Hm. I didn't hear about this one but I heard about this one:
Story at 43(B)log: Family Guy is lawsuit guy

I mean, wow... be honored, don't be a dick

This is my favorite show, but to be honest, I'm surprised more groups haven't sued them. They offend everybody. They are no respecter of persons, so to speak.

Interesting. Hopefully it's not too big that they'll have to take dramatic measures and quit.

Parody and satire is a central theme in Family Guy, everyone knows that, Hell, Robot Chicken, also directed by Seth Green, has parodied everything from Hello Kitty to Mario Kart to Law and Order. They're just being douchebags cause someone decided to throw a hissy fit.

Hell, if you're gonna sue Family Guy, why don't you make a class-action lawsuit against Weird Al?

Also, antisemitic? The only antisemitic thing in that song is the line "Even though the killed my Lord", and a lot of people who read the Bible believe that higher-ups in the Jewish faith were largely responsible for Jesus being executed for blasphemy.

Just now I realize that it's sung to the tune of "When You Wish Upon a Star".

I think this is a case that they are bound to lose. People want to sue for every little thing these days and hopefully they lose and are the ones who are made to pay and not fox!

Family Guy is more progressing in randomness and i like this show and its characters and not anyone else.

The only thing left on FOX that I will watch is 24.
So far it managed to go through 8 seasons without getting cancelled. Let's see if they make it to 9.
