The Cleveland Show

[AkJay]

Seth Mcfarlane is a fairly funny fellow who has made some good shows in the past, Family Guy.. really, and i enjoyed American Dad, i know most of you do not, but that is ok. Now Seth is back for a third show about Family Guy himself's good buddy Cleveland, and how he gets a new wife and step-children. May i be the first to say, What the fuck? why? this seems like a blatently plaigerized version of "The Bernie Mac Show", i think Seth is getting greedy now. What do you think?

 

[Cpt_Oblivious]

What I think?
Depends if it's funny.

 

[MasterStratus]

I can't really say anything until I see it.
Hopefully it's funny.

It's a spin off, thats it (as far as I know) so it's just one episode not a full series, but it would be quite...boring as Cleveland is only a really good character with the rest of the guys round him all the time.

 

[Souplex]

I think Seth lost his mind when Family guy was cancelled the first time and hasn't been good since.

 

[ThrobbingEgo]

Let's judge the show after we've, you know, seen it. There's no point saying it's going to suck, until it comes out.

I'm just curious as to how such a show would work.

 

[Shapsters]

I think Seth wants to prove that he can be funny without the silly Family Guy flashbacks. It looks pretty funny, but what isn't a money grab nowadays?

It's all speculation people, jesus christ would you fucking humour me for ten seconds?

 

[JakBandit2208]

Well American Dad doesn't do the whole flashback thing, And I think it still has some good jokes

I go by the five episode rule for a new shows: That is I see five episodes of a new show and average them together to determine if I want to stay commited to watching the show.

The spin-off idea apparently came from Fox and he ran with it. They were in the market for a Family Guy spin-off, since they've paid the guy to work for them until at least 2012, so I guess they want to milk the apparent cash cow that he is. So I wouldn't say he's greedy, rather Fox is and he gets benefits from this. I mean, with King of the Hill and Sit Down and Shut Up done with it makes sense they'd go to a winner for a new animated series.

 

[Matronadena]

Seth is Stoned....ALOT.....so nothing he does Is surprising anymore

 

[JakBandit2208]

I keep hearing that Sit Down Shut Up is coming back to finish out the season....any truth to this?

Before I read that I was going to say something along the lines of,

"Seth MacFarlane has had a really good idea for a show. I mean hell, this is the third version of it."

 

[Random Argument Man]

I just wonder if it will have a different humor type like American Dad.

Okay, okay.

I think that Mcfarlane is getting greedy.
Heaven forbid he makes a new show
You did not see that small text.
It only hurt your eyes.

 

[Zombie_Fish]

May be good, but I do think he is kind of milking the Family Guy style comedy a bit recently. It could work out, but it depends on how funny it is, and also whether or not it will just be another copy of Family Guy's humour.

 

[Nargleblarg]

It will probably suck and never catch on because cleveland is a side charector and cannot lead his own show. I also don't like the idea of him leaving family guy but I am happy to know that the show will fail I don't even care if it comes out I won't watch it. Hey FOX use all that money and time to put a good show on (thank you comedy central for picking up a new season of Futurama.)

Are you kidding? Family Guy was by and large rubbish before it got cancelled. Season 5 and 6 were definetly the best. Season 7 has kind of lost the plot though..

 

[Pimppeter2]

Meh, Family Guy was pretty funny but I doubt this will go past the first season
