Something Good on TV!

Filed under: TV News

What? Not another reality show?

FINALLY!!!!!

Fox is going back to the classics, thankfully.

The station is said to be launching an animated comedy. The first new one in three years!

The concept? A spin-off.

But still. Better than the fake reality shows, like The Hills, right???

As of now, the show will be called Cleveland. And yes, it's a spin-off of the Family Guy.

It is set to launch next Spring.

We love Family Guy, so hopefully this doesn't suck too hard!

Cleveland is expected to air 13 episodes, and staffers are already being hired for the show.

Fox must really love Seth MacFarlane!

The last two animated shows on Fox were Family Guy and American Dad, both created by MacFarlene.

There's also talks of two new cartoons joining the network if they get approved, The Pitts and Sit Down, Shut Up.

There's also four non-cartoon shows set to land on Fox's schedule.

Let's hope this marks a trend of more scripted shows and less "reality" tv.

I don't think it will be good. Family Guy has produced enough unfunny jokes for the network.

Will Peter and the rest of the Griffins be making cameo's?? Maybe Cleveland can have a little kid for Stewie to play with. And more Loretta please!

Why are you so fucking negative? They haven't even started writing the show, and you assume it is going to "suck hard".

Two posts down you trash Jamie Lynne Spears for making a nursery for her soon to be born kid. WTF? Do you want her to abandon the baby? Your pathetic.

You suck hard, Jackass! I am done, done, done with this site. Fuck you all need to get a life. What a piece of shit you are Perez. You are the epitome of why America sucks. Or at least why the rest of the world thinks you suck.

WHY CLEVELAND? HE SUCKS… THERE SHOULD BE A STEWIE ONE…
bubs-mac says – reply to this

25

Family Guy and American Dad are two of my fave shows… they always make me laugh out loud. But a spin-off centered on Cleveland? I'm not sure that's the way to go. Maybe Quagmire… that could potentially be X-rated hilarity.

To all you DUMB FUCKERS OUT THERE: If you don't like Family Guy and Seth McFarlane and the brilliance that comes with the show, then you need to lick my bung.

CLEVELAND IS A SEXY HUNK OF DARK CHOCOLATE AND I WANT TO RUN MY TONGUE UP AND DOWN HIS CRACK HOLE.

YES, we all know American Dad sucks the big one, but CLEVELAND will be this SHIZNIT.

Yeah baby, bring it on!!!

Family Guy sucks. It is decidedly unfunny and ham-handed. Every time I cruise past it I think of the inane sitcom featured in the movie Robocop. However, the sitcom in Robocop was intended to highlight the vacuous nature of television. Family Guy illustrates the timidity of the satire proffered in Robocop to skewer American tastes in “entertainment."

I would like to say any Family Guy spin-off has about as much of a chance of surviving as a spin-off of Jewelry Television’s The Watch Show; however I fear this, too, underestimates America’s ability to wallow in crapulence.

Cleveland a possible multiple Emmy winner? "I'll buy that for a dollar!"

As always two months behind on your reports. This is older then the fucking Pope! Hey Perez if you are going to be a day to day entertainment blogger then report the stories when then happen. Fuck your little dog video's and the Hill's whores and Dickhead's and find out what the hell is happening in the real world of Hollywood!

OLD NEWS! Seth Macfarlane talked about this on Loveline I think two appearances ago? Awesome, but old news.
afsd says – reply to this

61

All you guys who are thinking that cleveland isn't a great character for a spin-off are stupid. Stewie and Quagmire are the obvious choices, but they're the OBVIOUS choices. A Stewie or Quagmire spin-off would be a bigger failure than the cleveland spin off.

Anyone who dislikes Family Guy obviously has no sense of humor. I support this all the way, very excited about it. Seth MacFarlane is fucking genius!

I'm not gonna lie, i love family guy. But I feel like this is going to fail. It'll be amusing to watch though.
