Peters Going Insane Theory (2024)

FAQs

What is Peter Family Guy theory? ›

The theory suggests that Peter is in a mental institution due to the death of his entire family and that the events of the show all take place within his head.

In the season 4 episode "Petarded", Peter discovered his low intellect falls slightly below the level for intellectual disability after taking an I.Q. test, which places his I.Q. at around 70.

The theory posits that the events of “Family Guy” are merely Stewie's perception of the world. Peter and Chris act goofy and childish towards Stewie, so Stewie thinks they're stupid buffoons. Lois is the strict disciplinarian, so Stewie sees her as shrewd and humorless.

Given his short attention span, as well as his erratic and frequently inappropriate behavior, it is conceivable that Peter suffers from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD. Peter also has a habit of proving his masculinity, not wanting Lois to fall for another man.

Family Guy faced multiple cancelation attempts prompted by time-slot changes and tough competition that hindered the show's ratings. Unprecedented DVD sales and a boost in viewership during Family Guy's reruns on Adult Swim helped the show secure a loyal cult following.
