(Redirected from
Pewterschmidt family
)

Roberta Tubbs
.

multimedia franchise originally conceived and created by Seth MacFarlane for the Fox Broadcasting Company, primarily based on the animated series Family Guy (1999–present), its spin-off series The Cleveland Show (2009–2013), and the film Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story (2005), based on his 1995–1997 thesis films The Life of Larry and Larry & Steve
.

Set in the fictional towns of

Stoolbend, Virginia, the show exhibits much of its humor in the form of metafictional cutaway gags often lampooning American culture. The following is an abridged list of characters consisting of the starring families (Griffin; Brown/Tubbs
) and supporting characters from all three. Characters are only listed once, normally under the first applicable subsection in the list; very minor characters are listed with a more regular character with whom they are associated.

The Griffin Family

Peter Griffin

Peter Löwenbräu Griffin (voiced by Seth MacFarlane) is the patriarch of the Griffin household, a 46-year-old Irish-American blue-collar worker and the "family guy" of the show's title. For most of the series, Peter is shown as an obese, unintelligent, lazy, outspoken, childish, and eccentric alcoholic.

Lois Griffin

Lois Patrice Griffin (née Pewterschmidt) (voiced by Alex Borstein) is the matriarch of the Griffin household, Peter's wife, and the mother of Meg, Chris, and Stewie. She is 45-years-old, and is of German and Jewish descent.

Meg Griffin

Megan "Meg" Griffin (voiced by Lacey Chabert in seasons 1 & 2, Mila Kunis from season 3 onwards) is the Griffins' 18-year-old daughter and eldest child. She is a self-conscious, insecure, and sensitive teenager who is more often than not ridiculed and ignored by the people around her.

Chris Griffin

Christopher Cross "Chris" Griffin (voiced by Seth Green) is the Griffins' 15-year-old son and middle child. He is a friendly, laid-back, and slow-witted teenager who is a younger version of Peter physically, but intellectually, he often shows more potential, as demonstrated from moments of coherence and articulation within his speech.

Stewie Griffin

Stewart Gilligan "Stewie" Griffin (voiced by Seth MacFarlane) is the Griffins' 1-year-old child, but often behaves in adult ways such as speaking in an exaggerated upper-class British accent dialect.

Brian Griffin

Brian Griffin (voiced by Seth MacFarlane) is the family's 10-year-old (70 in human years)

anthropomorphic talking white Labrador Retriever
and the best friend of both Stewie and his father, Peter.

Extended Griffin family members

The characters listed below are the extended family of the Griffin family that come from either Peter's side of the family, Lois' side of the family, and the occasional members of Brian's family:

Throughout the series, mainly during the first seasons, Peter often mentions various ancestors of the Griffin family, which are shown in cutaway gags.

The Brown/Tubbs family

Cleveland Brown

Cleveland Orenthal Brown Sr. (voiced by Mike Henry from 1999-2021, Arif Zahir from 2021–present[1]) is a portly 42-year-old African-American man who is very polite to everyone and has a unique laugh. He was one of Peter Griffin's best friends in Family Guy and also owned and ran a deli. In the "Pilot" of The Cleveland Show, he moves to the town of Stoolbend, Virginia to show his son where he grew up, unintentionally meeting up with his old friend Donna, whom he was in love with despite her being unaware. Eventually re-sparking his relationship with her, they get married and he and his son move in with her and her two children. Cleveland is usually depicted as exceedingly gentle and patient, and it is only on rare occasions that he has been known to lose his temper and resort to violence. However, Cleveland gets visibly annoyed with racist behavior. He often acts as the voice of caution when other characters hatch harebrained schemes. Cleveland's speech is slow and almost elongated in Family Guy, but in The Cleveland Show his voice has a wide variety. Various flashbacks give conflicting histories of his speech patterns. He is shown as a more sexual, obnoxious, unintelligent, selfish, and violent character in his new form than he was originally. After the show wasn't renewed for a fifth season, Cleveland would move back to Quahog (and Family Guy) in the twelfth season, now working as a mailman.

Loretta Brown

Loretta Brown (voiced by Alex Borstein) is Cleveland's late ex-wife and the mother of Cleveland Brown Jr. in Family Guy. In early episodes, Loretta had a minimal quantity of lines, the bulk of which were "Mm-hmm!". She treated Cleveland harshly, and eventually cheated on him with Glenn Quagmire, leading them to divorce. She had a liking for cricket and the television program Friends. In The Cleveland Show episode "Gone With the Wind", she dies in a freak accident back in Quahog when in her 40s because Peter accidentally swings a Brontosaurus skeleton found by Brian from a mobile crane into her house, destroying it and causing her to fall from the second floor in her bathtub (in a similar manner to Cleveland in a running gag on Family Guy), only for her neck to snap. She was buried in Stoolbend, and left her fortune to Cleveland Jr. in her will.

