....want to continue the series??? Seth MacFarlane wrapped up A lot of storylines and now it appears, Family Guy is just trying to gross out just to gross out. For instance Quagmire's penis enlargement pills and if you saw the episode you know what it did to his "date." What do you think?

The show's been this way ever since coming back.

Of course I do and he's not doing this because he doesn't want to continue the show he's pushing the envelope because he knows that as long as he makes money for FOX he practically has carte blanche to do what he wants so instead of coming up with smart ant witty scripts he resorts to the lazy style of filling the show with gross out toilette humor and random pop culture references to get cheap ratings.

Interesting, Seth MacFarlane does have what it takes to make a smart funny cartoon. He has shown that in the past. I am really eager to see the episode "Road to The Pilot" in which Brian & Stewie travel back to the show's original pilot episode.
