Examines the differences in language use in father-son/daughter discourses in the animated series Family Guy. Applies a corpus-based analysis of the series’ scripts from seven episodes from 1998-2005, focusing on a direct and detailed linguistic comparison between the father’s predominant language use directed towards his son contrasted with his daughter. This paper would be useful for those interesting in how animated series portray the differences in gendered familial interactions.
