14	* ''Synopsis'': A fan-made remastered
15	* ''Comments'': For ones who what a more expanded newer take on Family Guy made by loyal fans, this is the site! It adds more continuity, has original plots, and even makes the world feel more evolving (in one of the "episodes", Kevin gets shipped to Iraq and Chris graduates from Middle School, two parts that happened off-screen in the real show).

20	''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3937534/1/Attack_of_the_100_Foot_Meg_Griffin Attack of the 100 Foot Meg Griffin]]'' by Grey-X
21	* It has [[FanFic/AttackOfThe100footMegGriffin its own article now]].
22	* Recommended by {{Tropers/Burstkiller}} and Tropers/HappyMan
23	* ''Status'': Completed
24	* ''Synopsis'': Meg Griffin has always been treated like a reject and an outcast, even by her own family. But when exposure to a strange meteorite transforms her into a towering giantess and she finally snaps, everyone in Quahog had better watch out.
25	* ''Comments'': For those who been wanting a Meg revenge fic, this one will finally feed your hunger. Great characterizations, a plot that is solid from top to bottom and anime-flavored manatee gags that will leave you in tears. Fic has a very good pre-revival vibe to it and after reading, you might join the other reviewers in telling the author to send it in to Seth himself.

28	''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5961606/1/Payback_from_a_Pipe Payback From A Pipe]]'' by Meowth's Toon Dragon
29	* Recommended by Tropers/GordonSchumway
30	* ''Status'': Completed
31	* ''Synopsis'': After beating Brian half to death for sleeping with his transgender father, Quagmire learns that payback and karma can be both extremely vicious and extremely fast when Stewie finds out what happened...
32	* ''Comments'': If you're one of those people who's disgusted with Quagmire's hypocrisy in hating Brian when he's just about the last person who has any right to look down on anyone, and for beating a completely ignorant Brian at the end of ''Quagmire's Dad'' for something he had absolutely no idea about, then this is the fic for you. Stewie throws all of Quagmire's hypocritical bullshit back in his face, wonderfully deconstructing his original TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to Brian by turning all of Quagmire's accusations back towards him, and giving Quagmire the fate he so richly deserves.

35	* Recommended by Tropers/HappyMan
36	* ''Status'': Complete
37	* ''Synopsis'': An alternative ending for the infamous episode "Not All Dogs Go To Heaven".
38	* ''Comments'': If you read this fanfic, you'd wish this was the actual ending of the aforementioned episode. It's wonderfully written, and it's not too long, and offers a much better resolution .

41	* Recommended by Harley Quinn hyenaholic
42	* ''Status'': Dead
43	* ''Synopsis:'' Meg hates her family, and she's going to give them what they have coming. It doesn't help that Brian's feeling suicidal. But if there's anywhere you can make a fresh start, it's Mexico - if they can get there alive. Will there be any survivors?
44	* ''Comments:'' Many fanfics about Meg go on about her getting revenge - but they don't often get this serious, or this bloody, or involve attempted suicides. Working heavily from Meg's experiences in ''Dial Meg For Murder'' and acclaimed for its portrayal of Meg going TriggerHappy with a shotgun and killing her family, its portrayal of Brian as being better than canon, and its ability to bring people back from the dead just to have more fun with them. Rumours of the Giant Chicken seeking vengeance are abound, and the question raised in the summary becomes more legitimate with every chapter - will anybody survive?

