'Family Guy' has faced numerous challenges throughout its extensive TV journey, including a surprising twist involving the family of one of its stars attempting to have the show cancelled.

Renowned for its mix of humor and controversy over a quarter-century on the air, 'Family Guy' has maintained a loyal fan base despite frequent flirtations with cancellation. Led by the talented Seth McFarlane, the show recently defied tradition by securing a 2-season extension, further solidifying its place in television history.

In a candid interview with People magazine, Patrick Warburton, known for voicing Joe Swanson, disclosed his parents' disdain for his involvement in the show. Despite financially supporting his family through his 'Family Guy' role, Warburton revealed his mother actively sought to have the show banned, displaying a growing animosity towards the series. Warburton humorously remarked that his parents' disapproval has escalated over the years, with his mother even joining efforts to censor the show through the American Television Council.

While the irony of a cast member's family opposing the very show he stars in is amusing, 'Family Guy' has a history of polarizing episodes and occasional missteps that divide audiences. Warburton's parents, known for their conservative values, have never embraced the show's risqué humor, with Warburton sharing anecdotes of their unconventional beliefs. Despite its adult-oriented content, 'Family Guy' also delivers heartfelt moments and societal critiques, enriching its narrative beyond mere shock value.

Fans can enjoy 'Family Guy' on Hulu and traditional TV platforms, immersing themselves in its blend of satire and entertainment.
