MacFarlane also co-created the “Family Guy” spinoff “The Cleveland Show,” which ran for four seasons from 2009 to 2014. “Family Guy” has earned MacFarlane five Emmy awards.
Outside of the “Family Guy” universe, MacFarlane also serves as a co-creator and executive producer on “American Dad!,” and voices Stan Smith and Roger. The series began on Fox before moving to TBS, where it concluded its 19th season in December 2022.
