A Lantern in the Dark by Stacey Reynolds
Seth MacFarlane has made an immense mark on popular culture through both his live action and animated television series: Family Guy, American Dad , The Cleveland Show, and>The Orville. While MacFarlane has garnered a large legion of fans, even those who do not personally watch>Family Guy, this longest running series, will be quick to recognize images of Peter and Stewie Griffin: a caricature of the clueless dads from sitcoms of yesteryear and an inexplicably queer-coded evil baby genius, respectively.
This book explores>Family Guy and Seth MacFarlane's other animated series closely, examining how the series uses satire and other strategies to construct specific ideas related to sex, gender, and family. The authors argue that the series, like many other television series, contribute to our collective understanding of family, and reinforce (at times) unfavorable gender stereotypes.
