YO I GOT A COUCH! Visit the link below or go to allform.com/saberspark for 20% off any sofa of your choice!
Guys someone get me a couch too
To be real, Sabersparker. I actually like Fugget About It.
Aye finally doing it
a free sofa
Couch
You can't call this a clone since the family actually loves each other.
Ha
Family Guy is Toxic and the whole family in the Show has done Mess up shit together
Just give it a few seasons
Except that Petey is a male Meg.
@@garthdavis4320actually that's pretty inaccurate. Meg doesn't have any characteristics besides being a punching bag meanwhile petey has some. (besides the family doesn't actually hate him but they rather care about him at least little.)
Fugget about it actually has an interesting premise, and it could’ve been better if they decided to give it a more serious tone.
Replying so you can have a human reply. Also agreed
I think that would just clash with the humor of the show.
Well at that point it would be a goodfellas sequel
I feel like that's not at all what they'd be going for _or_ want, though. Another top comment said it well when they said they know the target audience and adjust accordingly.
It's not to say they don't care, but moreso that they're just having fun making the whole thing, and imo you can feel it a lot of the time
@@mediaultra3178 So My Blue Heaven The Animated series?
The show is actually better due to the fact the family actually CARES about each other
Like when cookie scolds Petey for making jimmy upset because he can't paid for what Petey wanted and jimmy defended Petey which is warm my heart because usually that wont really happen in family guy... They show care for each other time and time again and to be honest jimmy is actually better than peter because when him and Cheech thought of an idea which Cheech would be the one did and jimmy actually give Cheech creative... He doesn't take the credit!!!
I know saber said they are just stereotypes... They have more personality and better characters than family guy (except Meg she deserved better)
@@DawnWildFire Remember when Jimmy became an accomplished ice sculptor or when Cookie tried run her own business? Or the time when Cookie actually did a bit of LARPing? Good times...

Exactly, I laughed more at this then I did at modern family guy
I absolutely love this show
modeen family guy now it's just cutaway gag after cutaway gag
Dude same
I actually enjoyed the “Fugget About It” gag openings lol. No one claims it’s a masterpiece but I think it’s a more than enjoyable show, and it works its way into your heart pretty easily.
Also I love Uncle Cheech
It’s like complaining about the family guy intro like it isn’t a damn show intro
This boy missed the point, but honestly he just needs to Fugget about it
I never felt Fugget About It was a Family Guy clone. Like you said, I felt it was more of a spoof on Sopranos. The more episodes you see, the more characters they parody. As a fan of the Sopranos and an Italian from New Jersey, I thought it was pretty fun and the stereotypes were funny.
To be fair, my Italian friend is literally a walking stereotype. The angrier he gets the more F bombs he drops with that thick accent they all have when speaking English. Speaks English perfectly fine when calm, then gets pissed and starts talking like a mafioso. He also switches sides in video games when his side is losing. So Italian.
THE LAST QUOTE THO.
As a WW2 history buff, yeah accurate.
I love this guy! Ya should introduce him to me XD
@@PatriotAnimation If you were to be a real history buff, you wouldn't agree.
@@democraticrepublicofzibers7112 i am the history buff of history *memes.*
@@PatriotAnimation @StickNimation Studios Pfft, history memes are nothing.
They're not made by history buffs.
They're made by people who think stereotypes are true and that you should watch oversimplified. How outrageous! You gotta be at least clinically insane to do that!
Watch extra history, Historia bez Cenzury, or the Armchair Historian.
I honestly liked this "family guy clone" while it is lacking in character development it's the perfect show to watch whenever you don't have anything else to do and want to wind down. Cheap and fun entertainment which I think is why many of the episodes are streamed on TH-cam where they are easily accessible. The show knows it's target demographic and knows not to take itself too seriously because it doesn't need to.
so like family guy?
As if Family has any character development outside of turning into worse people. Chris and Meg are the only ones who actually grown.
Escapism is something people (critics mostly) forget is a great thing for those that dont want to have to think while they watch tv
@@dusktiger112 Honestly the fact that those two got out scott free is frankly a miracle
You mean it’s the perfect show to watch when you wanna die
I love Fugget About It
It’s a shame it’s not being produced anymore
It was canceled because it was (at least) a cult classic..🙄
they fugot about it
@@davestrider9900ham
Fugget about it has no correlation to family guy a cartoon family doesn’t automatically mean family guy 💀
yeah lol
I hate seeing “quirky family=family guy”
Family guys terrible know every five minutes you hear remains me of the time cutaway happens most of the time it ruins the mood fugget about it can't be compared to the flaming dog poo that's family guy@@Song_Bird.
