alt.tv.family-guy

This newsgroup is propogating slower then a Hank Hill bowel movement. It has been created a month ago but only a few servers have picked it up. If your ISP doesn't carry it ask them politely to add it on. Also, can someone issue a booster control message? Family Guy should have its own discusion forum before the next season.

Family Guy belongs in Saturday Moring, not prime time.

Oh yeah,,guys talking about chicken "fajinas" is really saturday morning material<g>

If you ask me, Family Guy is strictly a prime-time show. Especially of all the stuff they talk about on the show. I say it's more for the 18-49 age group! But, hey everyone is entitled to their own opinions! :)

I don't think any FOX cartoon sit-com is Saturday Morning meterial.

Family Guy is way too crude for Saturday morning.

You haven't seen The Family Guy all that often, I take it. ;) Definitely NOT Saturday morning kids material.

I think this is another case of a newsgroup being created to "early" -- before a second season was officially announced. The <alt.config> people probably aren't in the mood to speed propogation as a result. It doesn't help matters that there are two "Family Guy" groups out there, splitting popular support: <alt.tv.family-guy> and <alt.tv.familyguy> (no hypen). Finally, for whatever reason, "Family Guy" hasn't drawn the same passion from internet fans that "Futurama" did.

Given "Family Guy's" hazardous time slot opposite NBC's "Frasier," I'd wait a month or two after the season starts before beginning a serious <alt.tv.family-guy> push. No point in fighting for a newsgroup if the show isn't on the air come December.

Lots of reasons, really. Besides actual show QUALITY, and what are you going to talk about in a Family Guy newsgroup? Reminisce about the past 3 episodes? Wonder if Brian is gay?

Family Guy really wouldn't attract the same viewing audience as Frasier, I don't think.

If itts anything like alt.tv.simpsons,,,we'll have,,"is stewie gay" threads in no time<g>.

I have this feeling it'll be a little like South Park - kind of cool and hip at first, but then you start getting REALLY sick of hearing about it. (Much like Jesse Ventura!) But unlike South Park, I think Family Guy will be cancelled before there's time for a backlash.

I don't know... I enjoy both... however, given the choice I would choose Frasier... I think the jokes are a little more sophisticated. But, I'll tape Family Guy cause I need some trash humor every once in awhile. (e.g. South Park)

The newsgroup alr.tv.family-guy by all rights exists and was created a

month ago _after_ renewal. It was created with _no objections_, i.e. no rmgroup, from the alt.config crowd. There is no need for a fight because the proper procedures were followed. However, I think it was created too late and should have been newgrouped quickly like alt.tv.futurama did. The problems is the initial newgroup control message did not get propogated well as it did not reach two newsservers I have access too. If someone could _please_ booster message for alt.tv.family-guy it will be appreciated.
