Summary Family Guy season 23 breaks a 20-year tradition, getting removed from Fox's Fall TV lineup and airing midseason instead.
The new animated comedy Universal Basic Guys is premiering in its stead, with Family Guy moving to Wednesday nights when it returns.
Family Guy season 23 has broken a 20-year-old series tradition after being removed from Fox's Fall TV lineup, despite being ordered for a full season. The series is one of many long-running animated comedies, such as The Simpsons and Bob's Burgers, that air on the network, having been a staple of the channel for quite some time. Season 23 is expected to continue the show's tradition of cutaway humor and memorable characters, with a full season order having already been placed.
However, Deadline has confirmed that Family Guy season 23 will not be part of Fox's Fall 2024 TV schedule, and will begin during midseason instead. The show is being moved to allow for the premiere of the new animated comedy Universal Basic Guys, which will join existing Sunday comedies Krapopolis, The Simpsons, and Bob's Burgers. When the Seth MacFarlane-created show does come back, it will also be on Wednesday nights instead.
More to come...