Donna Tubbs-Brown

Donna Lou Retten Tubbs-Brown (née Tubbs) (voiced by Sanaa Lathan), is the second and current wife of Cleveland Brown. She is 42 years old and works as the principal's secretary at Stoolbend High School. She has two biological children from her previous marriage with Robert Unknown (His last name is literally "Unknown", which is a joke later in the series), Roberta and Rallo, and she has kept her maiden name (seen in "Pilot", Cleveland says, "Back in high school, I would have given anything to spend the night at Donna Tubbs' house."). While one of the main characters of The Cleveland Show, as of "He's Bla-ack!", she has now taken on the former role of the late Loretta as a recurring character of Family Guy.

Cleveland Brown Jr.

Cleveland Orenthal Brown Jr., (also referred to as Cleveland Raj Rerun Dwayne Brown)

The Cleveland-Loretta Quagmire" and has since become severely obese. He suffers from mild seizure-like episodes which he refers to as "brainstorms" and takes medication to control them. It was revealed in the episode "The Hurricane!" that he "doesn't believe in God", although he claims he is not an atheist either, which he calls "another religion". Junior is one of the main characters of The Cleveland Show and returns to the Family Guy cast as of "He's Bla-ack!
" as a recurring minor character.

Roberta Tubbs

Roberta Coretta Tubbs (sometimes Roberta Benigni Tubbs) (voiced by Nia Long and later Reagan Gomez-Preston) is the 15-year-old biological daughter of Donna and her ex-husband, Robert, Rallo's sister, Cleveland's stepdaughter and Cleveland Jr.'s stepsister. She looks up to Tyra Banks, hoping to one day become her co-hostess. A relatively popular girl in school, Roberta is often seen socializing with her friends, both in person, and using phones/social networking websites. She has been dating a less-than-respectable boy named Gabriel "Federline Jones" Friedman. Donna does not approve of Federline, though Cleveland has since managed to bully him into submission. As with many popular students, Roberta often acts as a bully and a self-centered character, even towards her own family members. She is also revealed to be a genius in The Cleveland Show Season 3 episode "B.M.O.C.", when she went on a college tour to Cleveland's alma mater, State.

Neither Roberta nor her brother Rallo are initially pleased with the arrival of Cleveland and Cleveland Brown Jr., though both appear to accept their mother marrying Cleveland without much issue. In fact, Roberta and Cleveland seem to fall into a rather stereotypical father/daughter relationship, with Roberta being embarrassed by her stepfather's behavior when he attends social functions at her school. Eventually she accepts Cleveland as her father. While one of the main characters of The Cleveland Show, as of "He's Bla-ack!", she is now occasionally referred to and less frequently seen on Family Guy. She's also the only member of the Tubbs family that has yet to speak in Family Guy (the video game Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff is not considered a speaking role).[3]

Rallo Tubbs

Montclair "Rallo" Tubbs (voiced by Mike Henry) is the 5-year-old biological son of Donna and her ex-husband, Robert, Roberta's brother, Cleveland's stepson and Cleveland Jr.'s stepbrother. Despite his age, and the fact his father has been mostly absent most of his life, Rallo acts much like Robert, behaving at times very articulate, yet hormonally charged. He seems to get along fairly well with his mother, Donna and has a normal love/hate relationship with Roberta, who at times seems to neglect him, yet at other times speaks to him as an intellectual equal.

In The Cleveland Show Season 3 episode "American Prankster", Cleveland asks Donna why his name is Rallo. Donna replies to that question by stating it was from "that guy from Sanford and Son." (referring to Rollo Larson). One of the main characters of The Cleveland Show, as of "He's Bla-ack!", he is now an infrequently-appearing cast member of Family Guy.

