What do you think of the controversy? Let us know in the comments below!

The only reason the North Pole episode drew so much criticism was because people didn't want to have the Christmas spirit ruined by the truth of the retail industry. I can understand that, but I also feel like it's an important message that should be spread so more people are aware of what retail workers have to go through to meet demand for the holidays of big retail markets. The home invasion part was crazy though lol

In Seth's defense in road to the north pole, it did have an important message about taking advantage of Santa.

Stewie and Brian meets Santa is one of my favorite episodes! In fact what really gets me is that at first Stewie is all about killing Santa, then goes from that to wanting to help Santa after seeing the horror show that his workshop had become.

As a Jewish person I can say the episode when you wish upon a Weinstein had me laughing the whole time

Almost every modern episode has at least one offensive joke in it.

I know I’ll probably get flamed for this, but I actually liked the episode where Quagmire was trying to help his sister. For me it wasn’t the humor or anything else, it was just the lengths that Quagmire was willing to go to protect his sister from that abusive monster that made me like the episode. Seeing the jerk get slammed against the tree by the car was the best part of the episode for me

The episode were Stewie gets pregnant with Brian's kids is pretty messed up. That's definitely one of my most hated episodes.

I'm transgender and I thought that _Quagmire's Dad_ was pretty well written. It was a little too real though in my opinion. The way everyone reacted to Ida is a harsh reality to how a lot of people treat us and react to us. We're not monsters. We're not diseased. We're not freaks. We're just people trying to live our lives, but with a struggle that most will never understand.

Let’s not forget with #7 the important quote from Cleveland: “You want to make the media go away? Just mention black on black crime.”

When you wish upon a Weinstein was pretty creative writing to be honest. It’s crazy how this episode was so “controversial”.

I am very surprised the episodes around Brian's death are not on here considering Seth McFarlane got death threats from killing off Brian

Stewie has been very controversial on recent episodes, namely when he married that ukrainian post bride and when he fell in love with muscular Lois.

Simpsons are family friendly? Like when the father chokes his son for any reason?

It’s a CARTOON people! Just enjoy the humour. If you don’t like it, don’t watch it.

crazy thing is, I have at least three of these episodes on DVD and never considered they didn't air on tv

5:00: I'm an Orthodox Jew, my friends & I absolutely loved that episode.

I actually love partial terms of endearment especially the scene with griffin family's coversation about abortion.

All I have to say with number 1 is that's the only time I respected Quagmire

Road to the North Pole was one of my favorite more recent episodes. I'm not surprised that the one about Quagmire's sister was number one.

If someone was treating one of my sisters like that, I'd react just like Glen. Is it morally questionable? Yes. But the law protects the criminal more than it does the victim these days.

#1 - is controversial? You know how many brothers / sisters would beat the crap out of a sibling's abusive partner? 🤷‍♂️

Life of Brian should have been on this list. It was so controversial that many fans quit the show.

Oh Brenda Q. The thing that I find most disturbing in that episode is that Brenda never actually changes. Jeff only stops because the guys kill him, NOT because she finally left or stood up to him or realized she deserved better. And yes, battered woman syndrome, I can't imagine what it's like to go through that, but this is a cartoon, and the real hero is Lois, because she's the only one who really tried to help Brenda help herself, which would make Brenda a stronger person and hopefully not find herself another Jeff. Instead, Glenn runs him over, Joe writes that terrible fake letter, and we leave Brenda thinking it's all her fault. Again.

None of these went too far to me. I actually have a sense of humor and can laugh at almost anything. If the world would learn to lighten up and laugh more, this might just be a better world to live in.

As someone who lives in the UK, I never knew Partial terms of endearment was banned from airing in the US, have many of you who live there seen it? Since it was on DVD there probably is a huge number of people would of still seen it.

I’m not trans, and I can agree that Brian’s reaction was completely understood

Most of these episodes on the list are in the top 100 all time FG episodes. The fact that they didn't "play it safe" is what seperates these from the casual episodes. When You WIsh Upon A Weinstein, Brian And Stewie, Quagmire's Dad, The Endearment episode, The Christmas episode, and the episode where Quagmire saves his sister were edgy, but the true sentiment of what they wanted to portray was pure.

I oughta tell ya, I always thought "when you wish upon a star" was public domain.

I disagree. The Simpsons and Family Guy crossover was awesome!

