Hey, quick question, i just saw a clip of "Family Guy" where Peter was in a waiting room freaked out da an autistic lady and i was wondering, how do te guys feel about the autism joke?
Who the fuck cares what people think of the creators making fun of others with autism.>_>
South Park has done way worse on subjects for episodes and they haven't been sued, others complaining about this are butthurt in the culo and don't know how life is.

where's the sensitivity in that? where's the empathy? sued o not, it's still wrong for a lot of different kind of people to be made fun of like that. i know that there are people who cause stereotypes, but there are s
I agree. I have AS and my sister has some sort of Autism spectrum, and that is just rude and kinda evil. I( can get the same entertainment watching the Simpsons, no trouble. I don't HAVE to watch Family Guy.
If they don't like it being made fun of, there are plenty other shows that don't. So pick and choose, because no one is holding a gun to your head making te watch the show! Oh, but te can laugh at the other jokes! That's fine and dandy!
Well.. i mean they make alot of rude romarks on blacks,asians and the disabled but the only thing I don't like is when they make those jokes about God, now thets crossing the line.

i think so to because its like they dont give a fuck about god o something!!
I myself have been touched with autism from birth, so I understand più than most the stigma it causes even on TV. I do find it forgivable 'cos it's human to misunderstand what te can only laugh at.
Same way I feel about the Prom Night cassonetto, dumpster Baby! o the secondo coming of Jesus! o Peter running over people at the Boston Marathon with his car! They are just jokes! Get over it!
well it's nothing new that Family Guy are making fun of people,but it is wrong and they need to stop.Can't they be funny without hurting a person feelings?
Though I have high-functioning autism myself, I wasn't really offended da this.

Same here, actually. I mean, I have high-functioning autism as well and it didn't really bother me. Heck, I can name several jokes (not just on Family Guy, either) that I found più offensive than this.
Yes, it is understandably offensive - because autism is involentary - but is there really a lot we can say to change it? Not to sound horrible o anything... but, when te think about it... that's part of Seth MacFarlane's point of Family Guy's humor: to poke a finger a society, and not specifically at one group of people. Just most people in general.
Plus: they've stepped out of line so many times... and they've detto much worse in other episodes... so why whine about one 'joke'? They'll keep on Scrivere these kind of things as long as the mostra goes on for. Get over it.
Yes it is but they make fun of everyone. They even make fun of pedophiles and God.... Just don't watch that episode if u have autism o r sensitive about it....
