Family Guy And Spongebob

The average American child watches 20 hours of television per week, that is 5,000 hours before first grade. Most children between the ages of 3-6 years old can even turn on the television and start a DVD by themselves. I am guilty of allowing my children more TV time then they should have, but I guess that is because I enjoy watching it myself. There are many hidden messages in children’s shows that I was oblivious to until now. For instance, in the show “Rugrats” Charlotte Pickles, Angelica’s mom never had time for her, always on the phone and working. Ethnic stereotyping is another message sent in Speedy Gonzalez’s cousin Slow Poke Rodriguez which is lazy, slow, and dim witted. Morality is also affected by these shows. Most every little boy

Family guy is a dysfunctional family that lives in Quahog, Rhode Island. The parents: Peter and Lois. The children: the oldest, Meg, the middle child, Chris and the baby is Stewie. Last but not least, the dog Brian. This TV show exhibits crude, adult humour. There are many different opinions on this show, many parents are ok with letting there children watch it and other refuse to do so because of the kind of humour some parents are on edge. So is family guy a negative influence on children? I believe it does have a negative influence on kids. To start the language they use, secondly the violence and actions towards each other and

Both Disney and Nickelodeon have faced problems with ratings in the last couple of years due to things like Netflix and a drop-in content. People have the freedom to watch cartoons on demand and do not have to wait until they play on television anymore. Were Disney channel has come on top when it comes to this is the fact that they limit the content that they have allowed to be on these streaming sites. All the current and past episodes of SpongeBob can be accessed on Hulu. Where are Disney’s more successful shows like Wizards of Waverly Place and That’s So raven cannot. This is where Disney has come ahead when it comes to ratings. Viewers can only find the content that the they want for the most part by watching Disney channel. Now that I

The character in the short stories who is worthy of admiration is Trish, Mrs. Jones, and Andy. In Babysitting Helen, Trish shows many actions that come across as caring, when she is babysitting Helen. Trish demonstrates her caring attributes when she hears a loud noise a rushes to her side: “Helen, it’s time to come down now. Trish’s heart had stopped beating, but from her mouth came trying-to-reason-with-a-three-year-old voice. “Take my hands, I’ll help you”.

In order to explore the representation of “Southern” culture in television, I am comparing and contrasting two popular television shows: Duck Dynasty and Tyler Perry’s House of Payne. Both shows attempt of portraying Southern families and their beliefs, traditions, pastimes and everyday obstacles. Although House of Payne is a sitcom and Duck Dynasty is a reality television show, the two television shows share many similarities in their representation of “Southern” culture. House of Payne may be scripted, but Tyler Perry bases his writing and the show’s plot on the very real lives of families living in Atlanta and also on his personal experiences.

Television has been keeping me entertained for as long as I can remember. I have always been a big fan of watching television such as shows, movies, and especially sports. For movies and shows, I love how it forces me to make me use my imagination even though in the back of my mind I know that everything that’s happening is completely fake. It’s caused me to think deeper about things I never thought I would think about, and given me a lot of great memories. Even though television has been a very positive part of my life, there has also been some downside to it as well. Television has affected me in a negative way because it paints a picture reality that sort of tricked me into thinking it was true. When I was younger I was extremely gullible and easily influenced and really wanted to be able to live like some of the characters that I saw on the screen. An example was in about 7th grade I started watching this hilarious show called How I Met Your Mother. My parents refused to let me watch it but I would always find a way to watch it on my laptop without them knowing. There was this character name Barney Stinson who I really admired and was determined to be like when I grew up. In the show he was rich, well dressed, ladies man who seemed to have everything going for him. He was a total hound dog in the show who expressed the joy of constantly going to bars, sleeping with random women, and then never calling

Now, cartoons are known for their creativity of thinking outside the box. They create a new world where the fictional character can live and interact with other characters. There, they are meant to overcome some obstacle that can help the character become better at a skill and/or person. In this show the character seems to actually underdeveloped than developed. There are episodes in which the main character is taking his driver’s test and always end up failing.