Extended Brown family members

  • Evelyn "Cookie" Brown (voiced by Frances Callier) is Cleveland's mother and Cleveland Brown Jr.'s paternal grandmother. Her first appearance was in the episode "A Brown Thanksgiving". She deeply cares for her son and is prone to babying him, but also often stands by her husband. She is hypercritical of her new daughter-in-law Donna, having never forgiven her for spurning Cleveland in favor of Robert in high school, although Cleveland is quite oblivious to their rough relationship. In "Baby Stewie", Cookie is stated to have died of a heart attack.
  • LeVar "Freight Train" Brown (voiced by Craig Robinson) is Cleveland's 63-year-old father, whose first appearance is in the episode "A Brown Thanksgiving". He tends to take his wife for granted and is often verbally and physically abusive to Cleveland; the latter is revealed to be because of the latter's ineptitude at a family game show when he was a kid, costing the Browns a victory.
  • Broderick Brown is Cleveland's brother and Cleveland Brown Jr.'s uncle who is a doctor who first appears in the
    Our Gang
    ", where it is revealed that he left his career as a plastic surgeon in Quahog to enlist in the navy, and he rescues Cleveland and Cleveland Jr. from a drug gang by trading Afghani heroin to the gang for their freedom.
  • Robert (voiced by Corey Holcomb) is Donna's 42-year-old ex-husband and the biological father of Roberta and Rallo. At the start of the show, he had grown negligent of the statuses of his children, not even knowing their names or ages, which convinced Donna to accept Cleveland as her true love.
  • Kevin "Auntie Momma" Tubbs (voiced by Kym Whitley as a female and Kevin Michael Richardson as a male) is Donna's caring, lovable, eccentric aunt who is in her 60s. She is a large, fat woman whose appearance and mannerisms are a parody of Tyler Perry's character Madea. Auntie Momma was originally Donna's Uncle Kevin and when Donna was younger, her parents were never around. So Uncle Kevin creates the character of Auntie Momma in order to provide Donna with a strong female influence in her life.
  • Dorothy "Dee Dee" Tubbs (voiced by
    Phylicia Rashād) is Donna Tubbs' long-lost mother, Cleveland's mother-in-law, Cleveland Brown Jr.'s step grandmother, and Roberta and Rallo's grandmother. In the Season Three episode "Mama Drama", they are reunited once again, and she becomes a recurring character for the remainder of the series. In the last episode of Season 4, Dee Dee begins a relationship with Robert (her daughter's ex-husband), and they adopt a 5-year-old Chinese boy named Quang Quang. In the Season 14 episode Candy, Quahog, Marshmallow!, it is revealed Dee Dee committed suicide
    .
  • Quang Quang (later Hong-Kong-Phooey) is the 5-year-old adopted Chinese boy of Dee Dee and Robert. This would make him Donna's adopted brother, Cleveland's adopted brother-in-law, Cleveland Brown Jr.'s adopted step-uncle, and both the adopted brother and uncle of Roberta and Rallo, who Donna refers to as their "bruncle". Near the end of the episode, Quang Quang was christened with the new name Hong-Kong-Phooey by Reverend Jenkins.

  • Mort Goldman (voiced by Johnny Brennan) is a pharmacist who is of Polish-Jewish descent, and one of Peter's friends. He runs Goldman's Pharmacy and was married to Muriel Goldman, with whom he had one son, Neil.

He gets remarried to a woman named Rachel in Season 19, though she has yet to appear in any later episodes.[citation needed]
  • Neil Goldman (voiced by Seth Green) is Mort's stereotypically nerdy son who is Chris' best friend at James Woods Regional High School, despite differing ages.

He is the editor of the school's newspaper, is a member of the A/V Club, and works at his father's pharmacy where he is employee of the month.
  • Muriel Goldman (voiced by Nicole Sullivan) is Mort's 42-year-old wife and Neil's mother, whose physical appearance is very similar to her husband's. She met Mort via a video dating service, and they had their first kiss at age fourteen while both were suffering from a cold. Muriel died in "And Then There Were Fewer", where she is stabbed by Diane Simmons upon becoming a witness to her plot to kill James Woods and frame Tom Tucker.

The following characters have worked with Peter and Cleveland at different jobs:

Happy-Go-Lucky Toy Factory

  • Mr. Jonathan Weed (voiced by
    Lois Kills Stewie", Stewie tells Lois, before attempting to shoot her, "Say hello to Cleveland for me, Oh, and Mr. Weed".[7]

