The highlights of Family Guy for many, of course, are Stewie the ingenious baby and the family’s dog Brian (arguably the sanest one of the lot), and both are in fine form here. And while this series again allows many of the supporting characters a space in the limelight, it’s Stewie and Brian who remain responsible for some of Family Guy’s funniest moments. Bluntly, there are plenty of them.
Family Guy Season 1
Family Guy Season 2
Family Guy Season 3
Still, there’s little getting away from the fact that season
five lacks the spark that energized the superb first two or
three series, and as a result, there are episodes here that are
good where they were once great. There are, still, plenty of
examples of the old magic, and it’s still primarily a real
pleasure that’s pretty much guaranteed to raise laughs from
those who don’t mind their entertainment with a bit of edge.
Synopsis
The adventures of the Griffin family continues with the story of
bumbling, well-intentioned father Peter; his sweet but oblivious
wife Lois; and their teenagers, dim-witted Chris and awkward
Meg. The most recognizable characters, however, remain the
family's masterminds: evil genius baby Stewie, determined to
achieve complete world domination at the age of one, and Brian,
an erudite martini-swilling dog, the family's lone voice of
reason. Includes all the episodes from the fifth series.
They live in a the town of Quahog, Rhode Island next door to sex-obsessed Glen Quagmire, hen-pecked Cleveland Brown and disabled cop Joe Swanson.
This is their story, and it's not for the easily offended.