You can’t arrest someone for speeding!
This is Canada sir, I’m arresting you for hurting my feelings
Amazing line in my opinion
It got a laugh out of me, at least out of context.
"HEY A BUST LIKE THIS WILL BE A REAL FEATHER IN HIS CAP, OOHHH"
Funny part? Sometimes hurting someone’s feelings is illegal here 🥲
@@likeaprotutorials5150 Especially in this day and age
Omg I just realized the cop is a reference to Quinton from Corner Gas!
Saber is REALLY trying to get that theme song stuck in everyone's head so we'll suffer with him lol
Joke's on him. I'm in bed with it. Lol
But the song is actually good
this is definitely one of the shows ever
Unfortunately it worked, I can't get it out of my head! 😂😂😂
He didn’t need to do that, watching the first few episodes was enough to get it stuck in my head already.
Family guy is incredible the thing separates it is that jimmy actually loves his family and has strong communication with kids and gives them great advice.
I think that Saber is forgetting the time where Peter literally watched a hen rub it’s chest against a glass and then lay an egg against it
That Mountie isn't riding a horse and wearing red because "Canada is quirky", it's because he's a Mountie. That's his uniform and they genuinely ride horses. I'm suprised Sabre totally didn't realize that by watching the show, or researching it? It's literally one of the most visible Canadian symbols since colonization.
as a Canadian this is very true
tbh, it seems like a show where if you aren't familiar with Canada, you won't enjoy it nearly as much.
That and the mountie is a horse
Sabre isn't exactly smart.
Saberfart aint exactly smart
Oh snap, I animated on this TV show, most of us hated working on it though, but it was pretty easy to work on so that was a bonus haha
You work is good and so is your channel,I mean it kept my laughing for hours,and to be honest you did good.
Final note,amazing channel and amazing animations
It explains a lot of the problems w the show
Why did you guys hate working on it? Just the art form or the director making you guys animate the stuff?
Just wanted to say that I liked your show I found it amusing.
Thank you for cutting before the nipples showed on screen.
Fugget About It is like you took the ending of Goodfellas, mixed in The Sopranos, drizzled in Family Guy, then topped it with all the Canadian, Italian, and mafia stereotypes. And it's very clever! I think it's a cool break from the usual family guy ripoffs.
Yeah Jimmy Falcone (Mcdougal) is pretty similar to Peter Griffin, but unlike Peter, Jimmy is a proper dad that wants the best for his kids, loves and stays loyal to his wife, and actually puts in effort where it counts, like getting his GED in one episode, he also protects his eldest daughter Theresa from people that would no doubt exploit her slutty nature, that was actually the reason he threw Don Gambini out the window.
And while the son Petey is kind of the family punching bag, everyone wants the best for him, they want him to toughen up to protect himself, gain confidence, and many of his family members are supportive of his actions, even if they see him as a wuss, compared to how the Griffins treat Meg, Petey isn't bullied to the point where he's suicidal like Meg.
Gina is like Stewie but she's honestly a lot more interesting because unlike Stewie, she never strayed from her chaotic nature throughout the show's run, she still has childish behavior like she's not good at drawing, she has a teddy bear, she plays hopscotch, she asks her parents about things that she needs advice on, her mom even had to give her a talk on letting something you love go free when Gina befriended a Canadian goose.
Cookie is a lot better than Lois, she may have been a stripper before marrying Jimmy but she settled down and hardly ever engages in those types of actions, she's loving and protective of her kids, and she's aware of her little girl's violent tendencies and reins her in when she can.
Cheech is kinda like Brian but actually likable, if Cheech replaced Brian in Family Guy, it'd be great.
Theresa is just a depraved teenager, but she still has a good heart when it counts, she helps her brother, gets along well with her sister, she's a bit like Elle Woods but not as smart or dedicated to something like law, but she knows how to use her social skills and looks to fix a problem
This show had a lot of potential, it deserved better
The most important fact:
They ARE a family, and not a bunch of randoms living in the same house forcing themselves to call each other "family".
