Reviews by Pancho @ "Family Guy and Freud: Jokes and Their Relation To the Unconscious" by Antonia Peacocke

👪Family Guy and Freud: Jokes and Their Relation To the Unconscious 👪


The passage “Family guy and Freud”, written by Ms. Peacocke, explains that there is more to the fox television show Family guy rather than just crude humor and comedy insults towards people in real life. From reading this passage, I can see why the author would think that Family guy holds Sigmund Freud logic.



The “Freudian Slip” can best explain episodes from the TV show, for example, the “PTV” playwright found in the passage (pg. 303- 304). This is one point that I agree with the most because, even though they use Stewie and an Oprah book to explain the following of trends, it still resembles what most of us do today with celebrity idols.


The fact that Stewie was mindlessly going to read another of Oprah’s books without him even knowing it shows all there is to us trying to be like the ones we see on television. Whatever a rapper might wear in their music video, whether it is clothing or a certain shoe, the general public strives to obtain the exact the same material over a period of time.


Ms. Peacocke definitely made this writing piece strong through inserting actual playwright scripts from the television show to emphasize her argument on the show and what lies beneath it.

Nike's Influence on the Conformation of Society

              There are many products of today that people tend to buy in order to “conform” themselves with the rest of society. Whether it’s the lower class, middle class, or upper class, there is always one product that strikes the mind of individuals. The product that I decided to focus this study on is NBA Nike brand shoes. Nike brand shoes can apply to all people but are most commonly found amongst the younger crowd of today. The other large competing brand, Air Jordan, resembles the exact same level of demand as Nike. There are multiple reasons why Nike appeals to the younger generation of today. The company is known highly for its inner connection with super sport athletes everywhere. Almost every commercial that Nike airs on television includes a well-known athlete wearing the clothing or shoes. From Basketball and Football to Soccer and Baseball, Nike always finds a way to make a name for themselves in every sport. This wou...

Nike Personified

Th ere are brands advertised to people every day, with more being thought up of every minute. With each brand advertised, there are multiple people who become attached to a certain brand, thus forming a sense of brand loyalty. I’ve come across a lot of brands in my life , tending to direct my loyalty towards a select few. However, there is a dominant brand that I have come to really affiliate myself with, “Nike” . According to the website of Nike, “Nike, Inc. is an American multinational corporation that is engaged in the design, development, manufacturing and worldwide marketing and sales of footwear, apparel, equipment, accessories, and services”. With that being said, I feel like if this brand were to ever “ come to life ” , it would be more than just a single person. If the brand “Nike” ever came to life as a person, it would be in the form s of a man, a woman, a boy , and a girl, creating a Ni ke family. I feel that this is the appropriate incarnation to giv e the bra...