Peter's ship

Pawtucket Brewery

  • Pawtucket Pat (voiced by Michael McKean) is the original Willy Wonka-like owner and mascot of the Pawtucket Patriot Brewery. So far, he has only appeared in the season 2 episode "Wasted Talent" and was mentioned in the season 4 episode "Jungle Love" when Peter started working at his brewery stating that Pat sold his brewery. A public statue of his ancestor - also called Pawtucket Pat - in the eponymous episode "Pawtucket Pat" becomes the center of controversy when it is revealed that he stole the recipe for Pawtucket Patriot Ale from the Narragansett tribe. After a publicized debate on whether or not the statue should be torn down, a group of Narragansett descendants intervene and their leader gives his say, stating that the pressing issue is not the injustices that Native Americans have faced in the past, but how society can help Native Americans today. Following this, the statue is relocated to the Quahog Museum.
  • Opie (voiced by
    Carlsbad Caverns") and is replaced by a deaf woman named Stella. He makes a cameo crowd appearance when Peter proposes reinstating the city government in "Tea Peter". Opie can also be seen as Stewie rides through town under Brian's car in "Family Guy Viewer Mail 2". In "The Simpsons Guy
    ", Opie attended the trial in Springfield between Duff Beer and Pawtucket Patriot Ale. In "Underage Peter", it is revealed that Opie is not disabled, but rather he spoke gibberish due to being constantly under the influence of alcohol.
  • Angela (voiced by Carrie Fisher) was the former overseer of the Pawtucket Brewery's shipping department, and the supervisor of Peter, Opie, and later Stella. She likes Opie far better than Peter, and treats Peter very coldly, repeatedly rewarding Opie as employee of the month. However, Angela fires Opie in "The Blind Side". Peter tried to befriend her based on her love of animals, but ended up horrifying her by staging a bloody cockfight in her house. In "Peter-assment", Angela sexually assaults Peter after he comes to work without wearing his glasses (which were broken at the time). After Peter refused to have sex with her and cheat on Lois, she tried to gas herself in her car. After Peter rescued her, it was revealed that she has not dated anyone in ten years. Feeling sorry for her, Peter disguised himself as a stereotypical 1920s New York billionaire and had sex with her. Angela knew it was really Peter, but what she did not know was that Peter, as a means of remaining faithful to Lois, hid Mort Goldman (who did it for $2) in his pants so it was Mort who actually had sex with her, not Peter. In "The Simpsons Guy", Angela attended the trial in Springfield between Duff Beer and Pawtucket Patriot Ale. Following Carrie Fisher's unexpected death on December 27, 2016, Seth MacFarlane revealed that Angela would appear on at least two more episodes that Fisher had already done voiceover work on in season 15, but would not comment on the character's future except by saying that "Family Guy will miss [Fisher] immensely."[8] Her final appearance was during the sixteenth-season episode "Don't Be A Dickens At Christmas", aired on December 10, 2017. The episode "Pawtucket Pete" states that Angela had died after going swimming less than 20 minutes after she had eaten, presumably by way of getting a stomach cramp and drowning, as claimed in Peter's eulogy for her. (Peter mentions to the audience, "That's a real thing, kids – listen to your mothers.")
  • Bert and Sheila (voiced by Bryan Cranston and Niecy Nash) are an interracial husband and wife who become the new managers of the Pawtucket Brewery Shipping Department in "Pawtucket Pete" following the death of Angela. They were hired to replace Angela because Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder's "Ebony and Ivory" was the favorite song of one of the Pawtucket Brewery's shareholders. The characters were dropped before season 20 for unknown reasons and they were succeeded by Preston Lloyd.
  • Fouad (voiced by
    Padre de Familia", Peter suspects that Fouad may be an illegal immigrant and is angered because of it. Fouad's voice is also heard off-camera in a DVD exclusive scene in "Three Kings". In "The Shawshank Redemption
    " segment, Captain Byron Hadley (played by Seamus) yells for lights out calling the inmates "ladies" and Fouad replies that it is funny because they are men.
  • Stella (voiced by Marlee Matlin) is an attractive deaf worker at the Pawtucket Brewery. She debuted in "The Blind Side" as Opie's successor.
  • Preston Lloyd (voiced by Peter Macon) is the no-nonsense overall manager of the Pawtucket Brewery who succeeds Bert and Sheila in season 20. Despite managing a brewery, he finds alcohol repulsive and does not drink. He speaks in a deep, monotone voice.

Waterman Cable

  • Lloyd Waterman (voiced by Bruce McGill) is the head of Waterman Cable who hires Cleveland to be a salesman. His workers are Terry and Tim the Bear.
  • Terry Kimple (voiced by Jason Sudeikis) is Cleveland's 42-year-old best friend from highschool who once took the fall for him when the two were busted for smoking marijuana.
  • Arch (voiced by Mike Henry) is an employee of Waterman Cable. He seems to be very serious, being quite a stickler when it comes to office etiquette.
  • Aaron (voiced by Alec Sulkin) is one of Cleveland's co-workers. He once helped Cleveland win a Civil War reenactment of "The Battle of Stoolbend" against B. Emerson Plunkett V.
  • Florence (voiced by Mike Henry) is Lloyd Waterman's assistant who seems to be more favored than the other employees.
  • Jane (voiced by Stacy Ferguson) is a worker at Waterman Cable.
