Burbank, CA – December 3, 2024 – The global leader in adult animation, Adult Swim, will feature library episodes of “Family Guy” in its primetime weekday lineup beginning in 2025.

To mark the return of Family Guy, Adult Swim will also host a three-day marathon of episodes every evening from 7 pm to 5 am ET/PT beginning Wednesday, January 1st.
“Adult Swim is a huge part of ‘Family Guy’’s early history, and we’re excited for the series to return to our lineup in 2025,” said Michael Ouweleen, president of Adult Swim. “Having Family Guy back on our air is a great complement to the amazing slate of animated originals we also have planned for next year.”
About “Family Guy”
“Family Guy” 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.
“Family Guy” continues to entertain its die-hard fan base with razor-sharp humor, spot-on parodies, spectacular animation, and orchestra-backed original music. Since its debut in 1999, the series has reached cult status among fans, and its breakout star, a talking baby, has become one of the greatest TV characters of all time. “Family Guy” has racked up numerous awards, including an Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Comedy Series, only the second animated series in television history to be honored with such a distinction. Most recently, series creator and lead voice actor Seth MacFarlane (voices of “Peter Griffin,” “Stewie Griffin,” “Brian Griffin” and “Glenn Quagmire”) was nominated for the 2021 Emmy Award for Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance and won the 2019 Emmy Award for Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance. Cast member Alex Borstein (voice of “Lois Griffin”) won the 2018 Emmy Award in that same category and was just nominated in 2024. MacFarlane also was nominated in 2018. He won the 2017 and 2016 Emmy Award in the category and was nominated from 2013 to 2015. “Family Guy” will return to FOX in 2025 with all-new episodes and is available to stream on Hulu. The series stars Seth MacFarlane, Alex Borstein, Seth Green, Mila Kunis, and Arif Zahir.

Rich Appel and Alec Sulkin serve as executive producers and showrunners, while Steve Callaghan, Tom Devanney, Danny Smith, Kara Vallow, Mark Hentemann, Patrick Meighan and Alex Carter are executive producers.
