Family Guy Spin-Off: "The Cleveland Show"

[HappyPalooza]

I wonder if it'll top either Tyler Perry's shows.

[Nico32]

really looking forward to the pilot epsiode and to see how this new show kicks off. Hopefully it's a good workable story with interesting characters

It's just a black Family Guy.

quiet you.

It really seems like Family Guy, just with Cleveland as the star and with new characters. I'm thinking fans of Family Guy are either really going to like this or really going to think it's a dumb idea, probably the former

[supmandude]

quiet you.

I didn't mean that in a racist way if that's the way it came out. I just meant there's nothing new to it. The baby's a black Stewie, Cleveland Jr.'s a black Chris and the list goes on. They even have a midget that's just going to be Joe but, rather then cripple they will have midget jokes. There's nothing new to it I saw the pilot online it was awfull!!! The show seems to assume people already know about Family Guy and what that's like. If you want to make a spin-off that's the worst thing you can do. If you watch the first episode it starts out with Peter making some lame condom joke. It doesn't take the time to explain who Cleveland or anyone are it just assumes you've seen them on Family Guy. In short it's Family Guy with black people or even shorter Seth Macfarlene's just pulling shit out of his ass.

Since when are Pilots gonna be as good as "Spirited Away" or "The Godfather"

and don't say spin-offs are "the worst thing you can do."

i mean...hello... Daria anyone?

[HappyPalooza]

but it's a sitcom about a family and...wait for it...










THEY'RE BLACK!

Supmandude gave some great reasons as to why this is gonna suck and you're doing a pretty bad job defending it, Dynamo

[Dynamo]

i dont care about defending it.

Whatever i say or do, you guys will just keep watching it and complaining

You got that right, buddy.
Actually, I'm way to late this time...

[Bella Drape 'er]

I can't wait to see the ratings fall miserably for this show.

It's a bad concept of a show.

Loads of people who have seen the pilot dislike it.

It's the THIRD generic, painful Seth series (although AD is not too bad, it's still not watchable).

Umm you say it's like FG (Haven't seen the pilot, sound is bein an ass) , well FG is still on air, sooooo......dooodooodooo

God!

WHEN WILL YOU GO AWAY!?!?

[Dynamo]

Dude seriously, shut the hell up. You just come to one of my posts and say crap to me. If you get so angry over a post, you need to see a shrink.

[HappyPalooza]

I think you guys complaining are overlooking the fact that they're gonna have bears as neighbors !!

[Mt. Doom]

Dynamo, I say crap to you because you say shit like doododoo, need I say more?

And HappyPalooza, once you see shows with talking dogs, goldfish, and aliens, you get used to that stuff in Seth's shows. Which is incredibly sad

[Dynamo]

The Bear thing is a bit weird. I saw The "Inside The Actor's Studio" Or whatever last week, and, He said that one of the choices was a ghost. IMO, A ghost would be better.

I have seen the pilot, as has alot of people illegally/or through tester sessions, it's proper weak, although not as offensive or extreme as FG, it is pointless and too random that it's just painstakingly awful.

Nah, I actually like Tim the bear. He reminds me of a friend of mine (Same body type, same voice....just not covered in brown hair).

A ghost living next door just seems like a cheap way to make KKK jokes, ala the South Park episode "Pinkeye" (Which will probably be done with the Redneck character anyway, even if he is in Cleveland's new group of friends)

[TheForbiddenDonut]

this makes no sense.

[Bella Drape 'er]

painstakingly awful

[TheForbiddenDonut]

Man that sure was carefully and diligently awful.

[Bella Drape 'er]

Don't offend the dictionary!

The white kid is Lester’s son, Ernie.

For those not in the know, Lester is Cleveland's redneck neighbour.

I watched the pilot. Pretty bad, gotta be honest. I mean, eeeek.... really not not good... Has nothing to offer over Family Guy, uses the same style (cutaways and everything), and the same low-brow humor of the most recent lesser Family Guy episodes. I wasn't expecting much, but I was expecting more than this.

American Dad's pilot was unimpressive though, and I think the show became excellent, so maybe there's still hope.

This looks interesting, if only for the first appearance of the little can by Lester's feet.

[TriforceBun]

Why don't MacFarlane characters ever face each other? They're more content to angle their bodies towards the camera and glance out of the sides of their eyes to each other.

Again I say, their promos look REAL lazy and boring.

On the other hand though this does look kinda interesting
