South Park fans think the Family Guy parody is so right it's scary

Fans think the two-part "South Park" event "Cartoon Wars" in Season 10 that parodied "Family Guy" was freakishly on point. A video with highlights from the entry had fans stating their approval of the imitation, and some users indicated that it was eerily accurate. YouTube user Heisenberg wrote, "The way they portray family guy is terrifyingly accurate" Another user, Flitch, agreed, writing, "Family Guy's made fun of many adult cartoons, and South Park ripped on their biggest flaw. Good on them." Just Some Robots acknowledged the accuracy of "South Park," saying, "The funniest part is all of the family guy fans getting offended by a completely accurate description of the show."

The spoof hasn't just caused a stir with fans as it also brought on some controversy among the show's creators. In an interview (via Comedies 'R' Go on YouTube), Trey Parker and Matt Stone revealed they aren't fans of "Family Guy." Parker specifically stated, "We just don't respect it in terms of writing." Meanwhile, "Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane didn't like the jab taken at his writing staff but acknowledged the parody was funny. Speaking to Howard Stern, MacFarlane said, "You know the two-parter they did on us was very funny." While he didn't enjoy their opinions, MacFarlane did get a kick out of their well-crafted spoof.

All told, it seems pretty clear that the creators of "South Park" and certain fans don't like "Family Guy," but they did enjoy the creepily precise portrayal witnessed in the parody.
