This animated series features the adventures of the Griffin family. Endearingly ignorant Peter and his stay-at-home wife, Lois, reside in Quahog, R.I., and have three kids. Meg, the eldest child, is a social outcast, and teenage Chris is awkward and clueless when it comes to the opposite sex. The youngest, Stewie, is a genius baby who is bent on killing his mother and destroying the world. Brian, the talking dog, keeps Stewie in check while sipping martinis and sorting through his own issues.

The Griffins go to Springfield, where they encounter a stranger named Homer Simpson; Stewie trades his mind-control device for Bart's slingshot; Lisa teaches Meg how to play the saxophone; Homer and Peter argue about the best beer.

After Peter's mother dies, he befriends her longtime pal, Evelyn (Lauren Bacall); Stewie is upset when he comprehends the reality of death.

When Stewie and Brian travel to the 17th century and come close to altering the course of history, Stewie decides to destroy his time machine.

Fame gets to Peter's head when he and Quagmire form a singing/songwriting team.
