Family Guy had been cancelled in 2002 due to low ratings, but was revived by Fox after reruns on Adult Swim
became the network's most watched program, and more than three million DVDs of the show were sold. "North by North Quahog" was the first episode to air following the series' revival.
. The show was first canceled after the 1999–2000 season, but following a last-minute reprieve, it returned for a third season in 2001. Fox tried to sell rights for reruns of the show, but it was hard to find networks that were interested; Cartoon Network
eventually bought the rights, " basically for free", according to the president of 20th Century Fox Television Production. When the reruns were shown on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim
in 2002, Family Guy became Adult Swim's most-watched show with an average 1.9 million viewers per episode. Following Family Guys high ratings on Adult Swim, the first season was released on DVD in April 2003. Sales of the DVD set reached 2.2 million copies, becoming the best-selling television DVD of 2003 and the second highest-selling television DVD ever, behind the first season of Comedy Central
's Chappelle's Show
. The second season DVD release also sold more than a million copies. The show's popularity in both DVD sales and reruns rekindled Fox's interest. They ordered 35 new episodes in 2004, marking the first revival of a television show based on DVD sales. Fox president Gail Berman
said that it was one of her most difficult decisions to cancel the show, and was therefore happy it would return. The network also began production of a film based on the show.
"North by North Quahog" was the first episode to be broadcast after the show's cancellation. It was written by MacFarlane and directed by Peter Shin
. MacFarlane believed the show's three year hiatus was beneficial because animated shows do not normally have hiatuses, and towards the end of their seasons "... you see a lot more sex jokes and (bodily function) jokes and signs of a fatigued staff that their brains are just fried". With "North by North Quahog", the writing staff tried to keep the show "... exactly as it was" before its cancellation, and did not "... have the desire to make it any slicker" than it already was. Walter Murphy
, who had composed music for the show before its cancellation, returned to compose the music for "North by North Quahog". Murphy and the orchestra recorded an arrangement of Bernard Herrmann
's score
from North by Northwest
, a film referenced multiple times in the episode.
Fox had ordered five episode scripts at the end of the third season; these episodes had been written but not produced. One of these scripts was adapted into "North by North Quahog". The original script featured Star Wars
character Boba Fett
, and later actor, writer and producer Aaron Spelling
, but the release of the iconic film The Passion of the Christ
inspired the writers to incorporate Mel Gibson into the episode. Multiple endings were written, including one in which Death comes for Gibson. During production, an episode of South Park
was released entitled "The Passion of the Jew
" that also featured Gibson as a prominent character. This gave the Family Guy writers pause, fearing accusations " that we had ripped them off."
; "North by North Quahog", the premiere episode was broadcast as part of an animated television night on Fox, alongside two episodes of The Simpsons
and the pilot episode
of American Dad!
. The episode was watched by 11.85 million viewers, the show's highest ratings since the airing of the first season
episode "Brian: Portrait of a Dog
". Its ratings also surpassed the ratings of both episodes of The Simpsons and American Dad!. Season four's three-part finale was watched by 8.2 million viewers, bringing the season average to 7.9 million viewers per episode.
In addition, the season was nominated for a number of awards. In 2005, the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences nominated "North by North Quahog" for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program (for Programming Less Than One Hour)
. It nominated "PTV
" in the same category one year later. Neither of the episodes won the award, as South Park
received the award in 2005 and The Simpsons was the eventual recipient of the award in 2006. Peter Shin
and Dan Povenmire
were both nominated for an Annie Award
in the Best Directing in an Animated Television Production category, for directing "North by North Quahog" and "PTV" respectively; Shin eventually won the award. MacFarlane won the Annie Award for Best Voice-over Performance for providing the voice of Stewie in "Brian the Bachelor
". At the Annie Awards the following year, John Viener was nominated in the category Writing in an Animated Television Production, for writing "Untitled Griffin Family History", but lost the award to Ian Maxtone-Graham
, who wrote the episode of The Simpsons titled "The Seemingly Neverending Story". The editors of the episode "Blind Ambition" won the Motion Picture Sound Editors
Golden Reel Award
for Best Sound Editing in Television Animated.
Season four met with positive reviews from critics. Reviewing the season premiere, Mark McGuire of The Times Union wrote: "... the first minute or so of the resurrected Family Guy ranks among the funniest 60 seconds I've seen so far this season." The Pitt News
reviewer John Nigro felt that the show had not lost its steam while it was on hiatus, and was surprised that the show had been canceled because of its "wildly extravagant shock factor". Nigro cited "Breaking Out is Hard to Do
", "Petarded
" and "Perfect Castaway" as the season's best episodes. In 2007 BBC Three
named the episode "PTV" "The Best Episode...So Far". The episode has also been praised by Maureen Ryan of the Chicago Tribune
, who called it "Family Guys most rebellious outing yet". The Boston Globe
critic Matthew Gilbert felt Family Guys fourth season was as "crankily irreverent as ever".
Fewer critics responded negatively to the season; Seattle Post-Intelligencer
critic Melanie McFarland reacted very negative, stating "Three years off the air has not made the 'Family Guy' team that much more creative". Critics of both Popmatters
and IGN
criticized the first few episodes but felt the show regained its humor after "Don't Make Me Over"; IGN's Mike Drucker commented "At that point, we get some amazingly creative humor. It's almost like MacFarlane and gang decided they had thanked their fans enough and could return to what made the show successful in the first place." Bill Brioux of the Toronto Star
felt the show was too similar to The Simpsons. Media watchdog group the Parents Television Council
, a frequent critic
of the show, branded the episodes "North by North Quahog", "The Father, the Son, and the Holy Fonz
", "Brian Sings and Swings
", "Patriot Games
", and "The Courtship of Stewie's Father
" as "worst show of the week".
