This politically incorrect and hilarious TV comedy is absolutely brilliant. Family Guy is an animated series that showcases the Griffen family. At first this may sound a lot like The Simpsons, but it has nothing in common except that it's animated and about a family. Stewie the youngest is a sadistic baby that is constantly trying to destroy his mother. Chris, the son takes after his father which means he is fat and isn't the smartest crayon in the box. Meg desperately wants to be accepted by people, but no one is afraid to say how much they hate her. The Griffen family also has a talking dog named Brian who watches after Stewie. Brian enjoys a martini and is always trying to get his life in order. Peter, is basically nuts or possibly just really stupid but he is always getting his family in trouble. Lastly, the mother Louis is probable the only sane one, except for her attempts to manage her crazy family.
