LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Sanaa Lathan and Nia Long have come on board Fox's "Family Guy" spinoff "The Cleveland Show," which is scheduled for a midseason berth.
Lathan ("Raisin in the Sun") will voice a single mom and the love interest of Cleveland Brown (Mike Henry), the henpecked neighbor of the Griffins. Long ("Big Shots") will voice her rebellious teen daughter.

I think it was in the Rolling Stone article about South Park last year (but I’m not 100% sure), Matt and Trey said they got calls and gifts from the Simpson’s and King of the Hill people thanking them for calling out Family Guy.
lol, a plot...
Speaking of which, did I ever tell you about the time I was Madonna’s toaster?
Hey, I said I haven’t had my caffeine yet! I better have it. I’m getting grumpy. LOL ;-)
Completely off-topic, your Pandora looks like my Lucky.
“Simpson's already did it” was also a good South Park episode. Very clever, and the commentary was also very good about how many ideas were shot down by the resident Simpson's fan with “Simpson's already did it.” :)
LOL! Lucky is the sweetest cat I've ever had, but she is really smart (for a cat) and that's a dangerous quality in a cat.
That's awesome. That's the season with Make Love, Not Warcraft, right? I have that season on DVD, but I've never listened to the commentary. I'll have to check it out.
Observations.
1) South Park is great, but you probably knew that. Very funny and nobody's ox is spared from a good goreing.
2) Very topical. I kept being reminded...”Oh THAT is what everyone was talking about back in 2003.”
3) Watch every episode on the disk, then go through them with the commentary on. They only talk through the first five minutes or so of each episode, but the commentaries are consistently funny.
4) Trey and Matt are comedic geniuses.
Amusement
a-muse-ment
a...alpha-negative prefix
muse...to think
ment...suffix indicating action.
Hence, a-muse-ment is the act of not thinking.
Lack of cognitive activity.
no thanks.
Not for me.
Life too short to waste on trash like this which only serves to dumb down the values of our society and to perpetuate immorality.
They’re available for free on the South Park Studios site, but that’s without the commentary and they do have one or two 30 second commercial breaks.
Matt and Trey and the rest of the writers are geniuses. The episode that really blew me away was “Christmas in Canada” where the boys went to Canada to get Ike back and it was a Wizard of Oz parody. I kept thinking, “How did they come up with this??” Not to mention, “There’s no Canada like French Canada!” was stuck in my head for days.
“The Quagmire’s would be a better spin off.”
I couldn’t agree more
