What started off as a pretty funny adult animated show turned into a flanderized piece of garbage by its 10th season...and its now in its 20th season. The first 4 or 5 seasons are good, but after that it is a slow and painful fall downwards for this series. Great gags in int first few seasons, but by the 10th season it starts trying to be edgy and delivers some despicable messages about spousal abuse, emotional abuse, and womanizing behavior.
(+) A very solid first 5 seasons with memorable gags (=) No real continuity besides "some" characters deaths, generally due to main voice actor passing away (=) Not the best looking animation, and many characters are stiff in presentation (-) Absolutely terrible messages in some episodes (-) Some very boring material at times, and the show starts to get monotonous and dull (-) Characters become flanderized versions of themselves very quickly, and the only semi-enjoyable one by Season 10 is Stewie (-) The show becomes a vessel for Seth Macfarlane to annoyingly brandish his political/religious beliefs nonstop
