Family Guy Quiz: How Well Do You Know Family Guy?

Take this quiz to find out how well do you know the Family Guy.

The animated comedy series Family Guy is based on the characters created by Seth MacFarlane and stars Peter, Lois, Brian, Stewie, Chris (Brian's son), Cleveland Brown, and Diane Simmons. It was developed by MacFarlane and David Zuckerman for Fox Broadcasting Company and premiered on January 31, 1999. Fuzzy Door Productions produces the show.

The Griffins are a family consisting of Peter and Lois, their children Meg, Chris, and Stewie, and their anthropomorphic dog Brian. The show is set in the fictional city of Quahog, Rhode Island, and makes use of metafiction to lampoon American culture by frequently inserting meta-jokes that target aspects such as politics or society.

MacFarlane created the family after developing two animated features, The Life of Larry and Larry & Steve. MacFarlane reinvented Larry, the protagonist of the films, as Peter and changed his dog's name to Steve. In December 1998, Fox ordered a seven-minute pilot and began production.

Following the cancellation of The Simpsons, Fox announced that Family Guy was also being canceled. One unaired episode became available on Adult Swim in 2003, completing the show's initial run. Since then, favorable DVD sales and high ratings from syndicated reruns have persuaded Fox to bring back the series in 2004; a fourth season would premiere on May 1, 2005.

Since its debut, Family Guy has received a lot of acclaims. The series has been nominated for 12 Primetime Emmy Awards and 11 Annie Awards, with three wins each. It was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series in 2009, making it the first animated program to be recognized since The Flintstones in 1961. TV Guide ranked Family Guy the ninth Greatest TV Cartoon of All Time in 2013. For its graphic content, violence, and writing, the series has attracted both praise and criticism.
