If you dont have a DVD and its getting cancelled/postponed or whatever, does this mean the american public don't "get" family guy?

Pretty much, unless another channel picks it up for syndication (which is just repeats). Maybe we'll get lucky and another channel will buy new episodes. Comedy Central would be a good choice, it could go right with South Park.

I'd be sad to see it dissapear, shame its not as in your face as simpsons and not as crude as southpark, but the jokes are funnier, i just like how fast it moves, especially peter's flashbacks.

That's why I suggested Com Central. With South Park, I'd figure they could afford what Fox paid. Or even MTV, I suppose. Most other cable channels have any shows with that high of ratings.

Imagine... FG and SP back-to-back? Wow.

Possibly the best hour on TV. Josh

Highly doubtful that'd happen. CC isn't a cartoon network. They don't need *another* raunchy cartoon, they've got one.

As far as FOX goes, what the hell happened? Oh, they got mainstream.

Failure is not an option. It's bundled with the software.

Yes, but they are a comedy network so Family Guy would fit in with their other shows.

They should drop crappy shows like The Man Show and Absolutely Fabulous (which is absolutely terrible) and replace them with The Family Guy.

Those are two good shows. Absolutely Fabulous can't be cheap, although the production costs are borne by the BBC obviously.

FG seems to be a higher quality of animaion than SP, so it could be difficult sell to get CC to pony up. The voice talent also consists of actors, who may expect wages they got under Fox, rather than a cable channel.

South Park is getting old and played out. Its crude and redundant.

Fuck MTV, the only 2 good things that were on MTV: Liquid Television and Beavis & Butthead. Look what happened to them.

Mainstream American pop culture is pathetic: the music, the TV shows, the movies, are all drivel.

Seems like it, and ever decade it changes incredibly so that those who were with 'it' are not in 'it'.

IIRC, B&B ended because Judge didn't want to do it anymore.

...and don't want to be. I'm an 80's person and when the 90's came around I was like "What the hell is this crap?!" My brother is a 90's person and now I get to see him doing the same thing.

The machine that distills culture and turns it into pop culture is still the same, though.

The US just doesn't KNOW about it, since Fox moved the time slot a million times, cancelled it, renewed it, then put it on against America's two biggest shows without advertising. The ratings sucked, but were CONSISTANT..the people who knew the show was on watched it every week...most people did not know the show was on anymore.

Zombie is right, I love that show, but half the time I never knew when it was on, except when they had the brief run on Tuesdays in Season 2 I believe. Then they moved it all over the place, so I just opted to grab the episode posts here on usenet. I say premium cable like HBO so they can rerun a few times a week, or stream off the web, making it easier for ppl to watch Fox sux plain and simple, if it were not for the Simpsons, Futurama, and the FG, I would never switch to that channel..
