Family Guy is an American adult animated sitcom that has aired on Fox since January 31, 1999. Created by animator Seth MacFarlane, the show chronicles the adventures and endeavors of Griffin family and their various friends in the fictional city of Quahog, Rhode Island. Many of the ideas for the show originated in an animated short film The Life of Larry , which MacFarlane created in the mid-1990s as his thesis film while studying at the Rhode Island School of Design. [1] [2] Family Guy stars MacFarlane, Alex Borstein, Seth Green, Mila Kunis and Mike Henry. It is executive produced by MacFarlane and Steve Callaghan and Richard Appel, who also functions as its showrunner.
Since its debut, Family Guy has earned widespread critical acclaim. It has also received a variety of different award nominations, including 12 Annie Awards (with three wins), 7 Golden Reel Awards (with two wins), 32 Emmy Awards (with nine wins), 17 Teen Choice Awards (with five wins), and one Grammy Award.
Voice cast members MacFarlane, Borstein and Kunis have each received nominations for their voice acting performance. MacFarlane is the most decorated actor in the cast, with being the first and only cast member to have won an Emmy Award and being nominated for a Grammy Award. Family Guy: Live in Vegas , a soundtrack album released in 2005, received a Grammy Award nomination. In total, Family Guy has been nominated for over 91 awards and has won 24.
