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)

Get the family guymug. A television show that was canceled by Fox after 3 seasons was later brought back after several years. The fourth season is widely viewed as a great disappointment. The main characters are Peter, Lois, Brian, Stewie, Meg, and Chris.

Get the family guymug. One of the most overrated TV shows of the 21st century thus far. The early years were good, but since its return it has been boring, yet everyone likes it and sees it as better than the Simpsons, even though it is pretty much ripping of the Simpsons completely.
The characters are simple and unfunny.

Get the family guymug. A once amazing show that has undeniably deteriorated. Still good, but definitely not what it used to be. Compare the 1st 2 seasons to the newest episodes.
Family Guy seasons 1 and 2 were great, 3 was good, the 1st half of 4 was ok, but the 2nd half was 80% Meg bashing and flashbacks.

Get the family guymug. a funny animated series on FOX that got cancelled, but it was never funnier than the simpsons or futurama. now that the show has been brought back to Fox, a lot of faggots watch it which ruins the show, it lacks the originality and hilarity that it first had and sucks a lot, and actually has a reason to be cancelled this time.

Get the family guymug. A synonym for The Simpsons.
1: Remember that episode of Family Guy we saw a few nights ago?
2: Dude, that was The Simpsons
1: Yeah, that's what I said.

Get the family guymug. A funny show, I love it!
people are trying to get they're point across that it is a bad show or that it steals from the Simpsons, which is a show i also like. People if you think it sucks why even bother taking the time to whine about it here, if you think people who watch it are stupid, then good for you, and know you're smarter for not caring or watching the show, If you love family guy , doesn't mean you have to make others like it to. sure you can love it and watch it, i do , and if you dont like it, don't watch it.
