Seth MacFarlane talks about Family Guy Season 7!!!

by Wendy on July 1st, 2008

Family Guy season 7 couldn’t come soon enough (September), especially after this last season with the writer’s strike muffing most of the new episodes we were really looking forward too. Seth’s given us a few details about season 7 of Family Guy; here’s what he had to say:

On Stewie being gay or not gay

“Most likely,” MacFarlane said in response to the Stewie/gay question, “in some way it’s going to be worked into the plot of the ‘Family Guy’ movie if we ever have the time to get it off the ground,” MacFarlane said.

On the talking bear in the Cleveland spin-off

“It’ll be worth it. You’ll love the talking bear, believe me,” he said.

On possible crossovers

“Crossovers are cool” — but added that his place on “Family Guy” would be taken by another character. Who? No decision yet in the long term.

On Brian getting more story time

“We’re going to pump Brian up a little more,” MacFarlane said. “He’ll be the one who hangs out with the guys at the bar.”

On why Cleveland was chosen for the spinoff

MacFarlane said he’s often asked why Clevelandwas chosen for the spinoff and not Quagmire, the lecherous airline pilot. “This is not a guy you want to invite into your hone on a weekly basis,” he said.

He said that Cleveland had opportunities for heartfelt moments as a character was “so complex and tortured and introspective.”
