Family Guy Info25-year-old creator/executive
producer Seth MacFarlane serves up
the subversive animated comedy
"Family Guy". The show presents the
everyday trials and tribulations of
family life, but with the
distinctive twist and irreverent
slant that only animation can
provide. Peter Griffin is the father
of this not-quite-so-average family
unit of middle class New Englanders.
Lois is Peter's loving wife who
struggles to maintain a modicum of
normalcy in their home life.
Rounding out the Griffin household
are their children: teen queen Meg,
13-year-old slacker Chris, and their
youngest child Stewie, a
diabolically clever baby who's
already set on conquering the world.
And then there's Brian, the
brainiest of the bunch, who also
happens to be the family dog.
"Family Guy" is one of the funniest
and most exciting animated shows
ever to hit television. Since its
debut in 1999, the Emmy®-nominated
animated series FAMILY GUY has
attracted an impressively loyal
following of devoted fans and has
sold over 5 million combined DVD
units, making it the fourth-largest
TV series seller ever. The
subversive show's success on DVD,
combined with the ratings records it
has set on the Cartoon Network's
Adult Swim block, prompted FOX to
bring it back for a fifth season. As
Peter Griffin says, "Freakin'
Sweet!