This show is so great, honestly I think you should give it a second chance
Fugget about it is a gem. Never viewed it as a Family guy rip-off.
Well it's kinda is cuz the Parents look like Louis and Stan,the Boy with the Glasses idk if he was supposed to be a Steve wannabe and the Big Sister idk if She was an Haley wannabe but the Little Girl is Different so She's isn't like Stewie but I do love the show and it's better than Family Guy
@@Chalastor146 bro who was talking about american dad and Jimmy looks no were near like stand so does cookie and Teresa is way different from hailey in every way
Funny, until Saber mentioned it, i didnt even think to consider it like that xD
Wow so now every family with 3 kids and a mascot funny character relative is now a family guy ripoff. TBH it’d be more the simpsons. But the formula to this show is way different from any of those.
@@jokestermasteroflaughter7754 And Simpson got a lot of inspiration from the Flintstones. They all add something new to the old concept.
As a Canadian, I definitely remember this show and its.... _Interesting_ sense of humour
I remember it too Tomoko

Listen, Saber. As much as I love your content, I think everyone in the comments, myself included, can all agree that you pretty much screwed up this time around. Fugget About It is actually WAY better than every single season of "modern" Family Guy. Rewatch the entire show, and think about what you said the first time around.
I tried watching it. Honestly, about on par with or less than family guy to me. Jokes are kinda repetitive or drawn out, and a lot of it is gross out. Jokes were also pretty predictable, which I can at least say family guy's isnt. That's just me tho
I’m honestly surprised by how different the opinion of the comments are to sabers opinions which is why it’s good to watch more than one review
I honestly do not understand his opinions at all on this one tbh 😭 ts is hilarious, the only joke I ever disliked is the Regina in the beginning
Edit: hell the lil "Fugget about it!!" Thing they do in the beginning is adorable
The only other channel that review this is marsreviews, so is pretty limited.
hes still right, these ppl are low taste ppl who like mediacracy and apparently where born yesterday. Sber on the other hand is a critic, not a simple minded consumer
I love how everyone is disagreeing with Saber and giving the show an actual chance
Me too
It's a good show
Yeah, it’s not fair to rant about a show just because it looks like a ripoff or doesn’t have much character development. Johnny Test looked like a Dexter’s Lab ripoff, but does that mean that’s the only problem it has? No! And not every show needs to have serious moments or development all the time.
@@kaylemathewcomendador6964 EXACTLY, so far almost every “ripoff” of Family Guy that Saber Spark makes a video on isn’t actually a ripoff. They got some of the same stereotypes, but they aren’t the same.
That's what I did. I watched some reviewer trashing this show, checked it out for myself out of morbid curiosity, and ended up liking it. Watched all three seasons, in fact. I feel like every cartoon reviewer just has a hate boner for this show just cause they don't like the artstyle. I've seen worse, and this isn't one of them.
As someone who is both Italian and Canadian, this show was highly enjoyable. The jokes were on point and relatable to some degree.
My apologies, but I prefer Family Guy. Stewie stole my heart, so did Brian.
Same I fucking love this show!!!
@@alicerivierre Good job this is so different to that show then ;) .
I liked family guy, but it's hard to like almost anything about what the characters have become now.

are you walking here??????
i actually liked Fugget about it, every character had it's own charm
7:04 "And a therapist" made me choke on my drink.
Are we just not gonna mention the joke about McCool’s dong? Also, this show is actually really good if you have nothing better to do. It was an amazing binge session and I’d advise anyone else who’s bored to go ahead and watch this
I watch the whole series as it came out, back in the day lol. Its funny that I only recently found it on youtube and watched it all again. The criticisms are fair, but I still enjoyed watching it. that theme though, it haunts my nightmares sometime.
Yeah, I just noticed it too watching this video
Literally one of the only things I remember about this show is Gena doing gymnastics on the McCool statue's dong
Wjat about his dong?
Preach brother.
This show was decent and that theme song was a bop. Not every Adult Animated sitcom automatically makes it a Family Guy clone.
Sadly after watching multiple clones you start to assume that.
The fact that Saber is laughing while describing the show means Fuggit About It is doing something right. Also, I do like Paradise PD when I'm drunk. Shows don't have to be great to be fun.
