Parent group files FCC complaint against 'Family Guy'

The Parents Television Council is filing an indecency complaint with the Federal Communications Commission against Fox's "Family Guy" for a March 8 episode that included -- and this is from the press release -- "bestiality, orgies and babies eating sperm."

Since there's nothing hotter than PTC president Tim Winter talking about graphic TV content, let's get right to his quote:

"Fox treated viewers to everything from an ?eleven-way? gay orgy to baby Stewie eating a bowl of cereal with horse sperm instead of milk ... if that isn?t enough, the show?s leading character is also shown fanaticizing about his wife and moaning while a horse licks his bare behind. Clearly, the explicit content was not isolated to one instance in one segment of the show; it permeated the entire program."

I know. I can't believe I missed "Family Guy" last week either.

And presumably Winter meant "fantasizing" not "fanaticizing," the latter meaning "to cause to become fanatic."

The PTC is urging its purported 1.3 million members to file FCC complaints against "Family Guy" as well. The organization has a history of taking issue with the show's content and series creator Seth MacFarlane was asked about the PTC last year:

"Oh, yeah. That?s like getting hate mail from Hitler. They?re literally terrible human beings. I?ve read their newsletter, I?ve visited their website, and they?re just rotten to the core. For an organization that prides itself on Christian values ? I mean, I?m an atheist, so what do I know? ? they spend their entire day hating people. They can all suck my d**k as far as I?m concerned."

The organization has targeted other shows over the years with various degrees of success. The PTC has gone after notorious content offenders such as "Nip/Tuck" ... "Las Vegas" ... the Golden Globe Awards ... "That 70s Show" ... "Father of the Pride" ... "Big Brother" ... "Without a Trace" ... "Friends" ... the Billboard Music Awards ... "The Simpsons" ... "Dexter" ... the Live 8 concert ... "Today" ... "Survivor" ... "Two and a Half Men" ... Carl's Jr.'s "Spicy BBQ Six Dollar Burger" commercial ... and "Gilmore Girls." Clearly, only the worst of the worst.

Love Seth McFarlane's comments about the PTC. These people clearly have nothing better to do than to moan and complain about shows that upset their religious values. Here's an idea, turn off the TV. I hate idiots that try to legislate morality, discuss.

These groups don't even watch the shows that they complain about. Hopefully the network doesn't cave, and screw the FCC.
 
then don't let you kids watch it - fucking irresponsible parents go whining to
the government to stop free speech.

Yeah pretty much, they go to the website which then tells them what they are outraged about that week. Droves of letters are then sent off to the FCC, think of the children!
 
Which is why I don't let my kids watch Family Guy and why I throw things at my brother-in-law when he's home and tries to watch Family Guy around my kids.

But I don't go around bitching about it either.

Not to mention the fact that it's not funny.

I stopped watching it for this reason (much like The Simpsons) but I still love the older episodes...especially the ones with Peter and the chicken fighting.

That episode seems like it's not appropriate for anyone to watch. Stuff like that is just ridiculous and I don't think many people got a laugh out of watching it either. Personally, I don't think the indecency complaint is unfounded. Family Guy is hilarious at times, but that's incredibly WTF.

I guess we just have to assume they're cool with that.

Or it's okay because it was violence being perpetrated on a gay.
