Here is a list of the relatively unknown characters in the animated TV series "Family Guy":

	Mayor Adam West – Mayor of Quahog, voiced by (and even resembles) the real life Adam West. Extremely incompetent and eccentric, he displays more than a few symptoms of delusion. He is said to be an idiot and no one knows why he became Mayor. After Lois abdicates the office of Mayor, he automatically assumes that the job is his once more. When someone questions him on this, he takes out a gun and shoots them.
	Anna - A girl that works at the local vet and Chris' girlfriend. After taking bad advice from Peter they broke up briefly, but they made up and are presumably still together. Voiced by Amanda Bynes.
	Al Harrington - Fast-talking owner of "Al Harrington's Wacky, Waving, Inflatable, Arm-Flailing, Tube-men Emporium and Warehouse!". In the episode "The Former Life of Brian", apparently due to an recent lawsuit, he needs to sell "Crudely Painted, Not-So-Funny, Plywood, Cut-Out Folk Art!". He also appeared in the episode Blue Harvest selling "Intergalactic, Proton-powered, Electrical-tentacled, Advertising Droids!" under the name of Darth Harrington. Voiced by Danny Smith.
	Barber Shop Quartet – Appear in a cutaway gag (in The Cleveland-Loretta Quagmire) with Peter to inform a patient of his AIDS diagnosis by singing the infamous "You Have AIDS" song (with a song and dance routine). Their second appearance (in Sibling Rivalry) is also medical-related, explaining to Peter what a vasectomy is. They are unnamed, and occasionally the Bass part is shifted between two similar-looking characters. Not to be confused with Vern and Johnny, two vaudeville performers who also show up in cutaway gags.
	Bruce the Performance Artist - Mustached homosexual who speaks in a calm, southern-like drawn-out voice with a slight lisp, with the catchphrase of "Oh noooo". His first appearance was in the episode Chitty Chitty Death Bang, where he was a horror novelty shop clerk. His name was finally revealed to be Bruce in the season five episode No Chris Left Behind. In The Cleveland-Loretta Quagmire he teaches a CPR course, and appears on the school board committee of James Woods Regional High School in Peter's Got Woods and No Chris Left Behind; in Petergeist he is shown as being a medium with Native American spirits, and in Peter's Two Dads, he is a hypnotherapist.In Mr. Saturday Knight it is revealed that his only means of transportation is a morbidly obese donkey. As evidenced in the episode Stewie Kills Lois Bruce may have a boyfriend or relative living with him named Jeffrey (as heard in the episode McStroke) whom he may have met in "No Chris Left Behind"; this character is not seen, but h
	Dr. Bruce Kaplan – Brian's psychiatrist. He speaks with a very calm, soothing voice. Dr. Kaplan helped Brian realize his love for Lois in Brian in Love, which has since become a running gag. Voiced by Sam Waterston and later by Wally Wingert.
	Buzz Killington - A well-dressed British man from the early 20th century. His name is a play on the term "buzzkill". He has so far appeared twice; once in "Whistle While Your Wife Works", and again in "Believe it or Not, Joe's Walking on Air". He is what one would imagine to be "cool" in early-20th-century times, but is a complete and utter buzz-kill by modern standards; hence his name, and from whence the humor surrounding him derives. Peter groans and cups his forehead, like he has a migraine, at the end of every one of Buzz's scenes.
	Carl - The owner of a local Quahog convenience store. He is currently Chris' boss and was previously Meg's boss. He speaks in a calm, somewhat monotone voice and shows almost no emotion regarding anything happening around him. He previously made small, occasional appearances, often discussing an interest in certain actresses, the first of these appearances being in Deep Throats. He employs Meg and later Chris in Movin' Out (Brian's Song). He develops a friendship with Chris over their mutual interests in movies. He later fires Meg for arguing with him over a promotion, followed by briefly re-hiring her before she turned down the chance to work there again. Chris is still assumed to be employed there. He is voiced by H. Jon Benjamin.