FUGGIN' CRY ABOUT IT!

Idk why, but when I stumbled across this on TH-cam a few years ago, I got obsessed with it and wouldn't stop watching it... Then I found it on Amazon prime and binged it last week...
ah so it wasnt just me who was sucked into a youtube rabbit hole with this show 😭😭
YOOOOOO I did the same exact thing, it just popped up out of nowhere and I binge watched it for as much as I could
I honestly love this show. Maybe because I'm a sucker for Italian mobster films.
Dude! Same! I didn't even search for it on Prime it just popped up on my recommendations!
DUDE, ME TOO
I could rant for paragraphs about how this man dunked on this show that i have an emotional attachment to, but honestly, fugget about it.
The thing I like more about Fugget About it is that they have a backstory to pull characters from unlike family guy where they pull out the “my friends long lost cousins wife”
And they did the transgender mother trope from family guy but 20x better in one episode than family guy did in 3 seasons
They also arent a joke character like quagmire's mom Ida is, Its kinda strange that out of all the adult animation/ family guy clone shows that fugget about it is the one that actually has positive representation.
As a Canadian I love this show. Cause it feels so true. "This is canada sir, I'm arresting you for hurting my feelings" just makes me go SOOOO TRUE.
I know that was funny. Usually I despise jokes ABOUT Canada or stereotypes of Canada. But when Canadians are the ones making the jokes they tend to land better.
I think jokes about Canada would be better if Canadian culture wasn't just always defining its self by the few differences it has to America. 100 years ago we weren't racist enough, now we're too racist. Make up your mind Canada. Unless that is the joke like that one King of the hill episode where that leads to an arrogant snobishness.
Is it bad that, as an American who has never been to Canada (but at least wants to visit there someday), that joke made me laugh pretty hard?
I can certainly tell you there are a lot of oversensitive, opinionated people in the US that WISH the law could severely punish someone just for disagreeing with their opinions--but of course try to hide it by acting like the person with the opinion that makes them uncomfortable is the one being over-sensitive, because American political discussion is obnoxious and unproductive like that.
That joke genuinely made me laugh. And quite a bit too
@@JeffreyThrash isn't that anyone in 2020.
As a Simpsons fan before watching family guy, I can't stop laughing at the irony that the show once called a clone of something else went on to make its own identity and get cloned

Truth be told I Actually like FUGGET ABOUT IT more than family guy It's a nice feeling of fresh air and funny comedy that doesn't just redo the same old jokes over and over again
They were thinking if they wanted to air it or not but then they decided "fugget let's do it"
Cant disagree more Saber, i honestly enjoy this show. Its not high form art but its enjoyable when you binge it. its not bad its not great but its enjoyable.
As a Canadian... The "Regina" joke is pretty much the same as "Uranus" here among schoolchildren, so might play differently here. Thanks for the nostalgia trip. I completely forgot this show existed. It wasn't my favourite of our local content, but it was definitely made for a more Canadian audience.
It is a joke I myself have made
Yeah, Regina! The place that rhymes with fun! (pls don't sue me Marvel)

@@MGharriy bro, very clever 💀

Nah not really a rip off and more it's own thing 🤣 would love to see a season 4
"This is Canada sir, I'm arresting you for hurting my feelings"
As if Amercian cops don't arrest people who offend them.
Fugget about it is honestly family guy done right. The dad is dumb, but not to the point of being unbelievable like peter. The mom isn't as naggy as a lois or a marge and not nearly as grating to listen to. And Gina may be a murderous psychopath like stewie, but that's where the similarities end. Not to mention the can be funny without relying on obscure references or cutaways.
When the rip-off is better than the actual thing
Certainly better than mordern family guy.
11:21 This very same joke was in the loud house, a KIDS CARTOON. And it's done by the 13 year old sister Lynn Loud.
So I don't think the US has any gripes about raunchy humor in animation.
@@PilloTheStar which episode?
@@jonmcguinness534 it was the one where she didnt want to go on a rollercoaster in fear of throwing up, so she wastes time by churning butter for hours until it explodes, it's a newer one
Ok so, I'm a Canadian from Regina, and honestly, we make that joke all the time. ALL THE TIME. Our radio stations use tag lines like "the city that rhymes with fun" ok. So what you're seeing as an overplayed joke is actually a local cultural trait. I loved this show growing up, but, I will consider your opinion while rewatching it as an adult.
