  • The Trial: Peter Gets a Proctologist Barred for Doing his Job!

    Ah yes, one of my favorite episodes of all time of Family Guy: the episode where Peter Griffin has to see the proctologist (butt doctor) to get his anus examined for colon cancer. Little does he know that they have to jam a finger up there to make sure that the prostrate is in working order and healthy. So, when Peter unsuspectingly removes his outer garments and poses for the doctor, he gets a one-fingered surprise of a lifetime. Throughout the remainder of the episode, Peter is suing the doctor – who was only doing his job – for molesting and raping him. Many other males in the town side with Peter, including the judge, namely because they feel embarrassed about a colonoscopy. This episode clearly demonstrates the common male mentality as it relates to colonoscopies.

  • What Happens when Peter Hits a Deer With his Car?

    Have you ever pondered why some animals can talk in the show Family Guy and that some other animals are unable to talk? I have always wondered about this, not thinking about it too much. But still…it makes for a great article to discuss the prowess of the show and the demeanor in which they choose what animals have the power of voice!

    Why is There no Family Cat?
    Did you know that average American family has approximately two and one half pets. Yes that is right. Most people actually own either two dogs, or a cat and a dog, or two cats. In many cases, two dogs and one cat. My point being here with this relatively useless statistic is that I am actually quite surprised that the show Family Guy does not have a cat…much less a talking cat to boot. I think that if they added this character it could easily become a valued and funny medium to add to the candor of the show. They changed things up recently with Bonnie giving birth and Joe’s son dying in Iraq. I think it is high time they added a cat to the mixture.

  • Stewie Gets Beat Down Hard by an Infant Little Girl

    In the newest episode of Family Guy “Stew-Roids” the diabolical baby Stewie gets what is coming to him after harassing the neighbor’s infant baby girl. When Peter watches his kid get the snot beat out of him, he decides its time to get Stewie pumped up. After getting Stewie hooked on steroids and body building, and after sexually assaulting a teenager, the show coyly drops a clip poking fun at the disgraced quarterback, Michael Vick, and also offers a taste of their version of ‘Silence of the Lambs,’ starring Chris Griffin.

    Best Three Things About the Newest Family Guy Episode “Stew-Roids”
    There are plenty of great laughs to be had from watching the newest episode of Family Guy, “Stew-Roids.” However, I believe that I can easily boil them all down to the top three with no problem. So without ado, here are three things that made this episode as cult classic as it was and is!

  • Peter Takes it Too Far with a Teenager in Newest Episode to Air

    If you caught the most recent episode of Family Guy, Season Seven’s “Stew-Roids” then I am sure there were several points during the airing of it that your jaw literally dropped; mine sure did. Now I totally appreciate this show, and rarely will you hear me knock it, but there were a few distinct points where I feel that they may have crossed the line. Albeit, I am most certain that the ratings never suffered; they never do. However, when seasoned show watchers like me go, “Wow” there is definitely some lawsuit fodder in the works…or so it may seem. Then again, Family Guy is all about crossing the line. So to clarify, I am not moaning. Just once again, I am amazed at how much a major network allows them to get away with.

  • The One, The Only: Stewie Griffin

    By Michael Jon Lazar on 4/24/09 2:01pm

    Ah yes…the one and the only Stewie Griffin: the mindful and ambiguous, evil little infant that always has some sort of plan that can allow for him to take over the world, and kill his mother. Stewie is a staple to this great show for so many reasons. First and foremost, his onscreen chemistry with Brian the dog is one of the better onscreen duos that you will ever see; even if they are only cartoon characters. His sniveling ways and his intellectual rhetoric are what makes him so likeable, in an evil and promiscuous sort of manner. However, the one great thing about this infant is that he goes in and out from being hampered by the instincts of a child to mad doctor extraordinaire.

    Three Things that Are Distinctly Stewie Griffin
    There are so many different things that this defunct toddler does that makes you love and hate him, and that makes you laugh. But there are three things that will always be distinctly Stewie Griffin. Let’s have a brief look at them…shall we?

  • Peter Tries out Tag Body Spray!

    Before I get to this clip (which is below at the bottom) I must say that there are many different flashbacks that make this show as great as it is. However, there are some that just simply take the cake. That being said, I had to search far and wide to find the clip for today. I was reminded of it after hanging out with some friends—where quite often this show gets quoted over a few beers. I know…we are total dorks. But, then again, it serves as a great way to think of more interesting posts for all of you loyal readers!

  • Newer Episode of Family Guy Continues Handicapped Bashing

    By Michael Jon Lazar on 4/22/09 5:29pm

    If you have ever missed some of the classic episodes of Family Guy where they frequently make fun of the handicapped, you can catch all of the great clips here, at Family Guy Talk! For this blog I wish to delve lightly into this reoccurring theme on the show, and see just what lines they cross and stops that they pull out. All in the name of comedy of course…right?

