Why is Fox playing favorites with Family Guy? Have more episodes of the series been produced than of the others?

Probably because all they needed to do to make new Family Guy episodes was sift through jokes that've already been done on old Simpsons episodes. The other shows took longer because they had to write new jokes.

Family Guy has its moments though, but it got progressively less funny over the course of the 7 or so episodes which aired.

What do you mean playing favorites? FOX has the Emmys on Sunday, Sept 12 - and they wanted to use a double-header football game to launch their lineup, the next one was on Sept 26. Sure, I would have prefered the 19th, but it makes sense on the 26th.

Yeah, but your post says that FG premieres on the 16th, not the 26th.

Well, I was talking about the Sunday lineup, since the 26th is a Sunday, not a Thursday - I was pointing out that its not about playing favorites - but about timing.
