And that's a trick question. Thanks to the status quo, Peter and Lois are doomed to be together no matter what because the status quo required them to be married. Come to think of it, Cleveland is the luckiest guy in the show. Unlike Peter and Joe, he was able to divorce Loretta early in the show and he later remarried with Donna Tubs. While Cleveland's new family had very little screentime, none of the Brown family seems to hate each other compared to everyone else. Cleveland was able to have a healthy family dynamic while his friends are in some type of hell.
Actually, there was a really recent episode where Lois said “Peter.. I want a divorce” and Peter responded “if we divorce I’m killing myself” Lois sighed, took out a newspaper and started reading, then the credits rolled I am not kidding btw
No matter how bad Lois became; Peter had the worst fate out of any character. He went from being a doofus with a heart of gold to the arguably the worst character of his own show.
Kinda like how they did Goku in dragon ball, he used to be ignorant but had a lot of common sense, now he’s an utter dingus obsessed with fighting to the point he puts his *world* on the line
You Should of titled this Video as: Lois Griffin: A Mother Without Morals Because Lois nowadays lacks restraint and discipline, along with her repeateded Emotional and Sometimes Physical Abuse of her family, Meg especially.
Personally I prefer “Quirky” Lois to “Mid-Life Crisis” Lois, just because I find her episodes during this era far more intriguing and less mean-spirited as a whole, but I can totally see where you’re coming from.
my favorite lois joke is the one where peter says something about diarrhea and lois starts laughing at it too. idk why but it's really funny in my eyes
I actually kinda admire quirky Lois. At least they’re not having Lois be nice and fake on the outside, but secretly awful, she’s just outwardly bitchy. It’s like they’re fully aware that she’s a bad person and they just embrace it and gave her some pretty fun episodes
The thing is though that’s not how she was portrayed in earlier seasons In fact all the family members have had drastic changes in how they started to how they are now and I think it’s been for the worst. Look at Peter,Brian,Stewie,Meg from earlier seasons and compare them to current
In defense of the clutter episode, it’s extremely relatable because I too am a Stay-At-Home Mom who went through a minimalism phase, and it very much felt like that. My husband has vivid memories of every item we own strewn on the bed while I aggressively hold up a piece of underwear going “BUT DOES IT SPARK JOY???” And then yeeting it into oblivion when the answer was a very obvious no.
They're all suppsed to be terrible flawed people, even though Brian seems to be the only one who gets any hate for it, despite being one of the least terrible cuz his negative traits are mostly harmless. Or perhaps that is why, since the other characters are outlandishly terrible people, it's easier to just brush it aside as "comedy."
Yeah making Lois a terrible character is 1 of the reasons why Family Guy went downhill & i wish i could move to an aleternate reality weree they didnt make Lois, Brian, Peter, Joe etc etc into terrible characters & that Family Guy didnt rely on shock humor & dysfunctionality.
Say what you want about the Simpson's family dynamic, you can't deny that they still feel like a family, instead of a bunch of psychopaths constantly trying to kill each other.
Exactly, yes. I will always have a special place in my heart for The Simpsons. I just outgrew the series is all whereupon I chose to stick with South Park and Futurama. Family Guy bought my hatred years ago.

@@brainthebrian3690it was more fun before mcfarlene realized it was good and popular. Then when he got involved it go weirder in some good ways but theres more bad than good ways i feel now.
A character trait I miss from Lois in the earlier seasons was when they aligned Lois with Peter's sense of humor. An example being "Hey Lois, diarrhea" joke, where she finds the word diarrhea as hilarious as Peter. These type of jokes were mainly done to subvert your expectations of Lois reaction to get a funny joke. But it's little moments like that makes Peter and Lois marriage feel more special then a standard sitcom marriage. It was actually a key point of Lois's backstory where she fell in love with Peter, because he was himself compared to her rich friends and family. But naturally as the show went on they relied heavy on the mean spirited bad marriage/affair jokes. Personally I feel the marriages in the adult animated comedies work best, when the two characters actually enjoys their partner's eccentric personality traits. Example being Homer & Marge, Bob & Linda, and Stan & Francine.
well, cause in reality those types of men are asses lol Maybe some life experiences started to seep through in the writing, i woulod be mad as hell too living with peter lol. Let her cheat, just like homer and the 10+ episodes of him having affairs
in fact they specifically had them share a sense of humour to actually give them a a common trait to bring them togetehr as a couple rather than just have them be a couple for no reason. And then hey forgot that and decided her beign miserable and bitchy was better than being likable or have any love for any of hr family.
Lois always had that more aggressive side to her character since the series' first season, but it was always complimented by her genuine love for her kids and and her husband. Nowadays, if her character isn't a hyper-aggressive nag, it's being labeled "Quahog's whore" with the amount of times she cheated on Peter.
