Plot Synopsis
Seth MacFarlane's animated comedy series follows the outrageous trials and tribulations of Peter Griffin and his not-quite-so-average family of middle-class New Englanders. Peter's odd family includes: Lois, his wife, who is a stay-at-home mom with no patience for her family's antics; 17-year-old Meg, who is an outcast at school and the Griffin family punching bag; 13-year-old Chris, who is a socially awkward teen without a clue about the opposite sex; one-year-old Stewie, who is a diabolically clever baby with a burgeoning sexuality that's very much a work in progress; and Brian, the family dog and novelist, who is one step away from AA. Guest voices in Season 11 include Sofia Vergara, Elizabeth Banks, Johnny Depp, Ryan Reynolds, Kellan Lutz, and more.
Season 12 of FAMILY GUY premiered on Sunday, September 29, 2013 at 9pm ET/PT on Fox, as the citizens of Quahog compete against each other searching for a prize -- using a restaurant placement that Peter believes to be a treasure map. Guest voices for the 12th season include: Ashton Kutcher, Liam Neeson, Bryan Cranston, Conan O'Brien, Adam Levine, Peter Dinklage, Jeff Daniels, Michelle Dockery, Jon Cryer, and more.
FAMILY GUY returned for its thirteenth season on Sunday, September 28, 2014 at 9pm ET/PT on FOX, starting with the special one-hour "The Simpsons Guy" season premiere crossover event with THE SIMPSONS. In the season opener, Peter and the Griffins get out of dodge and end up in Springfield, where they are greeted by a friendly stranger named Homer Simpson (guest voice Dan Castellaneta), who welcomes his new "albino" friends with open arms. The families get along famously: Stewie and Bart (guest voice Nancy Cartwright) make out like bandits when Stewie trades in his mind control device for a good old-fashioned slingshot; Lisa (guest voice Yeardley Smith) takes Meg under her wing and teaches her the saxophone; and Peter and Homer fight over the best beer in town: Pawtucket vs Duff.
