I realize not everyone here is into Family Guy but for those who are, YAY! This has to give hope to us browncoats that our show can only benefit from strong DVD sales.

Quote:
With tremendous sales of the first DVD volume of FAMILY GUY (the second set goes on sale starting next week) and ratings on Cartoon Network climbing high, McFarlane's now-cancelled series is proving to be more popular in its afterlife than it was when it was in active production on Fox.

The article also mentions the Family Guy movie that will be made. To read the article go here http://www.cinescape.com/0/editorial.asp?aff_id=0&this_cat=Movies&acti

Hmmm, Family Guy-movie, new series. Firefly-Movie, new series? Now for the third 'F' we need to get Futurama brought back. And F fox.

Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future, or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"

Family Guy was farkin funny, Futurama was good for a while but then it went downhill by the end it was very ordinary.

Firefly is the best show ever! and it hasnt even been shown here in Australia :)

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

I must admit that I hold onto the hope of seeing FF back on the small screen again, and I see in the DVD release a unique opportunity to get FF into the hands of more friends and family. I plan to purchase at least 5 copies, 1 for myself, and 4 for family & friends to watch and share with others.

I have to also admit that a small, petty part of me would love to see the DVDs fly off the shelf, setting records and surpassing all of our wildest hopes. I want to see the FF movie be a box office smash and see networks scrambling to sign the cast for another shot at TV with the series. I want to see the look on Fox executives faces when Joss & crew tell them to take their offer & shove it.

(Nope, no bitterness here!

)

So, just who is airing "Family Guy" on TV?
And please note: The "Family Guy" movie will NOT be on the big screen.

"McFarlane tells CA. 'It would be a direct-to-DVD project.'"

Unfortuntely, I can't imagine anyone but the horrendous and odious FOX or FX showing "Family Guy" were it to return to network TV. Certainly not ABC/Disney.
I can't see CBS or NBC airing it, either.
I think late night on Cartoon Network has been the most logical place for both "Guy" and "Futurama". It can't be messed with there.

You don't have to be "old" to use that word. (Whatever "old" is.)
But "siked" isn't a word. not one that i can find anywhere.
"psyched", however, is.

(tee-hee)
