Family Guy is an American animated sitcom created by Seth MacFarlane for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The series centers on the Griffins, a dysfunctional family consisting of parents Peter and Lois; their children Meg, Chris, and Stewie; and their anthropomorphic pet dog Brian. The show is set in the fictional city of Quahog, Rhode Island, and exhibits much of its humor in the form of cutaway gags that often lampoon American culture.
The family was conceived by MacFarlane after developing two animated films, The Life of Larry and Larry & Steve. MacFarlane redesigned the films' protagonist, Larry, and his dog, Steve, and renamed them Peter and Brian, respectively. MacFarlane pitched a seven-minute pilot to Fox on May 15, 1998. The show was given the green light and started production. Shortly after the third season of Family Guy aired in 2001, Fox canceled the series. However, favorable DVD sales and high ratings for syndicated reruns on Adult Swim convinced the network to renew the show in 2004.
And I'd like to sing a song of gratitude to that special chum
When I have a heart that's heavy
Feeling I was born to lose
You are there to say that life's okay
Thank you for it all dear booze
When a chilly wind is blowin'
Telling me to sing the blues
You begin to show your soothing glow
Thank you for it all dear booze
Drifting, flying, on a cloud of whiskey dreams
No more sighing, eyes alight with moonshine beams
When a love is unrequited
When she brushes off my woos
You are there to mend, my fluid friend
Thank you for it all dear booze
Drifting, flying, on a cloud of whiskey dreams
No more sighing, eyes alight with moonshine beams
When a love is unrequited
When she brushes off my woos
You are there to mend, my fluid friend
Thank you for it all dear booze