@@ismaelrizo7707eh not really, Bonnie has her love/hate relationship with Joe but they always have a better bond I guess. Peter and Lois started out nice, only for them to turn her into a female Quagmire. Thirsty for any other man than Peter
@@mastertjt56 when you put like that, it kind of makes sense. I guess to me Bonnie was more like diet Lois. Since she hates Joe in the later seasons, literally cheating on him on multiple occasions and getting upset with him for cheating on her once. Not only that, she really plans on killing him.
Lois's old voice was so sweet and motherly. In late season three it became more high pitched, which was less motherly but also had a nice charm which complemented her new personality. But they've made it incredibly gargle-y to the point where she sounds like an old lady in a failing marriage. Oh wait
In the beginning of the show, Lois was seen as the glue that held the family together, the more responsible one and the voice of reason against Peter, even offering words of wisdom to the rest of the family, with the exception of Stewie. There were times that she snapped due to the pressure and you understood why she did so and you couldn't blame her, with Peter or the one responsible for this apologizing at the end of the episode. Now she is just as, if not more, reckless than Peter.
I feel like once they changed Lois character it threw the series off I think most comedy sitcoms need a voice of reason for the series if not it just becomes a silly sketch show
I was gonna mention that something I love that Bob's Burgers doesn't do that shockingly every other adult animated family show does is have a cheating episode. Or in the case of the Simpsons and Family Guy, MANY cheating episodes. Bob and Linda love each other to the extreme and wouldn't give each other up for anything. The closest they got was the seaplane episode, but Linda headbutts the guy and calls him an idiot for trying to get with her. They are inseparable C:
I mean after all, he was a young kid, around 10 he wants to say, one of his favorite shows was the popular adult sitcom known as family guy. I think we all know that at this point, but it's nice seeing him make that clear in every Family Guy video.
My thoughts on this can be summed up as: Altough Francine Smith has canonically done much wose things, Id still trust her more to take care of my 1 year old niece than Lois.
all aspects of Lois Griffin are just made 4 times better by Francine with the twist that she actually cares for her family (she's also funny enough to have chemistry with all the family members, but that can be said by everyone in the Smith family)
Was going to say Francine Smith is better and what you said there about American Dad sums up why I'm still able to tolerate the Smith family and the show American Dad itself.
@AnimeLover4Life3395 That's what I figure. I don't think American Dad is better and nor do I like it more than the other. Just that AD is the only one of the two shows I can still tolerate watching, so to speak.
That “hottest moms” list parody at the beginning was very 2008-2010ish, and I love it! I also love how one of the choices is Coral from Finding Nemo, and he just called her “fish” 😂
@@TheMightofDabBrian used to be an actual character subverting expectations by being a pretty grounded character whilst also being a dog. But after a while Seth McFarland kept inserting himself into him where now he’s just a snobby alcoholic who just sees woman as objects. Just like Seth does internally.
It’s amazing that Francine is infinitely better written than Lois. When there’s a Francine episode It’s usually a good sign, when it’s a Lois episode you’re preparing to zone out. Also Francine is hotter 🏄♂️
@@doomdimensiondweller5627fr like why choose the fully grown woman with two kids over an insecure teenage girl (literally the target audience for this stuff)
I totally agree with you on this. Lois (and the entire Family Guy cast, really) were better when they were more grounded. They were a dysfunctional family who still loved each other at the end of the day. The humour came from watching Peter do something stupid while Lois had to deal with him. At the end of the episode, it would all come together and was occasionally even heartwarming. Now we get a bunch of non-sequiturs about Peter/Lois/etc. just being terrible. The writers forgot that being mean isn't funny in and of itself. When Sterling Archer is a jerk, I don't laugh because he's being a jerk; I laugh because either A) He's going to succeed and make everyone mad that he was right while he gloats like a kid, or B) he's going to have it backfire terribly and face the consequences of his actions hilariously. Lois and Peter don't get that; they just get to be jerks with no real punchline. Great stuff as usual, Mark. Thanks for the video.
After finally finishing Archer yesterday, I kept thinking about it a lot during the points of the video. Mallory is my prime example of an complete asshole who is genuinely funny and also loves her son to death
One of my favorite early season episodes was the episode where Lois takes meg on spring break, it showed that she legitimately wanted to make meg happy but was flawed in the sense that she went way overboard with partying. It was a genuinely nice episodes in my opinion
@AquaBounce1010 Thanks sometimes when I'm quickly using auto fill or try to fix my grammar to quickly reply. I miss things like that & don't even realize it
pretty realistic though, just saying lol. don't ever expect a parent in a disfunctional household to hold their partner accountable when they can just blame the kids and have them shut up. i don't know, i guess none of this stirs me up so much since it's pretty grounded in my opinion lol. this is exactly how this type of family would go downhill over time. Not to say the show is doing it on purpose or trying tio be realistic lol
@@magical571 How do you *NOT* hold a parent accountable for hurting their own children. Fuck you mean *lol* like this crappy show is a joke? Exactly why it's not funny anymore. Only commentary section edgelords like you sit up trying to 🧢 for child abuse. Goofy.
