* In "Da Boom", Joe ends up being melted into the ground and is forced to fight a giant mutated rat, which he managed to beat. In nature, predators are looking for food rather than a fight and will often give up if their intended prey poses a real threat to themselves. Joe didn't have to kill the rat, he just to put up enough of a fight for it to decide he wasn't worth it and go look elsewhere.

**** And, speaking of Esther, as of this writing, we haven't seen her since the episode where she mentions the suicide pact ("Meg's Wedding"), so [[UncertainDoom who knows if she actually went through with it]]?

** [[https://drjohnsanders.com/christian-approaches-to-the-salvation-of-non-christians/ That's not even how every interpretation of the Bible goes in real life, either.]] Various interpretations hold that Jesus came to save ''all'' people, that there is no Hell in the first place, or that you're allowed to convert or be baptised after death.

* Brian driving a Toyota Prius was an example of this early on. Not only did he fit the stereotype of early Prius buyers in the mid-2000s, but it meant that prior to the switch to digitally rendered props and backgrounds the only car that was a recognizable make and model belonged to the *talking dog*.

Natter— with pedophilia apolgism and misinformation


** Having a sexual attraction to boys does not equate the desire to rape literally everything that moves. Morality aside, even knowing that Herbert would/has actually act/ed on his pedophilia (it would be more than likely that most people with this particular philia don't act on it in any way but haven't found a safe place to get help to NOT have this philia without being labeled a monster) it's still a stretch. A LONG stretch.

* Meg, despite being a grown woman, is much shorter not only than her parents, but her brother who just started puberty. This might not be because of [[TeensAreShort cartoon proportions]]. If you were abused that badly by your family, you too would suffer from stunted growth.

** In [[Recap/FamilyGuyS7E12Episode420 "Episode 420"]] Peter and Carter make an anti-cannabis video by making UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler a pot smoker, but Creator/{{Fox News|Channel}} told them to not air it because they own Hitler's likeness and don't want him slandered. Make of that what you will.

* The episode "''Padre de Familia''" had a joke about a movie called ''{{Film/Superman}} V: the Broken Condom''. The events of that made-up film involved Lois Lane being pregnant and Superman leaving for Krypton, despite it being destroyed, and saying they should see other people. Pretty much everything that happened between ''Film/SupermanII'' and ''Film/SupermanReturns''.

* This might be FridgeBrilliance in that Quagmire's job as a pilot means he travels a lot but some of the countries he travels to have waa~y different laws than the US. Those girls from his Thailand escapades might not have been "OlderThanTheyLook"

* Brian drives a car, but several episodes have pointed out that he is, like a real-life dog, colorblind. If he can't tell red from green, how does he read traffic signals? How many traffic incidents/accidents/injuries/fatalities has he had/caused by not being able to clearly see what color the lights are?

** The part where she's a young girl again is a way of trying to get you to reconcile with something you're not over; getting yelled at by Carter while she's trying to show him her playing the piano represents how much of a terrible father Carter is and a rotten husband to Babs, something Lois is and has been trying to push down for years.

** Her freaking out about failing a subject, in this case, not checking if her coupons were good? It's probably a nod to how Lois is trying to be this perfect straight-A mom when there's no need.
** Lois falling naked while losing teeth are all common dreams about a lack of control, embarrassment, and lies. In this case? Lois feels like she has no control over her life (the falling part) and is embarrassed by it (the naked part). So she lies to herself through whatever fad there is to compensate or to trick herself into being happy (the teeth coming out).
** The part where she's a young girl again is a way of trying to get you to reconcile with something you're not over. In this case, when she's getting yelled at by Carter, it represents how horrible of a husband and father Carter is to her and Babs. Something Lois is and has been trying to push down for years.
** Getting chased by a giant version of Peter is obvious. It's a nod to how she wants out of a terrible marriage, but she can't admit it because of how others will see her.
** Her being on trial for "mom-related boredom" is probably her mind calling herself out for trying to use drugs to escape her boredom and almost drowning Stewie in the toilet.

** Also, Brenda never once shows any form of suppressed fear or unhappiness with Jeff, despite that fact that he abuses her over trivial matters, and in ''broad daylight''. Either Brenda doesn't understand that she's being abused or that the abuse has been going on for so long that she's become desensitized to it and simply doesn't care.