	Dr. Elmer Hartman – A physician who works at the local hospital. Has been sued by every patient he ever had due to the fact he's not very good at his job (however, during season six he was portrayed as a very good doctor, with none of his usual antics whatsoever). Dr. Hartman is Stewie's pediatrician. He is known for delaying news about Peter's health with various forms of shtick, all of which initially appear to be bad news ("Now, onto the cancer...You are a Cancer, right? You were born in July?"). He is voiced by Seth MacFarlane (MacFarlane points out during a few DVD commentaries[citation needed] that Dr. Hartman's voice and the voice for Lois' father are nearly identical (in a scene in "Believe it or Not, Joe's Walking on Air", this is directly referenced in a scene with Mr. Pewterschmidt and Dr. Hartman). He is named after Seth MacFarlane's friend Butch Hartman, whose real name is Elmer, creator of shows The Fairly Odd Parents and Danny Phantom.
	Ernie the Giant Chicken - A human-sized chicken who holds a grudge against Peter. The rivalry between him and Peter is first seen when he gives Peter an expired coupon in Da Boom following which they had a long, destructive fight. Since then, Ernie has appeared on four occasions, including "Blind Ambition", and "No Chris Left Behind",[28][29] where his name was revealed to be Ernie and it was shown that he has a wife named Nicole, also a human-sized chicken. His fights with Peter are very elaborate and destructive. Peter has won every fight to date and at the end of each fight, Peter walks off and leaves him for dead, only for Ernie to show some sign of life, implying that he and Peter will fight yet again.[30][31] Ernie's appearances are often random, with him tackling Peter out of nowhere or staring at him through a window mid-conversation. After the fights are over, Peter returns to what he was doing, injuries and all, as if nothing happened. He will appear in the episode "Something
	The Evil Monkey – A monkey that lives in Chris's closet. Whenever Chris mentions it, he looks in the general direction of his bedroom, upon which the monkey is seen pointing at him shakily, and then returning to Chris's room, much to Chris's horror. Chris tries to tell his family about the existence of the Evil Monkey but, so far, only Stewie believes him. In the show's universe, the monkey was not originally evil, but became so after catching his wife in bed with another monkey, which, according to Seth MacFarlane, leaves him "not so much evil as embittered". When Chris is out of the house, the Evil Monkey is having time off from gesturing and likes to smoke pot and listen to Foghat. As of It Takes a Village Idiot, and I Married One, he is now a Jehovah's Witness. The only other characters who have seen the monkey are Peter (in "Stewie Loves Lois"), Brian's son Dylan (in "The Former Life of Brian) and Old Man Herbert. Peter mistook the monkey for Meg, so he still doesn't appear to kno
	Greased Up Deaf Guy – Has been featured in several cameos since his first appearance in "The Thin White Line". He can speak well, but somewhat out of tone, accentuating his parody of the hearing-impaired. He asks only that people "Don't judge me, I'm just doing my thing!" He is always shown running, even when stopped he will continue to run in place and flail his arms. In "North by North Quahog," he gives Brian drugs to plant in Jake Tucker's locker. He used to be a lawyer until he got addicted to crack. Voiced by Mike Henry.[33]
	Herbert – An elderly ephebophile and pedophile who resides just down the street from the Griffins and impotently lusts after Chris and other young boys and kids.[34] Voiced by Mike Henry.
	Horace - The owner and bartender of the Drunken Clam, voiced by John G. Brennan.
	James William Bottomtooth III - Brian's co-worker at The New Yorker in "Brian Goes Back to College". He has a comicly oversized jaw and his speech is impossible to understand. He refuses to sign a petition against Mayor Adam West's anti-gay marriage bill in "You May Now Kiss the...Uh...Guy Who Receives" because he's a fundamentalist Christian. He has a son, James William Bottomtooth IV, who attends Morningwood Academy. He has a strong resemblance to his father, namely the large bottom jaw and speech. Like his classmates, he holds a strong antipathy for Chris, as seen in "No Chris Left Behind".
	Jesse - Herbert's extremely old pet dog. Due to being unable to use his hind legs, Jesse drags himself across the ground with his front legs to move. Unlike Brian, Jesse doesn't talk, though he does make sounds similar to Herbert's "Hmmmmm" implying that he can speak, but chooses not to.
	Jillian - Brian's incredibly sexy and dumb blonde former girlfriend, seen in Whistle While Your Wife Works, Prick Up Your Ears, Chick Cancer, Barely Legal, Boys Do Cry and Movin' Out (Brian's Song). The only girlfriend Brian has had for more than one episode, he stays with her purely for sex, while Stewie and Lois find her stupidity hilarious. She is bulimic, which has resulted in her no longer being able to get her period. She also wears a dog collar, complete with a license, that is identical to Brian's (possibly a gift from Brian himself; the fact that she doesn't remove it after leaving him hints that they may get back together). Brian often uses a flashlight to distract Jillian when he does not wish to go out. She breaks up with Brian in Movin' Out (Brian's Song), having opted to date Mayor Adam West when it is revealed that Brian did not want a mutual relationship with her. She is voiced by Drew Barrymore.
