With the Satanic Panic, several serial killers on the loose and the Cold War hottest than ever the 80s were a wild time but not necessarily bad.

I remember Family Guy. It first aired on Fox back in January 1987 and had three successful seasons till 1991. Taking inspiration from skit shows, Family Guy focused on cutaway humor which was very new at the time. The show was also known for pushing the envelope with it’s humor. Poking fun at celebrities, pop culture and even religion. Family Guy garnered as much complain from viewers as it did praise. Unfortunately Fox pulled the plug after the 3rd season in 1991. Though we did get the 1999 movie. The movie was a mixed bag among fans. Some still love it to this day while others complained how over the top the characters became. Today younger generations just see it as another generic 80s sitcom. But to us who grew up with it, we won’t forget how different and raunchy the show was for back in the day.

[@randoedits6906]

@ 00:40 Is seriously EXACTLY one of those cute pics a wife takes when a dad and baby make the same look. It's so heartwarming. It makes it seem like a real photo of a father and son, and then I realize that peter has 7 fingers and 2 thumbs. Ai is really starting to creep me out with how much it understands now. An ai 100% would be able to hurt us so unimaginably efficiently without even touching us. Legit kinda sad this isn't a real picture because that's how cute it is. Stewie looks so damn cute!

And Meg would still be bullied at school. But her friends and family would actually comfort her and stand up for her. Peter would still be goofy and care free externally. But that would turn out to ultimately be an act, a defense mechanism to stop people from inquiring into how he really feels because he doesn't like how he turned out (fat and dumb) and it would tear him up inside that his son Chris turned out just like him. Chris would still be horny. But he would also be broken up about his weight and poor academic performance. Carter Pewterschidt would still be a rich jerk who looks down on Peter because he thinks that Peter isn't good enough for Lois. But Carter would be too ashamed to ever say that out loud, because he would think that Lois ended up with Peter because Carter never took the time to show Lois that he cares about her. Lois would still be a home maker. But, because she is from an upper class background, she would be very articulate and educated. But she would also be spoiled. So she didn't really know what it was like to be poor or live with the health consequences of obesity before she met Peter. Peter grew up in a working class Irish-American Catholic background. So he likes Lois not just because she is physically attractive, but also because she introduced him to things that he didn't know about except from movies and TV before he met her. Lois would like Peter because he showed her a level of warmth and attention that she never got from her mom and dad.

I mean, you can definitely still tell it’s AI generated. It works great conceptually, but not literally. It’s a great tool for inspiration and reference, but it’s still got a long ways to go to escape the uncanny valley. The real question is how quickly will it evolve until it can create something truly indistinguishable from reality. The powers that be likely have that sort of technology already, but at a consumer level it needs a lot of work yet.
