Ode to the Evil Monkey

Wendy Boswell — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 18:30:49 +0000

Evil Monkey
A monkey that lives in Chris’s closet. Whenever Chris mentions it, he looks in the general direction of his bedroom, upon which the monkey is seen pointing at him shakily, and then returning to Chris’s room, much to Chris’s horror. Chris tries to tell his family about the existence of the Evil Monkey but, so far, only Stewie believes him. In the show’s universe, the monkey was not originally evil, but became so after catching his wife in bed with another monkey, which, according to Seth MacFarlane, leaves him “not so much evil as embittered”. When Chris is out of the house, the Evil Monkey is having time off from gesturing and likes to smoke pot and listen to Foghat. As of It Takes a Village Idiot, and I Married One, he is now a Jehovah’s Witness. The only other characters who have seen the monkey are Peter (in “Stewie Loves Lois”), Brian’s son Dylan (in “The Former Life of Brian) and Old Man Herbert. Peter mistook the monkey for Meg, so he still doesn’t appear to know he exists, and Herbert slept through the whole encounter, but Dylan approaches and viciously assaults the monkey as soon as he emerges to threaten Chris. Although the Evil Monkey was originally intended as a small time gag (similar to the Giant Chicken and The Performance Artist), he has gained cult status amongst Family Guy fans and is extremely popular amongst most fans and non-fans alike. – source

Interview with Family Guy writer Mike Henry

Wendy Boswell — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 20:19:25 +0000

24 Hours Vancouver has a really good interview up with Mike Henry, one of the original Family Guy writers and also the voice of many of the characters on the show, including Cleveland Brown, Herbert the Pervert, Bruce (the effeminate voice guy), and the Greased Up Deaf Guy. Here’s a snippet:

Were there story ideas that the Fox censors just wouldn’t allow?

Henry: They really kind of let us do a lot. There are words and horrific sexual slurs that you can’t say on TV which we all understand – they’re funny when you hear them, but you can’t say them on TV. But for the most part, they really let a lot ride. We’ll go ahead and produce jokes that we know can’t air just for the DVDs. The one that I wish we could have done was actually in the DVD movie: Meg had had a sex change. She was a man and the joke was that she had had an “addadicktomy.” The censors said “No way!”

It’s Thelma! Thelma Griffin!

Wendy Boswell — Wed, 20 Jun 2007 22:27:58 +0000

Here are some facts about Thelma Griffin:

Thelma is the mother of Peter Griffin. She is 82 years old, and has grey hair with noticeable wrinkles below her eyes. She has purple earrings and a purple bead necklace. She also wears glasses like her son and husband and is a heavy smoker (which is backed up by her coughing fit).

Her first appearance was in a cut-off scene with Francis, her ex-husband. She mentions that she is on a gambling spree in Las Vegas. Later, near the end of the same episode, Thelma is heard through the front door of the Griffin’s House, requesting a place to stay, and telling Peter to “Break out the Schnapps”. This, in turn, causes the entire family to run towards a “Pod” and blast off, presumably into space.

In another episode, Thelma later divorces Francis and starts dating Tom Tucker for a short while, before leaving him to continue a free life away from commitment.

After Francis dies in Peter’s Two Dads, she reveals to Peter that Francis is not his real father, adding that Peter’s birth was the result of her having relations with a man called Mickey McFinnegan.
