Carrot Top Didn't Love His Most Iconic Line From Family Guy

During his appearance on "The Joe Rogan Experience" (via YouTube), Carrot Top gave listeners a look into his creative process and his various inspirations over the years. It's a surprisingly serious conversation for someone whose work is as silly as Carrot Top's, and during the conversation about his "Family Guy" cameo, you can see that he does take his work in prop comedy seriously, to the point of resenting his work being misrepresented on the show.

"They sent me the script," recalled Carrot Top, and when the comedian saw the See-Saw gag, he objected, telling "Family Show" creator Seth MacFarlane that it didn't fit what his material was actually like. "But See Saw is really...stupid," Carrot Top remembers telling MacFarlane, only to find out that it was MacFarlane himself that wrote the gag (with the intention of it being "stupid," but still!). Unfortunately, even if MacFarlane had wanted to use an actual Carrot Top prop for the joke, the animation on the sequence was already completed, leaving Carrot Top in the position of either doing the joke or having himself voiced by another actor.

"I still to this day get [people on the street shouting] "See Saw!," says Carrot Top, so even if he wasn't crazy about the gag, he is forced to acknowledge its popularity. It doesn't seem like he will add it to his act any time soon, though.
