Don’t you wish you had a Dad like Peter Griffin? There would never be a dull moment, whether it be when he’s fighting a chicken or building a moat around the house, then add in your mutant little brother who’s always trying to kill your mum and your ugly sister who’s always complaining. Oh and what about the dog who you can talk to and the pedophile down the road who invites you in for popsicles when you do the paper run. Yes life is good for Chris Griffin and life will also be spectacularly funny for you when you tune into back to back episodes of Family Guy on Comedy Central!
