the baby in Family Guy

You've got quite the empire yourself now. It turns out that The Cleveland Show,doudoune moncler pas cher, the Family Guy spinoff starring the Griffins' black neighbour, has been a surprise hit on Fox this autumn.
Why do an extended Star Wars parody?
No,air jordan chaussure, that was a journalist printing only part of the comment and making a story out of it. I said we had written an episode at one point in which Stewie comes out of the closet. But we scrapped it because we felt like we got a lot more mileage out of him being uncertain and not making that decision just yet.

But wait — Stewie,air jordan, the baby in Family Guy, doesn't exactly look like Darth Vader, even though he plays him in this film.
I would certainly hope so. I was at the Creative Arts Emmys this year, and Carol Burnett was one of the presenters. And when she came out, everyone gave her a standing ovation, including me. It was a moment that you only get in Hollywood: Giving a standing ovation to somebody who sued you a year ago.
Carol Burnett also sued you — unsuccessfully — over a parody that spoofed her famous cleaning-lady character. Do you think she has a sense of humour?
Like I had no spine.


Exactly. They're dressed a little gayer.



We got very depressed and thought, "Well, this is it." But to our surprise, Lucasfilm said something we never, ever hear: "OK, you can do it, just make sure the characters look exactly like they do in the movies."

Certainly we would have a laugh doing this with Indiana Jones or Wrath of Khan. But I can't imagine in a billion years that Paramount would give us permission.

How often do the Fox censors tell you that certain gags have to come out?
Other than the distortion to fit Stewie's head,moncler quincy, the helmet is pretty much the same. The Stormtroopers look like Stormtroopers.
As a matter of fact, when the first Blue Harvest episode was about to air, we were invited up to his ranch and we sat down and watched it with him. We were half-expecting him to say,moncler, "You know what? We can't allow this to air." But he brought his son,nike air jordan, and they were both into it.

Very often. About half the jokes that are on our standards list in every episode don't make it into the show. You trade. It's about quantity.
The first episode came about because we were doing so many Star Wars gags that finally Fox's legal department said, "Hey,moncler pas cher, we got to start clearing this with Lucas or we're gonna get sued."
How did it make you feel?
So you actually cleared this with George Lucas?

I always thought it would be funny to have the Parents Television Council write an episode of Family Guy and give them full creative control. Then see how good the episode is. That's something we've actually discussed in the writers' room. We haven't proposed it yet, but if somebody from the PTC reads this, it might be worth discussing.

We actually didn't get a single studio note on that. Fox is notorious for having a very thick skin about taking shots at themselves.

Except yours are wearing mesh shirts.

At the start of the new film, you have fun ridiculing Fox, which released the Star Wars movies, for letting Lucas take all the merchandising rights.

No one really knew what to expect, because Cleveland is not the obvious choice for a spinoff. But the things that we were hoping would work have in fact worked. It feels like its own thing, not just another episode of Family Guy.

But you've made some powerful enemies along the way with your tasteless humour. The Parents Television Council, the advocacy group, consistently attacks your show.

That whole press whirlwind was hilarious to me. It's not even news. He's not gay — he doesn't even exist,jordan chaussure!
Did you hear from Lucas himself?
You raised another firestorm recently by suggesting that Stewie is gay.
Everybody knows Star Wars — at least, everybody in our audience. And Lucasfilm is probably the only company out there right now that is progressive enough to allow this.

Seth MacFarlane, 36, created Family Guy, Fox's animated sitcom, which this year was nominated for a prime-time Emmy. Fox just released the DVD Family Guy: Something, Something, Something Dark Side, a follow-up to the 2007 Blue Harvest episode that spoofed the Star Wars franchise.
