What's Hot on SlashControl - Family Guy Presents: Seth & Alex's Almost Live Variety Show

by Jane Boursaw, posted Nov 10th 2009 3:30PM
I'll say right off the bat that I didn't watch Family Guy Presents: Seth & Alex's Almost Live Variety Show, which aired this past Sunday. But I've been hearing about it for days, because my 15-year-old son is a huge fan of Family Guy.

I'm not sure what chip I'm missing that I don't find Family Guy as fascinating and hilariously funny as some. Reading some of the Twitter updates after a show airs, it's clear that some folks think it's the funniest thing they've ever seen. Then again, my son usually regales me with all the cool stuff he sees in TV shows, but didn't mention much about the Live Variety Show, so maybe it wasn't that great.

Jason had this to say about it: "Really, it was about the least funny or entertaining variety show I've ever seen. Going into this, I was going to suggest that maybe FOX should have skipped the second Family Guy and given them an hour for this thing, but now I'm going to say they should have skipped the variety show altogether." Here it is, from our sister site, SlashControl. Tell us what you think in the comments below.

Was put off by the holocaust/woman of comedy joke but other than that it was fun. Not that funny but fun.

Most of the show just fell flat for me, but I did like the parts where Seth and Alex sang as their cartoon counterparts. They should've taken what they did over the closing credits and made more of a show around that. Of course the songs with Stewie and Brian together might be a bit tough on Seth since he does both.

was pretty boring -- seth should stick to staying behind the scenes.

Yeah, this sucked. But I did laugh at the Marlee Matlin bit.
