    The humor on Family Guy is absolutely uproarious. Practically every line in the series is a joke, creating an avalanche of nonstop laughs across each episode. Family Guy accents the humor with its signature cut-away gags, where the writers and animators are free to recreate reference material and break away from the main storyline in the name of co...

    Even though Family Guy debuted six years before American Dad, the former show is essentially a typical family sitcom that takes advantage of its animated medium's potential for the absurd. It is basically an updated and more outrageous version of The Simpsons. RELATED: Family Guy: 5 Things It Copies From The Simpsons (& 5 That Set It Apart) America...

    Although American Dad wins top points for originality, Family Guy is doubtlessly still the more influential of Seth MacFarlane's series. Before Family Guy, The Simpsons was one of the only mainstream animated series on air for adults. Family Guy heralded in a new era for television at the turn of the millennium, pressing the boundaries of what coul...

    Both Family Guy and American Dad have been on TV for over a dozen seasons. Naturally, a lot of people think that both shows are past their peak. However, Family Guy has received noticeably more flack on this front than American Dad. After the eighteenth season, Family Guy has become somewhat hackneyed. Its once unmatched hilarity is now replicated ...

    Luckily, both Family Guy and American Dad have excellent, strikingly original character casts. Family Guy's Griffin family and American Dad's Smith family are practically tied in terms of appeal, so the decider must come from the supporting lineups. While American Dad has a few outstanding side-characters, they are no match for Family Guy's boister...

    Ever since its pilot aired in 1999, Family Guy has stood out with its references to old movies, TV shows, and pop-culture relics. This makes for great humor, but it is certainly not the most culturally in-tune. Although Family Guy is not afraid to throw in an occasional reference to current events, it focuses on a different brand of comedy while Am...

    Seth MacFarlane is the star of both shows, voicing Peter, Stewie, Brian, and Quagmire amongst others on Family Guy and Stan and Roger on American Dad. While American Dad has a few noteworthy names in its supporting cast (Patrick Stewart, Scott Grimes, Dee Bradley Baker to name a few), Family Guy's cast runs deep. Mila Kunis is the voice of Meg, Set...

    American Dad and Family Guy can both get a little bit raunchy. Neither show is very family-friendly, but if we had to watch one with our grandmother, American Dad would probably be the safer bet. Family Guy is known to push the envelope, getting explicit and graphic in matters of sex, drugs, and social issues. American Dad is a tad less radical on ...

    The animation on both shows is of a similar, almost identical style. Because Family Guy is so much more popular, though, it reasonably has a larger budget than American Dad. Therefore, even though the two series look pretty much the same on the surface, Family Guy has the resources to be more elaborate, extravagant, and visually striking. This appe...

    While Family Guy can get more extravagant in terms of special effects, American Dad takes the win for design. This means that the actual drawings, character sketches, and finer-detailed looks of American Dad are more impressive than those of its predecessor. Most of the American Dad characters have more detailed outfits and appearances. This shines...

  3. Apr 16, 2024 · Family Guy” has been making more of an effort in recent years to cast actors whose races and ethnicities match the characters that they’re playing. Was that a hard lesson for the show to learn?

    • Stewie. Even if you've never seen "Family Guy," chances are you have seen a photo or clip of Peter's youngest child Stewie Griffin at some point on the internet.
    • Peter. By his own admission, Peter Griffin is sometimes seen as a knock-off version of Homer Simpson who tries to be more gross, stupid, and lazy in every way.
    • Glenn Quagmire. Quagmire is the third and most interesting of Peter's inner circle of friends. While other characters on long-running shows often become worse over time, Quagmire seems to have improved somewhat.
    • Lois. As the mother of Chris, Meg, and Stewie, Lois is the matriarch of the Griffin household. She's also Peter's better half — most of the time. Some of the time.
  4. This animated series features the adventures of the Griffin family. Endearingly ignorant Peter and his stay-at-home wife, Lois, reside in Quahog, R.I., and have three kids. Meg, the eldest child...
