Family Guy: I Dream of Jesus (2008)
Season 7, Episode 2
2/10
Fine line between edgy and just offensive.

Warning: Spoilers
I've watched Family Guy for years and have almost always found it outrageously funny. This season, though, really isn't going well. The first episode was a simple miss, but this one is truly horrid.

The Surf'n Bird gags were actually humorous for a while, but got old real quick. The Office Space clip was worth a chuckle. The Jay Leno bit, while I saw what they were trying to do, just fell flat.

The worst part was how offensive this episode was. Granted, it is Family Guy, you are expecting a certain amount of edgy humor. This went well beyond edgy. Over the top mocking God and Jesus, an antisemitic crack, and a tasteless joke about River Phoenix were unfunny and repugnant.
