2. It seems to be more popular than ever, though.
The latest episodes are really pushing the envelope.

on edit: eh maybe just not my kinda thing. I love the Simpsons and South Park, but the scene from the mexican planned parenthood clinic just kinda pushed the boundary of funny for me.

6. Oh, man, I just about blew my gut out laughing last night!
The Mary Poppins scene had me gasping for breath!

Pure brilliance.

8. Because I don't know the context, I found that comment creepy.
Whose bed? Bodies of whom?

The Star Wars spoof ($25 on DVD next week) was admittedly funny, but the episode they'd shown the week after was atrocious.

Peter gets a job as a nanny and winds up crushing them in a forced umbrella landing.
