Do we really have to wait a whole year for Family Guy?

[Sugah]

I was looking at some news here @ TZ and read all about Family Guy, loved it been watching it a lot :D ... but do we really have to wait till mid 2005 for Fox to air it? Does Cartoon Network have the rights to claim them as new episodes? :confused: :sad:

First of all, the animation is still being made. It takes months to finish a batch.

Second, people remember, Fox owns Family Guy lock, stock, and barrel. They're still the ones funding the $1+ million per ep cost, with CN only paying the license fee. CN can't do crap with FG; Fox will make sure they are the first to recoup their considerable investment.

The new eps will be seen on Cartoon Network. Fox has said that they may show a few of them, but otherwise, it will be CN-only.

Fox is going to run season 4 in summer 2005. Knowing Fox, CN will probably get the 2nd run.
