Best Seth MacFarlane Show?

Which is best?

"The Cleveland Show" is nice and mellow... not angry like "Family Guy."

"American Dad" has a fun sci-fi edge to it and Roger the alien is a lot of fun.

"Family Guy" is pretty topical...

Which is best?

That one he produced, "Borderland," is unwatchable. Just insanely bad. Cancelled, right?

It might have been better if it'd been drawn in the same style as the others.

"American Dad" and "The Cleveland Show" are both set in Virginia. Weird.

I'm hoping for a sex tape! Can't even find a shirtless pic, damn him.

Roger is great. Such a fun hypersexual character. "American Dad" is the most homoerotic (lots of hot guys pop up, and Stan admits they're hot and/or Roger hits on them). E.g., "scrumptious" Zack.

The Cleveland Show is comforting. I play it as I go to bed and while I sleep.

American Dad is the gayest. So many shirtless guys.

American Dad still has solid storylines with relevant humor and gives emotional depth to the characters. The last several seasons of Family Guy have mostly used shock humor with little story or character development.

The Cleveland Show had the most heart.

I love American Dad, some of the early seasons are brilliant. Seth apparently based Roger on Paul Lynde, and having multiple personas for Roger allows for so many creative opportunities. I just about fell out the first time I saw Roger in drag, as Laura VanDerbooben, entering to "me so horny".

I always thought he was involved in South Park but google proved me wrong. So I guess that means he hasn't done a Broadway show either? (I thought he was involved in Book of Mormon). That must kill him.

I guffawed when Roger thought Stan was coming on to him so he struck a pose on his bed with a "Come hither" look while Toto's "You Know I Won't Hold You Back Now" played. Ha!

Wish there was a clip.

R23, after the premiere, they changed the last line of the song. I remember being kind of shocked when I heard the original.

[quote] In an earlier version of the theme song, instead of "my happy mustache face," the line was "my happy black guy face." It was changed to make the song more racially sensitive.

I'm waiting for MacFarlane's new show that will be debuting very soon. It's all about an entertainer who is being stalked by an Asian-Canadian healthcare worker.

R27 I doubt that since they've written straight storylines for stewie. They do the same for roger.

American Dad has a weird, cheery preteen energy about it. The son, Steve, is like its spiritual center.

Family Guy is more angry and cynical at its core.

American Dad was one of the all time great shows for the best part of a decade. Silly, cultured, and with real heart. It totally went off the rails when one of the co-creators was kicked off a few years ago (around the time they killed off Greg or Terry). The latest season seems to be making a return to form though. I wish I knew how any of that happened. And like someone upthread said, there is something about it that fills my heart and just makes the blues go away. Maybe it’s an idealized version of our suburban childhoods?

r47, yeah, he's the only character that never really worked on the show for me.

Roger will go down as one of the greatest television creations ever. He is comedic gold and is pretty much DL incarnate.

That was a very weird show R61. Uncomfortably weird.

I came to really appreciate Steve on "American Dad" upon second viewings of the show. He was very funny and for some reason I didn't notice it at first watch. Roger was too bloody brilliant. Loved him.

I loved tonight's family guy. I have a darker sense of humor, so maybe it's why I didn't find it weird or uncomfortable.
