Which characters are featured in a “Family Guy” corn maze at a Massachusetts farm?”
Family Guy has five main cast members, most of whom play several roles. MacFarlane voices three of the show’s main characters, Peter Griffin, Brian Griffin and Stewie Griffin.[18] He has stated that he already knew what kind of voice he was looking for the main characters so it was easier to do it himself.[19] Peter’s voice is inspired by the voice of a security guard MacFarlane overheard talking while attending the Rhode Island School of Design.[20] Stewie’s voice was based on the voice of English actor Rex Harrison,[21] particularly on Harrison’s performance in the 1964 musical drama film My Fair Lady.[22] Brian’s voice is MacFarlane’s regular speaking voice.[19] In addition MacFarlane provides the voice of various recurring and one-time characters, most prominently those of the Griffin’s neighbor Glenn Quagmire, news anchor Tom Tucker and Lois’ father Carter Pewterschmidt.[23][24] Alex Borstein voices Lois Griffin, Asian correspondent Tricia Takanawa, Loretta Brown and Lois’ mother
Stewie and Brian form the centrepiece of this year’s seven acre “Corn Maize” at Connors Farm in Danvers, Massachusetts. Bob Connors, the owner of the farm, has even approached Seth MacFarlane in the hope of persuading the Family Guy creator to pay a visit. “We’ve been trying to get in touch with him. I’d love to have him do the voices here on our busy weekend,” he told the Boston Globe. The makers of Family Guy, a sharp comedy about an average American family with a talking dog, posed no objections to the use of its characters in the maze. The programme is shown on the Fox Network in the US, and BBC3 in Britain. “They waived the rights and all that,” Mr Connors added. “We have to run everything by them, but they’ve been great.” While corn, tomatoes and other crops are still grown on the farm, it boosts its income with an annual maze and other activities to attract families, including hayrides and fruit picking.
