Family Guy, figurines, and more

Nothing screams quality television like cartoon characters that dress like prostitutes and have been translated into plastic figurines. For once, The American Polis is not being sarcastic. Family Guy is unquestionably the most insightful observer of American popular culture and its failings, and the apparent availability of the afore-mentioned figurines on amazon.com only furthers TAP's belief that we should supplant that Sesame Street drivel with more "smart" shows like Family Guy to stretch the minds of tomorrow's leaders. When jokes about matricide and dogs drinking martinis finally take their place ahead of a show brought to you by the letter "z," then, and only then, can Americans hope to be prepared for a new century of descending to previously unthinkable smart lows. Despite the threat of tawdriness, The American Polis still TIVOs every episode.

Update: Yes, TAP changed the photo with this entry since apparently the photograph of a "Peter Griffin callgirl" figurine was not easy to identify as such for readers. The American Polis hopes all is now clear.