54	''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3771910/1/ Coming Out]]'' by Howling1
55	* Recommended by Jane Poirot
56	* ''Status'': Complete
57	* ''Pairings'': Brian/Stewie
58	* ''Synopsis'': After the so-called "gay gene" is discovered, Stewie injects Brian with said gay gene in hopes of making Brian fall in love with him. It succeeds in turning Brian gay, but does not make him necessarily ''love'' Stewie. Needless to say, it creates [[HilarityEnsues complications.]]
59	* ''Comments'': Absolutely brilliant. Done in the exact same style as a ''Family Guy'' episode (only, in this troper's opinion, somewhat more smartly written), this fanfic could easily become an actual episode or special movie. Everyone behaves in-character, and it has some of the classic trademarks of ''Family Guy'' (random flashbacks with celebrities and an over-the-top subplot), and contains shout-outs to previous characters (for example, Brian's gay cousin Jasper, and even the infamous chicken fight). The overall message of the story, if put into the wrong hands, would have come across as a horribly [[BrokenAesop broken aesop,]] but the author manages to avoid that and create a well-thought out aesop. Without a doubt, one of ''the'' absolute best Family Guy fanfics out there.
60	** Second opinion by pimpdaddy . I have to disagree on this one. The chapters are very short, and the fact that they need to fill up a good chunk of each chapter with cut-away gags is pretty obnoxious. More than half of the second chapter was just line for line quotes from various episodes as "flashbacks". It doesn't really seem to stand out as a particularly memorable fan fiction, let alone an example of a great one.

63	* It has [[FanFic/MegsFamilySeries its own article]]
64	* Recommended by Tropers/HappyMan
65	* ''Status'': Completed
66	* Pairings: Meg/Original Character, Chris/Jillian
67	* Synopsis: After being abanoned by Peter, Meg meets a 7 11 Clerk named Zack, they fall in love and a bunch of crazy stuff happens.
68	* ''Comments'': One of the best and funniest stories I've ever read, written in episodic format. If you like Meg, and are [[ButtMonkey tired of the treat she gets on the show (and many Family Guy fanfics)]], you'll like these two great stories. But the author doesn't limit to use just Meg, but practically every Family Guy character, as well as a good bunch of OCs. None of the characters are OutOfCharacter, the Original Characters are far away from being [[SpotlightStealingSquad spotlight stealers]]. The author also includes some of Family Guy's most famous gimmicks, like the flashbacks, pop culture references and irreverent humor. Lots of laughs are guaranteed.

72	* It has [[FanFic/TheSpellbook its own article]]
73	* Recommended by Tropers/LargoQuagmire
74	* ''Status'': Completed
75	* Pairings: Meg/Original Character, Brian/Jillian
76	* Synopsis: For her eighteenth birthday, Peter, on a last-minute gift-buying trip, buys Meg a spellbook. This spellbook gives Meg magical powers... and things get really crazy really fast, especially after Meg's new boyfriend gets involved.
77	* ''Comments'': Although similar to Meg's Boyfriend/Family, The Spellbook has some very interesting conceits. This Troper's personal favorite aspect of The Spellbook is the emphasis on familial love, something that is often neglected in Family Guy in general. This Troper also loves the ridiculous hijinks of Miriam and her sisters, the evil witches who constantly try to steal the spellbook from Meg.

80	''[[https://m.fanfiction.net/s/8752762/1/The-ABC-s-of-Kink The ABCs of Kink]]'' by Van the Key of Lain
81	* Recommended by [=FlamingMercury5=]
82	* ''Status'': Dead
83	* ''Pairings'': Meg/Quagmire
84	* ''Synopsis'': Meg and Quagmire form a mutual agreement to provide each other with emotional support and go out with each other when neither of them were seeing anyone else. Of course, while their relationship just begins as a mutual agreement, the two of them find themselves hopelessly falling in love with each other...
85	* ''Comments'': This is the fic that made me ship Meg and Quagmire. It's so beautifully written and so perfectly captures the emotions of these two. I'm a sucker for a good HurtComfortFic, and when it involves a character like [[ButtMonkey Meg Griffin]] who has been shit upon by the world, it's just so sweet! Yes, there's lots of smut (as to be expected when one half of the fic's pairing is [[ExtremeLibido Glenn Quagmire]]), but it's beautifully interwoven with fluff and hurt/comfort, so it doesn't really feel jarring or out-of-place.
