Family Guy is an adult cartoon series created by Seth MacFarlane. The series originated as the animated short The Life of Larry that MacFarlane made while studying animation in the 1990s. It first aired on Fox in January of 1999 but got canceled in November of 2003 due to low ratings. However, high DVD sales convinced Fox’s executives to give Family Guy another shot. One decade, three Emmys and ten seasons later, Family Guy remains one of the most popular animated shows on Fox.
