A fourth Seth macfarlane show announced

So now The Simpsons is going to be replaced and Fox's Sunday animation block will become all McFarlane shows?

I hope not. Family Guy has actually be kind of funny lately, and American Dad is not bad, but... he doesn't need to make anymore shows. Seriously.
 
Why is everybody complaining and we don't even know what it's about yet? Seth has actually been producing hits, so I can see why Fox wants to stick with him.
 
As the YT link says, the odds are pretty good it'll be about a middle-class family with a goofy dad, at least one awkward child, and Supporting Characters Who Aren't Likely To Talk.

That cocky low-voiced man is really getting on my nerves now. Even the people commenting on that FG site have no enthusiasm for it.

I have no idea where they want to put it -- they wouldn't dare knock The Simpsons out of its long-time established slot, so.......
 
I thought The Simpsons was supposed to be on for at least two more seasons. But anyway, while I think Seth McFarline can be funny (especially with Family Guy), it wouldn't be fair that Fox has the entire Animation Domination block completely devoted to his shows.
 
Another question to ponder is, on what night and time is FOX going to air this new Macfarlane comedy? The Animation Domination block is already all MacFarlane shows except for The Simpsons, and we know that the higher ups at FOX would sooner chew their own arms off before they took The Simpsons off of Sunday nights at 8, so when is this new MacFarlane series going to air?
 
I have a single comment.

If the second and third ones didn't live up to the hype Family Guy had, why keep on going? When a movie (93 minutes is a movie?) bombs, why would they want another show, when money can be made elsewhere for FOX, seeing as they already hired Sarah Palin as a commentator for their much more popular news station. Just pump more money into that, and much more money will be made then another Seth travesty.
 
Did anybody consider that it might not actually air on Sunday? Maybe it would be a Saturday or a Friday night staple. Either way, I need more information before I can criticize it.
 
The article only says FOX is considering the option for a fourth Seth series; they haven't decided on it yet. This might not even go anywhere.

And if it does, who's to say that Seth will necessarily have four shows going at once? Maybe they'll wait until one of his current shows ends. "American Dad" seems to be on the thinnest ice right now, what with its 9:30 death slot, low ratings, a total lack of merchandise, and an upcoming midseason hiatus, so if any of Seth's shows would get the plug pulled, it'd probably be that one - which stinks, because it's the funniest thing he's got right now.
 
He must be a pretty busy guy, goodness. (3 wasn't enough?)
Four shows is a lot on one person's plate.

I'll check it out when/if it comes, but I've lost interest in his shows lately.
 
Doesn't American Dad ALWAYS go into a month-long hiatus around February? Like, really, it always gets temporarily replaced with some lame live-action sitcom that tanks horribly, and then it reappears in March like absolutely nothing happened; been that way for several years now. And I agree with Mugen, how is 9:30 a death slot?

Though, yeah, American Dad is the most likely one to be replaced by a fourth show, unless The Cleveland Show suddenly does a 90 degree nosedive in the ratings.
 
Fox Saturday nights are and forever will be Cops and America's Most Wanted. Their Friday nights have been so disastrous - even more than the other networks - that it's beginning to look doubtful they'll try any more scripted programming on that night. But maybe.

If a new Seth show went on Sunday, American Dad would definitely be the show that would get moved or removed for it. Actually, I imagine that they would compare the performances of the new Seth show and American Dad and stick with whichever one did better.

Though if they're still only considering the option for a new Seth show...it's a looong way off from premiering, if it even comes into existence in the first place. So no need to worry about it now.
 
I think Cleveland may still go. We need to see how it holds out for a while. American Dad seems to be getting steady ratings, and was just given the go ahead for a sixth season.
 
Hopefully, this never happens (a 4th show greenlighted).

The moment I read the thread title, I thought about American Dad getting axed after it's 6th season.
 
Well Fox has 7:00pm and 7;30PM to fill when Football Season is over....

Remember when Futurama was put in that slot, then King of the Hill?


Hopefully American Dad doesn't move there....After all they finally got to HD(but still behind in number of shows produced) so it's not going to be cancelled anytime soon(meaning at lease two more seasons)....


And Seth has a FIFTH show out there...but its live action....
 
a 4th seth show.....HAS THE WORLD GONE MAD!

I kid, seth is a good animator, I like his art style...but his shows have just been well...Not so good, as of late.

I really hope this 4th show is somthing that won't premire till one of his exsisting 3 is over.:sweat:
