I don't really find these comic strips funny, but it's humour for a different day and age, simpler and innocent. Elderly people probably love it, just as they would hate the Simpsons or (especially) the Family Guy. Or they wouldn't get Gary Larson's great comic strip, The Far Side.
Humour changes with the era, you had controversial shows like All in the Family in the 70s that dealt with race and other issues. The Reagan era ushered in arguably the most cynical comedy of all time, Married with Children, which paved the way for the Simpsons and the Family Guy. Nowadays, the current crop of comedies are very bland and plastic. Reply With Quote

Seriously, isn't the punchline in that cartoon kinda old?
As for funny cartoons, man I miss that old strip "Outland or Bloom County". Reply With Quote

I don't find Family Circus to be very funny, like a lot of other comic strips, which is why I never read it.

I find Family Circuis imposing filthy religious tones and promoting stereotypes, and therefore intellectually disgusting.

I never found that comic funny at all.
The only comics I find really funny are Far Side, and Calvin and Hobbes. Reply With Quote

I find Garfield, B.C. , Family Circus, Rex Morgan, and that stupid Great Dane Marmaduke to all be wastes of space in the daily comics :P.

From a "Family" reviewer: "We Cheer teaches coordination, enticement to lust, women being used as sex objects, and team work."
From Worthy Playing: "We Cheer is, then, for all intents and purposes, the F-Zero GX of music games. It asks for so much, yet forgives so little. It is actually so casual that it's hardcore." Reply With Quote

And I guess I'm just not intelligent enough to understand Doonsebury... or maybe it's just not funny._______________

Family Circus is rarely ever funny (like maybe once a year?). Good thing it's only one little circle in the paper and doesn't take up an entire strip :P BTW, anyone wanna explain the one ullyeus posted (it was in today's Toronto Star)? I don't get it..... :huh:
My personal favorite comics are Get Fuzzy, Zits and Sherman's Lagoon B)_______________

oh wow
i actually don't get this one. Obviously the joke revolves around the world coasters. Unless perhaps young billy/tommy/whatever the hell his name is...JEFFY that's the one, is making a poignant observation about his father's good habits?_______________

I don't get it either.
I think I liked Family Circus when I was like 7 years old, about the same time I liked Garfield and B.C. too.
I still like Peanuts though! Reply With Quote
