Family Guyhas been hitting the 8 PM EST/7 PM CST spot on Fox for season 23, with the exception of March 23rd, when it was preempted to a later time for a hockey game. It grounds our gears, too, because sports will always have the upper hand over scripted shows.
This Sunday, March 30th,Family Guywill be moving to a new time, asThe Simpsonswill reclaim its 8 PM/7 PM slot as the animated continues season 36. The last we saw Homer and his family on Sunday was "Bottle Episode" in December. If you kept track, that's three months of waiting and a long one at that.
So far, season 23 ofFamily Guyhas been pretty solid in terms of its material and humor payoff in the episodes, and to help endure the near-year hiatus and as part of the 25th anniversary, Hulu droppedtwo holiday-themed episodesin September and November, respectively. Some say these bonus segments are included in season 22, but they're not, as they've been classified as specials and will not air on broadcast TV.
I've been enjoying the new episodes this season, and while some of the storylines were a little out of this world, such as "The Chicken or The Meg," there were plenty of instances where laughing was included.Family Guyisn't meant to be serious; it's intended to relieve stress and offer rather offensive jokes that push the boundaries slightly. Some hate it, but the majority of people that I know love it.
Moving on, here's whenFamily Guywill be airing at its new time on Sunday, March 30th.
Family Guywill have this permanent time space
Beginning on March 30th and thereafter,Family Guywill start at 8:30 PM EST/7:30 PM CST, following a brand-new episode ofThe Simpsons, "The Flandshees of Innersimpson." What's more, is that the newFamily Guyepisode will be titled "Pitch Impefect."
As you probably guessed, the episode is baseball-themed and right on time for the Chicago Cubs Opening Day on April 4th. We'll have a full preview of "Pitch Imperfect" so fans will know what to expect. It's highly likely that Peter will cause a shenanigan or two, andBrian and Stewiewill pair up in the grand scheme of things.
Family Guyhas plenty more antics coming up in season 23 and they'll resume at their new time on Sunday.
