Fox Considering a Return of "Family Guy"
wo1verin3 writes: "USA Today is reporting that all is not lost and due to exceptionally strong DVD sales Family Guy may return with as many as 35 new episodes! A DVD set of the show's first 28 episodes, released in April, has sold nearly 1 million copies, making it this year's top-selling TV show and the No. 4 television title ever, according to Video Store magazine."
I hated Family Guy when it first came out. I thought it was a Simpsons rip off, which is the farthest thing from the truth. Family Guy is one of the best written shows EVER. The only thing that comes close is the first 6 seasons of the Simpsons. People who hate Family Guy need to watch ALL of the episodes. Family Guy's humor takes a while to get used to, but once you do, there is no going back. Futurama fans are going to be pist off if FG returns, but too bad. Family Guy should have not been cancelled in the first place. If it returns, it will be the first show to return after two cancellations. Family guy was hobbled by poor scheduling (it was up against fucking friends and Survivor!) If it returns, it needs to be put on AFTER the simpsons. After one season it will become painfully apparent who is the (now) better show and may finally lay the simpsons down to it's well deserved eternal slumber.

What, pray, is this <censored/> doing on the front page of Slashdot?
Just thought I'd echo the other guy's comment.
I don't get the big deal about firefly it was a patent rip off of Farscape. All they did was get rid of the aliens for various humans and shuffle the personality quirks. Think about it.

This show is like a vampire. No one seems to be able to put the friggin wooden steak into it's heart! Cancelled Futurama and The Critic, but someone there LOVES this stale piece of crap.
