Family Guy premiered on Fox in 1999, created by Seth MacFarlane. Its theme was composed by Walter Murphy with lyrics by MacFarlane and David Zuckerman, deliberately imitating classic American musical theatre and vaudeville openings. The sequence parodies wholesome family sitcoms while the lyrics complain that modern television has lost traditional values. Despite cancellation and revival in 2005, the show became a long running adult animation staple, and the intro remains widely parodied, remixed and reused in memes, edits and soundboard collections online.

The Family Guy intro theme song, the big band opening from the animated sitcom with the Griffin family singing on stage, used for TV and cartoon edits.
This is the opening theme from Family Guy, a fast, cheerful big band number performed like an old fashioned stage show. The Griffin family appears in tuxedos and evening dresses on a theatre staircase, singing about traditional values while dancing in unison. Brass, piano and a full chorus drive the melody, ending with the whole cast gathered around the piano. The contrast between the wholesome musical style and the show's crude humour is the joke, making the clip instantly recognisable and perfect for signalling a silly, nostalgic cartoon moment.
