YMMV / Family Guy S 4 E 4 Dont Make Me Over

• Alternative Character Interpretation: Did anything with Meg and the Griffin family's music career actually happen? Was it all just a sketch for Saturday Night Live? Or was it something that happened and the Griffin family decided to cope with it by turning it into a sketch for Saturday Night Live?

• Harsher in Hindsight:
  • At one point in the episode, Stewie accepts a bet to run naked through the mall yelling, "Help! I’ve escaped from Kevin Spacey's basement!" It's a little awkward now after Spacey was accused by multiple men of unwanted sexual advances, with the first accuser, Anthony Rapp, claiming to have been only 14 years old at the time. What's worse is that the original line was going to be Stewie screaming that he escaped Roman Polański's basement, and, much like Kevin Spacey, Polanski's career was also ruined by a sex scandal involving a minor.
  • Peter's reaction upon seeing the made-over Meg—thinking she was another daughter of his from an implied affair two decades earlier—becomes this when we, and Lois, learn that Peter ''does'' have another teenage daughter--scores of them, in fact, and sons--from donating sperm years before.
  • Dr. Diddy, a homage to P. Diddy, decides to focus the family band’s image on sexualizing Meg, who’s still a teenager. Cut to 2023, where Diddy in real life is hit with numerous allegations, one of which is from 17-year old girl accusing him of gang rape.
