Family Guy is among the top ten comedy and drama shows favored to get Emmy nominations this year. The following shows haven’t been “officially” nominated, but they’re being released as in the running TO be nominated, in order to stave off wild rumors that went around the Interwebs last year, apparently. These shows will go […]

I love Family Guy, honestly, I do, but sometimes they go too far into the realm of “trying to be funny but it backfires because it’s REALLY NOT FUNNY.” Case in point:
The time when Peter Griffin was doing a stand-up comedy routine in a hospital full of terminally ill children.
Making fun of Lou Gehrig’s […]

Over at DeviantART, one of the best places on the Web to find really good (and really bad) amateur art, I’ve discovered a whole treasure chest of Family Guy art. Some of this is actually pretty good. Some of it….well, let’s just say that these people need to keep their day jobs.
First, Brian.

There’s a great new interview with Seth MacFarlane in the Boston Herald. Here are the good bits:
On the show’s humor: “The thing that I try to do with ‘Family Guy’ is to have this balance between the classic and the edgy. We do a lot of poop jokes, but at the same time, we use […]

This Pirate Chase clip is from the episode titled “Long John Peter”, Family Guy Season 6. In this clip, we see Peter Griffin and his sea dogs (literal sea dogs) battle on the high freeways with their car, a sword, a big hat and a feather, and cannons. You know, standard issue for cars these […]

If you’ve watched Family Guy or the Simpsons for any length of time, you’ll notice some pretty glaring similarities. Let’s list a few:
They’re both, uh, “big-boned.”
They both have long-suffering wives who for some reason put up with all their stuff.
Each man has three kids.
Both men have issues with their fathers.
They’ve both had a ton of […]

From Family Guy Season 2. In this clip, Chris is sitting on the diving board too embarrassed to take his shirt off and get in the water. Instead of gently asking him what’s wrong and perhaps working through it together, Peter instead uses this moment to teach Chris a valuable boob-licking lesson. Accomplishing pretty much […]

In an interesting and never before done move, the folks at Family Guy have put the animated show up in two different Emmy categories: the live-action, half-hour comedy category, and the animation category.
This hasn’t been done before, but they got away with it because of the Blue Harvest animated special. Basically, this would put […]

I’ve been diligently researching information on the new Cleveland Brown spinoff, and I’ve got some new information:
That fat kid in the screenshot? That’s Cleveland Brown Jr., redesigned. I’m thinking that they put him on meds for his ADD and he got fat? Maybe?
From ign.com: “Many years ago, Cleveland Brown (voiced by Mike Henry) was a […]

Okay! Here’s the first official trailer of the Family Guy spinoff for Cleveland Brown:
The only clip I saw in there that wasn’t from Family Guy was the one of three Clevelands dancing, although that one looks familiar too. Here’s the lyrics for the song you hear Cleveland singing:
The Cleveland Show Song
“My name is Cleveland Brown
