I obviously cover a lot of adult animated comedies here on my channel, and while I HAVE gotten a lot of requests for it, one that I’ve never really touched is Family Guy. And while the show does tend to have a bit of a bad reputation, and a LOT of haters, there’s one thing that cannot be denied: it is POPULAR, it apparently was the single most watched series on Hulu in 2022, and the series is now 21 seasons deep with no signs of stopping. Now when I was younger, I was a HUGE Family Guy fan, especially those first 3 seasons pre-revival. And so last year for my podcast I went back and revisited the very first season, truthfully expecting it to have aged very poorly. But honestly? Family Guy season 1 MOSTLY held up! And not only that, every episode had an intrinsically sweet quality that I think the series has moved away from over the last 20 years. So today I wanted to take a trip down memory lane and talk about why I think the first season of Family Guy is pretty freakin’ sweet.
