Family Guy was cancelled once in 2000 and again in 2002, but strong DVD sales and the large viewership of reruns on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim convinced Fox to resume the show in 2005. It is the first cancelled show to be resurrected based on DVD sales, and the only one to be resurrected twice on that basis.

This seems to be a show you either love or hate. I was one of the people who purchased the DVDs when the show was cancelled, so I guess I am one of the people who brought it back.
And incidentally, Seth MacFarlane recently signed a contract with Fox for $100 Million dollars, so I guess Family Guy is secure for many more years.