The 90’s was an era full of amazing television series and animation shows that depicted a wide range of characters from a decent assortment of diverse backgrounds for the time. One of my favorite shows was the series Rugrats and it has some of the most memorable and recognizable characters on the planet. For this case study, I want to discuss Chuckie Finster. Chuckie is best known for being Tommy Pickles’ best friend, his crazy red hair, his big purple glasses, and for being the skittish older friend of the bunch who was always unsure of the world around them. Initially, this paper will focus on his reluctant and meticulous nature, then a deep analysis of Chuckie and his underlying problems will better help in attempting to find viable treatments that would potentially help Chuckie in the long term.

When I was in middle school, I first discovered Family Guy late at night while I was channel surfing in my hotel room. Usually, cartoons are never shown at night, simply because most kids are asleep by that time. I didn’t find anything decent, until I saw this cartoon. I figured it was for children, but I after I saw the theme song, I second guessed that. I continued to watch the show and even though it clearly had adult humor, I still continued to watch it, because I found it hilarious.

The first cartoons I like is Rug Rat’s because it was funny to watch when I was a little baby and the mom and dad had one daughter and two sons that they were good. The older the is Angelica, she is so mean to her brothers like when they need help with something she like no you could do it by yourself.so the two brothers is like well I am telling Mom and dad that Angelica is begin mean to us because all I asked her to do is just help me tie my shoes and my shirt to put on and her word is all of the time is no.

I must admit that although I was not an indoors type of kid, the opening line of the show, “Are you ready, kids?” always drew me to the living room like a magnet; even as a college freshman, I never bypass the television when my favorite show, SpongeBob Squarepants, is on. I am not merely attracted to the show because of the character’s infectious humor but because of the numerous life lessons it has to offer; besides teaching me a billion ways to be an annoying neighbor, SpongeBob has taught me innumerable life values of overriding significance. The most notable attitude of SpongeBob is his irrepressible and inextinguishable optimism. The adorable yellow sponge seems to be oblivious to the dark side of everything and only sees the bright and positive sides to things and everyone, including his pompous and grumpy neighbor, Squidward Tentacles.

It also saddens me that there is barely any virtue left in the media for the youth that is considered tasteful. Gratuitous ones like kings of hill, South Park, family guy, etc, replaced more than half of the cartoons that were considered beneficial and good mannered for the young audience.

Social media is capable of portraying many different things. American culture is one of the most accurately portrayed aspects in social media and television shows are one of the most frequently used social media tools to showcase American culture. In shows like American Dad!, Family Guy, and The Big Bang Theory, American culture is reflected through the topics of patriotism, family, unity, diversity, and equality. In the television show American Dad!, written by Seth MacFarlane, patriotism of a typical American father is accurately portrayed.

The villian I have chose is from the TV show Spongebob and the name of the villian is Plankton. Plankton is a microscopic organism with antennas and is Spongebob and Mr. Krab's arch enemy. Plankton is a super villian who is ruthless and has the mindset of stealing the Krabby Patty Formula. The Krusty Krab is owned by Mr Krabs and the employees are Squidward and Spongebob. Plankton owns the Chum Bucket which no one ever visits because the food is terrible and he wants to steal the formula so he can have money and successful food.

As a kid I grew up with the television with my brother and sister which made us closing because it was something we can all bond over and agree on by watching shows from Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, and Disney Channel. I hated to wake up early, however the anticipation during the weekend due to new episodes and many hours of binge watching made myself excited and amused. One particular show that was premiered on Cartoon Network for kids that I still question was Courage the Cowardly Dog. A saturday morning I would do my daily elementary school weekend routine by turning on my favorite network station which was Cartoon Network. Courage the Cowardly Dog was on and I would usually watch Courage with my older brother since I was quite frightened
