mLine 17:
Line 17: − + − − Several commenter have also noted the extremely violent and disturbing themes. One such theme is the constant abuse of the daughter Meg who is regarded with contempt by almost everybody on the show. The father Peter is the most prominent abuser and has done several bad things to her, the worst possibly being shooting her for no reason other than her walking by. Characters are in almost every episode exposed to graphic injuries and one episode involves a filthy, dangerous kindergarten run by a seemingly liberal woman.

''The Simpsons'' and ''South Park'' have openly mocked ''Family Guy'' for its lack of creativity and frequent derivative sequences. One episode of ''South Park'' portrayed ''Family Guy'' as being written by manatees who would randomly select balls inscribed with a noun, verb and pop culture reference, thus creating all the jokes for the show.

The show has also been criticized for having declined in quality since its "uncancellation" for reasons including its constant recycling of jokes, its departure from the more smart, dialogue based humour of the first three seasons in favour of shock and gross-out humour and drastic changes in the characters, for example, Brian was originally portrayed as the voice of reason in the family with a dry sense of humour eventually became an alcoholic, preachy, atheist (despite previously proclaiming belief in God in earlier episodes), marijuana smoking hypocrite who served the sole purpose of being a loud speaker for Seth MacFarlane's political views. Another incident happened when Jesus appeared on the show and blatantly insulted George W. Bush for no reason other than to showcase MacFarlane's dislike for him.
