After more than two decades of off-the-wall humor, outrageous cutaway gags, and somehow still getting away with saying the most unfiltered things on network TV, Family Guy refuses to let up.
Season 23, which kicked off in early 2025, proves once again that Peter Griffin and the dysfunctional Quahog gang still have a lot of comedy fuel left in the tank.
Whether it's poking fun at Hollywood, riffing on courtroom drama, or spoofing vacation resorts, this season of Family Guy brings the laughs in all the absurd ways we’ve come to expect - and weirdly love.
The writers this time have leaned hard into social satire, surreal character arcs, and pop-culture takedowns. And even after all these years, Stewie’s wit is still sharper than your ex’s texts at 2 am. From musical moments to meme-worthy meltdowns, there’s something for every flavor of funny.
So here are the 8 funniest episodes from Family Guy’s 23rd season - ranked by how loud they made us laugh.
8 funniest Family Guy season 23 episodes, ranked
8) “The Chicken or the Meg” (Episode 5)
This episode gave Meg more to do than just absorb verbal abuse from the rest of the family - which is already a win. She joins a ridiculous reality dating show called Sex Farm and ends up developing feelings for a guy in a chicken costume. But the twist is that he’s Ernie the Giant Chicken’s son...because, of course, he is.
The story is just as ridiculous as it sounds, but it works because everyone is fully committed to the absurdity. Peter absolutely loses it when he finds out, and what follows is a chaotic blend of family drama and poultry-based slapstick.
It’s not the deepest episode of Family Guy season 23, but it gets points for giving Meg a storyline that’s not just sad and awkward...well, at least not entirely.
7) “Lois C.K.” (Episode 4)
Lois finally gets tired of being the sensible one and decides to try stand-up comedy, and to everyone’s surprise - including her own, she’s hilarious. Her entire routine centers around Peter’s stupidity, which makes her an instant hit at local comedy nights.
Naturally, Peter can’t handle the fact that people are laughing at his expense. What follows is Peter trying to “win back” his dignity in increasingly pathetic ways, from writing his bad jokes to crashing Lois’s gigs.
The episode has some strong commentary on relationships and jealousy, but mostly, it’s just really funny watching Lois have her moment. Family Guy rarely gives her the spotlight, but when it does, she usually delivers.
6) “Dog Is My Co‑Pilot” (Episode 6)
Brian somehow goes from casual gamer to real-life pilot in 22 minutes, and honestly - that’s kind of the charm of this one. After getting hooked on a flight simulator app, Brian convinces Quagmire to let him co-pilot an actual plane. Against all odds, he doesn’t crash, and the town treats him like a hero.
There’s a lot of fun in watching Brian try to play the part of a suave, experienced aviator while Quagmire slowly boils with jealousy. Meanwhile, back in Quahog, Stewie and Chris start a pizza business using a toy oven - and it’s just as chaotic as it sounds.
It’s one of those episodes where the side plot and the main story complement each other perfectly. Nothing here makes logical sense, but it’s Family Guy, so who’s really looking for logic?
5) “A Real Who’s Hulu” (Episode 10)
True crime lovers will appreciate this one - when Chris gets accused of stealing from his school, the show spins the situation into a full-blown parody of every streaming docuseries you’ve ever binged at 2 AM.
Think dramatic narration, unnecessary slow-motion, and overly intense music - used to describe someone forgetting their backpack. Stewie narrates the whole thing in a voice that sounds like a mix between David Attenborough and a crime podcast host, which just adds to the comedy.
The best moments come from the townspeople reacting to minor details like they’re uncovering a massive conspiracy - it’s smart, funny, and nails the tone of those streaming hits we all pretend we’re not obsessed with.
4) “Pitch Imperfect” (Episode 7)
Peter, for reasons that are never fully explained, decides to start an a cappella group. And of course, he takes it way too seriously - he drags Joe, Cleveland, and Quagmire into it, forces them to rehearse constantly, and treats their off-key harmonies like they’re a matter of national importance.
The musical moments are hilarious precisely because they’re so off - Peter’s confidence in his terrible singing is both painful and funny. Stewie gets involved too, judging auditions like a snarky Simon Cowell.
In the end, nobody can stand each other, and their big performance is a disaster. But the journey is pure Family Guy chaos, and definitely worth watching.
3) “The Fat Lotus” (Episode 13)
If you’ve seen The White Lotus, you already know where this is headed - the Griffins win a luxury vacation, and things unravel almost immediately. Peter becomes obsessed with all-you-can-eat shrimp, Lois tries to “rediscover herself,” and Stewie spends the entire trip pretending to be an elite travel influencer.
Brian tries to hook up with an Instagram wellness guru, and Chris gets recruited into a bizarre meditation cult. It’s part vacation comedy, part influencer satire, and all kinds of weird!
Family Guy does a great job mocking how people act when they’re trying too hard to be “zen,” and the visuals give it a fresh, summery vibe. It’s one of the more stylized episodes of the season, and the spoof lands surprisingly well.
2) “Row v. Wade” (Episode 16)
This Family Guy season 23 episode goes all in on social commentary, while still staying completely ridiculous - after Brian wins a boat, he sails to Texas and accidentally becomes part of a floating courtroom offering reproductive health services in international waters.
Peter declares himself the judge, which goes exactly how you'd expect. The episode doesn’t shy away from its subject matter, but it handles things with enough absurdity that it doesn’t feel like a lecture.
Peter’s “rulings” are bonkers, Stewie dresses like a pirate lawyer, and Quagmire delivers a weirdly moving speech about bodily autonomy - before immediately undercutting it with a bad pun. It’s edgy, but it’s also undeniably funny.
1) “Drunk with Power” (Episode 3)
Topping the list is the episode where Peter becomes a Supreme Court Justice after a drunken night out with Brett Kavanaugh...yes, that’s the actual setup. Peter takes over Kavanaugh’s seat and immediately starts making rulings based on personal grudges and nonsense ideas.
He bans pineapple on pizza, mandates karaoke on Thursdays, and rules that Lois can’t stop him from using the backyard as a wrestling ring. The entire legal system falls apart in a matter of hours, and Peter couldn’t be happier. This is Family Guy at its most chaotic - no logic, no boundaries, just jokes coming in rapid fire.
What really sells it is how confidently Peter abuses his power, and how everyone around him just kind of rolls with it. It’s the kind of episode that reminds you why Family Guy has lasted this long - it’s ridiculous, unpredictable, and endlessly quotable.

Conclusion
Season 23 may not reinvent the formula, but it proves Family Guy still knows how to push boundaries while making us laugh. Whether it’s through sharp parodies, absurd plot twists, or just watching Peter screw things up again and again - the show still has that weird, chaotic magic that fans keep coming back for.
