I had heard rumors about this…and this might be totally old news…but dear God they are making “The Cleveland Show.” Here is the setup from Fox:
Many years ago, CLEVELAND BROWN (voiced by Mike Henry) was a high school student madly in love with a beautiful girl named DONNA. Much to his dismay, his love went unrequited, and Donna wound up marrying another man. Cleveland once told Donna he would always love her, and if this man ever done her wrong, he’d be there when she called. Well, this man done her wrong. Donna’s husband skipped town with another woman, leaving Donna with a daughter and a baby. Now she’s come to Cleveland and offered him another chance at love. Unattached after the Loretta-Quagmire debacle and true to his word, Cleveland joyously accepts and he and CLEVELAND JR. move to Stoolbend, VA, to join their new family. Once in Stoolbend, Cleveland has a few surprises in store for him, including a flirtatious new stepdaughter, a 5-year-old stepson who loves the ladies, as well as a collection of neighbors that includes a loudmouth redneck couple, a British family seemingly stuck in the Victorian era and a family of bears living at the end of the block. FAMILY GUY was only the beginning. Get ready for THE CLEVELAND SHOW (working title)!
So, I know it is going to be a stretch, but I have always said I will give anything Seth MacFarland does a chance. “American Dad” sucks, but still, come on…CLEVELAND?!? I am totally watching this.
Cleveland kicks ass. I’m so there.
Have you ever gone to a coffee shop and ordered a “Cleveland Steamer?” Mmmm…. yummy.
Huh, Cleveland, his “wife”, a teenage daughter, a fat kid, and a baby… reminds me of something, just cant put my finger on it…
I love Family Guy and as much as I enjoy Cleveland, I’m not sure about this. It doesn’t look very funny to me. And I will agree American Dad isn’t good either. Hmm…
Cleveland is hilarious. My husband and I talk in his voice when we talk to the dog and call him “the living end”. Sometimes, my husband will call me Lo-retta…It’s amazing how many Family Guy references you can work into everyday life! American Dad used to stink, but it’s gotten a lot better recently. Roger and the fish, Klaus, are great. I will definitely watch.
I don’t know, call me skeptical, but I don’t think this will last long. Cleveland is best known for his little lines like, “De No Funny” and “Hey Y’all Sock it to me!” or even “I gotta stop taking baths during Peter’s shenanigans.”
wow,sounds like someone is jumping on the new black power obama train
Florian, please save all political comments for Mockarena’s posts. Thanks.
Also, Wise…congrats on finally getting the word “shenanigans” on a MD post.
Politics free zone. Excellent. Starting to realize Dame is flat awesome too.
My husband and I love Family Guy, and American Dad defintitely has its moments. We’re totally watching this!
