    I find it hard to believe Family Guy is still on. It stopped being funny like 15 years ago.

      I read simmering a while ago that McFarlane wanted to stop the show years ago because it had run its course but the studio threw a ton of money at him to keep going so he did.

        Of course money would talk.

        Though any other Family Guy fan would say that it ran it’s course shortly after the third season. That’s 19 years ago.

      Cost to produce it < money it makes

      As long as that holds true.

        That’s true only true if there’s not a show people would watch instead. At this point they’re hoping these shows act as anchors for their streaming service. I just suspect they over invested in “what do millennials use as sleep aids” will come crashing down

          I got hit by a “are you still there?” after 15 minutes of Futurama last night and they were almost right. They’re on to us
