I should probably mention that a good degree of my enjoyment stems from familiarity with Johnny Quest.

Who the hell doesn't love Johnny Quest?

I think it helps to watch some of the older episodes before season 3. Family Guy episodes usually don't have a story line that goes from one episode to another. Venture bros. has a single story line, so it helps to see previous episodes.

That would probably explain why I was so completely lost.

I gotta say, I kind of agree with The_FOO. When I watched Venture Bros, and mind you I did start from the first episode in the first season, I was still kind of lost, not that the plot was confusing nor the jokes, but it's chaotic somehow and all over the place. I am NOT saying that Venture Bros isn't funny, 'cause it is, but when it comes down to it, the average times I laugh out loud over Family Guy vs. the average times I laugh out loud over Venture Bros, it's like a 10:1 thing.
Which means:
Family Guy = more entertaining.
Entertainment = very good, the point of watching the shows in the first place.
Conclusion = Family Guy > Venture Bros.

This is a satire thread, right?  I mean, you are an aspiring Onion writer, right?  There's no way this could be serious.

I too, am an aspiring Onion writer.

It took a really long time for me to warm up to Family Guy. At the time I started watching it, I was obsessed with Space Ghost Coast to Coast and Aqua Teen Hunger Force, which were bumped in time due to Family Guy joining the Adult Swim line-up. I was bitter about that because SGC2C and ATHF are obviously way funnier than Family Guy and a girl with a job just can't stay up that late.

But I have to say, Family Guy totally grew on me. Stewie is my hero. I only watched a few of the early VB episodes and it was tarded. I wish Sealab 2021 and SGC2C were still on though, they were right up there with ATHF.

Cherubim is plural; Genesis 3:24 specifies one flaming sword. Presumably flaming swords were in short supply."
