Criticism to Family Guy




The Family Guy is probably the most criticized animated show in the history of American television. A lot of criticisms on the show’s episodes have reached the Fox Executives. There are also criticisms given by other American cartoonists.

Seth MacFarlane made some episodes that shows his protest against the criticisms that the show receives. An example is a scene in the “There’s something about Paulie” episode wherein Peter Griffin used a magazine as his toilet paper. Another example is a scene in Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story wherein Stewie snapped the neck of a magazine reporter.

There was a released copy of Mad Magazine (issue 458) that had a cover of the faces of the Griffin family in the body of the Simpson’s family. Some people say that the style of humor and the plot of the episodes are very similar to the very popular The Simpson’s. In The Simpson’s Halloween special episode “The Italian Bob” the artists illustrated Peter as a look-alike of Homer. The character is an Italian criminal blamed for plagiarism. The Family Guy was also imitated on the two-part episode of South Park entitled “Cartoon Wars”. In this episode, the characters demonstrated jokes unrelated and interchangeable to storylines, and the Family Guy writers are represented as manatees who only write once you push the ideal balls made of rubber listed with various topics and then put into a container.

On the fourth volume of the DVD box set commentary, Seth MacFarlane fought back all of these negative feedbacks. He says that all episodes, jokes, skits and scripts of Family Guy are original.
