Family Guy Viewer Mail #1 - S3-E21
Trivia: During the second act (Super Griffins), just as Mayor West says he's going to roll around in toxic waste, the crowd gives him a standing ovation. Watch the bottom center of the screen; a bald man in a grey shirt grabs the butt of the woman in a green dress next to him for no reason.
Death Lives - S3-E6
Trivia: After Peter gets struck by lightning and Death appears, there is a shot of the sky and the clouds seem to break apart and the sun comes out. This looks remarkably like the beginning of the opening credits for "The Simpsons," another show on FOX.

Trivia: In the superhero segment, all five Griffins get similar powers to those of the X-men. Stewie's telekinesis is similar to Xavier/Jean Grey, Chris' fire powers are similar to Pyro, Lois' super strength is similar to Colossus, Brian's speed is similar to Quicksilver, and Meg's nails are a reference to Wolverine's claws.
Answer: Lacey Chabert was the actress who originally voiced Meg in early episodes. She left of her own accord due to being in school and other acting work; Seth MacFarlane has stated there was no tension with her leaving, but it makes for a handy joke for the show.
