Peter Griffin is a fictional character and the protagonist of the animated comedy series Family Guybroadcast on the Fox network. He is the patriarch of the Griffin family, married to Lois Pewterschmidt and the father of Meg, Chris and Stewie; he also has a dog named Brian. He's also the father of Bertram, who is currently Stewie's enemy. He is voiced by the show's creator and lead writer, Seth MacFarlane, who performs his voice with a pronounced Rhode Island accent. MacFarlane conceived Peter and the rest of the Griffin family in January 1999, and the characters first appeared on television in the series premiere, "Death Has a Shadow", on January 31, 1999 after Super Bowl XXXIII.

Peter's voice was inspired by a janitor that MacFarlane heard at his school. His appearance was a redesign of the protagonist Larry from MacFarlane's previous animated short films, The Life of Larry and Larry & Steve. The Peter Griffin character has received generally mixed reviews from critics. He has appeared in several pieces of Family Guy merchandise, including toys, t-shirts and a video game, and has made crossover appearances in other shows, including The Simpsons, South Park and the Family Guy spin-off The Cleveland Show.
