- TriviaSeth MacFarlane based the voice of Peter Griffin on a security guard he knew while going to college at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD).
- GoofsWhen shown a quick view of Cleveland's House it is one and a half story Cape Cod house, like Peter's House. But, whenever Peter does one of his "Shenanigans' near Cleveland's house, it is a full two story, non-Cape Cod home.
- Quotes
Peter Griffin: Brian, there's a message in my Alpha Bits. It says "OOOOOO".
Brian Griffin: Peter, those are Cheerios.
- Crazy creditsIn the new HD seasons intro, the generic dancers on the stairs are replaced by actual characters from the show.
- Alternate versionsSome episodes air in a somewhat-edited version in their original FOX airings and syndicated airings, but air in a racier, "uncut" version on Adult Swim, with some extra scenes or alternate versions of scenes. However, Adult Swim still bleeps the most profane of language.

Featured review
It's hard for me to rate this show. When looking back at the older seasons it seems to me like Seth and his crew had fun writing and voicing the characters. Occasionally there were musical numbers thrown into the mix, songs I know by heart and will forever be stuck in my head. Such as "Shipoopi" and "It's a wonderful day for pie"
We hardly get any of this nowadays. The gags are nowhere near as complex or funny as they used to be.
Seems to me like the only reason this show is still running is because there is money involved and because some people ( like me ) are naive enough to keep watching even tho it's not what it used to be.
I'm not angry at the state of this show, but it's sad to see what it's been reduced to.
