Family Guy is literature because of its references to social issues in today’s society. For example, models think they have to be super skinny in order to be a good model. There is also an episode about how ridiculous reality TV. shows are now and how easily it is to become famous. Also, this show portrays how obese our society is now by letting Peter eat as many burgers as he pleases because he saved a person. This show is not just a show to laugh at; there is a deeper meaning behind every episode that gives examples of how our society is today. Literature in this century consists of today’s problems and expressed in many new ways such as cartoons, online, and even in songs. Kids are no longer reading literature …show more content…
Places like McDonalds and Taco Bell make it easy to not buy their food for cheap, but almost all of it is made with artificial meat and come in oversized portions. For example, at Taco Bell we can buy a 12 taco box and at McDonalds we can supersize stuff. Who really needs this much food? Thirty states in America have rates of obesity of 25 percent or more. We tend to follow in our families footsteps because people learn to eat and cook the way in which they were brought up. Instead of dieting the old fashion way by cooking good meals, cutting portion sizes, and regularly exercising. America has been exposed to faster ways to lose the pound by using diet pills, no carb diets, starvation, and even liposuction. In the episode named “He’s Too Sexy for His Fat”, Chris quits going to gym class because he is self-conscious of his body. Lois tries making special low fat meals for him to help lose weight and Peter tries talking him into getting liposuction. Since Chris doesn’t want to do it, Peter decides to go for it. After surgery Peter loves the results and gets sucked into excitement of having work done to his body, he ends up getting work done to his face too. Peter starts getting so much attention from everyone; he begins to become cocky and joins “The Beautiful People’s Club.” One day on the way to the club, he is so mesmerized by himself, Peter drives over a cliff. From all the damage he returns to his old self again. After watching this episode, it makes one think that people are so interesting in getting fake surgeries in order to be more beautiful is okay. This episode is trying to say that even after surgeries, things can go bad meaning the surgery can backfire and leave you looking worse than you did before. It is also saying that doing quit dieting routines is not the safest route and we should stick to the natural way rather than the quick way. Society
