I have a confession to make. I want to boink Lois Griffin, and it's all because of Alex Borstien. She's done an outstanding job of bringing the character of lois Griffin to life, and the production staff could not have made a better pick than to cast Ms. Borstein as Lois's voice. I swear to God, this is the first time in my life that I've ever fantasized about doing a cartoon character. My fantasy, without going into the gory details, involves a shipwreck, a deserted island, clothing torn and ragged almost to the point of non-existance,
Lois Griffin, a quart jar of industrial strength viagra, and an imploding prostate. Jesus.

I never watched MadTV, but I do see her do the voices of Lois and more on Family Guy. She is very funny there. She did an average job as her role in the movies Catwoman and The Lizzie Mcguire Movie. I think she's better suited for animation. Overall, she is a superb actress and Family Guy wouldn't be Family Guy without her.
9/10.

Alex Borstein is the funniest actress of all. All of her MadTV charcters were hilarious, but my favourite was the hilarious Ms. Swan, it's too bad that she no longer stars on MadTV. After both Nicole Sullivan and Alex Borstein left MadTV I've stopped watching it. Her Family Guy character Lois (mainly the voice) is hilarious. Everything she appears in is always great. The comedies she appears in a mainly only funny because she is in them (but not Family Guy, every character and actor/actress on that show is awesome). She is a very talented comedian, so be sure to watch all of her appearances.