@@magical571Got a point. I've seen the dynamic between mothers and daughters when I dated and it's... It can get bad dude. Some moms seem like the hate their daughters or rather jealous of them. Like the arguments I've seen are horrific.
@@sonicandmylittleponyfan2002nah, Modern Simpsons has some really good episodes like pixelated and afraid or a serious flanders, and while spongebob isnt anywhere close to as good, it's still not bad. Family guy good at all
Watching this video again after Marks community post saying that a sponsor backed out after seeing the "hottest mom" intro They just couldn't handle the tomfoolery
One of my least favorite aspects of family guy is how completely unbearable the characters can be at times. Lois was one of the worst examples but I think Quagmire, Brian, or Peter may be a little worse in my opinion. She became an awful person toward the family and would lose her temper constantly, taking it out on them. Also the show has this bizarre mindset later on where they think sexualizing her, because she's a woman I guess, is meant to be like a joke or something but its never funny. That Simpsons jab is in my opinion, one of the most uncomfortable things I ever sat through. Again though, her being awful to the family is just so infurating to watch. I get its the norm to have every character in an adult animated comedy to be an asshole, but seriously, all it does is ruin my investment cause every single character can just get away with anything. Those kind of jokes can be funny, but having each of the cast be a prick to accommodate for it all the time, just makes thing miserable. Sorry for the tangent but I guess the subject of cartoon characters being irredeemable dickheads is a subject I'm very passionate about.
I always thought that meanness is not automatically funny. People who make shows like this think they can just say or do something mean and then expect the viewer to laugh.
@@roberttreacy8271It feels like funny=mean when the fun part is either when they're actually making a joke or when they get their just desserts in the end. Very few people watch Eric Cartman be an asshole because that in of itself is funny. They watch him because of the way he goes about it or when he suffers the consequences of his actions.
Yeah Quagmire was made into a hyper-rapist and has this weird feud with Brian, who himself is obnoxious and taking lots of screentime. It's said that Family Guy devolved into the Stewie & Brian show and Brian is clearly inferior to Stewie in every way.
@roberttreacy8271 Yup Peter is a jerk. Brian is a jerk. Lois is a jerk. Quagmire is a jerk. Stewie I guess you could also put in the category although funnily enough he became less of a jerk over time despite originally being intended to stand out as the "bad" one.
Its not Just Peter and Lois that I hate I just hate parents in animation in general I'm so sick and tired of animation especially adult animation protraying families as dysfunctional it has honestly made me appreciate shows like Bob's Burgers, Amphibia, and The Owl House that protray loving, happy, and healthy family dynamics.
I can agree. I wish these shows would give us a reason to love these characters, but they don't. Dysfunctional can be done right, but frankly its a little overdone in adult animation shows. That being said, I don't think a lot of writers for these shows realize how funny loving families can be. I always loved how down bad Hal was for Lois, even tho it's not animation
@SporianSummit both King of the Hill and Bob's Burgers are some of the best representions of a traditional loving, happy, and healthy families and ten times better than Modern Simpson, Family Guy, and American Dad.
@@tylerbertram7065 I think modern Simpsons has gotten back to being a nicer family portrayal, but it was slipping off the rails for a while. Still, it never got anywhere NEAR what Family Guy has become.
@Marbles471 I will admit I haven't been keeping up with the Simpsons occasionally they make a good episode but more often than not modern Simpsons makes a really bad episode.
I’m convinced that Mark took one look at his poll, saw that Lois had the most votes at first, and told his editor to work on it, even though a majority of us voted for Stewie.
It’s weird that she went from sweet and caring, to becoming a sociopath, mean spirited and cruel to everyone. Including her own family. She could’ve been the voice of reasons to her family’s dilemma, but nope. They’re afraid that she’ll be too much like Marge Simpson, so decided to turn into this cruel and abusive person. This is the reason why this series is going down hill.
well, i like that. honestly i love the simpsons, but marge infuriates me since she resembles what a wife in an abusive relationship looks like.Having to rely in old memories of infatuation, out right saying "as long as you fill up the fuel tank i'm good with you homer", pretty clearly being there because of three accidents called children, and of course she loves them (i mean, that's what expected of her and very few media will go to the place of, what if she doesn't though? what if she is doing what she can and coping?) Being expected to always be grounded, sweet and collected, forgive his husband's several affairs, fix everything for everyone, and not even the episodes were she is suppossed to either get a vacation or just break under pressure give her real space or gratitude from others. Just a, "oh, but marge, we can't have you like this, the family doesn0t work without you" great awesome now go back to your miserable life as a mid class housewife. "haha nobody here can wipe their own ass, you gotta be an overworked housewife so funny and endearing". Let the wife beat the shit out their relatives for once, honestly.
