Numerous uncited statements, an orange banner with "more citations needed" above the video game section, short & stubby paragraphs and much of the information needs to be updated. Z1720 (talk) 14:57, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In the infobox, under Genre, please add Black comedy, Surreal humor and Satire. There are plenty of reliable sources that have noted Family Guy’s dark humor, surreality and satirical edge.

Replace "as he is a fan of the films of Crosby, Hope and Dorothy Lamour" to "as he is a fan of the films of Crosby, Hope, and Dorothy Lamour." 207.246.179.147 (talk) 23:21, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done Note that WP is agnostic on the topic of the serial comma - it is perfectly acceptable NOT to use it. However, consistency within an article is preferred, and a quick scan of this article shows that it is consistently in use here. PianoDan (talk) 00:00, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Better source for claim Quahog inspired by Cranston?

[edit]

In the "setting" section of the article, the last line currently reads "MacFarlane, in an interview with Providence's Fox affiliate WNAC-TV, stated that the town is modeled after Cranston, Rhode Island." The citation is to the article "Family Guy writer at Bryant" in The Providence Journal, but I paid for 1-day archive access to The Providence Journal to view that article, and it says nothing about WNAC-TV or Cranston. It's a short announcement for a speaking engagement by Danny Smith, here's the full text:

Family Guy writer at Bryant
September 24, 2008 Publication: Providence Journal (RI) Page: E-08 Word Count: 60
Danny Smith, the executive producer and head writer of Family Guy, an animated sitcom on Fox based in the fictitious town of Quahog, R.I., will speak at Bryant University, 1150 Douglas Pike, Smithfield, on Oct. 1 at 7 p.m. in the Janikes Auditorium. The event is free and open to the public, but tickets are required. To reserve, call (401) 232-6245.

If MacFarlane did do an interview with WNAC-TV, can anyone find the date? If not is there an alternate source for the claim about Cranston? Hypnosifl (talk) 19:57, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
