eltls-1976	Ocasio-Russe, Lizbette	Purpose and Innovation in Family Guy’s Musical Numbers	2019	10	.pdf	application/pdf	4825	203	51	Parker and Stone and Groening have not created musical numbers that match MacFarlane’s in terms of their attention to musical detail; while critically acclaimed, their numbers’ composition and choreography are not as meticulously crafted as MacFarlane’s and rarely show any kind of reverence for the traditional film musical as part of their satire. While many criticize the controversial approach and seeming arbitrary nature of not just the show’s jokes, but its musical numbers, the way MacFarlane integrates musical numbers into his animated series allows todays cynical audience to enjoy a taste of the long-dormant genre.	cache/eltls-1976.pdf	txt/eltls-1976.txt