I am convinced the "writers" or manatees or whomever is in charge of the scripts of family guy, hate their mothers so much they pour all their anger into Lois and that's why she's become such a shrill, heartless, cruel, insufferable **** who abuses her family and terrorizes everyone else.
I’ve always seen Louis as a woman struggling with identity. A girl from a rich family marries a normal man to then embark on a normal life while yet trying to hold onto her previous life. She’s also a really amazing portrayal a mother with severe postpartum depression after Stewies birth.
marge infuriates me. she embodies so much of what's wrong with stay at home moms in mid income households, yet the show expects you to find it endearing, when really she is just coping and doing what she can. and i say this as someone whoi loves the simpsons, but luckily they don't focus too much on her (would get really depressing and frustrating really fast. there's a reason the episodes focused on her tend to do worse than the rest)
Lois isn’t as bad as Brian, but I did really like her in older seasons. It was funny to watch her barely contain her wholesome mom facade under layers of (justified) frustration and rage. Lois going on a rampage because Meg couldn’t find paper towels will ALWAYS be better than Lois verbally and physically abusing her family
Same thing happened to Peter in the beginning of the show Peter was portrayed as a dumb guy who made mistakes but you could see just how much he cared for his family (Meg included) and always wanted to do right by them. Nowadays? They have dumbed him down and made him unbearable
7:28 What he said about the Simpsons having clear guidelines and restrictions I feel could have been applied to Family Guy if the show didn't get cancelled twice and had more constancy with staff when it was being developed.
I hate how Lois always cheats on people we but Peter never does something about it. Lois always makes up some lame excuse, like, “I only did it because you think I’m old!” (Peter made a minor comment about her grey hair) Lois is a lot more unfaithful in modern family guy, and that’s weird because normally you’d expect Peter to be the explosive husband and Lois (in earlier seasons) to be the type of wife that accepts the chaos without doing anything about it. Note- I didn’t realised how wrong this sounded until now.
@@magical571 now that you’ve mentioned it. I guess you’re right. I didn’t really think it through when writing this. I was focusing too much on the negatives.
My most hater moment for lois is when she becomes an anti vaxxer even though in another episode before she was trying to help a religous family that didnt believe in modern medicine.
I liked her breakdown in that Christmas episode. I think it's what a lot of moms feel like doing during the holidays. Source: my mom. She said the episode captured the frustrations really well.
Skylar was a great character and an absolute bad ass. it’s gross that anyone would compare her to Lois griffin. it was literal incels who started trashing her character even though she had every right to act the way she did. Her husband went from being a literal child she had to take care of to a dangerous drug kingpin. Yes she was too controlling in the beginning of the show, but couples counseling would have stopped all of that. I mean Walt never even communicates to her how he feels like a healthy couple is supposed to do. stop blaming her character for her sh*tty husband who literally ends up r*ping her
0:41 Okay so one, Roxanne is not a mom. Two, I can't believe how masaive BriBriCosplay is now. She came up on my tiktok the first thing when i joined in 2020. She lived in a tiny apartment had never even cosplayed in public and never done any revealing cosplay and now she's rolling in dough. And i didn't accomplish much in that time. Brb spiraling.
I think both Lois and Brian were the voice of reason for the show being able to pull the reigns when things got too far. Now, however, they too have become engrossed within the off the walls wacky shenanigans of the show so now there’s no one there to say no.
There's one particular word that you missed out on that definitely describes a key factor on what's wrong with modern Lois. In short, she became a Karen... Lois is an unhinged Karen that's bitchy and seems to hate her life and family.
really? to me a karen is more of an entitled woman treatring others badly, specially if they are percieved as having too little to do (kinda like a female, younger version of abe simpson, complaining to the shop clerks for anything) it has nothing to do with them hating their family, but what do i know. it means different things to different people.
Lois is a tragic character. Someone who was a grounded voice of reason and balance turned into an overbearing and destructive parent. It's sad when the deliberately written, toxic, and controlling Alana is a stronger parent and wife than Lois.
I honestly would be down to see them redo some modern episodes just to see how different things would be if the cast had their personalities in the classic episodes.