This is one of better and funnier shows to come along in a while. When I watch this, I don't see a Family Guy parody.
"Well, now what?"
"We order a pizza, and a therapist"
Ok that was actually kind of funny.
As someone who watched the entire show. The characters aren't as one note as you think. Sure Theresa, Petey, and Cheech are pretty basic. But even then they are pretty fun. Petey isn't even just the family punching bag. It's why he is the punching bag that makes him entertaining. He is the only one that actually has a set of morals and is self-righteous. It makes him an interesting vocal point in any episode he is the star of.
Jimmy may seem like just the fat dumb dad, but look at the reason why he sold out the rest of the mob. He did it to protect his family. He loves his family and would do anything to protect them. Despite Petey being the punchbag, there are episodes where Jimmy goes out of his way to try and connect with him or help him. Case in point: Jimmy once hired a prostitute to get Petey laid so Petey would get out of his depression. It ended up costing him a whole lot of money, but he kept doing it. Then when everything fails at the end, he has a heart-to-heart with Petey about his struggles.
Cookie is more than a struggling mom. She has plenty of moments with her kids and tries to help them with whatever trouble they are going through. And believe it or not, she is an actual mother. She gets upset at Petey for sinning, she grounds Theresa for her slutty behavior, and is doing her best with Gina's violent nature. She has rivalries and genuinely loves Jimmy instead of just being with him for the sake of the status quo. There are a few times when they get into big fights, mainly when Jimmy does something stupid that ruins something special for her. But it ends up being a testament to their love. As Jimmy manages to make it up to her with a big grand act.
Now Gina. Again, at first glance she seems like a female Stewie Griffin. And yeah, she is. But unlike Stewie, she doesn't have any baby moments. But she does have some tenderness to her. Like going out of her way to protect Cheech, even though she hates him since he is the reason they are in witness protection.
So half of the main characters are one-note, but the other characters are really well fleshed out and make the show interesting. As for the comedy of the show, that is subjective but I like it. I have always been a fan of the riskier humor.
Yea I'm not that good at English to put my love for the show into words but this was really good🥲❤
Completely this!
Tbh my GF made me watch the show and at first I thought it was totally ass, but after the slow burn of like 5 or 6 episodes I found myself laughing at it and by the time Id seen like a season and a half I kept coming back just bc I wanted to finish it, it has a soul to it were most shows of this gerne are dead inside childish husks of an excuse for media shilled out by people who are looking to ride coattails and make some money off FamilyGuys ascent, Fugget About It, while honestly a fucking dumb show is still better than the rest of the shows it was listed with on this video.

I watched this show on Teletoon when I was younger and I honestly still think it's better than modern Simpsons or Family Guy episodes even at its worst.
Which only illustrates how far they've fallen. Even back when Fugget About It originally aired about ten years ago the few times anyone mentioned it it was as "that meh Family Guy ripoff but in Canada with Italian-American stereotypes".

Saber is no different than other channels like this, he picks a show calls it annoying and a clone of sonething elese while talking behind a cartoon character. He is just 1 in a 1,000 youtube channels who do the same thing.
If you think fugget about it is a Family Guy copy?
FUGGET ABOUT IT!!
See, the 'vagina' part would be funny if they had it said one time per episode, in some quick-paced dialogue, and never call it out. Let the viewers doubletake at first, before eventually going on egg hunts for that one moment in each episode that it happens, since none of the characters react to it, so it becomes easily missed if you're not looking for it.
There was actually an episode where another mob family in witness protection program DID use that joke too, but Jimmy was quick to tell him that the joke gets old fast. they even stopped using it after a few episodes.
"Regina"
The joke sorta fits because they do that in Canada, kids like to call Regina 'Vagina'
I think this is a case where Saber's viewpoint is different from most people because he's a critic; critic opinions can sometimes differ from general audiences because they train themselves to measure things on a different scale. That doesn't make his viewpoint any more or less valid than anyone else's: he's just looking at it from the viewpoint of someone who's "seen it all".
Like, this show might be enjoyable for most people. Heck, the review even did the opposite of the intended effect for me and made me want to check it out. But it's understandable why Saber would be personally weary of the broader archetypes, because he's taken many deep dives into much worse shows that drag them deeper into the ground.
