    Storyline

    Edit
    Sick, twisted and politically incorrect, the animated series features the adventures of the Griffin family. Endearingly ignorant Peter and his stay-at-home wife Lois reside in Quahog, R.I., and have three kids. Meg, the eldest child, is a social outcast, and teenage Chris is awkward and clueless when it comes to the opposite sex. The youngest, Stewie, is a genius baby bent on killing his mother and destroying the world. The talking dog, Brian, keeps Stewie in check while sipping martinis and sorting through his own life issues. —Jwelch5742

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Seth MacFarlane based the voice of Peter Griffin on a security guard he knew while going to college.
    • Goofs
      The final screen of end credits for each episode contains a standard disclaimer about all characters being fictitious. In the second season episodes, this is misspelled "ficticious".
    • Quotes

      Peter Griffin: Brian, there's a message in my Alpha Bits. It says "OOOOOO".

      Brian Griffin: Peter, those are Cheerios.

    • Crazy credits
      In the new HD seasons intro, the generic dancers on the stairs are replaced by actual characters from the show.
    • Alternate versions
      Some episodes air in a somewhat-edited version in their original FOX airings and syndicated airings, but air in a racier, "uncut" version on Adult Swim, with some extra scenes or alternate versions of scenes. However, Adult Swim still bleeps the most profane of language.

    Outrageous humour
    The humour of this cartoon is outrageous in its own unique way. Compared to The Simpsons it is less coherent and compared to South Park it is more juvenile. Family Guy has a very distinct and memorable style that relies on constant cutaways to keep things fresh.

    • Do family and non-family members hear Stewie?
    • Why are the DVDs marketed differently outside of the U.S.?
