Cleveland beating Simpsons

The One About Friends

Three weeks into the new season and new comer The Cleveland Show has beaten The Simpsons, both on Fox, in the ratings for a second week! An impressive feat for the Family Guy spin-off. On Sunday night Cleveland managed 7.8 million viewers (a 14% drop on last week) whilst The Simpsons was watched by 7.5 million (an 18% drop).

Family Guy is still the most watched of Fox’s animated shows attracting 8.9 million viewers (a 12% drop); American Dad was watched by 6.7 million (dropping just 6%).

So The Cleveland Show seems to be doing very well for Fox. Is this a surprise or a no brainer? Are you enjoying the latest from Seth MacFarlane and co.?

Mike Henry talks to Forbes

The Cleveland Show title

Mike Henry has been talking to Forbes.com about his new series The Cleveland Show discussing why he’s aiming for a more family friendly audience and how it differs from sister-show Family Guy. There’s also some discussion on the potential controversy over three white guys writing a black comedy.

On the humor of The Cleveland Show Henry said, “we’ll take shots at celebrities that seem to warrant them and we’ll have tons of potty and sex jokes, but my money is on people caring about Cleveland.” Both Mike Henry and fellow producer Rich Appel have children which Henry has cited as the reason behind making the show more family friendly than Family Guy.
