The parody was inspired by Snoop’s recent move to network television, where he is set to star as the father in an upcoming [NBC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scentbird-x-grosse-pointe-garden-society-collection) sitcom. The rapper anticipates his career will turn back towards television and film with this move, and though he insists his acting skills are no laughing matter, we can only imagine the laughs the D.O.Double G will bring to the small screen. The photoshop parody plays on this laughter by allowing audiences to invision Snoop as a lead character in families from the Cosbys to the Seavers, Romanos and Television’s most popular Modern Family. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Humor](https://www.trendhunter.com/humor) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Rap Icon Parodies:** Opportunity to create more TV parodies featuring popular rap artists like Snoop Dogg in iconic TV shows. - **Celebrity Sitcom Star Casting:** Opportunity for networks to cast celebrities in iconic sitcom roles for entertainment and laughs. - **Rapper Acting Crossovers:** Increased interest in rap artists crossing over into TV and film acting roles. ### Where This Applies - **Entertainment Industry:** Opportunity for production companies to create more sitcoms and parodies with popular celebrities and icons. - **Music Industry:** Opportunity for record labels and management companies to expand their artists' careers into acting roles and cross-industry collaborations. - **Television Industry:** Opportunity for networks to create more diverse and unique programming by casting unexpected celebrities in iconic sitcom roles. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Rapper-Backed Cereals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/broadus-foods-snoop-cereal-brand.md) - [Rapper-Branded QSR Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snoopadelic-shake.md) - [Rapper-Backed Video Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snoops-high-rollers.md) - [Rapper-Endorsed Flame Stove Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blunt-marketing-campaign.md) - [Rapper-Approved Functional Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snoop-dogg-3.md) - [Rapper-Backed Apparel Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ovo-5.md) - [THC-Infused Snack Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snazzle-os.md) - [Rapper-Backed RTD Cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snoop-dogg-2.md) - [Rapper-Honoring Cannabis Strains](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/death-row-records-cannabis.md)
