As someone who lives on the border near RI, I can tell you that Peters accent was very accurate as to how people in RI talk.

[Henerz]

Thought that was going in a different direction based on the first line

The one character Seth MacFarlane doesn't have to change his voice in Family Guy is Brian. Lol

Gosh really loved the song flying without wings. Your Irish accent has faded fast!! 😅

[whitford]

Why does he look like he's wearing a human mask?

[DittoGTI]

Me not realising that hes not putting on Brians voice in this

[fightthefeeling]

one of the most iconic shows of all time.
they have some of the most recognizable voices & characters in cartoons besides the simpsons.

I wonder who that guy is, he created a whole series by his voice

[qualqui]

Seth is AWESOME, he does most of Family guy characters, just excluding Meg(Mila Kunis) and Joe Swanson(that actor who portrayed David Puddy, Elaine's boyfriend).
