It is no secret that Chris spends a healthy portion of his day watching television shows. His preferences become apparent not only because he will constantly force you to listen to him talk about them, but also because Chris, in his infinite originality, likes to take phrases and sentences from shows and use them verbatim in his everyday speech. This article attempts to list all of these occurrences, especially those he has used repeatedly.
Seth MacFarlane shows
Seth MacFarlane is the creator of the animated sitcoms Family Guy, The Cleveland Show and American Dad!. Needless to say, as he is a huge fan of his shows, it's inevitable that most of Chris's stolen phrases come from his shows.
