Quahog 5

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quahog 5 (WQHG) is the local television station the FOX network TV show Family Guy. The two anchors, Tom and Diane, have been present since the beginning of the show, and have become two of the most prominent characters.

1 Tom Tucker
2 Diane Simmons
3 Ollie Williams
4 Tricia Takkanawa

[edit] Tom Tucker

Tom Tucker is an arrogant, baritone news caster, who wears a faux moustache. Although being in his second marriage, to a woman named Stacy (whom he hates), he has had several affairs with prostitutes. He has a son named Jake Tucker from his first marriage; Jake is very spoiled due to the fact that his face is upside-down and everyone is afraid of him.

Tom has an odd resemblance to Ron Burgundy from the Will Ferrell movie Anchorman. Tom is not one to be politically correct, as he refers to Tricia Takkanawa as the station's "top Asian reporter" and announces the "Black-U-Weather" forecast with Ollie Williams.

[edit] Diane Simmons

Diane Simmons is Tom's coworker. Diane Simmons' maiden name is Diane Seidelman, hinting that she is Jewish. She has a disliking for black people, and has been called a bitch by Tom Tucker. Diane has her own Jerry Springer-esque talk show, and originally was going to star in Peter's version of The King and I.

[edit] Ollie Williams

Ollie Williams is the black meteorologist on Quahog 5 News' weather segment, the Black-U-Weather (a play on AccuWeather) forecast, and is reminiscent of Al Roker. His forecasts are generally very concise and to the point, generally being less than 10 words long (for example, "it's gonna rain!").
