5 Places to Watch Family Guy Online -- Free and Pay

Image via Wikipedia

One of the most vexing problems in life when you really like a show is to not be able to find that show online and streaming. Such has been my problem lately with Family Guy. However, I have done the research (so you don't have to) and can suggest five places to watch Family Guy online, both free sites and ones where you have to pay to play.

1. Hulu Plus
Cost: Currently 7.99$ per month
Description: Hulu offers a streaming service for Family Guy and other popular T.V. shows for about 8 bucks per month. The video quality is excellent, the interface clean, and your 8 bucks buys you access to lots of other T.V. shows as well.
Recommended: If you're not broke

2.  Fox Online: Fox also offers a streaming service for some Family Guy episodes, mostly from the current season. The service is free, but the number of episodes are limited. Still, if you stay pretty current with the series and are just looking to catch an episode that you missed, this is probably the place to go.
Recommended: If you missed last week

3. wfgo.com This is one of the better maybe-legal-maybe-not sites out there to watch Family Guy on the computer. Even though the video quality is pretty good here, my objections to these sorts of sites are that 1) They have a butt load of ads and 2) They might not be there in a week. Still, if you're willing to sort through the annoying popups, this site is pretty good.
Recommended: If you don't mind ads

 4. Megavideo: This site is similar to wfgo.com but has less popups and worse video resolution. Again, if you are looking for a pirate site, this one is probably as good as any.
Recommended: If you don't care about resolution

 5. Amazon Video: This is a pay-per-episode service which will allow you to buy Family Guy on a per-episode basis. If you're really passionate about the series, or if you just have a favorite episode that you like to watch over and over, this is probably the place for you.
Recommended: If you want to buy the episodes

An alternative to tvshack.cc or tvshack.net

As you all probably know -- or could find out quickly by visiting the site -- tvshack.cc, tvshack.net, tvshack. whatever has been shut down by the government, allegedly for copyright infringement. While I don't know if these allegations are true or not, what I do know is that many of us need to find a new place to watch our favorite episodes of TV and see our favorite spam for Russian mail order brides. However my readers are in luck as I am going to show you another site where you can go to watch your favorite TV shows for free -- at least until that site gets shut down too.

The site is http://www.tv-dome.net. I haven't searched around too much on this site, but so far, I've been able to find the latest episodes of Family Guy, including a very funny Christmas episode.

How long will this site stay up? Who knows, but enjoy it while it lasts.
