Today with the push of a button, there is no telling what a viewer is about to witness at first glance when turning on a television. So far television is a controlled media with standards and laws to protect viewers from seeing things that are said to be indecent or obscene. Over the years the television series Family Guy has been questioned for most of its content. Many parents are disturbed with the fact that the content is for a mature audience and it’s based in a cartoon.
Several of the Family Guy episodes from 2005 to 2009 have been taken off air because of the content in the episodes was indecent for viewers on network cable. The PTC (Parents Television Council) has spoken harshly against the show and has been consistent in speaking against Family Guy and letter writing campaigns to Fox Networks to cancel the show. However because the show brings in so much revenue, it is hard for a network to simple cancel a show with such a large fan base.
