Family Guy: Every Season Ranked Worst To Best (So Far)

17. Season 18

Season 18 has the worst elements of Season 12 and 16 - there's not a single great vignette even though the storylines are oozing with potential.

When you have scenarios retelling the stories of the Bible, Hamlet, or Disney rebooting Family Guy as a Marvelesque series, you'd imagine the writers had a field day cramming in as many wisecracks as possible.

But because these episodes are so aimlessly derivative, it feels like the creative team are clawing to stay relevant rather than telling a genuinely good story. Episodes like Rich Old Stewie, which focuses on Stewie as an adult, are funny but don't leave much of an impression. After checking out a couple of episodes from Season 18, you'll feel like checking out for good.
