I know that this is a weird one for me, but I must say one big wonderful THANK YOU to the people at Fox. Granted, it is both for something that is way past due and only for that one reason, cause we all know we can?t trust Fox, but I digress. This past weekend, specifically, May 1, 2005, marked the return of the Family Guy, and the premiere of American Dad; two shows written and produced by the lovely and brilliant Seth MacFarlane.
Now, you see, for those of you that have never seen Family Guy, here is a quick background: being one of the funniest, and daring, shows to ever come on TV, it was quickly shifted around so that it would be difficult to get the ratings to stay alive, and then subsequently cancelled. But? thanks to astronomical DVD sales and a somewhat cult following, thanks to nightly reruns on Adult Swim, it was reconsidered for pick up, and is now back on the air, with fresh episodes. Oh yeah, also to note: it is probably the funniest damn thing you could ever watch, and if you don?t like it, you just probably don?t get it.
So, after watching both shows this weekend (at first I was skeptical about American Dad, but no longer, it is going to be outrageous and great? it was on Sunday), and then re-watching them again last night (like I said, these shows are great!) I issue this thanks to Fox. Thank you for bring my show back, and I honestly know that I speak for many, many others out there when I say: It was definitely the BEST decision you have ever made? and oh yeah, KEEP THEM COMING, you don?t want to fuck it up twice, do you?
Side note: thank goodness for the tivo and DVD burner, cause I am definitely going to have all of these beauties to watch over and over again. If you haven?t seen the shows, do yourself a favor and start watching!!!

Love that Family Guy is back, but I am not jiving with American Dad yet. I will give it one more chance.
I didn’t like the first episode too much either, but I feel like it is a well written show. After I watched the first one and the season premiere again, I liked them a lot more. I had to warm up to family guy too, and look where I am at now!! It is the best!
I don’t think I saw American Dad. Can I borrow it from you?
Dude…. when you come to ATL, we will have a marathon… I can send you home with a DVD of all of them. Love the DVD burner and TIVO!!!!
