Family Guy appears on iTunes
We've heard many times before that Fox was interested in getting on iTunes, and now it seems a deal has been worked out-- Family Guy has appeared on iTunes. Now you can watch the Griffins (including Stewie, definitely my favorite) on your Apple TV, iPod, or iPhone.There's only one episode up as of this writing, however, and a little birdie tells me that the episode is "b0rked" in technical terms-- apparently the quality isn't very good, and it may have simply been a test to start getting the show online. Unfortunately, while the episode posted is pretty good (it stars Drew Berrymore as Brian's dumb girlfriend), we have no idea what else is going to show up in iTunes-- if they're going to do full seasons, or a "greatest hits" of downloads.Either way, Family Guy is on iTunes. Welcome, Griffins.Thanks to everyone who sent this in!
Stewie Griffin iPod ad
Last night while watching The Family Guy on Fox I was very surprised (and equally amused) to see character Stewie Griffin's "iPod commercial." For a few seconds he was dancing around in a sequence much like Apple's famous ads. Pretty funny, and got me thinking of the other prime time cartoons I can remember lately featuring Macs and Apple products. Homer Simpson has been portrayed as using a fruit-colored computer on more than one occasion, as have characters on the ill-fated "Futurama." Seems that a lot of animators (or writers) are staring at Macs all day.
