vovatWell, let's see. No new Simpsons tonight, but the American Dad episode was all right. Not one of the best, but it worked pretty well. The first Family Guy was kind of weak, and if the woman Brian was dating was supposed to be fifty, I don't think they got their math right. Alaska and Hawaii both became states in 1959, so she would have had to have been REALLY young when the picture with less stars was taken. Then again, maybe they did that just to mess with us nerds. {g} The other new FG, with the evil monkey and Miley Cyrus, was a better one, although it kind of ran out of steam. The ending was coherent, but not all that funny. Well, maybe I just thought the King Kong reversal had been done better in Terry Pratchett's Moving Pictures. I don't know. I just think it kind of ran out of steam after introducing the gag about Miley being a robot. It was pretty cool to finally see an actual story involving the evil monkey after all the years of his being in the background, though. I actually thought the partially live-action variety-type show with Seth MacFarlane and Alex Borstein was a good idea, but not really implemented that well. Some of the simple gags ran way too long, but I guess that's not atypical for MacFarlane. As for The Cleveland Show, it continues to be hit-or-miss, with more misses than hits. I liked Cleveland's rap and the satire on the hypocrisy of purity pledges, but most of it was just kind of...there.
