The Music Thread II

[Anonymous]

Law and Order was a great show when it originally came out. I still watch it every once in a while, but I don't really like SVU.
The shows I usually watch:

The Simpsons
Aqua Teen Hunger Force
Family Guy - which they're bringing back to Fox!
SNL
24
Alias
Chapelle's Show
The Sopranos - Even though I don't like the way the portray Italians!

I used to watch Smallville but then I realized I really don't like the recycled plot-lines and shameless teenaged drama that shows on the WB usually thrive on. It was an OK show though - Lex Luthor's one of my favorite villains.

The Family Guy RULES!!! I love the Sopranos as well and as far as your statement about how they portray Italians get used to it because I'm here to tell you they act alof like that. I should know I'm mainly Italian even though I have alot of other bloodlines in my family. Can't forget Futurama, got to love Bender! :mrgreen:

My big issue with the Sopranos is that it makes it seems as though anyone who's Italian is naturally a member of the mafia. We're not all hunting people down with ice picks and baseball bats! Sure, some are, but every culture has a mob - Irish, Jewish, Russian, Japanese. The Sopranos just portrays Italians as a bunch of low-life sex hounds with no moral boundaries. However, the acting is really good, and worth watching, so I can ignore my other issues with the show.

I personally prefer mob-related TV/film that's more like the Godfather. The whole idea of honor and family pride seems more glorified in those films than in the Sopranos. But eh, that might just be my opinion, but a lot of the other Italians I know tend to agree with me.

So what you cud have summarized this as is: I like all music except classical. And by the way classical kicks ass.

24 (second best show ever)
A-Team (best show ever)
Kung Fu (just a really kickass show)
Family Guy (Funniest show ever)
Simpsons (its a classic, though sometimes they seem to run out of ideas, especially with the newer ones. I prefer the earlier seasons)
Chappelle's Show (Dave Chappelle is one of the top stand up comedians out there)

Family Guy kicks ass, i got all the seasons on dvd. And the news that they were bringing it back to fox brought tears to my eyes.

And just so everyone knows, Russian and Irish mobs are the best!

There a new episodes of Family Guy on Cartoon Network, which I'm sure most of you know. But I had no idea it was coming back to Fox. So good. Also, there is a Canadian mob. I know this because my family used to be friends with some people who's family was in the Canadian mob. I know it's funny to think about...I mean, a Canadian mob? But it's true. As for other tv shows, CSI has usually has good music in it.

My tv never leaves Cartoon Network lol,  I'm glued to it when adult swim comes on, " hey Frylock, you have a cloner?" lol and some times I'll watch animal planet.. n discovery channel..but I think I'll go back to sleep now...*yawn looks sick* good night

[Anonymous]

lol canadian mob. Eh, i'll kill you. Or maybe ill just alk funny until you leave, eh. Canada is cool.

Also, i don't beleive those FG epidsodes on Cartoon Network are new. i think they are just reruns.

[Anonymous]

They are except for the one that Fox wouldn't put on the air but Cartoon Network would. Just to let you know it was funny as hell and after seeing it I understood why they didn't air but funny nonetheless. I agree with you though Siren, the Godfather movies are awesome but in light of that subject keep in mind that they're are two different Italian mobs. The one here in America and the one in Italy. :mrgreen:

well, not that this is the tv show thread, here are my fav shows(most of which are on comedy central)

South Park-Little kids that curse. Whats better than that?
Chappelles Show-Hate him as a stand up, but his shows funny.
Reno 911-This show was so stupid and made no sense. Awesomely bad, but great.
Futurama-I love this show. I personally think this was a gem of a show, much better than family guy. Although I seem to be alone in thinking this.
Friday Night Stand Up-Stand up is awesome. This just showcases some of the best(Dane Cook, Stephen Lynch, Pablo Fransico, Gabriel Iglesias, Bruce Bruce)
Buffy the Vampire Slayer/The last season of Angel-Spike is one of my favorite TV characters of all time. And I think Sarah Michelle Gellar is hot.
Aqua Teen Hunger Force/The Brak Show-Both these adult swim shows I discovered about 3 or 4 years ago. These are gems in their own right. If only a real network would get some balls....
Anime Shows-This is deep dark secret:I love anime. Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, Rurouni Kenshin, Heatguy J, I even like the first season of Digimon. I hate the dumb ripoff anime like Inuyasha. I hate DBZ, but thats only because every other anime is so much better.



And to bring it back to topic, these are my favorite rappers:

Jay-Z
Eminem
Kanye West
Jadakkiss
Andre 3000
DMX
Xzibit
and of course....THE BEASTIE BOYS!!!!! CH-CHECK IT OUT!!!!!lol

It was when Peter was trying to find him a jewish accountant to do his taxes to get him alot of money. The whole way through it was just wrong but funny as hell nonetheless especially the song Peter sings about if he only had a jew.lol :mrgreen:

P.S. No offense to anyone.
