Seth McFarlane finally sets the record straight on 'it insists upon itself'
In a season 4 episiode of Family Guy, as a panic room begins filling up with water, Peter Griffin makes a death bed confession: He “did not care” for The Godfather . His family loses it and an inane argument about the iconic film ensues, eventually leading Peter to utter the enigmatic and now memed-to-death line, “It insists upon itself.” Nearly two decades later, the show’s creator, Seth McFarlane, finally explains what it means.
Family Guy superfans have been trying to decipher a deeper meaning for years, with discussions perennially sprouting up on forums, subreddits, and social media. Sometimes the phrase just starts trending as users riff while passing idle moments gazing at their phones. Even now, people still maintain that Peter was on to something and they know exactly what he meant. “This is why I did not like Jackson’s Lord of the Rings,” one person responded.
