This review is from: Family Guy Series 5 Action Figure - Peter Griffin As Gary The No Trash Couga (Toy)

Regarding this toy's educational value, I can't help but see what this toy represents as a parallel for most of the damage happening in the world.

Consider that most of the damage is done by people who are misguidedly trying to improve things. It's the people trying to fix the world who break it the most.

In Peter Griffin's instance, he decides to make the world a better place by encouraging kids not to litter--and sets to his task by grabbing a pistol and donning a jungle-cat costume with blood-splashed jaws, and starts blowing holes in the ceiling of an elementary school cafeteria.

I'm glad we have heroes like the creators of Family Guy--who, like Seth MacFarlane pointed out in his commentary on "Wish Upon a Weinstein," "Remember, it's being said by an idiot. We have spent a hundred million dollars creating the single stupidest person on the face of the earth. This is the kind of behavior you should expect." Most in society are sleepwalkers. I'm glad we have examples like Peter Griffin to help people recognize parallel behavior.

Take terrorism, for example. What improves the world better than blowing up innocent people to get your way? This is just the best illustration I have ever seen of what comes to my mind every time I see this scene--"It's just better to be without virtue altogether than misapply it because you didn't think things through. At least the good guys will know your the bad guy." To that I would add, perhaps if they had watched family guy more, they would realize they are their own worst enemy.

All hail Seth Macfarlane!
