Did you know
- TriviaSeth MacFarlane based the voice of Peter Griffin on a security guard he knew while going to college at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD).
- GoofsWhen shown a quick view of Cleveland's House it is one and a half story Cape Cod house, like Peter's House. But, whenever Peter does one of his "Shenanigans' near Cleveland's house, it is a full two story, non-Cape Cod home.
- Quotes
Peter Griffin: Brian, there's a message in my Alpha Bits. It says "OOOOOO".
Brian Griffin: Peter, those are Cheerios.
- Crazy creditsIn the new HD seasons intro, the generic dancers on the stairs are replaced by actual characters from the show.
- Alternate versionsSome episodes air in a somewhat-edited version in their original FOX airings and syndicated airings, but air in a racier, "uncut" version on Adult Swim, with some extra scenes or alternate versions of scenes. However, Adult Swim still bleeps the most profane of language.

Featured review
If you want dark off-the-wall humour that will easily provide consistent yucks, then this is your animated comedy show.
The unworthy dismiss it as primetime lowbrow cutaway filth; this is not a show for them, this is a show for people who love to laugh yet find less and less things to laugh at as time goes on.
The show has strong expression of Jazz and Big Band references solidified through it's theme song, composed and effortlessly reiterated by Walter Murphy. If you're into Jazz music this alone is reason enough to watch.
Despite his modesty in interviews, Seth MacFarlane is a genius and we're going to really miss him when he's gone.
