It’s odd: I don’t like “American Dad,” I’m never going to watch “The Cleveland Show,” and it’s been years since I’ve cared about “Family Guy,” yet I don’t really mind Seth MacFarlane. He can go ahead and get wealthier than the Mormon church off of bad TV shows, but he’ll never get my bile pumping like Leno or reality TV.
That said, this College Humor video really nails how lazy he’s been with creating new shows. The believability of the talking animals here is especially on point, from French cat to Nazi hamster to right-wing anteater to hip-hop pterodactyl and beyond. Saaaaaayyyy… hip-hop pterodactyl? That reminds me of this. If you don’t think bear-o-dactyl’s awesome, I’m going to have to ask you to leave.

“he’ll never get my bile pumping like Leno or reality TV.”
Matt, you forgot “Entourage”
I don’t care what you think…The Cleveland Show is a solid watch. Of course, I laugh at all black people so maybe I’m not the best person to ask.
“SETH MACFARLANE GOT SERVED”
I was hoping this was an update on my ongoing class action, “Americans for Better God Damned Television v. Macfarlane, Leno, VH1 et al.”
I think the best-kept secret around is that after a few years of being awful, Family Guy is making me laugh a shitload again. Maybe it’s my recent phase of 24 oz. bottles of high-quality Belgian Ale on Sundays, but whatever.
You tink dats bad, what about the time I tried to interview Carrie Prejean about the time she diddled herself on video in a room full of oboe players.
Matt,
The Cleveland Show is def worth a watch. In some cases, it was funnier than Family Guy. But I guess the wise-cracking afro-baby and the Christian Right bear is somewhat of a stretch.
