family guy

Family Guy is part of a resurgence of animation in prime time broadcast television. The writers rely on broad humor and biting satire to thumb their noses at popular culture.

This cartoon series follows the (mis)adventures of the Griffin family. Father Peter is a buffoon, responsible for many of the problems faced in each episode. Lois is a stay-at-home mom. While she is usually the voice of reason, her advice is rarely heeded. The eldest child is daughter Meg, often the butt of jokes involving her lack of popularity. Son Chris is similar to his father, good natured but not the sharpest pencil in the box. Stewie is the youngest child and every parent's nightmare as a typical villian, albeit in diapers. Adult in his language and mannerisms, he rejoices in his superiority to everyone else. The family is rounded out by a martini-drinking, cigarette-smoking dog named Brian. Walking upright, many of his exploits revolve around his true desire is to spend his life with Lois as his mate.

• Windows 7 ‘Family Guy’ Ad Airs Despite Microsoft Axe?

  
  Sinlung — Authority: 157
  First, Microsoft announced that it would be teaming up with Seth MacFarlane’s Family Guy to do a spot promoting Windows 7. Then, Microsoft decided that Family Guy — with its raunchy, un-PC riffs on deaf people, incest, and all — wasn’t a terrific fit for the Windows 7 brand. But it seems that wasn’t the ...

  This is perhaps just a little on-the-nose for me. It’s Quagmire from the most recent Family Guy explaining to Brian exactly why he dislikes him so much. “You are the worst person I know. You constantly hit on your best friend’s wife. The man pays for your food and rescued you from certain death, and this ...

  Last night we had comedy done the wrong way ( The Cleveland Show ) and comedy done the right way on Family Guy . It also showed that Quagmire has some sense and a heart, as he unleashed a very effective rant on Brian (he doesnt like Brian and that view was only worsened earlier in the ep when Brian insulted ...

  The "All Seth, All the Time" block of animation on FOX is getting stronger every week. I think this may have been the most wholly satisfying episode of The Cleveland Show weve had yet. The show finally knows what it is, the characters are settled in and established, and it even knows where its going to derive its ...
