Comparing Family guy to bambi is ridiculous.

Do you watch family guy?

The characters on family guy don't have personalities they have traits they need to exhibit for 15-30 seconds so a joke lands...

Def reading too much into this

EDIT: Also the PTC is a censorship organization that has stifled creative development in this country for far too long. If you think something is inappropriate don't watch it, don't think it is appropriate for your kids-BE A PARENT

Your reply is what's ridiculous.

Apparently "Family Guy" is a sacred cow of yours, but it's an evil show that portrays evil things, and it's central to the show to involve children in those evil things.

Edit: PTC isn't a "censorship organization." If it wasn't for people you call "censors" we'd already have videos like the alleged Podesta "Fatherhood" video on tv.

Please type out for me some of the sexual content involving the child characters on that show that you know of, right here, right now. If it's so innocent, you shouldn't have any trouble promoting it, being proud of it, and standing behind it.

I will watch a few minutes of South Park or Family Guy here and there, clinically, to have a more informed world view of what people are exposing themselves to. One scene on South Park had the teacher ask the sex ed. class which positions they were aware of. Five were named by different kids. Two I knew, and the other three I had to look up in the Urban Dictionary. They described unspeakable acts involving two people and excrement. I have seen things just as bad on Family Guy. I'm no prude, but the producers of these shows and those that run the government agencies that have deregulated TV/obscenity laws need serious prison time by my reckoning, for exposing impressionable minds to the worst things man can imagine.

Please see my latest edit. It describes some pedophilia "jokes" on FG.

Do any of those jokes make the pedophile out to be anything but a weird creep?

Psalm100 ago

You have the answer to that. The show is sharing pedophile-themed jokes with its viewers.

JamesHowardCrow ago

Do nazi themed jokes support nazis?

Like most religious fanatics you seem to have difficulty distinguishing depicting something from endorsing it....

Psalm100 ago

The smear tactics aside, you're falsely separating depiction and endorsement. It all depends on the presentation. People get off on the fact that it's a baby saying and doing these things. That's a part of it, and that's what's the matter with it, whether someone is willing to admit that or not.

People don't "get off" they find it funny because it is a role reversal. Kinda like John Goodman in King Ralf

Like I said, what's the appeal of laughing about Michael Hutchence's death, and teaching young people especially to be callous like that? Just to be clear, since you're so intent on attacking me personally, I wasn't any sort of fan of Michael Hutchence. I liked a few INXS songs way back when, but I liked many popular songs at the time. The point is treating someone's death that way, that it's merely nothing more than a punchline.

The point is to produce 20+ episodes of a show as quickly and cheaply as possible. Having been in a very similar writers room I can tell you right now what happened.

One writer either really likes or really hates INXS and came up with a joke about it. Everyone else either thought it was passable or just really wanted to go home.
