Peter Griffin

Peter Löwenbräu Griffin is a fictional character on the animated television series Family Guy. His voice, which has a thick New England accent, is produced by the show's creator and lead writer, Seth MacFarlane. Peter, a self described Huguenot, is the head of the Griffin household and the central character in the show. He is married to Lois, and is the father of Meg, Chris, Stewie, and (through sperm donation) Bertram. His friends include his talking dog Brian Griffin, African American deli owner Cleveland Brown, sex-obsessed airline pilot Glenn Quagmire and paraplegic police officer Joe Swanson. Peter Griffin (Seth MacFarlane) is the central character of Family Guy. He and his family live in Quahog, Rhode Island. Speaking with a thick New England accent, he operates as if he is smarter than everyone else, but in reality he's clueless. He spends his free time drinking at the Drunken Clam with his buddies, Quagmire, Cleveland and Joe. Peter has worked for various companies, including the Pawtucket Patriot Brewery and the Happy-Go-Lucky Toy Factory (no doubt modeled after Hasbro, which is headquartered in Providence, Rhode Island). Also, Peter has a long history of fighting with a large, yellow chicken.
