In this weeks issue of TV Guide(on sale Thursday), Family Guy is on the cover. There's actually four collectible covers available in newstands, one with Peter and Lois, one with Chris and Meg, one with Brian, and one with Stewie. Meanwhile, those who have a subscription get the generic cover with all of them on it. Oh, well, like I give a damn about the cover. The article inside is 4 pages. Nothing too interesting, though I did learn that Chris' middle name is Cross and Stewie's middle name is Gilligan, or did I already know that?

They've definately said Stewie's middle name in the series. When, I don't remember.

Wow! .....Has there been an issue in recent years that WASN'T a multicover deal? And why do the editors love Elvis so much?

Yeah, seriously there's been about 12 Desperate Houswive/Lost covers this whole season, it's really making me hate those shows even more!

As long as Family Guy continues to be one of the big summer shows there'll be plenty of coverage for it. At least it's not one of those top 50 issues, you can only have so many top 50 things that eventually it'll get around to the Top 50 Toilets in Television History.

I think Lois calls him Stuart Gillian Griffin when scolding him once. I also think Peter may say it once. I didn't know Chris's middle name.

No, it was the episode when Stewie went to the airport & froze the desk clerk, I forget which one. But he demanded a cheesburger("No pickes, for every pickle I shall find...I shall kill you").

So this must be the first time Family guy has been on the tv guide cover. I bet people won't care though. I didn't know their middle names but now i do! yay knowledge!

Actually, you can buy all the covers at http://shop.tvguide.com (http://www.tvguide.com). Oh, we also learn that Seth was supposed to be on that fateful flight on 9/11/01, but he missed it.

Well, a lot of people already knew that, but man, it's kind of sends a chill down your spine when you hear stories like that. I mean, it could have been one little event that made him late, without that one little event we'd have no more Family Guy, and more importantly, no more Seth McFarland. But, you heard stories like this all the time.

I remember hearing that Jackie Chan was originally scheduled to shoot a movie on top of the Twin Towers on 9/11 but shooting was cancelled on that day.

I remember one of my professors told me that on the day of the attacks one of his students told him that her mom worked in the twin towers. When he asked her if she was okay she said "Yeah, she's fine. She got fired yesterday."

Man, it has to make you think when people miraculously escape death like that.

I saw the Family Guy TV Guide at my local supermarket. I can't believe these days there are sometimes two or more covers for an issue. I glad to see Family Guy get some cover time on the TV Guide. Maybe someday American Dad gets on the cover of TV Guide.

I'm glad Family Guy is getting some more press, higher ratings means more episodes in the long run.:)

Not really, since considering how busy the towers were, I'd say at least a dozen people cancelled going there or just missed going there every single day of their existence.
