The series is under copyright, so this page quotes none of it and shows no pictures. The family facts rest on the Wikipedia articles on the series and its characters, which name the episode behind most relationships. The official Fox page for the series gave no character information when it was opened on 10 November 2026, and CBR is the source for the date of the return to Fox.
