The Content
The series centers on the Griffins, a dysfunctional family consisting of parents Peter and Lois; their children Meg, Chris, and Stewie; and their anthropomorphic pet dog Brian. The show is set in the fictional city of Quahog, Rhode Island, and exhibits much of its humor in the form of cutaway gags that often lampoon American culture.

The Structure Every Family Guy episode starts with the same theme tune and
opening, follow this link to see the opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koGoQjXuovY&feature=related
Family Guy uses the filmmaking technique of cutaways, which occur in the majority of Family Guy episodes. Emphasis is often placed on gags which make reference to current events and/or modern cultural icons.
Early episodes based much of their comedy on Stewie's "super villain" antics
As the series progressed, the writers and MacFarlane agreed that his personality and the jokes were starting to feel dated, so they began writing him with a different personality.

The language style
Family Guy often includes self-referential humor. The most common form is jokes about Fox Broadcasting, and occasions where the characters break the fourth wall by addressing the audience
The show uses catchphrases, and most of the primary and secondary characters use them. Notable expressions include Quagmire’s “Giggity giggity goo”, Peter’s “Freakin’ sweet” and Joe’s “Bring it on!”
