Tom Tucker is the anchorman for Quahog 5 News. He's a quite narcissistic, handsome, mustachioed man who recaps news in pleasing baritone. In Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story it is revealed that his mustache is fake, but this is not confirmed as the Griffin family actually acted out the film. It was eventually confirmed the mustache is fake in "Stewie B. Goode", when he has to return it to the studio as it is actually their property when he is fired. Tom is not one to be politically correct, nor does he take into account the feelings of anyone, including broadcast partner Diane Simmons. He was married to Stacy Tucker, whom he was divorced from in "Mother Tucker", and is the father of Jake Tucker, whose face is upside-down. He often uses hookers and he once had a dead one, whom Peter ran over. He becomes Peter's step dad in the episode Mother Tucker, and they became very close. Meg developed a crush on him in "The Kiss Seen Around the World".

In "And Then There Were Fewer", Diane Simmons murdered James Woods, Derek Wilcox, Stephanie, Muriel Goldman, and Priscilla, and framed Tom. Tom was sent to jail for the crime. Prior to this, he suggested to his boss to have a young sexy blonde replace Diane as co-anchor. It is unknown whether he is still in jail after Lois found out that Diane was the real killer, though it is suggested he may be off the hook, as Dianne dropped the gun she threatened Lois with before she fell off the cliff. Said gun would carry her fingerprints and is the first piece of concrete evidence in the case, along with Lois' testimony would likely lead to Tucker being found not guilty.

Trivia

  • His house is full of pictures of him, including one of him in a wedding dress. This could be because he hates his wife, Stacy, and is ashamed of his son Jake's face. But overall suggests he is merely a narcissist. This more often seen where he hangs a poster of himself over his bed, as well as asking if people want his autograph.
  • He frequently picks up hookers.
  • Although he and Diane appear to hate each other, during a news special when the cast believed that they were knocked off the air, Tom pulled out a sex-paddle to spank Diane with. Right when he was about to deliver the first whack, the cameraman exclaimed that they were on the air. Tom also makes many sexual jokes about her on the air.
  • Seth MacFarlane only does a minor adjustment to his voice when speaking, as the character is very close to his natural voice.
  • He seems to always make fun of Diane Simmons.(Mostly in previous seasons)
  • Tom has an unhealthy obsession over Megan Fox and even has her phone number.

  • Tom:(After lying about the last Pawtucket scroll being found) That's right, I made it up.
