Chris's favorite Family Guy character, Herbert. Get your fat ass back here!

Family Guy is a mediocre animated sitcom renowned for its lack of originality and blatant plagiarism, which is ironic considering Chris rips it off so much in his comics.

The series is also the inspiration for Chris's infamous Ghostbusters "skitch" that appeared in Sonichu 7 and introduced the one-off appearance of his character Sammy, a creation that was a mix between Chris and Peter Griffin (srsly, and you thought his mix of him and Sonichu was bad!). Chris had hoped that the creator of Family Guy, Seth MacFarlane, could possibly use his sketch in a future episode, but he unfortunately didn't realize MacFarlane is quite capable of making unfunny, plagiarized, boring shit on his own.

Influence on Chris

Chris's declaration of intention regarding Meg.

Chris has variously expressed fanaticism for the series and watches it regularly. It can be inferred from this that the show's frequent use of non-sequitur, referential humor has bolstered Chris's belief that reproducing (or at least deriving) themes, motifs and characters from other works makes for legitimate, original art and has influenced his muddled understanding of parody.

Also significant is his citing of Family Guy as material that endorses homophobia, having completely misinterpreted what was a not-so-subtle jab at the prejudice in a recent episode. As the series often deals with issues of bigotry and other social taboos in a manner which to most would constitute ham-fisted irony, the question is raised as to what other messages from the show Chris takes at face value.

One of the best examples of Chris's misunderstandings of the show is Chris's referencing of a scene in which Stewie quotes the Bible to prove that gay marriage is wrong, the joke being that Stewie is constantly switching between being gay and straight (more often leaning toward gay), making his quoting of the Bible hypocritical. This joke obviously soared over Chris's head, and even now Chris references that scene to prove that being gay is wrong. What's even more ridiculous is the fact that Chris is using an animated comedy show to form his opinions on things like this.

It is notable that Seth MacFarlane holds almost the complete opposite beliefs to Chris — he is liberal, an atheist, supports gay marriage, believes in gay rights, and has hinted at drug use. The irony is nearly painful. Jack Thaddeus once purchased ad space on CWCipedia to display an ad banner announcing MacFarlane's support for gay rights; Chris was mortally offended and demanded the ad's removal.

Chris lifts lines and phrases from the show in conversation, perhaps unconsciously. He's been heard spouting the wacky phrase, "In da eaaaaggghh!", probably referring to an episode where Meg and her boyfriend take an abstinence pledge, and are discovered by Lois having ear sex. When he's angry — in the Father Call, in Vivitheg's AIM chat, in the e-mail that accompanied the sports bra photo series — Chris often declares that a person or situation "grinds his gears," which is originally one of Peter Griffin's stock sayings.

Similarities with Family Guy

While very likely unintentional, since it is highly doubtful that Seth MacFarlane knows of Chris's existence, there are a few instances of similarity from Chris's work with Family Guy.

The first few minutes of "Road to Germany," when Mort Goldman looks desperately for a bathroom, only to accidentally go into Stewie's new time machine, is strikingly similar to the Ghostbusters skitch.[1]

Likewise, many trolls noticed how uncanny Peter Griffin in the episode "Three Kings" was wearing a shirt very similar to one of Chris's trademark shirts. However, the shirt was originally featured in the 1986 film, Stand by Me, which this segment of "Three Kings" was based on.[2]

In the episode "Family Goy," Peter falls in love with a cardboard cutout of Kathy Ireland and later has sex with said cutout.

Another episode features a plot centered around the characters making a conscious effort to treat Meg better (a point of contention Chris has always had with the series). This seems mostly coincidence, except for a sequence where Peter performs as a male stripper dressed like a police officer. His stripper name? ...Officer Nasty.

Controversy

A majority of the show is based off its shock appeal, and has sparked several debates with parental groups over TV. Despite claiming to be a "family man", Chris believes that it is okay, even beneficial, for parents to show their children Family Guy at extremely young and impressionable ages. But only under parental supervision! This is despite the show's notoriety for its onslaught of sex jokes, violence, and language. The jokes would fly right over any kid's head, yet Chris believes that kids would find so hilarious that they'd even quote it. Most kids would find the show uninteresting, if only for the fact that they wouldn't get any of the jokes, all of which are lewd.

Chris and Meg

Megan thanks me very much for my compliments I gave a lot of, and we hang out throughout the episode (I hope she has turned Eighteen by the time I get there, so this can be a really good story).

Chris's welcome page as of 9 October 2009

Chris has a crush on Megan Griffin (a cartoon character, for those keeping track at home). However, what Chris doesn't seem to understand is that a good portion of the show's "humor" is intended to come at the expense of Meg Griffin. She is mostly portrayed as fat, unlikeable and ugly (sound familiar?) and given very few lines in episodes. Despite her portrayal, Chris has developed feelings for her, perhaps finding a kindred spirit in another person whose only use seems to be to entertain the masses by being constantly mistreated by the world at large (that or her name just reminds him of someone...). Although she is underage, Chris has sought porn of her, going so far as to assimilate it into his comics (see here).

On 8 October 2009, he commented on a YouTube clip from the episode "Road to the Multiverse" depicting a hot alternate-universe Meg, lamenting that if only MacFarlane let Meg turn 18 that CWC would "be all over her sweet pussy and breasts."[4]

It is unknown what his opinion of Meg is following all the "nasty-ass" sex she had with Jerome in Family Guy 0807 ("Jerome Is the New Black").