I love all of these episodes 🤣 Seth and the writers put a lot of thought into these stories

Gross out humor aside I really liked “Stewie and Brian”. It’s not often the show gets serious especially now so it was nice to see characters get deep like this.

442: At least Vinny didn’t know about that episode. If you don’t remember, they get a new dog and he asks Stewie “did someone puke in your room or something?”

Lmao Road to the North Pole was my favorite episode Stevie was straight up savage

Turban cowboy was on point, in fact most of the episodes of Family Guy are on point and that’s what make them offensive as people refuse to see harsh reality

the "wish apon a weinsten" was broadcast in the uk over and over, so its only lost in the usa

88: I honestly don’t care what critics say. I love The Simpsons Guy! It’s my favorite episode of all time!

Stewie having a baby with Brian my BFF hates that ep

I am sorry, the comments about the transgender episode are a joke. I am not going to get into the right or wrong of it all. You can argue a lot of the episode is offensive. I can see that, I don’t agree generally, but I can completely see where people might. That being said, to say Brian throwing up when he found out he slept with him is completely a joke. Basically what you are saying is we not only need agree with every aspect of that life or else you are a bad person or a bigot is already too far, but to say that he absolutely must be fine with sleeping with her, and by the way it was unknowingly, is ridiculous. This is not meant to be conversation about trans rights, but that comment is a joke. You can have a discussion about rights but to say they not only must he be okay with sleeping with him, how dare he be grossed out? Are you kidding me? A guy can react this way after sleeping with someone who isn’t trans. This is my biggest problem with these movements. It isn’t about rights or legal acceptance. You must accept my way, every inch of it, and every single thing I ask for no matter what or else you are a bigot. I am sick of this attitude.

Leave it to Stewie and Brian to get away with a home invasion and some how not get caught.

This is something that makes the actions of the Griffins far more palatable: they are all horrible people. With episode of Quagmire's Dad, Ida is respectful and is never offended by how the Griffin's treatment of her. Ida herself is treated in a very good light. It's sort of Seth MacFarlane's subtle way of berating those he hates while ironically these people cheer on the characters and possibly identify with, only strengthening the comparison.

Seems crazy that there is an episode more controversial than episodes that didn't air and were pulled from streaming.

What do you think these episodes would be like if they weren't controversial?

For these episodes, the manatees in the tank were feeling especially spicy...

yet some of these are some of the best episodes over the last few years

Maybe it's my dark Danish humor, but I personally don't find any of those episodes offensive, though I can see/imagine how others might. However, if I absolutely had to pick one then maybe "Turban Cowboy", mainly because I know quite a few with Middle Eastern heritage - most of whom are really nice and funny, and some who are just d*cks.

My favorite family guy episode is the one where stewing tries to save his teddy bear

441: These episodes made me laugh but sometimes I cringed, had no idea and starting to see why. But I still love The Simpsons Guy, for good reasons, that made my day.

This show was all right before McFarland decided shocking people was more important than being entertaining.

Number 6 "when you wish upon a weinstein" wasn't banned from TV, I see it air every now and then.

Christmas is Coming looked like another controversial episode due to Meg's reaction to when Stewie was on Santa's lap!

Difficult pill to swallow, people are losing grit and want to be victims for the sake of social status. I agree with your pics, and all emotions are valid, this just showcases small samples of America's increasingly brittle spirit. Be safe y'all.

Honestly, the episode introducing Ida WAS done well. It perfectly depicted how trans people are regularly treated AND it depicted the struggle of coming to terms with a family member transitioning and it being STRESSFUL but you also want to support them and want to give other people crap for thinking it's a joke or something to rag on. As a trans person myself and someone who has seen several people deal with transitions of family members, I think Family Guy handled it shockingly well. Sure, it was crude, but it's family guy. I don't go to family guy for sensitivity and carefully covered topics. Sure, I do think some they REALLY Don't handle well, but there is a difference between sending the exact opposite message when they're trying to send a good one [The Brenda Q story for example] and "Family Guying up a topic". The right people learn the right stuff at the end, and that's what's important. And no, I don't consider The Griffin Family "the right people" because they're REALLY not. And Ida continues to be an amazing character. Honestly, I'd have been more upset if the TERRIBLE characters in the show didn't mock or say horrible stuff. Because they're BAD PEOPLE. So to see bad people be cool with something like that DEFINITELY sends the wrong message. So for them to act LIKE BAD PEOPLE is expected.