	Jim Kaplan- A local Quahog con man. Though he displays typical qualities of a scheming business man, he is able to convince Peter to buy just about anything for nearly any price, including Volcano Insurance , a TiVo, the tank in "Hell Comes to Quahog" and feety pajamas in No Meals on Wheels. He is usually seen wearing a green and purple checkered jacket. It is unknown if he is related to the aforementioned Bruce Kaplan, Brian's psychiatrist. In the episode There's Something About Paulie the used car salesman introduces himself as 'Doug', not 'Jim'. He is also portrayed as having blond hair in the episode I Am Peter, Hear Me Roar instead of the usual orange. Voiced by Danny Smith. He was also a banker and a Tattoo artist in the episode Fish Out Of Water and in Ready, Willing, and Disabled.
	Judge- A judge in Quahog who handles practically every case in the series. His rulings are usually extremely biased against the defendant, regardless of the circumstances. He has never been referred to by name in the series. Voiced by Phil LaMarr.
	Paddy Tanninger the Caddy Manager (deceased) – Manager of Quahog golf course. Hired Chris as a 'ball shagger', which immediately doubled his business because everyone wanted to "nail the fat kid". Prior to his job as the caddy manager, he managed Brian at the Quahog Hummer Dealership in The Perfect Castaway. Wants to fight over practically everything. His catch phrase is "Big whoop, wanna fight about it?" He gets run over by a tank driven by Brian in Hell Comes to Quahog. In the commentary for the episode, director Dan Povenmire stated that he didn't like the character, so he decided to kill him off.
	Phineas & Barnaby - Two sideshow strongmen who appear in random instances, such as in the gym in Bill and Peter's Bogus Journey.
	RJ - A man who always talks about how he's trying to "bone [his] girlfriend". In the episode Boys Do Cry, during an interview with Tom Tucker, he claims that he once saw Bigfoot while making love with his girlfriend at the lake. He also talks about things that he says make his girlfriend say that "there was no way". He speaks with a sluggish Yooper dialect, misleading some to believe that he is Canadian. He also made a cameo in "Blue Harvest" as a stormtrooper. Voiced by Mike Henry.
	Rupert – Stewie's favorite teddy bear. Stewie treats Rupert as if he were real, and Stewie thinks he is gay. Once when waiting to board a plane he was left in charge of watching the bags, which got stolen because, according to Stewie, he was "looking at the boys again", including one who looked like Tab Hunter. Apparently, Stewie sees him as an athletic man with a teddy bear's head, as seen in the episodes Stewie Loves Lois and Stewie Kills Lois.
	Seamus - A wise old sailor, with wooden peg arms and legs and talks with a pirate accent. Despite having peg-limbs he can dance, play the organ very well, and can fight an octopus. Seamus is known for often attempting to be both dramatic and comical, but often ruins these moments by awkwardly asking for people's opinions of his performance or summarizing his previous statements.
	Steve - A man with MND who is a parody of Stephen Hawking. He is introduced in "Ready, Willing, and Disabled" as Joe's taunting archrival in the Special People's Games. He has a more expanded role in Brian Goes Back to College as Brian's physics professor at Brown University. It is shown in this episode that he has a wife, who apparently also has MND, and that he was suicidal before grading one of Brian's assignments, which was actually completed by Stewie.
	Vern and Johnny (deceased) – A vaudeville duo who usually show up in unlikely places in response to random bits of dialogue. In the episode, "Peter Peter Caviar Eater", it is given that the performer/singer's name is Vern, who (when their act fails) calls to the pianist "Play me off, Johnny!". Aside from this recurring cutaway gag, they also appear in the Quahog Talent Show with a dog performing tricks. They are shot multiple times and killed by Stewie in "Saving Private Brian", who was fed up with their constant and unnecessary appearances. Stewie says, "They're dead, all right? We're not gonna be seeing them again". However, Vern re-appears as a ghost in "Back to the Woods" while Johnny appears in Hell because he, according to Vern, "liked little boys." Vern and Johnny are not to be confused with the similarly-dressed Barber Shop Quartet.
