Megan Griffin

Megan "Meg" Griffin is the sweet-natured, yet insecure 17-year-old daughter of the title character Peter Griffin in the animated TV series Family Guy. Her voice was provided by an uncredited Lacey Chabert for the first season and by Mila Kunis (That '70s Show) in subsequent seasons.

Romantic involvements

Neil Goldman, a nerdy kid at Meg's school, is one of the few people who has shown a romantic interest in Meg; unfortunately, Meg is not interested in Neil. In the episode "The Kiss Seen Around the World", the two are cornered by a mass murderer and share a kiss, thinking it will be their last moments on earth. They survive (after being saved by Hugh Downs) and Meg is horrified to find that Neil captured the kiss on videotape. Not only does he air the footage on the local news, but distributes t-shirts featuring a picture of the smooch to all the students at their school. Meg finally makes her feelings clear to Neil and the rest of the town with her own news report.
