Family Guy, a show famous for its many references to popular culture has added Chaturbate to its long list of sly asides, knowing nods and inside-joke hat tips. Family Guy gave Chaturbate its shoutout in the context of tackling the “Canadian girlfriend” TV trope.
In the 18th episode of the 20th season of the long-running Fox comedy series, titled “Girlfriend, Eh?”, father Peter and son Chris travel to Canada to prove that the girlfriend Chris met at summer camp is indeed real. The episode kicks off with Chris returning home and sharing his good news about his new relationship, and at 3:17 into the show, Chris excuses himself from a conversation with his father, saying he has a “Chaturbate date with my love.”
Chaturbate tweeted out a clip of the moment:

The full episode can be viewed for Free on FOX, or with a subscription on Hulu Plus.
“We know people of all types from all over are fans of Chaturbate and our broadcasters, so it’s fun to learn at least a few writers of Family Guy are too,” said Chaturbate COO Shirley Lara.
In a press release, Chaturbate noted that the Family Guy mention “isn’t the only time Chaturbate has been referenced by a mainstream comedy show aimed at adults.”
“Saturday Night Live once aired a skit about a law enforcement team trying to negotiate a date with a sexy European spy before their video feed is interrupted by two women trying to earn tips from their fans,” the company said in its release, observing that while the company wasn’t named in the skit, the “logo and design of the comedic video feed resembled the look of Chaturbate.”
