Early Seasons Okay for 12+, Anything after season 10 is 14+

Let's start with this, I'm guessing all the ratings saying 17+ are people who watched the uncut later seasons. If your kid wants to watch this show, just know the first 9-10 seasons aren't any worse than shows like The Office and Friends, after that it gets more on the TV-MA side, and not only are the later seasons more inappropriate but their too political and lower quality, so your kid won't even want to watch them. Now let's talk about the early seasons, the early seasons are still crude (Worse than The Simpsons but far cleaner than South Park). They have TV-14 language (Bitch, ass, damn), mild drinking, slapstick violence and implied sex and sexual dialogue, a few of the jokes are pretty crude but they'll fly over any kids over 12's head. They're nothing worse than The Office or Arrested Development jokes and for that matter come off even less explicit just because it's cartoon. So yeah the first 9 seasons are pretty good and funny and kids will enjoy it.

The new storyline of Family Guy from seasons 1-23

Family Guy is awesome show along side American Dad! and King of The Hill but the show needs Full Crossover episodes I would love crossovers to be added to the Family guy seasons 4-23. Another thing I like about Stewie Griffin and Olivia Fuller being a couple even Brian Griffin and Jillian Russell as a couple. I personally love to add Olivia and Jillian added as 2 main characters to Family Guy along with Stewie, Brian, Lois, Meg, Peter, Chris, Joe, Cleveland and Quagmire from seasons 1-23. Three things I find acceptable are relationships, friendships and family why because they have love. I prefer to have Brian, Jillian, Stewie and Olivia staying as a couple and going on adventures together. Three things I find unacceptable are racism, break ups and gay why because they have hate please delete episodes with gay, race, and break ups they are unnecessary. I would prefer Chris Griffin and Glenn Quagmire dating other people. Meg, Jillian, Olivia and Brian are the only people who understands Stewie more. I would love Meg Griffin to date Steve Smith from American Dad!. secrets must remain secret. Chris is a punching bag to everybody and always left out in the new the storyline I want this happening. Meg Griffin shares bond with Lois I would love see more Meg and Lois episodes. Meg is only one cares about Stewie, Brian, Olivia and Jillian. Meg Griffin less abused and more bullied along with her friends. I would enjoy hearing Peter saying shut up to Chris and farted why because he doesn't matter to family. The only 3 people who matters to Family are Meg, Stewie and Brian even in the new crossover series coming in 2024 called American Guy which involves Peter, Lois, Stewie, Brian, Meg, Chris, Joe, Quagmire, Cleveland, Olivia, Jillian, Stan, Francine, Hayley, Steve, Roger, Klaus and Avery Bullock as the main characters even the minor characters like Patty, Ruth, Esther, Jeff Fischer, Tom Tucker, Joyce Kinney, Jerome Cool J, and new minor characters on the way. Meg is smart girl and sometimes helps Brian and Stewie even their girlfriends. I would to have just one Meg kidnapping episode. I hate John Herbert because he breaks the law all time and he stinks but I want him appearing 3 episodes. I especially hate Neil Goldman because he is an unreliable characters I prefer him to appear in 9 episodes. I enjoy seeing Meg crying I prefer to see more of that. Stewie will be evil until season 10 and the Stewie is good smart baby and spending more time with Olivia. please make the changes happen in the new storyline of Family Guy. Finally I want Family Guy and the full crossover episodes as a feel good show because if that show feels good I feel good. need more, Meg, Lois, Stewie, Brian, Olivia, Jillian, Peter, Quagmire, Cleveland and Joe episodes need less Chris and Bonnie episodes. Principal Shepherd incompetent like Buck Strickland but he will help Brian, Stewie, Lois, Meg, Jillian and Olivia in the new storyline. The new storyline of Family Guy will 22 episodes from seasons 1-23. The new storyline will have more popularity. The new Family Guy storyline will begin on September 18th 2024. I find the show great but too much violence Family Guy needs to have some violence but not too much in other words less. Family Guy needs to have more sex I would love that.
