Top Ten Family Guy Quotes

In 2005, Family Guy became the first prime-time series to be "uncanceled", meaning brought back by the same network that took the show off the air in the first place. The show originally aired for three seasons from 1999-2002, but was canceled after consistently struggling in the ratings. The under-performance appeared to have more to do with bad timing (or time slots) than the quality of the show, because it became a huge hit in syndication. The re-run ratings, coupled with massive DVD sales, convinced Fox to make the unprecedented move to revive the series.

Typical episodes are packed with pop culture references and the show takes pride in an irreverent style of humor that lies somewhere between The Simpsons and South Park on the scale of political incorrectness.

Seth MacFarlane is the creator of Family Guy and also does the voices for Peter Griffin, Brian Griffin and Stewie Griffin. Alex Borstein is Lois Griffin, Mila Kunis is Meg Griffin and Seth Green completes the family cast as Chris Griffin.
