Family Guy and Jews
16
Family Guy, however, portrays Jews and Judaism more mildly and softly. This animated sitcom is about the life of a family of five. The story revolves around Peter Griffin, a typical dumb and obese American blue-collar worker; Lois, his wife; Chris, their obese son; Meg, their weirdo teenage daughter; Stewie, their infant whose main purpose is to exterminate everyone and destroy the world; and finally, their dog, Brian. Nonetheless, one of their episodes is basically a batch of Jewish jokes one after another. The absurd episode called “Family Goy” is directed by Mark Hentemann and involves twists, such as the fact that Lois’s mother turnes out to be a Holocaust survivor. However, Peter is way too much enthusiastic about being Jewish and attempts to become one.