9:38 - The reason why you probably find this new episode premise most original and interesting is because the core of that idea is stolen. The premise is almost completely ripped from King of Queens (S1, EP18 I think, not sure) where one of the characters (Arthur) goes through the exact same thing with becoming obsessed with becoming the employee of the month at a Coffee Shop he doesn't work at.
i remember i saw someone say the difference between lois and peter and stan and francine is that lois and peter pretend they're good people and are worse off for it which makes them hard to watch and the humor fall flat but stan and francine know they're terrible selfish ppl which makes them (for the most part) fun to watch and fits the unhinged writing style. honestly most apt reading on the differences in the way the families in family guy and american dad are written.
@@travisrose3147 I liked how she actually said “I take abuse from everyone in those house but I’m not gonna take it from you” - actually called it out as abuse
I've been catching up with the newer seasons and I was actually surprised how much I liked the Lois episodes, including the coffee shop one, honestly thought it was one of her better ones in a while. I guess I like the whole take the housewife to her extremes direction more than others, but I do get that something about her was lost as the show went on and she lost that motherly spark.
i enjoy her losing that "motherly" spark, pretty tired of it on "adult" shows (no matter how shitty everything is, the mom has got to be grounded and loving, and no matter how much of an imbecile, the dad has got to have a heart of gold. come on...let them be the asses they are and express how frustrated they ar. i bet more than one viewer will apreciate the sincerity even if they are not part of the minority who comments on review channels)

Nowadays, if her character isn't a hyper-aggressive nag, it's being labeled "Quahog's whore" with the amount of times she cheated on Peter.
To be honest, I thought the title of “Quahog’s whore” belong to Bonnie
@@ismaelrizo7707eh not really, Bonnie has her love/hate relationship with Joe but they always have a better bond I guess.
Peter and Lois started out nice, only for them to turn her into a female Quagmire. Thirsty for any other man than Peter
@@mastertjt56 when you put like that, it kind of makes sense. I guess to me Bonnie was more like diet Lois. Since she hates Joe in the later seasons, literally cheating on him on multiple occasions and getting upset with him for cheating on her once. Not only that, she really plans on killing him.
@@mastertjt56 My pet theory is that Joe has a cuckold fetish
@@ismaelrizo7707 yeah pretty much, at least they still somewhat care for each other compared to the others
Lois's old voice was so sweet and motherly. In late season three it became more high pitched, which was less motherly but also had a nice charm which complemented her new personality. But they've made it incredibly gargle-y to the point where she sounds like an old lady in a failing marriage.
Oh wait
Moments with her old voice were also a lot funnier
Forty-something isn't old... is it?

Better than marge
Like the simpsons mums voice
In the beginning of the show, Lois was seen as the glue that held the family together, the more responsible one and the voice of reason against Peter, even offering words of wisdom to the rest of the family, with the exception of Stewie. There were times that she snapped due to the pressure and you understood why she did so and you couldn't blame her, with Peter or the one responsible for this apologizing at the end of the episode.
Now she is just as, if not more, reckless than Peter.
I feel like once they changed Lois character it threw the series off I think most comedy sitcoms need a voice of reason for the series if not it just becomes a silly sketch show
Good

@@jocelynsmyth6604 well see, in that case linda is on a more even level with bob, his same "league", that's why it works.
Ok
I was gonna mention that something I love that Bob's Burgers doesn't do that shockingly every other adult animated family show does is have a cheating episode. Or in the case of the Simpsons and Family Guy, MANY cheating episodes.
Bob and Linda love each other to the extreme and wouldn't give each other up for anything. The closest they got was the seaplane episode, but Linda headbutts the guy and calls him an idiot for trying to get with her. They are inseparable C:
Also Hank and Peggy.
A good example of Lois going overboard but it still being tame and fitting of the story is the Christmas episode when they ran out of paper towels .
That actually had a funny punchline and my childhood self used to imagine her swears replaced with the Spongebob dolphin noises in that scene
That was one of the funniest moments of all time…especially when Meg just pulls them out with a nonchalant, “Oh, here they are.”
Classic moment
@@TheKillerEmcee peak family guy
Literally one of my favourite family guy episodes of all time. OG Lois used to be so good!!!
I love how LS Mark uses the same intro for everytime he reviews a Family Guy character 😂😂
Im pretty sure it was just a gag for this video
I mean after all, he was a young kid, around 10 he wants to say, one of his favorite shows was the popular adult sitcom known as family guy. I think we all know that at this point, but it's nice seeing him make that clear in every Family Guy video.
