You got kidnapped by something that goes on a salad - DMiller - 10th September 2008
That was great. Was that shown at the end of an episode of Family Guy or something?

Sort of, if you CHECK THE CREDITS, you'll see it was MADE by the creator of family guy. Specifically, he made it for Youtube and uploaded it to his own account.
So yeah, the creator of Family Guy has a youtube account...
Anywhoo, I thought it was funny but the last gag was a little tacked on.
Nerd: Besides Bowser has a crush on the princess! He wouldn't eat her!
Also, this is why Robot Chicken sucks. If this was done by that guy, he'd be saying "ah princesss what's up in the hiyaaouse" and there'd be no fun with realistic style conversations in ridiculous situations at all.

As usual for the guy behind Family Guy... so numbingly stupid that you might laugh, but only by accident because it's not funny.

Stupid? It was clever commentary on how real life people argue. It's only stupid because people in real life are, by and large, idiots.

Ugh, I just can't stand Family Guy... such an awful show. It's just so unnecessarily mean and nasty...
Sometimes things go like that in real life (the argument part, that is), but certainly not always. But everything he (Seth McFarlane) does is full of that stuff... awful "humor", insults, idiotic arguments, saying that most people are so moronically stupid that it's amazing that they manage to function at all (sure I'm a pessimist, but I don't believe THAT!)... awful show, and that has exactly the same tone.
(I could also say "and, of course, Bowser obviously wouldn't eat the Princess, but that'd actually be taking the events of the video seriously, which they were not meant to be.)

Your mistake is thinking that because he JOKES about people being aweful, he actually thinks they are.
It's comedy. It means nothing psychological.
Aqua Teen Hunger Force is far worse in that sense.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force is actually funny, though... same for Robot Chicken (it's just so over-the-top... I wouldn't want to watch a whole lot of it all at once, though.). Family Guy just isn't.

Well we have different tastes I guess.
I can't stand Robot Chicken myself. *shudders*
