Story

Voiced by Seth MacFarlane

Tom Tucker is the anchorman for Quahog 5 News. He's a quite narcissistic, handsome, moustachioed man who recaps news in pleasing baritone. In Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story it is revealed that his moustache is fake. Tom is not one to be politically correct, nor does he take into account the feelings of anyone, including broadcast partner Diane Simmons. He is married to Stacy Tucker and is the father of Jake Tucker, whose face is upside-down. He once had a hooker but Peter ran her over.

Meg developed a crush on him in one episode.

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.
  • When he kisses women, his moustache tickles them only slightly, only slightly.
  • Sometimes he walks really slowly down corridors, just for the hell of it.
  • He once interviewed Dustin Hoffman by splicing in footage of him pretending to ask him questions into clips of Hoffman appearing in movies, such as The Graduate and Hook. Tucker promised to help bring Peter Pan to the fictional Hook (Hoffman), saying that he would "keep an eye out for him."
  • He has mistaken an extremely obese Peter for Mercury, the planet closest to the sun. What Mercury was doing on the wharf, he hadn't the foggiest.
  • He frequently picks up hookers.
  • He played a prank on Diane in which if your hand is larger than your face, you will develop cancer. When Diane fell for it, Tom hit her really hard in the face.
  • 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.
  • His name in the Original Pilot is Mike Tucker.
  • Seth Macfarlane uses only a minor adjusted change of voice when speaking for the character very close to his natural voice.
