      When did they start adding funny moments to Family Guy?

        After season 2 or 3, they ran out of funny scenes to add, so they just kept adding stupid shit like yet another over long chicken fight or the 50th 2 min hurt knee gag.

        Because if it’s barely funny once, keep doing it until it can never be funny again.

            Part of it was (imo) a lack of good comedic timing to the point of aiming for antihumor.

            The rake gag was funny because it was usually just a 5-10 second gag in scene and they moved on. It wasn’t some non sequitur that has little to no relation to the contents of the scene.
