Ask fans of the animated sitcom, boy’s family, what are the show’s hottest features, and…they’ll probably point out the silly, random jokes that quickly make up the bulk of each episode. However, one of the other key attributes of this fun cartoon has to be its colorful cast of characters. They range from caricatures of real people and stereotypes, to talking animals, to the stars of the show; Griffin family.
However, given that the show went on 2 ten years – except for a few years of hiatus – there will certainly be many characters without a sense of humour, plus many old people who have lost their luster or have fallen into disrepair. You have long-term absentees who may return and lame players who may fall out of favor.
With that said, let’s take a look back at the show’s rich history and myriad antics, as we cover 5 things we missed and 5 things that could have had their lessons.
We miss: Bertram
Considering he’s only been in a few episodes, one can’t help but feel that killing off this Stewie partner was a wasted opportunity. This is especially true as he is voiced by the talented and always funny Wallace Shawn.
It was interesting to watch the showdown of “Evil Genius Babe” between Bertram and Stewie, as well as the duo’s antics in “Brother Rivalry”, “The Big Bang Theory” and his debut in the film. classic “Impossible Launch” of this season. Debut 3. That doesn’t mean he’s going to be great primarily character, but the funny chemistry between him and Stewie is definitely more interesting than the callbacks he gets in the end.
Disqualified: John Herbert
While Herbert may have had some funny moments in the beginning boy’s familyAt this point, the frequent callbacks to the weird old man and his obsession with boys are gone – not to mention it’s downright creepy.
While some things should be considered “off-limits” when joking, his presence is boy’s familyResident pedophile is special Creepy in recent years following certain revelations.
We Miss: Francis Griffin
Well, maybe Peter’s biological father wasn’t the funniest person in the world, although the grumpy old man makes for an interesting contrast to Peter’s goofy, goofy wit.
Character absences are not necessarily ignored due to the fairly average number he himself, but how his presence helps strengthen the entire show, even if just a little. Francis helps Peter and the Griffin family become more down-to-earth and relatable. Many people may associate it with a strict, devout father who is always looking for approval, at least in Some grant.
This is in stark contrast to the cartoon character Mickey McFinnigan, who only despises dynamism, as his appearance is just a copy of Peter with an Irish beard and costume, and his overly eccentric behavior he.
Disqualified: Consuela
Of course, this recurring character named Consuela can bring joy for a while. However, given that the main “gimmick” of this butler pattern essentially involves asking for a sour oath and stubbornly responding with a lingering “no” to most people. stuff, it’s outdated.
she actually debuted for several seasons boy’s family, though she seems to have been around for quite some time considering her heavy use of basic corner-cutting jokes and recurring jokes that focus on home economics. At this point, it’s hard to see how she offers much comedic value beyond the occasional silly jokes.
We miss: death
Like the character Bertram, much of the Grim Reaper’s strength and humor comes from his talented voice actor. Originally played by Norm MacDonald in the season 2 ending “Reaper,” comedian and radio personality Adam Carolla brilliantly took over the Reaper’s reign. Both voice actors have distinct personalities with the same dry and apathetic sense of humor.
any time death is involved boy’s family, we know we’re getting a very interesting, fun premise, often with a subtle imagination about the supernatural. We’ve been missing out on this particularly memorable presence of his since his last appearance since season 12.
Disqualified: Neil Goldman
Like Season 3’s comedic “A Kiss Around the World,” this rather generic nerd comic definitely has his moments. However, he’s gotten better at this point, because he’s basically been here in the first place.
While Seth Green’s performance is memorable and enjoyable, we can’t end up with Neil, as his frequent pursuit of Meg has become a bit repetitive, as well as said obnoxious attitude. his common. After all, Meg has had to deal with all sorts of things from her own family on this show…
We Missed: Evil Monkey
On the other hand, there’s only so much you can do with an exotic animal character other than rush out of Chris’s closet and angrily point your finger in his face. However, we can’t help but miss the odd concept of a character all too often in the early days boy’s familyif only for his nostalgic affection and the fact that there are still so many unknowns about him.
Also, although the enigmatic angry ape started out as a two-way source of hilarious jokes, it finished Finally (literally) getting a voice, which turns Evil Monkey into a very different, untapped character with untapped potential. But sadly, the monkey decides to stop terrorizing Chris in his bedroom and leaves in the episode “Hannah Bananas” to move in with Tom Tucker and his son, and the rest is history.
Disqualified: Seamus
It’s hard to find much humor – or points basic – this great spoof of a 17th century pirate, even going back to season 3 for most of his early days. He largely achieved his goal, becoming the central character and plot driver in episode 3 “A Fish Out of Water.” For whatever reason, however, the producers felt it was appropriate to use the disabled man as a recurring character for most of the film’s length.
Apparently, his only unifying feature aka his “stick” is that all of his limbs are made of wooden pegs, around which most of his gimmicks are manufactured. However, the seafaring pirate isn’t particularly interesting, nor does he have a really obvious personality, which seems to change from episode to episode.
We remember: Adam West
Quahog’s eccentric mayor Adam West is just absent boy’s family It comes less than a season after the tragic death of his iconic voice actor of the same name (though we’ve seen very little of him in recent years). However, we missed this beloved character because of his naive, delusional goofiness.
When this Quahogian officer shows up, almost every episode immediately becomes more humorous. That’s thanks to West’s haunting performance, as well as the hilarious, wacky pranks the character often engages in. boy’s familyThere’s an overall sense of humor, and the show doesn’t feel the same without him.
Disqualified: Giant Chicken Earnie
Perhaps there is no clearer example of what used to be more fun FG joke Possibly more of an overkill than a giant chicken. Jokes were one thing, but this rather silly and simple joke ended long ago.
What started as a simple random joke intended to provide some amusing action and make the audience “Huh?” ends up turning into a weird callback that feels like it needs to boost the ego every time. Once the scene of Peter fighting the inexplicably mad chicken looked as chaotic and epic as it could be, he finally had to speak. This effectively destroys much of Peter’s view of his mysteriously silent partner, and unlike the villainous monkey, he’s not very funny.
