Chevapravatdumrong moved to
Los Angeles to pursue writing. Before working on
Family Guy, she was a writer's assistant on the
CBS series
Listen Up Family Guy Chevapravatdumrong was at one time the only female writer on
Family Guy (a fact mentioned in the episode "
Roasted Guy"), and also a co-executive producer. Her last name was used in its entirety in the episode "
And I'm Joyce Kinney" as the real last name of Joyce Kinney. When asked why she changed her name, Joyce responds "because they would never let that name [Chevapravatdumrong] on TV." In the episode "
Jesus, Mary and Joseph!" Peter breaks the
fourth wall by rearranging the letters of her name in the opening credits to say "Chemotherapy vanguard vCr" (with one "r" left over, which he throws at Lois in a childlike tantrum when she points this out). In the episode "
Dead Dog Walking", Peter again breaks the fourth wall by saying that her address is 11700 Hollywood Way,
North Hollywood, CA 91065 (an address that does not actually exist), and that she is also a lawyer. In the episode "
No Giggity, No Doubt", Peter lists her name among examples of people (mainly other
Family Guy characters, increasing in obscurity) who should go on an excursion with Meg: "Cherry Chevapravatdumrong, that's how that name is pronounced." In the episode "
The Bird Reich", Stewie lists her name among several others as examples of "Family Guy writers who wrote books, and nobody's ever heard of them".
