The reviews are in (well, one is!)

Family Guy Sings! was performed on November 24th and 25th at Carnegie Hall. It featured the core cast of Seth MacFarlane’s animated series, backed by a 40-piece orchestra. The program consisted of an unedited live reading of two episodes, plus a selection of popular songs from the series. An earlier and less elaborate version of the shindig, Family Guy Live, was performed at the “Just For Laughs” festival in Montreal and later traveled to LA, Chicago, and New York City. But the Carnegie Hall night was far more fancy schmancy.

Broadway World has a review and a set of photos of the evening’s entertainment.

I’ve been getting emails wondering about Seth MacFarlane’s Zoomates coming on Channel Frederator.

Yes, it’s true. Tuesday’s Episode 19 will feature Seth’s Oh Yeah! Cartoons short from 1998, directed and designed by Butch Hartman, and featuring the voice of Jennifer Love Hewitt. It was his last project before starting Family Guy for Fox. We’ll post some more of the background after the short airs.

Pass it on.
