Family Guy is the cornerstone of sophisticated literature in my nation. The sheer concept of banning such fine art is blasphemy.
I've met some cool, intelligent, open-minded people here on NS. Unfortunately, that's only about 5% of NS's userbase.

Family Guy, South Park, My little pony: friendship is magic,and the Simpsons are banned, because the Saint Censorship find it dangerous to the national moral. Also, all fans are hunted down by the Saint Hugo Inquisition.

But this is just the 3% of the people, most of the baragians hate all of these cartoons.

Neither Crown nor Parliament could be bothered with regulating such vulgar forms of entertainment. We have plays and bear-baitings to attend. :p

Family Guy is a moderately popular television show in Afalia. It is shown on ABC4 on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. It is definitely not banned.

The only TV shows we ban are the unpopular ones, and even then they are not banned
Kalaspia-Shimarata's flag represents the Union between K&S. The dark blue represents the sea and the light blue represents the sky. In Kalashi language considers light blue and dark blue to be different colours. England colonised, and unified K&S, between 1774 and 1953, and English, light blue and dark blue are considered to be the same colour. Therefore, the contrast between dark blue and light blue represents the union, but the differences between K&S where as blue being two but simultaneously one colour represents K&S being two, but simultaniously one entity. The opposite to the symmetry represents the unity and indipendance of K&S, whilst also representing the Kalashi culture of opposite symmetry.KS is 75% Christian, hence the cross.

Family Guy never came into being in this timeline, instead the puny humans created Family Gurl, a show based on good morals towards righteous lesbians.

It was not banned, but also not shown in television until the Trololo-guy appeared. The king laughed so hard that he asked a local TV station to send it. Since then it's quite popular.

No, it's not banned, but a lot of people here despise it as an outlet for the writer's mocking irreverent messages on certain topics.

It isn't banned, however it is nowhere to be seen on traditionnal tv, because no one puts it on air (It's seen by most as a very bad attempt at satirical comedy, obviously driven by a will to make money-which doesn't even exist)

Family Guy is banned in the ISEK, because it isn't as funny in German or any of the other languages spoken here. Also, talking Dogs are Satanic. The Government instead urges citizens to view South Park, as it is much funnier in all languages.

No. Family Guy is a very popular show in our country due to its ability to take each joke to the furthest point possible without technically breaking the rules.