    The Handicapped are an Easy Target for Family Guy
    If you think about it, especially when thinking about Joe – the cop in a wheelchair from Family Guy – the handicapped are just too easy of a target for the show’s writers. They frequently will cross the line just to garner an easy laugh from their viewers. I have a few friends who are wheelchair bound, and contrary to popular belief, they actually happen to think those are some of the funniest episodes. Sometimes people find healing through comedy I guess.

  • Family Guy Dashes Everyone (Especially the Handicapped) – Joe Crying

    By Michael Jon Lazar on 4/22/09 5:16pm

    Have you ever wondered why Family Guy is so avid to make fun of the handicapped? Like for a good example, Joe: the wheelchair-bound cop, or even the greased up deaf guy – who makes a cameo in the show every once in a while? Well if you have, there are numerous good reasons for this. Basically, this type of grit comedy relies upon sheer shock value. Without making people’s lips quiver, they wouldn’t be able to get the ratings that they do on a weekly basis. Here is why.


    Three Things that Make Family Guy In-Your-Face, Offensive and Hilarious
    This show really has learned that by using offensive and brazen comedy, that is always in your face, and comedy that makes your jaw fall open in shock, they can best garner the ratings that they so desire every week. Perhaps this is one of the best reasons as to why the show has always topped the charts for most viewers, and is considered to be one of the most successful comedies since ‘FRIENDS.’

  • Funniest Clip from Season Seven’s 12th Episode: “420”

    As per the norm on this exciting Family Guy Blog, once again I do return to bring you the greatest and the latest clips from the hilarious episodes of the show’s not so distant past. Being an avid fan of the show, I watch each episode several times before writing about them in my blog. And I must say, this episode was one of the worst episodes of Family Guy that have ever watched, coyly dubbed as: 420.

    Why it Blew!
    Family Guy writers did not even try this time around. A loosely (even for this show) strung plot that both speaks for and against the legalization of marijuana…one that offers few flashbacks and minimal laughs—not to say that the episode did not have it moments, which will be shown to you in the video at the end of this blog. But all in all, it did kinda of blow for Family Guy! Maybe I am being too critical, but seriously, this episode was surefire downer.

  • Family Guy’s Classical “420” Episode Goes up in Smoke

    If you remembered to tune into to Fox for the weekly ‘Animation Domination’ Sunday, then you would have more than likely caught the newest episode of Family Guy, “420.” What will more than likely be one of the final episodes of season seven, this twelfth episode was funny, but also was kind of a letdown at the same time people! This episode offered some classic laughs, but all around seemed like a rushed episode that was merely created to capitalize on the stoner holiday that falls annually on April 20th – fondly called 420 by all stoners—hence the name of this episode.

  • Does Family Guy Steal from the Simpsons? (Everybody Does!)

    The answer to the question that is being stated above is simply put: hell yes! But then again, what show has not borrowed, or could not possible, even if accidentally, take a little bit here and there from one of the longest running shows in the history of TV? The Simpsons are not alone or without faults either. They are well known for taking bits and pieces of their own episodes from other classic TV shows and movies. Hey, it’s like images online, they are meant to be share…right?

    Ah yes, the all too in your face Quagmire: a guy who has sex with more women than Wilt Chamberlain; a dude who has outfitted his house so that he can turn it sinto a sex palace at the push of a button. The smooth talking, fast working sexual monster that typically has six or more Asian sex slaves with tracking collars on. And who would guess that this guy pilots air planes filled with families to their destinations for his day job?

    Have you ever wondered how the show Family Guy gets away with having such an outlandishly brazen molesting pervert of a character like Herbert in their show on Sundays? I recall when the Simpsons first aired on Fox; they were amuck with hate mail and Christian, rightwing conservative families that were in an uproar. Heck, the show The Simpsons even got near being canceled because the outcry was so great at first.

    What happens if you were to give Peter Griffin his own country and diplomatic immunity? Well all hell would break loose in Rhode Island that is what would happen! And this is exactly what happens for Peter when he finds out, after trying to get permits approved to build a pool in his backyard that he is not on the map at all. After meeting with the mayor of the town, Adam West (yes the real Adam West from TV’s original Batman show), Peter finds out that his home is not technically part of the city.

    When you think of the show Family Guy, what comes to mind first? Is it the dog, Brian? Is it the sexual deviance of Quagmire, the one and only sex addict? Or perhaps it’s about the old pedophile that lives down the street, always wanting to ask the muscled and young paperboy to come on inside for a cold drink on a hot summer day. Maybe you think about Meg and how she is always being berated. Or perhaps you think of Stewie, like me, and his many evil tendencies.

    There already was nearly half of a new Family Guy episode that was dedicated to making fun of the popular MTV show, “Jackass.” However, I think that the creators of the show deemed that this one episode in particular just wasn’t enough of a homage to the show’s greatness and decided that in an even more recent episode—they are both in the same, newer seventh season of Family Guy—that they should reiterate another classic jibe from the hit MTV parody!
