I notice our goods friends at the BBC have moved the slot of Family Guy on BBC3 again this week. First on tuesdays now wendesnday now on earlier than last week, but If it ever stayed still people might actully 'SEE' it and see how bloody good it is, and the beeb don't want that. It has to be tucked away so only a handful of us know about it. Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

6pm is far too early for Family Guy. Contrary to what it looks like, It's not really a kids programme.

My point is the way they treat it. It's almost like they want it to go unoticed (well they do).

Put it on BBC1 on a friday @9PM for once. The mainstream audience would love it I'd put money on it.

I watch it on FX. It's very well handled on there.

Definitely. They seem to show the older episodes more often though.

An educated guess of mine would say yes.

Actual Seasons and Broadcast seasons are different in America, because some broadcasters love to cut up seasons and show them at a later date. Futurama had 4 actual seasons but on TV it had 5 as i think they showed the latter half of Season 4 like a year after it was made..
