Family Guy
After a 100-episode milestone, record-breaking DVD sales and huge success in syndication, “Family Guy” continues to resonate with viewers around the world.
Inventive and clever, “Family Guy” ventures where few animated shows, or any shows, have gone before. “Family Guy” presents the everyday trials and tribulations of family life in the small Rhode Island town of Quahog, but with the distinctively exaggerated twist and irreverent slant that only animations can provide. Peter Griffin and his family of lovable misfits are back- Lois, Chris, Meg, baby Stewie, and Brian the dog – as they cope with the adventures of everyday life. From searing satire to brilliant non-sequiturs, “Family Guy” will forever change your perception of comedy.
