When culture pops, we wipe it up ...

I think we can mostly agree that the 2013 Oscars weren't exactly the best they've ever been. They were a decent try and there were some good bits, but it just never came together. Well, for those of you hoping the rumors that Seth MacFarlane would come back to host again in next year were true, turns out that's not going to happen MORE
Yeah, this is not a good week to be Seth MacFarlane. First there was the trouble with that intentionally altered Family Guy clip, and now the long suffering The Cleveland Show might be getting the axe, according to Entertainment Weekly ... FOX issued a few talking points about The Cleveland Show reports that pretty much reiterate what’s already been out there, though the network put stronger emphasis on the point that no decision has been MORE
A couple months back, Family Guy ran an episode where Peter wins the Boston Marathon by driving his car through it, then bombs the Quahog bridge in two completely different scenes that have nothing to do with each other. Unfortunately, someone saw those, said "HERP DERP CONSPIRACY!" and tried to frame it as Seth MacFarlane either predicting the bombings or somehow acting as the government's puppet or ... something. Honestly, the whole falls apart MORE
Oh come on, you knew this was going to happen eventually, right? Family Guy is one of the most popular entertainment phenomena since HBO realized you can show nipples late at night. The show's been cancelled twice, and was the first show to ever be brought back based on DVD sales. So of course, Seth MacFarlane is talking about bringing it to the big screen. Via HuffPo: The 39-year-old entertainer urged the aspiring filmmakers and MORE
Since the last two telecasts of the Oscars essentially boiled down to "toked-up hipster douche stands around doing nothing while Anne Hathaway tries to salvage a sinking ship" and "Billy Crystal did blackface," this story about Seth MacFarlane hosting the Oscars is ... surprisingly a step in the right direction. From Deadline ... “We are thrilled to have Seth MacFarlane host the Oscars. His performing skills blend perfectly with our ideas MORE
Since Seth MacFarlane's directorial debut Ted somehow managed to turn a movie about a foul-mouthed teddy bear into one of the biggest hits of the summer, while Frank Ocean released Channel Orange one of the most critically acclaimed R&B albums of all-time, it would only make sense that Saturday Night Live would recruit them to kick off the brand new season. And what do you know, that's exactly what happened, weird how that works! Via HuffPo MORE
This past Friday was the theatrical release of Seth MacFarlane's first film Ted, which follows the traditional route of schlubby slacker (for some reason played with the impeccably cut Mark Wahlberg) with the understanding but way-too-good-for-him girlfriend (Mila Kunis, who's perfect for this kind of part) and the wise-cracking best friend who shouldn't talk but does, which is wacky and zany and wackedy-shmakedy-doo! This time, Seth made the MORE
I'll admit it, but despite what some of its detractors say, Family Guy is still what I would call a "decent show". It's fairly hit-or-miss now, but when the show focuses on one specific plot like (see: any episode focusing on Brian and Stewie) or plays to a specific genre (the fantastically underrated "And Then There Were Fewer") it becomes an absolutely solid show. Unfortunately, it mostly eschews these in favor of shock horror without emotional MORE
