Despite being the most outrageous, irreverent, politically incorrect show on TV, Family Guy has managed to stay on — well, off and on — the air for 20 years!
Since premiering on January 31, 1999, the animated series has faced multiple cancellations, several lawsuits, and endless criticism for its gratuitous violence and stereotyping.
But like a giant, plucky chicken, the FOX comedy refuses to stay down. LOLz!