I was kinda sad when he didn’t mention him “laughing, crying alongside them, rooting for them to succeed in whatever came their way”
@@bekfstman9841 but then… something changed…
Let’s not forget the Springtrap episode lol
“become a shell of her former self” is a term that can be used to describe every family guy character now
My thoughts on this can be summed up as:
Altough Francine Smith has canonically done much wose things, Id still trust her more to take care of my 1 year old niece than Lois.
all aspects of Lois Griffin are just made 4 times better by Francine with the twist that she actually cares for her family (she's also funny enough to have chemistry with all the family members, but that can be said by everyone in the Smith family)
Was going to say Francine Smith is better and what you said there about American Dad sums up why I'm still able to tolerate the Smith family and the show American Dad itself.
Somehow American Dad is just better after all this time. It does weird wacky humor better
@@somethingsuperbland8829 Precisely.
Its very obvious that Seth enjoys American Dad much more than Family Guy
@AnimeLover4Life3395 That's what I figure. I don't think American Dad is better and nor do I like it more than the other. Just that AD is the only one of the two shows I can still tolerate watching, so to speak.
That “hottest moms” list parody at the beginning was very 2008-2010ish, and I love it! I also love how one of the choices is Coral from Finding Nemo, and he just called her “fish” 😂
She do be a fish doe
Fish is a real one🥶😫🥵
Boutta make her water change colors 😏
I can't see the word "coral" without hearing Rick Grimes.

Family Guy has no "straight guy" any more. It used to be Lois, then it became Meg, and now they are both just like everyone else.
Brian was the straight guy early. Lois wasn't really a character at all smh
good. time to make someone else the "straight guy", stop it with linda marge louis etc.
@@TheMightofDabBrian used to be an actual character subverting expectations by being a pretty grounded character whilst also being a dog. But after a while Seth McFarland kept inserting himself into him where now he’s just a snobby alcoholic who just sees woman as objects. Just like Seth does internally.
It’s amazing that Francine is infinitely better written than Lois. When there’s a Francine episode It’s usually a good sign, when it’s a Lois episode you’re preparing to zone out.
Also Francine is hotter 🏄♂️

@heavensgate2245 *Nobody likes meg*
I totally agree with you on this. Lois (and the entire Family Guy cast, really) were better when they were more grounded. They were a dysfunctional family who still loved each other at the end of the day. The humour came from watching Peter do something stupid while Lois had to deal with him. At the end of the episode, it would all come together and was occasionally even heartwarming.
Now we get a bunch of non-sequiturs about Peter/Lois/etc. just being terrible. The writers forgot that being mean isn't funny in and of itself. When Sterling Archer is a jerk, I don't laugh because he's being a jerk; I laugh because either A) He's going to succeed and make everyone mad that he was right while he gloats like a kid, or B) he's going to have it backfire terribly and face the consequences of his actions hilariously. Lois and Peter don't get that; they just get to be jerks with no real punchline.
Great stuff as usual, Mark. Thanks for the video.
After finally finishing Archer yesterday, I kept thinking about it a lot during the points of the video. Mallory is my prime example of an complete asshole who is genuinely funny and also loves her son to death
One of my favorite early season episodes was the episode where Lois takes meg on spring break, it showed that she legitimately wanted to make meg happy but was flawed in the sense that she went way overboard with partying. It was a genuinely nice episodes in my opinion
@AquaBounce1010 Thanks sometimes when I'm quickly using auto fill or try to fix my grammar to quickly reply. I miss things like that & don't even realize it
@austin_bennett Your Welcome.
You can completely understand why Lois and Marge barely had any scenes together in the crossover
Lois is just the writers forgetting Bonnie existed and wrote her with the same personality and vices
Worse thing about Lois as mother is how she allows Peter to abuse Meg. Dude farts on her and #ShutUpMeg is a catchphrase now.
pretty realistic though, just saying lol. don't ever expect a parent in a disfunctional household to hold their partner accountable when they can just blame the kids and have them shut up. i don't know, i guess none of this stirs me up so much since it's pretty grounded in my opinion lol. this is exactly how this type of family would go downhill over time. Not to say the show is doing it on purpose or trying tio be realistic lol
@@magical571 How do you *NOT* hold a parent accountable for hurting their own children. Fuck you mean *lol* like this crappy show is a joke? Exactly why it's not funny anymore. Only commentary section edgelords like you sit up trying to 🧢 for child abuse. Goofy.
@@magical571Got a point. I've seen the dynamic between mothers and daughters when I dated and it's... It can get bad dude. Some moms seem like the hate their daughters or rather jealous of them. Like the arguments I've seen are horrific.

Lois has turned into a character that you wouldn't mind if Stewie killed because she's become that awful.

