Peter Griffin

Peter Griffin: The Not So Typical Family Guy Pedophilia, mental disabilities, and terrorism are not usually the first thoughts that come to mind when a person contemplate comedy. Despite this fact, they are all subjects I have witnessed the well-known television show Family Guy poke fun at. This show represents a father, Peter Griffin, and his family and all of the ridiculous circumstances they put themselves in. While the majority of people do not find these subjects funny, they still find the show hilarious and support the show wholeheartedly. While I am not saying that everyone supports the vastly inappropriate jokes made on the show, a large portion of society loves it. Antonia Peacocke, author of “Family Guy and Freud: Jokes and their…

The family includes Peter, Lois, Chris, Meg, Stewie, and Brian. Peter is the dad, head of the household, he's a bit on the slow side, loves beer, and is in love with TV.

In a two part series named The Cartoon Wars, the writers of South Park go after the question of freedom of speech and censorship on television. In Part 1, there is a national concern that a Family Guy episode featuring an image of Mohammed should not be broadcast. Family Guy is another animated TV show that the writers are trying to poke fun at. In the episode, Family Guy is aired on Fox Network and in Part 1 of the series, the network censors the image of Mohammed. “Family Guy is known to be an…

people make fun of others not which is very sad. They praise to the suffering and pain of others as well as in Family Guy. In this show, they make fun of religion and Jesus has been portrayed as a con man such as when he pretended to be a virgin to sleep with Lois or as a cocaine addict of how he really died, according to Stewie. This doesn’t know any respect to the people who are believers of God and of course it is going to transmit hatred among them. Herbert “the pervert” is such a…

It is extremely unsettling that a cartoon teaches the younger generations, as well as adults, crude humor in which belittles another person mainly based off appearance. For example, the daughter Meg is continuously being criticized of her weight and looks. She is constantly being told she is overweight and unattractive. No person should be belittled based on outward appearance. To allow children to engage in a show that demonstrates such behavior is unacceptable. As a parent, I refuse to…

show’s jokes personally. Peacocke says, “Many still denounce Family Guy as bigoted and crude” (300). This is reasonable because many people may be offended by the show’s sickening jokes. For example, in the twenty second episode of the tenth season, Family Guy Viewer Mail #2, Peter tries to kills himself, but instead his gun turns into Robin Williams. This was both controversial and offensive because people had just learned of Robin’s death by apparent suicide. In fact, in the United Kingdom,…

Lois, the mother of the family, is a stereotypical housewife with a wild side. Peter and Lois have three children named Meg, Chris, and Stewie.