In Sonichu 10, Chris went and inserted Meg into the comic, having her compliment Chris on the comic. In turn, Chris defends Meg's "honor" by beating up a guy who insults the two of them. He then kisses Meg, cheating on his future wife Lovely Weather. Ironically, if Meg likes Chris, this means the rest of the Griffin family hates him. However, he revealed this to be Silvana in disguise, though to what purpose remains to be seen.

Chris's message to Seth MacFarlane

On 05 June 2009, The Miscreants special ops agent Bryan Bash hacked into Chris's YouTube account and found a message Chris sent to Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane, via his YouTube account.

Hello Seth,

I am a long-time Family Guy Fan. I have purchased the Blu-Ray of your Calvacade; I enjoyed all but the homosexual and dick jokes (I detest the homos very strongly). For your next bunch of 50 or so videos, please do more breast and vagina jokes.

Also, in Family Guy, PLEASE give Megan more respect, because she IS VERY BEATIFUL in my perspective, and she truly deserves MORE Positive attention and less abuse. Give her an irreversable Love Potion or something yo give her the attention that she deserves for MULTIPLE SEASONS and MULTIPLE CONSISTANT episodes.

We LOVE Megan Marie Griffin.

Peace,

Christian Weston Chandler, creator of Sonichu and Rosechu at http://www.cwcville.com

The Cleveland Show

27 September 2009 saw the debut of The Cleveland Show, a Family Guy spin-off that answered the question, "What would happen if we took one of the least popular characters on Family Guy and gave him his own show?" Naturally, it sounded like a solid gold idea to Chris, as he plugged the show heavily on one of his Captain's Logs. The eager endorsement of the show by an odorous, bra-wearing creepy-ass manchild is certainly much appreciated by the Fox network.

It would seem Chris may have been too hasty in his initial endorsement of the show. In a CWCipedia update on 11 December 2009, after making several idiotic points about Family Guy, his analysis of The Cleveland Show consisted simply of, "I do not care for all the dick jokes."

In another eerie coincidence, a recent episode revolved around a sex doll named Kimmi.

The Chrisode

Leaked concept sketches made by Seth MacFarlane himself.

On December 9th, 2009 Chris states that he's heard rumors that Seth MacFarlane is planning on including him in a future Family Guy episode. This obviously fake news swells Chris's ego to gigantic proportions and he feels the need to pitch his idea for the plot. Below is the plot currently posted on the Cwcipedia.

I, Christian Weston Chandler, have described the story in a nutshell in my recent video. But to reiterate (the final story will be typed up then copied/pasted onto this page), The show opens on Megan going onto the Cwcipedia on her computer in her room, reading the latest page uploaded and enjoying it. Later, she sends a message for the Mailbag, asking if I could come to Quahog for their upcoming Comic Book Convention to show off my work. I respond, "I just may, Meg.  ;)" Then I later drive up to Quahog in my car (debatable on the destination being the Comic Con or the Griffin House), either way, the Griffins greet and welcome me. Then I break out my two S-Chu Balls, toss them and release Sonichu and Rosechu; more greetings. Megan thanks me very much for my compliments I gave a lot of, and we hang out throughout the episode (I hope she has turned Eighteen by the time I get there, so this can be a really good story). For the "B" Story, Brian gets a bit antsy around the Lovehogs' cuddlings, and he just could not help but ask them about how they maintain their relationship. And Sonichu and Rosechu tell Brian and help him find himself a new good girlfriend. **Suggestion to Seth, Let's Add a Smart, Sweet Girl Dog for Brian (Yes, SHE TALKS), as for breed, I think any sexy breed (not a poodle; nothing against poodles, but I feel that a poodle might not work well for Brian).

Chris's criticisms

Although Chris loves Family Guy, he has several ideas that he's certain would make the show much, much better. Most of his suggestions revolve around his infantile fears of homosexuality and his sad ability to fall desperately in love with fictional women. Also: subtle hints of bestiality.

Family Guy

-Megan does not deserve the abuse she gets. She is a Beautiful Girl, she is Very Smart, and she is the Oldest of the three children. So, Why.T.F. does Seth let most everyone treat her terribly? What is it about her that everyone is seeing to instinctively wail on her by default? WHAT and WHY?!

-Stewie should have let that tower fall on him; at least in the future scenario there, he Ended Up Straight.

-Chris finally got the best girlfriend he could ask for at the end of Season 6, Anna, so what happened to her between then and when Connie dated him in Season 7?

-While I can see Brain looking for the womanly qualities that he finds in the women he's dated, why does he not date female talking dogs who are That Pretty, Smart and all that?

-In "Road to Multiverse", in the "Robot Chicken" Universe, Stewie asks Seth Greene through Chris, "How does it feel to be on a Major Network for 30 Seconds?" Upon watching the video file on my PS3, the time in that universe was Only 20 Seconds Total, and there were NO additional portions of that scene in the version later shown on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. Seth McFarline owes Seth Greene 10 Seconds and then some.

American Dad -There should be More Stories starring Haley.

The Cleveland Show -I do not care for all the dick jokes.
