Announcements of TV spinoffs generally draw sighs of boredom—if not exasperation—from advertisers seeking creativity on the networks. But when it comes to Family Guy spinoff The Cleveland Show, all bets are off. In fact, fans of Family Guy are hoping The Cleveland Show can replicate and maintain the awesome level of outrageousness that’s become a hallmark of the original.