Probably one of his weaker reviews, though, I will agree with that. (Again: it had the exact opposite of the intended effect for me.)
This makes a lot of sense.
Wow!Good analysis .
critics are also pretty much obligated to pay attention, they aren't really allowed turn their brain off
I agree to an extent, but no one can deny that he has definitely lacked research in this review. He is missing large chunks of context that would not take too long at all to find that would help him understand some aspects in which he negatively spoke about.
I love this comment section. Everyone being able to speak their viewpoint for once and not argue
3:24 I can’t believe you didn’t play the full version. Literally heresy.
Ngl I actually kind of laughed at the "You can't arrest me for speeding!" "This is Canada, sir. I'm arresting you for hurting my feelings." Probably would be me as a cop tbh-
As a Canadian, I can definitely say that this show exists.

i actually enjoy fugget about it a lot, even more than family guy sometimes. It’s a lot less vile in terms of racism but some of the gore stuff is funny. The family actually loves each other and they actually care and another thing that’s interesting to me is that the characters know what each other are doing, whereas in family guy they basically don’t communicate and whenever there’s a side plot the characters in the other plots don’t seem to know what they’re doing
Fugget actually seems pretty accepting? Like sure there's racist and homophobic moments but it doesn't seem GENUINELY racist or homophobic ykwim? Idk how to explain it 😭
@@teehee781 The muslim gf one Petey had, for example. To be fair, I was really expecting a rac1st plot twist. You know how adult cartoons are. But when it ended up just being a normal character, it felt nice. No need of rac1st jokes or something, just a normal girl :))

I'm Italian Canadian and I honestly really liked the premise of this show. They actually still play it on Adult Swim all the time and ever since I started working afternoons, I've started watching episodes again. Definitely not a masterpiece, but it definitely isn't hot garbage - I'd even say it's sometimes good
Fugget about it is actually pretty good
"I'm arresting you for hurting my feelings" wow that's the most accurate cop I've ever seen in a cartoon
Actually makes me a bit salty that every cartoon reviewer that has ever talked about this show never gave it a fair chance because "oh it looks like family, therefore bad" and pair that with the fact that it's a Canadian show, it isn't given a fair chance. I thought it was an *alright* show, definitely something to just turn your brain off to since the show just feels like dumb fun.
Well see every reviewer is reviewing so when they watch it they aren't turming their brain down, not saying saber doesn't turn his brain down to watch something, like he never really reviewed mlp but watched all of it so thats likely was his wind down show. Like you can still enjoy something even though others don't like that. Reviewers will review stuff based on rhe shows merits that they think are nesassary
Canadian animation in general has been reviewed poorly through the years because of Cartoon Network rerunning Johnny Test like crazy, which wasn't even that bad if you could ignore seasons 4 through 6.
Saber did watch it all the way through though. He makes sure to watch through all of it before making his reviews.
Though I definitely understand where you are coming from. I hate it when people don’t give something a chance or attempt to watch it before making harsh judgment.
For example, the show High Guardian Spice, I had heard it was terrible, so I ended up watching the entire thing. Everyone was right, it was awful, but I wanted to be sound in my judgment lol.
I think critics are always going to be a little disconnected from the audience because they have to consume a lot of media then figure out how to dissect and talk about it. I personally think dumb fun is an art onto itself and it doesn't need a ridiculous budget or high ambitions to be entertainment
I suppose you could even argue if a show or movie or album helps you turn your brain off it moves from something to be critiqued and becomes almost a practical form of art, like ambient music haha
@@legendarybubbles4567 lol I did the same thing HSG.
I bet a part of it is the "bad looking" animation. Like there's that one show called Chicago aunt party? And I really thought it was going to be like pretty bad I think it was reviewed pretty bad but I actually liked it and found myself sad that the last episode was the last episode. I'll probably still give this a chance depending on where it's streaming.
To be honest, this show is underrated, is a really entertaining show
7:04 “We order a pizza, and a therapist” GURL 😭
Holy crap, when you mentioned King of the Hill I, again, realized what a masterpiece that series was and still is.
You know not every adult animated show about a family is a “family guy ripoff”.
agreed, i love saber but.. i think he takes the ripoff thing a lil too far sometimes
yeah, most of this video was a hard disagree from me. Saw the entire show (loved it), and felt like its own thing.
