Our Take

White Woman’s Instagram By Bo Burnham was the first time I’ve ever heard someone check the pulse of the underlying issue with most of the injustices of the world…white women. They usually can be found co-opting on pretty much every social and pop culture issue, white women have successfully made themselves look the least attractive out of all of the women of the world just by commenting on anything.

Family Guy goes a step further than Bo and really uses a fine magnifying glass on this whilst focusing on the rabid Starbucks culture of America that has been in play for a while now. In fact, together with a bit on Bill Gates and green tea getting the business, you could say all of Seattle Washington is probably pissed off this morning at the newest episode of Family Guy. For my money I’m loving the fact that in two weeks of new Family Guy episodes we got three cutaways drug sequences all of which have been excellent.

The other thing I’m liking about Family Guy this season, fewer meaningless B-plots. For my money, I’ll take a well thought out 21-minute hilarious plot rather than a side piece trying it’s best to fit in a bag that doesn’t want it. Moreover, Family Guy’s new season is off to a hilarious start and this week’s episode was really one of the funnier ones I’ve seen in a while, let’s keep the good times coming
