze documents a family of four who live by the slogan “WWAGD (what would Al Gore do)”. While this show made fun of typical conservative values such as abstinence, country music, and flag lapels; it also made fun of those who make fun of conservative values. Even though the show clearly has...

Beavis and Butt-head creator Mike Judge oversaw one of the most conservative-friendly shows on TV for more than a decade — Fox’s King of the Hill. Judge mocked the main characters’ penchant for guns, drinking beer, and other flyover state stereotypes, but never in a mean-spirited way. And, at the end of each episode, the resolution showed respect for family patriarch Hank Hill and his point of view. So now Judge is veering in the other direction by poking fun at a do-gooder clan named — what else? — the Goodes. The Goode Family, a new animated series debuting at...

Life's not easy if you're an organic-eating, tree-hugging, SUV-eschewing, carbon-footprintless, gender-identity-indifferent, diversity-celebrating, nonjudgmental (well, except for those damn U.S. flag pins) vegan pacifist. Just ask Gerald and Helen Goode, the First Couple of PC America. They forget to check a box when adopting an African baby, and when little Ubuntu arrives, he's a white South African. They cart home free elephant dung from Barnum & Bailey for their organic garden, then remember that the circus exploits animals. They've raised their dog Che to be a vegan, but the neighborhood sure has a lot of missing squirrels. Welcome to The Goode...

Wall Street Journal: Director Mike Judge’s new animated television series “The Goode Family” is a send-up of a clan of environmentalists who live by the words “What would Al Gore do?” Gerald and Helen Goode want nothing more than to minimize their carbon footprint. They feed their dog, Che, only veggies (much to the pet’s dismay) and Mr. Goode dutifully separates sheets of toilet paper when his wife accidentally buys two-ply.

This will frost their behinds...the holier than thou libtards will not be able to deal with being laughed at. The Goode family's motto is "What would Al Gore Do?" They wanted to adopt an African child but wound up with a white kid from South Africa. Their dog is forced to be a vegan like them, but eats all the pets in the neighborhood. It looks pretty funny. The creator is Mike Judge of Beavis and Butt-Head fame. Check out the clips on the site...the pilot will be broadcast on May 27.