@@dman_games it was a really good show in it's own right
@@moppupaws dude, you’re missing the point. He makes money doing this so he’s gonna keep doing it. It’s called selling out. We all gotta do it some day lol
@@layceelay5382 how is calling something a "family guy clone" selling out? lol
I bet if fugget about it had furries, Saber would like it 👀
I will now consider this to be the most controversial Saber videos to date.
I don't think it's a clone, It's a loved series about an italian-new York family with actually decent writing and great fan support!
It's a brainless series that added nothing but a quick and cheap laugh and all the characters are just basic stereotypes.
@@spideyguy3315 The stereotypes are the humor, and you can have your own opinion on things but I think it's ok
I think its good but i can agree that its far from a masterpiece, i like paradise PD very much but eh, some people think the jokes arw lame, witch is fine.
Dude. I love it. I dont care what anyone says
@@spideyguy3315 there stereotypes in the Simpsons
3 or 4 years ago i physically couldn't stop watching it. I never laughed once, I just watched it with a straight face. It was mesmerising I couldn't stop.
I got through, like, 3 episodes and I had to tap out.
My brother downloaded the whole series. Love it
I can’t lie it’s a clone but it’s just so enjoyable, I literally watched one episode and then I was absolutely hooked on the show
They were actually sitting on gold. If the art style was augmented and the tone a little less slapstick, it could be exceptional.
I actually really like this show cause i instantly forget everything that happens so it never gets repetitive
you can say, you always fugget about what happened
Ah, fugget about it!
I have never disagreed with you more than I do now. And this is NOT a "Family Guy Clone".
It's like Lion King and Kimba, it's usually based on tropes that already existed and faint similarities
feel the exact same way.
I thought Fugget about it was pretty funny.
It's not worldchanging, but I think it stands on it's own

If you like this show, then I fell sorry for you...
I’d say Fugget About It isn’t a clone like other shows out there. The show may not be the best but it’s still pretty good. At the very least the animation and art style is good. Some of the jokes are pretty funny as well. Most of the family is the same as the Family Guy family with an Italian mob twist but that’s bound to happen because of them being stereotypes. Show has a good premise as well
The thing is, Not every adult animated show is a “ Family Guy clown “ or “ Rip-Off.”
I never once thought ‘Fugget About It’ as a clone or rip off. Not every single family in an adult cartoon is based 100% from family guy. Inspired ? Sure. But not a clone or a rip off.
Fugget About It, has its own taste and level of comedy that is pretty well balanced for the most part, with some misses. But no where near like Family Guy.
I've binged the entire show, honestly I kind of like it as a "I'm gonna shut my brain off and watch this Canadian family guy for a bit" kind of entertainment.
The show honestly had it moments and should’ve focused more on them adjusting to Canada while also trying to occasionally dodge his past from coming back to get him. I think there was only one episode where the mob actually gets someone to try and whack him.
Fugget about it is a fire show. Genuinely gives me more laughs than ever, and I love it. It's not a clone in my eyes, and I reckon people should give it a chance!
If you are a husband in a show and you have:
A wife,
A son and daughter,
a dog [optional]
an uncle [optional]
then you are automatically a family guy clone in real life.
Plus, I loved how they displayed the slight differences between American and Canadian cultural differences, especially around guns.🤣
Jimmy getting in trouble with a firearm every now and then was great.😂
And am I the only one who didn’t think these characters were as bland as Saberspark says? I mean yes, they are stereotypes, but their characters still had some distinction.
Gina was the best one. Seriously she is amazing
Saberspark is a bit off base by referring to Gina as "Girl Stewie". She's got a bit more to her than being the baby hell bent on world domination
McCool said in the cuba episode that Canada has no human rights abuses, then the native American guy pretty much says are you sure about that
@@killerbee1974 that was a great scene!🤣
You're not wrong. It's clear Saber Spark went on this series with the mindset that it was simply a Family Guy rip off. So he never gave the series the chance it deserved because he was too focused on linking characters into Family Guy characters and finding any error he could have with it.
I can’t believe Saberspark would talk badly about this show. This is truly a hat crime against the Italian people.
The show you mean? 😅
Imma be honest. Just binged all 3 seasons of fugget about it...really liked it. Id genuinely enjoy a 4th season.
