horrible show should not be on air
bad show that nobodyshould really watch. it's a bad show. lots of alcohol & drugs. Strong language. Strong sexual content that even adults shouldn't be exposed to. Lots of offensive language that's offensive against races & religions. Too violent. It's studpid because like every season they have this dumb clip where peter fights a chicken and it takes like 10 minutes out of the show. No good role models and very bad messages.

Hilarious!!!
Besides the racism jokes and all that stuff they make fun of hannah montana, marlee matlin, alien, the muppets, jaws, adam sandler. yeah they make fun of everthing but some of the skits are funny and clean but have just some crude humor! It kind of depends what episode your watching to determine if you can't watch the show because some of the episodes hav crude humor and mild language which are mostly theold ones (Seasons 1 and 2)

Disturbing....
I hate to say it, but it is intertaning, but I still want to go into the studio and bash the creaters heads in. They were picking on the holocaust! Making it seem like a huge joke. And it is really discusting and a complete waste of one's time. Sex is definetly one of the main topics, it makes me gag. Bad enough at school... Well, do NOT let your kids see this. Just dont if you care at all for your child.

the word f--k is bleeped.
the words are "sh-t" and "d--n". It is ifffy for 12-17, mom doesn't like me watching this show. this is rated TV PG or TV 14 or TV MA and you have to be 17 to watch this in my house. any house except for mine does not have parental controls. We are just gonna wait until we are 17 years of age.

Funny but not appropriate
It's a very funny show, but it's very innapropriate. Also, the dog Brian smokes and drinks a lot. The dad Peter also drinks a lot. There's a lot more swearing than most shows too. It doesn't have very good role models either. If this was your family that would suck. But it's a great show for about 11 and up.

The dumbest show on Earth.
Uses of b***h, a**, h*e, middle fingers, h**l, f**k, d**n, d****t, g*****n, references to Judaisum, violence, drinking, smoking, messages that are stupid, d****e, p***s, p**s, n****r, s**ks, b**ls and s**t are used frankly. Do not watch Family Guy. It's the dumbest, stupid, hyper-sweary, innuidio-ish show ever.

THE BEST SHOW EVA!!!!!!!!!
this is my favorite show on television I'm watching this show as i write the review. Although it is hilarious it is also very inappropriate! but i think mature 12 year olds should be able to watch it!

Family Guy
All the kids in my homeroom watch this show, and I didn't know much about it until I looked it up in a website about the plot and characters. Mr. Griffin is a drunkard and Mrs. Griffin always gets into fights with him. Megan is unloved, and you'd think she'd stand up to her family and schoolmates who treat her unkindly, but instead, she is misguided into thinking that intercourse makes people popular. Chris isn't the worst, but he says things like "whip your A-word". Baby Stewie drops lots of F-bombs and kills people. I myself have never watched this show, and the website I researched it on (I'm a science kid; I research everything!) referred to things that were in the show that were bad. I'm a fan of the Cosby Show, and every time a kid at my middle school mentions Family Guy, I wonder why it can't be like the happy, loyal, yet humorous Huxtable family in the Cosby Show. Why does every "funny" show have sexual references, racism, prejudice, and things like that? I simply request that you never watch this show. Watch good sitcoms instead.

Not For Kids and Tweens
What a horrible cartoon. I like this show,because i'm hypnotize by this horrible cartoon.They hypnotize me by a funny slapstick comedy (i think),but still,this tv show is bad,i would support this show if they have big positive messages (like Wall-E).

LOL Show, but not for young kids.
Despite the concerns I have given above, this show is iffy for ages 12 and 13, but fine for 14. My concerns are conversed following this sentence. LAGUAGE: Assuming you watch the show on TV (FOX, TBS, Local Channels), the most taboo words are bleeped out. Only d***, a**, h***, bi***, ba*****, are used. SEXUAL PRESENCE: Mild sexual innuendo, sometimes using a fully naked Peter, used in a comical way, with his fat covering his genitals. Other than that, there is two episodes that involve nudists, but it shows no nudity. Once again, in some episodes, the female genitals are shown, as well as the male genitals, but are once again bleeped out. VIOLENCE: Violence is present in about 3/4 of all episodes, once again used in a comical way, most times. About 1/4 of all violence is meant in a non-comical way. Alcohol is present in near every episode. DRUG USAGE: There is usage of cigarettes and marijuana (marijuana in very few episodes, as with cigarettes). MESSAGE: Very few positive messages. Sometimes doing good deeds is the message, while other times the message is that marijuana is okay (the worst message). ROLE MODELS??: Family Guy is not a good role model for young children, but children over 12 should be responsible enough to not use these actions, and 14, the child/children are definitely old enough and responsible enough to handle it. Every episode, except one or two, is rated TV-14, which I think is a wise choice, rather than TV-MA, which would drive away a lot of viewers and give parents a bad idea about the show. I am a VERY responsible child, so I was allowed to watch this at 10, way back in 2006. This is one of my favorite shows and I watch it daily, albeit on DVD and TV. Up to the Volume 3 DVD set(NOT SEASON 3) every thing that was bleeped out remains bleeped out. Volume 4 and up, it's uncensored, so keep that in mind if you buy a box set for an age 12 or 13 child. Thanks, GHlegend777 P.S. Marijuana is in the Volume 7 DVD box set.

You can't shield your kids from the world. Get over it, or don't be a parent.
