Don't look now, but Family Guy is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. (Yes, it has really been that long.) The long-running animated series, which just concluded its 22nd season, debuted in 1999. With the help of subversive humor from creator Seth MacFarlane, the series about a Rhode Island family and their talking dog continues to feature big musical numbers, whip-smart satire, and downright hilarious jokes. Family Guy's main voice cast, which consists of MacFarlane, Seth Green, Mila Kunis, and Alex Borstein, recently sat down with Esquire to reminisce about a quarter of a century of TV greatness. "When I started in the business, I thought that if I could create something that people either fall asleep to or get high to, then I would really feel like a writer," MacFarlane says. |

Sadly, I don't live in the golden age of movie titles. I live in 2024, when they're so damn long that they don't even fit on the billboard. Mission: Impossible—Dead Reckoning, Part One? No, thank you. Welcome to the era of bad movie titles. If you brought a person from the late seventies or early eighties into the present, their brain would melt at the mere thought of a film branded Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. They would weep at the fact that Star Wars is now Star Wars: Episode IV—A New Hope. When they saw Raiders of the Lost Ark in 1981, it didn't even faze them that a name as cool as Indiana Jones wasn't in the title. Sorry, but I'm not done. In 2023, I convinced a robot that I knew which images were stoplights just to prove that I was a human man who wanted to buy tickets to a film titled Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. When Joker: Folie à Deux comes out later this year, I'll think of the glorious premiere of Jaws as I ask myself the following questions: Is the Joker French now? |

There's never been a better time to shop the North Face. Why is that, you ask? Well, don't get me wrong—the brand's deals around the holidays are great, but its pre-summer sales are a true blast. Puffy, heavy winter outerwear is marked down, and alongside it are reduced prices on accessories, pants, tees, hoodies, and shoes that are so versatile, you can still wear 'em all spring and summer. There's also never been a better time to shop the North Face because today, I did all the hard work for you. Not only did I scour TNF's site for the best marked-down deals, but I also searched Internet retailers far and wide to score all the best-of-the-best deals, which is why below you can snag outerwear, clothing, and accessories for up to 50 percent off. |