It's way better than Family Guy. FAI has a structure that doesn't just throw random quotes and jokes evey two minutes combined with cutaways that are irrelevant to the show itself.
Imagine having your sense of humor shaped by Family Guy.
Im dead 💀
SO TRUE
Family guys humor is kinda ass
For real... It's funny how this guy mentioned himself that Family Guy is (obviously) a Simpsons ripoff but still tries to draw parallels between Fugget About It and Family Guy, instead of comparing it to Simpsons. Damn ya shallow, my man.
true
I used to love Fugget About It.
It was one of my favourite shows when it was airing, wish it didnt just stopped.
As a Canadian, I can confirm that our humour is A LOT more risqué/violent/dark than America. I’m genuinely shocked whenever I learn about what gets censored in American releases, especially for kids shows.
Kids shows here will literally have people flashing each other or making sex jokes or murdering each other and it’s AWESOME, it’s what makes the shows so enjoyable for me into adulthood and I really don’t see the issue because it goes right over kids’ heads. Total Drama, 6teen, Kid vs Kat, Wayside- I love all of these shows but they get fucking crazy at times, but the even crazier thing is seeing how American tv networks FREAK OUT over things that we see as no issue here 😂
my older sister used to watch this, and I'd watch it with her. the one thing that stuck with me was Gina, the baby, playing that game where you stab between your fingers with a real knife. and then the dad or the uncle of someone stabbed himself in the hand after she pressured him to play it.
This is like calling a cellphone a television clone. They're similar, but completely different. I love both, but yeah, it does indeed trope on Family Guy in a way.
th-cam.com/video/8LlWhdBqXBA/w-d-xo.html it’s finally here
as a canadian i can confirm we're mostly pretty chill with dirtier, riskier types of jokes. in fact i believe our television networks tend to be way more lenient with censorships than america. for example, both total drama island and 16teen have episodes edited or outright never aired in america, while all were fully aired over here with no changes.
also i do remember watching this show. i remember it being pretty fun but that might've been due to the fact i was pretty young and haven't developed much of a taste yet, or because i haven't seen any other family guy clones than this. i have fond memories but looking back i may just look at this show as a guilty pleasure. it's not great, but it's fun if you got nothing else to really watch
Canadian humour is basically British humour, especially when it’s a bigger version of Britain.
@@chrishenniker5944 *sad french canadian noises*
We have bigger censorship, you're right. Thank Al Gore's wife for helping with the censorship.
I started watching this show recently and its actually such a gem.
I can't disagree more with you. Personally I loved it, the show's pretty interesting and has a sense of humor that I love. Also gotta say some stereotypes are pretty nailed [before any knight of justice comes at me calling me a racist, I'm italian (italian italian, not new york italian), it's my god given right to talk about italian stereotypes]
Same here. I enjoyed it greatly.
Non l’ho guardato come show, perché essere associato con la Mafia ogni volta che si vuole fare rappresentazione italiana mi ha un po’ rotto le palle, è come se noi fossimo solo quello e non cercassero di sforzarsi di imparare di più sulla nostra cultura (e tra parentesi la Mafia NON È CULTURA, ma qualcosa da obliterare, non rendere divertente agli occhi di chi non ne sa niente. Ci sta la battuta satirica ma ogni volte è sempre così)
@@NovaDraconis e che ci vuoi fare, dopo più di un secolo di mafia praticamente ovunque è normale che l'italiano venga associato automaticamente con la mafia. Che poi diciamocelo eh, la mentalità del "mo' faccio così perché mi conviene di più" ce l'abbiamo tutti, non è proprio traffico di droga e omicidi, ma quello è. "Lavoro in nero così non devo pagare le tasse", "vado a buttare il divano vecchio in campagna così non devo chiamare i monnezzari", "mo' chiamo l'amico medico così salto la fila", è un po' un tratto distintivo di noi italiani quello di fare i furbi
I think they missed an opportunity with the amish episode. Coulda made her take off her makeup and shit because that definitely wouldnt be allowed (pretty sure they just couldn't be bothered to make a new face rig though) but after they coulda put in some sexy hyjinks and she could slowly realise that she's perfectly beautiful without all that crap, and change as a person when she gets back to society. Not entirely but become a more adult, down to earth human.
