"Family Guy Live" comes to Chicago










WMOR-TV in Tampa adds
Family Guy to schedule


Walt Belcher in the Tampa Tribune is reporting Hearst-Argyle's WMOR-TV in Tampa-St. Petersburg is adding Family Guy this fall in addition to Reno 911 and Law & Order: Criminal Intent and is also adding The Office in the fall of 2009. The independent station, once known as WTMV and (former WB affiliate) WWWB, also is adding Dead Zone and Chappelle's Show for weekend play.

Also in that article, Belcher mentions the Family Guy live table-reading in Los Angeles at the Beverly Hills Hilton during the TV critics' press tour. The cast performed the X-rated version of the series 100th episode named "Stewie Kills Lois".

The cast is coming to the Chicago Theater on Sept. 14 to perform the same table read with two shows, at 7 and 10 p.m. For ticket information, click here.

Family Guy Live also has performed at the Just For Laughs festival in Montreal and has also performed in New York.

On a personal note, The T Dog Media Blog wants to say thank you to the cast and crew of Family Guy for coming to the Windy City to perform the table read. Yours truly will be there on the 14th. Freakin' Sweet!

Family Guy airs on WGN-TV here in Chicago weeknights at 6:30 and at 10 beginning Sept. 10.
