Chaturbate Receives ‘Family Guy’ Mention

LOS ANGELES — “Family Guy,” the Fox TV show that never shies away from lampooning American culture, tackled the TV trope of the Canadian girlfriend and gave a shoutout to Chaturbate in the process. In “Girlfriend, Eh?”—the 18th episode of the 20th season of “Family Guy”—father Peter and son Chris travel to Canada to prove that the girlfriend Chris met at summer camp is indeed real. The episode kicks off with Cris returning home and sharing his good news about his new relationship, and at 3:17 into the show, Chris excuses himself from a conversation with his father, saying he has a “Chaturbate date with my love.” View the show clip here. “We know people of all types from all over are fans of Chaturbate and our broadcasters, so it’s fun to learn at least a few writers of ‘Family Guy’ are, too,” said Chaturbate COO Shirley Lara. The full episode can be viewed for Free on Fox, or with a subscription on Hulu Plus. Find all available viewing options at TVGuide.com. The mention isn’t the only time Chaturbate has been referenced by a mainstream comedy show aimed at adults: “Saturday Night Live” once aired a skit about a law enforcement team trying to negotiate a date with a sexy European spy before their video feed is interrupted by two women trying to earn tips from their fans. Though the company wasn’t mentioned by name in the skit, the logo and design of the comedic video feed resembled the look of Chaturbate. “Family Guy" centers around the Griffins—parents Lois and Peter; their children Meg, Chris and Stewie; and their anthropomorphic dog Brian—and their lives in the fictional city of Quahog, Rhode Island.
