Why Carol Burnett Sued Family Guy (& What Happened Next); ScreenRant, July 25, 2023

MATTHEW MOORE, ScreenRant; Why Carol Burnett Sued Family Guy (& What Happened Next)

"Carol Burnett sued Family Guy for portraying her iconic sketch series without permission, wanting to protect her comedy legacy. 

The lawsuit stemmed from an episode where Peter jokes about Burnett working as a janitor, using her famous character the Charwoman. 

The lawsuit was dismissed, with the judge ruling that Family Guy had the right to create parodies, maintaining the reputation of both parties."
