Are they trying to kill the show off?

6 months, 8 episodes.

Clowns are messing with the schedule even worse than NBC moving Scrubs 47 times.

Yep I noticed this too and it's the best frickin cartoon on their Sunday night line up

Fox should just send it to adult swim or maybe tbs then they could pair it with American Dad

Great show, hope they can keep it running.

On a side note, how awful is that show Bordertown? I tried to make it through an episode but man is it bad.


At least Last Man On Earth comes back this weekend.

Poor scheduling for sure, but they've already renewed for Seasons 7 and 8. We're getting at least two more seasons of this great, great show.

ETA: More King of the Hill than Scrubs. Blink and they've done 13 seasons.

Family guy isn't even the best MacFarlane animation series.

American Dad is actually a pretty great show, but family guy leaves people skeptical about getting into it.

American Dad is a better show than Family Guy. I enjoy both, but it's not even close.

Roger is one of the best characters ever on TV. People may think, oh Stewie, oh Brian, but Roger is in Ron Swanson GOAT discussion.

FG has higher peaks and valleys. It's basically Seth McFarlands outlet for sketch comedy/throwaway jokes now.

American dad is much more structured with story so the overall quality is better, which Family Guy was like that for the first few season and then SM lost interest.

Paintball Vietnam is a beautiful piece of comedy.

Kind of weird that his original big hit is the one that is basically his Guinne pig

Agreed.

And agreed. American Dad has many homerun episodes with the outlandish and subtlety combined. FG is great when it's Stewie/Brian adventures or Quagmire or Chris/Herbert. Again, IMO.

But nothing touches Roger. He's a character within a character with 200 other characters. He can do the throwaway jokes and also be the catalyst for entire episodes.

He's like a blob that SM and writers can mold into whatever they want per episode, but his personality is fully intact. Every single character is Roger. If that makes sense to you.

Just a night or two ago I was watching the episode when Steve ate the cookie Roger was going to eat. "You snooze, you lose" said Steve. Only Roger would make Steve think he's an adopted child the entire episode to get back at him. And at the end Steve respects Roger's vendetta and Haley tells Roger, "the Early bird gets the worm" sitting in a chair Roger was saving. "the Early bird gets the worm" says Roger plotting. Brilliant.

One of my favorite episodes is Great Space Roaster. Roger at his best.

I just got into BB recently, but it's awesome. Zeke is probably my favorite character. Dude cracks me up every time.

I love it. It's the same guys that did a show called 3 South that was also hilarious and canceled too early.

I remember when I was in college after Family Guy was cancelled, we had the box set and it was the funniest thing ever. Then after the "underground" success, they brought it back and it was just never as good. Plus, I got burnt out on the old stuff quickly.

Bob's Burgers just has great characters. I could watch 30 minutes of them following Gene around while he says stupid shite.

It should be paired with Archer - although the production schedule might get dicey for Benjamin.

The first 2 to 3 seasons of Family Guy are money. Since then? Meh.

Louise is my favorite - the episode where Lynn turns the place into a BnB - pure gold.

so many great episodes in that show - easily one of my favs
