They're going after a Fox 'toon again.

Having already complained about an episode of “Family Guy,” in which a stripper gives a lap dance to a male character, the Parents Television Council now is urging its members to complain to the Federal Communications Commission about last Sunday’s “American Dad.”

The episode featured a character with an injured arm, telling another he is going to have to help take care of their race horse.

The episode, as quoted by the PTC: “You're gonna have to do the horse chores ... You have to brush the horse's coat and mane, water and feed it, then give it a full release. You know, give it a happy photo finish. Take the glue out of the factory. Spank his front butt. Grant him a bone loan!”

The dialogue is followed by a scene of the horse ejaculating.

PTC President Tim Winter in a statement, expressed shock at the scenes.

 “A broadcast television network aired an animated program on a Sunday evening when children were in the audience, and the program featured a man masturbating a horse. Up until now, I never imagined that those exact words could ever be spoken in that particular order. But sadly, here we are,” he said.

A Fox spokesman declined comment.