"Neptune: King of the Sea-An icon in ruins"
A Stewie Griffin video will be interesting though
Yes
cant wait for the jasper video
@@roobyrne3075he's the only family guy character that I actually like
One of my least favorite aspects of family guy is how completely unbearable the characters can be at times. Lois was one of the worst examples but I think Quagmire, Brian, or Peter may be a little worse in my opinion. She became an awful person toward the family and would lose her temper constantly, taking it out on them. Also the show has this bizarre mindset later on where they think sexualizing her, because she's a woman I guess, is meant to be like a joke or something but its never funny. That Simpsons jab is in my opinion, one of the most uncomfortable things I ever sat through.
Again though, her being awful to the family is just so infurating to watch. I get its the norm to have every character in an adult animated comedy to be an asshole, but seriously, all it does is ruin my investment cause every single character can just get away with anything. Those kind of jokes can be funny, but having each of the cast be a prick to accommodate for it all the time, just makes thing miserable.
Sorry for the tangent but I guess the subject of cartoon characters being irredeemable dickheads is a subject I'm very passionate about.
Dang, a lot of GoAnimate videos suffer a similar problem but worse...
I always thought that meanness is not automatically funny. People who make shows like this think they can just say or do something mean and then expect the viewer to laugh.
@@roberttreacy8271It feels like funny=mean when the fun part is either when they're actually making a joke or when they get their just desserts in the end. Very few people watch Eric Cartman be an asshole because that in of itself is funny. They watch him because of the way he goes about it or when he suffers the consequences of his actions.
Yeah Quagmire was made into a hyper-rapist and has this weird feud with Brian, who himself is obnoxious and taking lots of screentime. It's said that Family Guy devolved into the Stewie & Brian show and Brian is clearly inferior to Stewie in every way.
@roberttreacy8271 Yup Peter is a jerk. Brian is a jerk. Lois is a jerk. Quagmire is a jerk. Stewie I guess you could also put in the category although funnily enough he became less of a jerk over time despite originally being intended to stand out as the "bad" one.
Its not Just Peter and Lois that I hate I just hate parents in animation in general I'm so sick and tired of animation especially adult animation protraying families as dysfunctional it has honestly made me appreciate shows like Bob's Burgers, Amphibia, and The Owl House that protray loving, happy, and healthy family dynamics.
I can agree. I wish these shows would give us a reason to love these characters, but they don't. Dysfunctional can be done right, but frankly its a little overdone in adult animation shows. That being said, I don't think a lot of writers for these shows realize how funny loving families can be. I always loved how down bad Hal was for Lois, even tho it's not animation
king of the hill is a good example of a more realistic family, similarly with s1-s9 or s10 simpsons
@SporianSummit both King of the Hill and Bob's Burgers are some of the best representions of a traditional loving, happy, and healthy families and ten times better than Modern Simpson, Family Guy, and American Dad.
@@tylerbertram7065 I think modern Simpsons has gotten back to being a nicer family portrayal, but it was slipping off the rails for a while. Still, it never got anywhere NEAR what Family Guy has become.
@Marbles471 I will admit I haven't been keeping up with the Simpsons occasionally they make a good episode but more often than not modern Simpsons makes a really bad episode.
Season 1-3 Lois Griffin was Prime Lois that EVERYONE loved!
I’m convinced that Mark took one look at his poll, saw that Lois had the most votes at first, and told his editor to work on it, even though a majority of us voted for Stewie.

It’s weird that she went from sweet and caring, to becoming a sociopath, mean spirited and cruel to everyone. Including her own family. She could’ve been the voice of reasons to her family’s dilemma, but nope.
They’re afraid that she’ll be too much like Marge Simpson, so decided to turn into this cruel and abusive person. This is the reason why this series is going down hill.
well, i like that. honestly i love the simpsons, but marge infuriates me since she resembles what a wife in an abusive relationship looks like.Having to rely in old memories of infatuation, out right saying "as long as you fill up the fuel tank i'm good with you homer", pretty clearly being there because of three accidents called children, and of course she loves them (i mean, that's what expected of her and very few media will go to the place of, what if she doesn't though? what if she is doing what she can and coping?) Being expected to always be grounded, sweet and collected, forgive his husband's several affairs, fix everything for everyone, and not even the episodes were she is suppossed to either get a vacation or just break under pressure give her real space or gratitude from others. Just a, "oh, but marge, we can't have you like this, the family doesn0t work without you" great awesome now go back to your miserable life as a mid class housewife. "haha nobody here can wipe their own ass, you gotta be an overworked housewife so funny and endearing". Let the wife beat the shit out their relatives for once, honestly.

I don't watch Family Guy, but these videos are super informative for someone who doesn't watch. Good Video!
