Talk:List of characters in the Family Guy franchise

Dave Campbell

In the list, it says that Dave is played by Fred Willard. At this webpage, it says that he is played by Carlos Alazraqui. Is it Carlos or Fred?? --S-MAN

Carter and US Steel

When Peter was playing poker with Carter, Eisner, Bill Gates and Ted Turner, Carter offered US Steel at one point to see a large raise. -DynSkeet (talk) 11:43, August 18, 2005 (UTC)

Ollie Williams

Ollie Williams' catch phrase "Iss Gon' rain" seems to be very similar to a piece by the American minimalist composer Steve Reich entitled "It's Gonna Rain". In 1965, Reich made a recording and subsequently created tape loops of an apocalyptic preacher talking, in his words "very forcefully about the flood [refering to the biblical story of Noah and the Ark]". The piece is in two parts. The piece is just a repeating tape loop of the preacher saying "it's gonna rain" over and over again. Although, this is probably too much though for an episode of Family Guy

Tom Tucker

Shouldn't he have his own page? And how come characters such as Muriel Goldman which are never going to have that much info have their own pages?

Quagmire's Mother

Quagmire's Mother - Quagmire once mentioned that he only grew up with his mother, meaning she was either a prostitute before he was born Where the hell does this comment come from? It's pure speculation. Edit (from random guy on street): actually, I have heard that somewhere, not on the internet... I seem to remember watching it on TV, and I relized why he's messed up (no offense to other people with prostitue mothers/who are prostitues).

Regarding the Grinch's "death"

How do you know it was the Grinch who was executed? It was never even mentioned who the person that was executed was, other than the fact that he was, well, executed.- Lord Lonic

This page is too long!

i suggest redoing this page. like cutting out the meaningless onetime characters, and only keeping in those who have had a recurring, three+ episode role in the series. if you disagree, perhaps moving the less than important characters to their own page might be the best course of action. does anyone agree?

Kim Cattrall and Andrew McCarthy

Both Kim Cattrall and Andrew McCarthy should be on the list of real and fictional characters, as the show has parodied Mannequin. Additionally Kim Catrall has been parodied about old people having a lot to offer society in a cutaway in The Courtship of Stewie's Father. I think there is a third reference to her, but I am not certain.

Jonathan Weed

This is a detail, but I edited the part about Jonathan Weed's accent and replaced 'French accent' by 'Italian accent', however someone edited it back to 'French accent'. I'm not 100% sure Weed's accent is Italian, but what I know is that his accent sounds more Spanish or Italian than French. --Tanynep
