One of the best anime ever. It was created by a brilliant man named Seth McFarlane. It is about a guy named Peter Griffin and his family and friends going on crazy ass adventures. It began airing on FOX sometime at the end of the 90s. This amazing anime series is known for being funny as hell with references to other famous anime such as: The Simpsons, American Dad, King of the Hill, and many more. You should show this anime to your grandchildren this awesome anime 20 years later to keep this anime's legacy alive. This show was also nominated for various awards which I am too lazy to list down. This anime is the fifth best anime of all time. Just behind Spongebob SquarePants, Bee Movie, The Simpons, and the one and only, Cory in the House. Oh, and one more thing, I didn't bother to watch the newer episodes of spongebob or any clips from King of the Hill because this is a fucking meme and I don't know why you bothered to read the whole thing. I always wanted to know why humanity became a bunch of retards in recent years. Oh, and good job to anyone who managed to read this entire shit hole of a definition.
Guy 1: Have you seen Family Guy yet?

Guy 3: Family guy is bad

Guy 1: gtfo lmao
Get the Family Guy mug.
The funniest, most random, and entertaining show ever created by man kind in the history of the world. The show kicks ass. Seth Mcfarlen is a pure genious! There is not a better show out there.
I have quit my religion and made Family Guy my bible.

The most random show on TV by far. The best cartoon on tv. Peter Griffin steals the show

Family Guy is a show that comes on Fox and on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. The show follows a disorderly family, Peter, Lois, Meg, Chris, Stewie, and Brian the dog.
The show uses flashbacks for it's humor, and it is often overused. These flashbacks have very little to do with the main plot, which is often hidden behind these flashbacks. The show is often bashed for the flashbacks and often accused of being a rip off of the Simpsons(In total irony, the Simpsons was accused for being a rip off the Flintsones). Sometimes the flashbacks work and other times it doesn't and the show has been going downhill since season 3, which is the common opinion of Family Guy fans.
Moving on to other things, the charathers are very predictable. And the running gags are never really mixed up, and running gags from certain episodes will come in to later episodes, they wern't like the "Kill Kenny" gags and you know it will happen.

Overall, I personally think that the show is unintelligent.
But I think it's a great show for a few laughs for anybody.
Why do you need an example for Family Guy? Just watch the show.

FOX cartoon that uses pop culture and tongue in cheek humor to induce hilarity to an otherwise lame lineup of FOX shows. Centers around the Griffin Family- Dad Peter, Mom Lois, Daughter Meg, Son Chris, Baby Stewie (evil genius), and Dog Brian- and their life on Spooner St. in Quahog. Everything and everyone is mocked from Osama Bin Laden making his next address to the U.S. to Optimus Prime being jewish. It is presented in rapid sequence, usually not adding to the plot, but that is where the appeal is.
Did you see Kate Moss on Family Guy? Everytime she turned sideways she disappeared... (Obviously making fun of how thin she is)

Family Guy has some good humour but it's all stolen from The Simpsons. Without The Simpsons, there would be no Family Guy. Hey, The Simpsons already have a fat stupid guy, there's no need for another one SETH MACFARLAND

SIMPSONS ARE BETTER, FACE IT PEOPLE
Guy 1: Did you watch Family Guy last night?
Guy 2: God no, I just watched The Simpsons