I did saw the episode “Quagmire’s Dad” over few times in the past.

Turban Cowboy hasn’t been removed from streaming services it’s available on Disney+ here in Australia

89: Was there a problem when Lois said to her daughter “when you gave birth to Stewie” and Stewie is like “WHAT?!” and Peter Griffin acting like Looney Tunes coyote?

Peter: Run '80s black guys! You're no match for the '90s black guys!

What about Extra Large Medium? This episode was made infamous for its portrayal and the controversy revolving around Sarah Paylin’s child who actually has it.

I only got to see 'Partial Terms of Endearment' thanks to ITV2 from the UK. I love that UK television is less uptight than ours.

I liked road to the North Pole’s commentary on the workforce. I also really liked Brian and Stewie’s messages as someone who has questioned my purpose and existence.

If I had to make a list of the top ten funniest Family Guy episodes this would have more or less been what I came up with. Seth, make many more like these please!

10:18 i watched this episode for the first time on netflix when family guy was still on netflix

I think people who complain that the show is being offensive or “crossing the line” are kinda overreacting. I’m gonna get a lot of hate for this comment but if you know the jokes in Family Guy are offensive to you, why would you watch the show. If you watch Family Guy, you should be ready for them to go there with dark jokes and you should know that they don’t hold back. Don’t like it?Maybe watch something else then. Don’t keep watching and then start complaining about the dark humor, sorry but by watching Family Guy your pretty much asking for it.

Brian and Stevie was a really good episode

Please do next top 10 most controversial American dad episodes!

Around 5:00 top, the episode aired temporally in Portugal at Fox channel, it was pulled of later before 2010

It's gotta be "when u wish upon a weinstein" and "Peter griffin:father, brother, Husband"

I don’t care. I like Road to the north pole. It was a meaningful about christmas and lesson to everyone in Quahog.

It really depends what you are trying to take from this episodes, if you see them from an entretainment and dark humor light then they are enjoyable, but if you take the topics seriously and look for a great depiction of what is happening then you are going to get dissapointed and even angry.

Missing the episode where Quagmire got away with Statutory rape

Brian and Stewie was amazing

Jeff’s Death was Oddly Satisfying, Quagmire and his sister can finally sleep and she can finally live her life with her new kid.

I love controversial episodes and movies. They express subject matter everyone is scared to discuss.

It’s Family Guy, it’s supposed to be controversial.

A topic like this needs more than one list.

7:29 'I have never seen a hat like that, so I am very scared of it.' At least he sure is upfront with his religious prejudices.

I suspect that most critics do not understand the genius of Family Guy's humor. Which is that it opens the typically closed mind of men, which then paves the way our learning tolerance for, and gaining a perspective on, the views and concerns of others. Which is otherwise extremely difficult, if not impossible, to accomplish.

Honestly I love each episode of this list

"c'mon you like throw up" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 one of the best family guy episodes.

How come Brian's death isn't even in here? That was controversial as fuck

I laughed and rewatch Shot In The Dark and Turban Cowboy. This is why I love family guy - it’s raunchy, it’s controversial, it’s unapologetically offensive and it takes no prisoners!

I feel like Family Guy is one of those shows that intend to piss you off. Like South Park, if it doesn't piss you off, it's not doing its job.

Why do people have to be so serious all the time? Can nobody take a joke anymore? It's a cartoon! If you feel hurt, God forbid, CHANGE THE DAMN CHANNEL! No one forcing you to watch it.

Speak for yourself Rode to the North Pole is one of my top 3 favorites🤣

“Brian & Stewie”, one of my most favorite ‘Family Guy’ episodes.

I was thinking to make my own animated show, it's called "less than human", a show with monsters as protagonists and a rural community as a main setting, the protagonists are a zombie, a clown, a vampire, and a wolfperson

Almost all Family Guy episodes have controversy.

Honestly the most controversial and offensive episodes are the funniest lmfao

Look, in Quagmire's Dad, I don't think Peter was being insensitive, he was just genuinely curious, and he's also stupid.

Turban cowboy is on Disney+ in Canada

I just rewatched Quagmire's dad episode not even an hour ago

The only reason people don't like these episodes isn't because it's controversial it's because it shows what the world is really like it shows us this happens in real life everyday on a daily basis but what do they do they think people can't handle it when people honestly need to grow up it's important to learn about these issues.
