Planet Family Guy 2009

The new look Planet Family Guy has officially arrived! As some of you may have already noticed we have been gradually rolling out the new design over the last two weeks; the whole site has now been updated.

A couple of new sections have been added to the site as part of the redesign: we now have our own search page from where you will be able to search our database of news and a new latest pictures section. There’s been loads of other slightly more subtle changes, so go explore and enjoy the new look!

Family Guy Party Game in the works?

Family Guy Video Game

IGN are reporting that leaked information has revealed a new Family Guy game is in the works. Recently leaked information suggests that a new party game is coming to the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii. The news comes from a former Game Designer at HB Studios, Chris Kolmatycki, via his Linkedin page on which his portfolio has highlighted his pre-production work for a “Family Guy Party Game”.

It has been nearly three years since the first Family Guy video game hit the shelves for the Xbox and PS2. There’s still no official word on this potential new addition, but the rumours sound reasonably reliable.

UK: Season 8 DVD out today

Baby Not On Board

The UK Family Guy Season 8 DVD release has hit the shops a week earlier than we expected; in fact it is out in shops as of today! Basically the same as the US Volume 7 release from earlier this year, just confusingly (as always) renamed Season 8; don’t be disappointed as the 13 episodes included are taken from seasons 6 and 7, not the eighth season.

Sherlock Holmes to support Family Guy Variety Special

Seth and Alex's Almost Live Comedy Show

Just under a week since Microsoft pulled out of sponsoring the upcoming special, Family Guy Presents: Seth and Alex’s Almost Live Comedy Show, Warner Bros have seized the opportunity and will be using the special to promote their upcoming Sherlock Holmes film (to be released Christmas Day). Whether the special will feature promotions exclusively for “Sherlock Holmes” remains to be seen, but the movie certainly will have a prominent spot in the program. A commercial in Fox’s pregame broadcast before Game 3 of the World Series told viewers to tune in to the Nov. 8 special for a sneak peek of the movie.

The schedule for November 8th currently looks like this;

  • 7:30pm: American DadMan in the Moonbounce
  • 8:00pm: Family GuyBrian’s Got a Brand New Bag (guest voice Aimee Garcia)
  • 8:30pm: Seth and Alex’s Almost Live Comedy Show
  • 9:00pm: Family GuyHannah Banana Quagmire’s Baby
  • 9:30pm: The Cleveland ShowCleveland Jr. Cherry Bomb (guest voices by Jason Sudeikis, Arianna Huffington and Jamie Kennedy)

Microsoft pull sponsorship of MacFarlane and Borstein special

Seth and Alex's Almost Live Comedy Show

Variety is reporting that Microsoft have pulled there sponsorship of Fox’s Seth MacFarlane and Alex Borstein special to be aired on November 8th. The comedy/variety special, Family Guy Presents: Seth and Alex’s Almost Live Comedy Show, was due to air free of commercial breaks due to special in show branding of Windows 7; however, Microsoft have withdrawn from the arrangement due to concerns over the show’s content: “We initially chose to participate in the Seth and Alex variety show based on the audience composition and creative humor of ‘Family Guy,’ but after reviewing an early version of the variety show, it became clear that the content was not a fit with the Windows brand,” said a Microsoft spokeswoman. “We continue to have a good partnership with Fox, Seth MacFarlane and Alex Borstein and are working with them in other areas. We continue to believe in the value of brand integrations and partnerships between brands, media companies and talent.”

Fox still plans on airing the show which was recorded the other week, but are looking for a new sponsor. The special will feature as part of an evening dedicated to Seth MacFarlane’s shows on Sunday November 8th, including two new episodes of Family Guy.