I’ve always seen Louis as a woman struggling with identity. A girl from a rich family marries a normal man to then embark on a normal life while yet trying to hold onto her previous life. She’s also a really amazing portrayal a mother with severe postpartum depression after Stewies birth.
I miss when it felt like she genuinely cared about her kids’ well-being, especially Meg’s. Now she just treats all of them like trash. It’s sad.

4:13- "You're never gonna get a Simpsons episode where Homer decks Marge in the jaw."
Dark Simpsons would like a word with you!
I think modern Family guy fell into this new theme, "everyone is just a different flavour of horrible person, point and laugh"
Lois rivals Brian and Peter when it comes to the most flanderized Family Guy characters.
One cartoon mom I really like other than Marge Simpson is Linda from Bob’s Burgers, she’s hilarious and relatable and loves her family!
marge infuriates me. she embodies so much of what's wrong with stay at home moms in mid income households, yet the show expects you to find it endearing, when really she is just coping and doing what she can. and i say this as someone whoi loves the simpsons, but luckily they don't focus too much on her (would get really depressing and frustrating really fast. there's a reason the episodes focused on her tend to do worse than the rest)
Lois isn’t as bad as Brian, but I did really like her in older seasons. It was funny to watch her barely contain her wholesome mom facade under layers of (justified) frustration and rage. Lois going on a rampage because Meg couldn’t find paper towels will ALWAYS be better than Lois verbally and physically abusing her family
Same thing happened to Peter in the beginning of the show Peter was portrayed as a dumb guy who made mistakes but you could see just how much he cared for his family (Meg included) and always wanted to do right by them. Nowadays? They have dumbed him down and made him unbearable
Probably my favorite one is the mom from The Oblongs. She is genuinely such a great and funny character
My favourite thing about her is that she's genuinely a dysfunctional trainwreck, but at the same time a super warm and loving parent 💀
I miss that show,.wish that they would have continued it 😭
7:28 What he said about the Simpsons having clear guidelines and restrictions I feel could have been applied to Family Guy if the show didn't get cancelled twice and had more constancy with staff when it was being developed.
I hate how Lois always cheats on people we but Peter never does something about it. Lois always makes up some lame excuse, like, “I only did it because you think I’m old!” (Peter made a minor comment about her grey hair) Lois is a lot more unfaithful in modern family guy, and that’s weird because normally you’d expect Peter to be the explosive husband and Lois (in earlier seasons) to be the type of wife that accepts the chaos without doing anything about it. Note- I didn’t realised how wrong this sounded until now.
so...her accepting it in the earlier seasons and peter being explosive was ok?...but once it turns it's suddenly not acceptable?
@@magical571 now that you’ve mentioned it. I guess you’re right. I didn’t really think it through when writing this. I was focusing too much on the negatives.
My most hater moment for lois is when she becomes an anti vaxxer even though in another episode before she was trying to help a religous family that didnt believe in modern medicine.
I liked her breakdown in that Christmas episode. I think it's what a lot of moms feel like doing during the holidays. Source: my mom. She said the episode captured the frustrations really well.
Hey Lois, this is like that one time when we ruined your character
Lois Griffin is the Skyler White of cartoon. I'm not despising the ladder character. Let alone the unfortunate actress of Breaking Bad.
But Skylar actually worries and cares for her family and wants her children to avoid the life Walt brought to their house

@@piss7610 True, I meant that she's as despised as Skyler. But for Louis, it's for justifiable reasons.

Skylar was a great character and an absolute bad ass. it’s gross that anyone would compare her to Lois griffin. it was literal incels who started trashing her character even though she had every right to act the way she did. Her husband went from being a literal child she had to take care of to a dangerous drug kingpin. Yes she was too controlling in the beginning of the show, but couples counseling would have stopped all of that. I mean Walt never even communicates to her how he feels like a healthy couple is supposed to do. stop blaming her character for her sh*tty husband who literally ends up r*ping her

I honestly would be down to see them redo some modern episodes just to see how different things would be if the cast had their personalities in the classic episodes.
9:38 - The reason why you probably find this new episode premise most original and interesting is because the core of that idea is stolen.
The premise is almost completely ripped from King of Queens (S1, EP18 I think, not sure) where one of the characters (Arthur) goes through the exact same thing with becoming obsessed with becoming the employee of the month at a Coffee Shop he doesn't work at.
Holy shit, that's so shameless 💀
i remember i saw someone say the difference between lois and peter and stan and francine is that lois and peter pretend they're good people and are worse off for it which makes them hard to watch and the humor fall flat but stan and francine know they're terrible selfish ppl which makes them (for the most part) fun to watch and fits the unhinged writing style. honestly most apt reading on the differences in the way the families in family guy and american dad are written.
