Line 17:
* [[Affably Evil]]: Stewie often talks about wanting to [[Take Over the World]], but he's easily a nicer person than at least Peter and Lois.
* [[AI Is a Crapshoot]]: "'''MILEY SMASH!'''"
* [[Airplane Arms]]: For a split second, in the episode "No Meals On Wheels", after Peter shocks Lois in a little trap of his ([[It Makes Sense in Context]]), he runs away, makeshift cape flapping....in a very [[Super Mario World (Video Game)|familiar]] [[Shout
* [[All Gays Are Promiscuous]]: Used in the episode "Family Gay" where Peter sleeps with several men at once while he is under the influence of the 'gay gene' that was injected into him earlier in the episode. Although it's not like he'd be terribly opposed to an orgy with ten other women as a straight man, as long as Lois was cool with it.
* [[All Gays Love Theater]]
Line 53:
** An early example - [[Tron (Film)|The only time Peter was defeated.]]
** Now that the show's finally gone HD (Even more [[Art Evolution]] was employed), the intro was finally re-animated and looks MUCH better, and supporting characters replace previous generic characters.
** When Brian and Stewie meet themselves through time travel to the year 1999 (when the show first debuted), the entire scene is in the style of the pilot (with Brian and Stewie poking fun at the glitchy animations), including being in SD instead of HD. When the duo goes into the altered future, the art style shifts to a <ref> which was [http://www.atmosphere-vfx.com/familyguy-reels/ animated] by one of the companies of ''[[Stargate SG-1 (TV)|Stargate SG-1]]'' and ''[[
* [[Ascended Extra]]:
** Quagmire's sister and her abusive boyfriend were introduced as a one-off gag in the Season 8 episode "Jerome Is the New Black." Flash forward to Season 10, they become the main focus of the show's ''[[Cerebus Syndrome|seriously taken]]'' [[Very Special Episode]].
Line 64:
{{quote| '''Asian Woman:''' (in coy Asian accent) How much signal I need to cut across eight lane? None? I turn now. Good luck everybody else!}}
* [[Ass Shove]]: Peter's prostate exam, among other instances.
* [[As the Good Book Says...]]: Parodied in "Mr. Griffin Goes to Washington"; before a baseball game, there's discussion on what people holding signs that read "John 3:16" means. Brian looks up the verse in the Bible: "And the Lord said: "Go Sox.""
* [[At the Opera Tonight]]: Seen in "No Chris Left Behind".
* [[Auction]]
Line 174:
* [[Brain Bleach]]: [[In Universe]], just one look at Meg and a store clerk and camera guy screamed in fear, poured gasoline over themselves, lit themselves on fire and jumped out the conveniently placed window. Later on, Stewie's look at a porno magazine and the time Brian showed him 2 Girls 1 Cup.
* [[Brainless Beauty]]: Brian's ex-girlfriend Jillian and her friends.
* [[Bread, Eggs, Breaded Eggs]]
{{quote| '''Peter:''' What are you gonna make me do, whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? 'Cause I'm married.}}
* [[Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick]]:
Line 295:
* [[Cool People Rebel Against Authority]]
* [[The Couch]]
* [[Couch Gag]]: Before the opening sequence was created, Seth originally suggested each episode open with a parody of different tv show's classic opening credits. While this concept was ultimately deemed too expensive, a few examples have made it to the final show, such as ''[[Family Ties (TV)|Family Ties]]'', ''[[Will and Grace (TV)|Will and Grace]]'' (used as a cutaway gag instead), ''[[That Girl (TV)|That Girl]]'' (animation created for the opening was used instead as a joke in "Mr Griffin Goes to Washington"), ''[[
* [[Couldn't Find a Lighter]]: Peter and Lois end up temporarily trapped in Cuba. Peter takes to it quickly by getting a Cuban Havanna, but failing to find a lighter he lights it off a burning American flag that a helpful local was carrying past.
* [[Cowboy Bebop At His Computer]]:
Line 317:
** Stewie vs Brian in "Patriot Games."
** Meg beating up Connie in "Dial Meg for Murder". She also literally curb stomps Peter.
** Quagmire [[No
** Quagmire himself gets a pretty nasty beatdown from his sister's [[Bastard Boyfriend]] Jeff in "Screams Of Silence, The Story of Brenda Q". [[Chekhov's Skill|Trying to finish Quagmire off by choking him was a bad idea, though...]]
** In "Believe It Or Not, Joe's Walking On Air", Peter, Cleveland, and Quagmire attempt to "recripple" Joe after healing his disability [[Acquired Situational Narcissism|inflates his ego]]. He soundly pummels all of them, none of them able to lay a single hit.
