Lois: You should spend some time with our kids, Peter. And with me.

Peter: Uh, what could me and you do together?

Lois: (giggles)

Peter: Lois! You've got a sick mind!

Lois: Peter, I'm talking about making love.

Peter: Oh! I thought you wanted us to murder the children and harvest their organs for beer money.

[Jim Cane]

I love Brian and his high-brow sophistication and especially his from-a-distance, unrequited love for Lois. LOLOLOL.

Only surpassed by the slimey, Bob Hope-ish neighbor's secret lust for same. "Oh yeah...chigida chigida"

[Texas Federalist]

Peter to the mobster boss: "What do you want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy?"

[itsahoot]

Apparently FOX has no clue on how to keep good programing on, which is a shame.

It leads the pack in mindless filth, maybe that is why they can't keep these show on. I think Couples lasted 2 weeks, but they haven't given up on it yet.

[fortunecookie]

LOLOLOL!!! I had forgotten that! And Brian is on to him (He's Quagmire I think.) and has such a great disdain for him! Hee hee.

[Petronski]

Peter: I know I'm a good guy, my doctor said I had a big heart.

Lois: No Peter, he said you have an enlarged heart.

Peter: What's the difference?

[Or was this the Simpsons? --jp]

[larlaw]

My personal favorite is when they did a flashback to Peter being on the game show "Password", giving clues to actor Tony Randall!

ANNOUNCER: "The Password is, 'Flaming'"

Peter to Tony Randall: "You..."

Tony Randall: "Actor"

Peter to Tony Randall: "You..."

Tony Randall: "Performer"

Peter to Tony Randall: "You..."

LOL

Family Guy is the FUNNIEST show on television...it is definitely subversive and completely politically incorrect.

I'm gonna celebrate if they are bringing it back!!!!

[rmlew]

Futurama was great in the first season, but they ran out of material.

[Constitution Day]

BUMP for later!

I never saw the show till it came on Cartoon Network. I love it!

[ThinkDifferent]

Victory is mine!

[Steel Wolf]

Lois - Peter, this is the most reckless thing you've ever done in your life!

Peter - Not THE most reckless. Remember the time on that airplane?

--Flashback to Peter standing next to emergency exit on an airplane.--

--Peter looks at the door, obviously thinking about something, for an unusually long time.--

--Suddenly, Peter grabs the lever, and the door pops open. Peter gets sucked out the door and plummets to the Earth--

Peter (while falling to his death) - Hehehehehehehehe

[Petronski]

Politician#1: Mr. Griffin is right! Smoking is a horrible vice. It shortens life expectancy and polutes our air. And according to recent polls, air is good.
Politician#2: Cigarettes killed my father and raped my mother!
Frank: Gentlemen, I propose we send a message to tobacco companies everywhere by fining the El Dorado Cigarette Company infinity billion dollars!
Other politician: That's the spirit, Frank! But I think a real number might be more effective.

[Ribeye]

That's because Al Gores's daughter was one of the writers. It's true.

Zap Brannigan and Kif are two great characters though.

[FlJoePa]

God I love this show! Only 24 attracts my attention like Family Guy.

Did I miss something? The article says the show won an EMMY? I can't believe that the Hollyweird voters would be smart enough to "get" this show and give it it's proper recognition!

My favorite character: Brian.

Brian Griffin is more than just the family dog. He is a gentleman and a scholar, and undeniably the most eloquent member of the Griffin household. Brian is the first person Peter will turn to in times of crisis. But the sarcastic barbs that Brian doles out can be as dry as his martinis. Yes, Brian has been known to toss back a few. Some say it's to kill the pain that comes with the social stigma of being a dog. Others say it's to help him forget the time before he met Peter, when he was a homeless stray who cleaned windshields for handouts. But Brian will tell you it's just good for his coat.
Drinking and throwing out witty bon mots aren't the only things Brian is good at. If you ask him to speak, don't be surprised if he responds in flawless French. He's also got an amazing voice -- he can sing all four parts of a barbershop quartet simultaneously. In short, Brian might be the family dog, but don't tell him that. Did we mention that Brian also holds a third-degree green belt in taekwondo? And in seven more years he'll be a black belt. That's one more year to you and me.

My favorite line: Already posted: "Who's leg do you have to hump to get a dry martini around here".
I also love the newscaster segments - they just add to the irreverence and hilarity.
Seriously, if other readers of this thread haven't seen this show, it can literally lead you to tears it can be so funny.

PLEASE bring it back Fox!

You are speaking about the Democrats favorite character...QHAGMIRE!!!

Allriiiiiight...heheh.

[nickcarraway]

I always wondered if she actually wrote anything for the show, or she was just on payroll. What about Calculon?

They had Al Gore as a guest twice, but the really blew it. Al Gore should have played a robot not himself. he's better at playing a robot.

[Ribeye]

From what I understand Groening thinks she's super talented. Makes sense though. His comic strip "Jeff and Akbar" was supremely irritating and was in "L.A. Weekly" newspaper (Serious liberal tripe wrapped in recycled socialism).

Calculon IS funny. And I love the whole head in a jar concept. Anyone can be a guest! I watch Futurama on Toon (before Family Guy). It's better than the most of the current Simpsons. The Simpson have been really hit and miss the last few years.

Family Guy is epic. Every show is brilliant.

[nickcarraway]

Yes,it's weird that Groening's printed stuff is so lefted, but his TV shows only occasionally go in that direction. I suspect he doesn't have that much involvement in TV.

Remember "Profit" and "Space: Above and Beyond?"

Or Andy Richter Controls the Universe and Oliver Beene.

Peter : "Good game Mean Joe...want some of my coke?"

[Mean Joe Green drinks the coke]

Mean Joe Green : "Hey Kid, catch"

[Mean Joe Green throws his jersy at Peter...then his pants..then his sock and his jockey.]
