Family Guy Christmas episodes

About the show

Seth MacFarlane's adult animated sitcom about the Griffins, an endearingly ignorant dad, his long-suffering wife, their three children and a talking dog, in a small New England town. It began on Fox in January 1999, was cancelled after three seasons, and was revived in 2005 after strong DVD sales and repeats, becoming one of the longest-running animated series on television. Its Christmas episodes run from the frantic first one in 2001 to an hour-long North Pole musical, a retold Nativity, the episode that brought a much-loved character back from the dead and, lately, Hulu-exclusive holiday specials. They are crude, violent and often sweeter than they look, and almost all are for adults.
