Family Guy

[princessmom29]

DEFINITELY not a show for children, but OMG is it funny! I don't find it offensive because obviously, Stewie is not being portrayed as an actual baby, or Brian as an actual dog.

 

[Deb in IA]

I completely agree that this is NOT for children.

As for "sexualizing" Stewie, well, he's not REALLY a football-headed baby, so it doesn't matter much to me.

I have a love/hate relationship with Family Guy. Some of the writing on the show is pure genius. It is definitely vulgar and pushes the lines. Guilty pleasure....you know it's wrong, but it's funny.

There are some episodes where I've done nothing but laugh the entire time and others where I've turned it off because it went to far for my personal taste.

What the deuce? I love me some Family Guy!

Me too!

 

[MusiqChic99]

I watch it regularly and still watch the reruns from time to time.

I just don't take it seriously. There have been some times when I think "wow what did they just say" but it's just a TV show.

Giggity Giggity!

(Lois walks in on Stewie torturing a bully)
Stewie: We're playing house...
Lois: But that kid is all tied up!
Stewie: Roman Polanski's house.

Stewie: Did you hear that Meg? Guys can marry other guys now. So...this is awkward, but I mean, if they can do that, that is pretty much it for you, isn't it? I mean you as well pack it in. Game over.

Ahhh, Stewie you make me laugh.

I really like Family Guy. My favorites are Stewie and Brian but don't care much for the other characters. Between the two of them, the humor is pretty sophisticated. After that, not so much.

I think my favorite episode was when Stewie was tanning and he got a mole and thought he had cancer.

Anyway, it took me a few episodes to realize that Stewie was not really a baby. FireDance was spot on with the description.

Stewie: Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Momma! Momma! Momma! Momma! Momma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Mom! Mom! Mom!

Lois: WHAT!

Stewie: ...Hi!


- My kids saw this on a commercial once and think its hillarious and to it to me all the time now.


DH and I watch it every now and then. That's how the kids also learned "What the deuce"

Hey Brian, want some Stewie jerky? *as he is peeling his skin off*

Ahhh, Stewie you make me laugh.

Thank you, those were awesome. And they also explain why some people hate the show.

Stewie: Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Momma! Momma! Momma! Momma! Momma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Mom! Mom! Mom!

I do that to my mom all the time. She doesn't watch family guy so she doesn't get it

I love the episode where Brian is in the restaurant and the kid at the table next to him is crying and Brian goes, "WAH WAH WAH! You like this? WAHHHHH!"

 

[wvjules]

Bonnie: Somebody save him, he can't swim!
Peter: Oh, he's not even kicking. Kick Joe, kick.
Lois: Peter, he's a paraplegic!
Peter: That doesn't mean he can't hear. Kick Joe, kick!

[Peter is receiving communion]
Peter Griffin: Wow, is that really the blood of Christ?
Preacher: Yes.
Peter Griffin: Wow, that guy must've been wasted 24 hours a day, huh?

[looking at whales]
Chris Griffin: Dad, what's the blowhole for?
Peter Griffin: I'll tell you what it's not for. And when I do, you'll understand why I can never go back to Sea World.

[on the phone]
Chris Griffin: So, what are you wearing?
[pause]
Chris Griffin: Wow. I bet you can see right through that.
Lois Griffin: Chris, who are you talking to?
Chris Griffin: Grandma.

Funniest. Show. On tv.

Like so many things, it isn't for everybody, and certainly not for kids. I can't imagine what parents are allowing their unsupervised kids to watch whatever at 9pm on a school night anyway (or 11pm on "Adult Swim").

The show must be doing something right...it's a rare thing for a cancelled show to be brought back from the dead.

Stewie: Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Momma! Momma! Momma! Momma! Momma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Mom! Mom! Mom!

Lois: WHAT!

My kids do it all the time, too. That and "Peanut Butter Jelly Time..."


We don't censor in our house...so if Dh and I are watching it, the kids can watch, too. If they have questions...I answer them honestly.

Stewie: Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Momma! Momma! Momma! Momma! Momma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Mom! Mom! Mom!

That's the ring tone for when my youngest calls me.

 

[avgeek81]

I love the episode when Brian goes back to college and Stewie joins him. Stewie gets that painting and is like "i call it crazy stairs" then he goes out to play Ultimate Frisbee. A frisbee flies in the window hits the painting and you hear stewie say "oh no did that hit crazy stairs"
Everytime i go on the Haunted Mansion and go thru the room with the stairs im like "oh no did that hit crazy stairs"

Stewie: Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mom! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Momma! Momma! Momma! Momma! Momma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Ma! Mom! Mom! Mom!

That is currently my ringtone for when my mom calls me. She loves it, and will call my cell just to hear her special ringtone lol.

 

[FredinFL]

I'm still creeped by the Sex and Stewie thing, I realize he's not a "baby" but it just makes me feel when they go too far with it.

 

[Angelhalo]

I am going to faint, but I agree with you.


I love the show and often laugh my head off at some of the things they say and do.

Me too.

The whole point of Family Guy is that is it distasteful and pushes boundaries. I have all the box sets of Family Guy. It's pretty much my "go to" when there is nothing on, I pop in a Family Guy DV. We quote it just about every day. Hardly a day goes by when I don't say "Touche salesman".

I go by the, if I don't like it, I don't watch it philosophy. For me persaonally, I find SouthPark extremely horrendous but Family Guy doesn't bother me at all. Go figure

 

[SookieStackhouse]

I haven't watched a lot of the show...but from what I have seen of it, it has been very funny.
