We all know that Seth McFarlane's Family Guy features offensive content. Most people don't pay much attention to the age rating in the corner of the television screen unless they are parents. As children grow up, there are always some programs that parents don't allow them to watch. However, once they begin to develop mature minds, they begin to understand the reason for the restriction in watching shows. Children tend to watch the show even though it is restricted to viewers over the age of fourteen. I agree that Family Guy has a lot of offensive content such as bad behavior and language and can greatly influence children to react to what they are seeing and copy their actions or things they say on television because they don't really know what is right and what is wrong. But we should also take into consideration why the show Family Guy shows content that might be offensive to even many viewers, but it is better still to see it from a broader perspective. Children may simply see through crude humor, misinterpreting it. it's simply another one of the cartoons they're already used to watching, when in reality children are introduced to adult humor at an early age by shows like Family Guy. There's a time and place for everything, and adult humor and that Family Guy should come in the middle or even late teens. Antonia Peacocke, author of the article "Family Guy and Freud: Pranks and Their Relationship to the Unconscious," makes it clear in her writings that Family Guy is a show focused on toilet humor but that, again, is very fascinating for his unique humor behind It. I firmly believe that it is not a show to be taken seriously, it is carried forward by its unique humor and that in the middle of the paper there are other people in other countries suffering from hunger. The fact that there is offensive content in this episode baffles me: is this how rich people in higher societies view other parts of the world that are beneath them as "hilarious?" This also demonstrates Peacock's idea that Family Guy reveals aspects of American culture. There is much more than meets the eye. There are hidden messages in the show that require a little more critical thinking to understand what comes across in the joke. Family Guy should not be confused as extremely offensive because it is intentionally televised for our entertainment, it does not differentiate specific individuals but society as a whole, which makes it the same for everyone to watch and enjoy, and that they display intellectualism in a crude manner.
