Despite that Season 23 of “Family Guy” won’t premiere on Fox until midseason, the Seth MacFarlane series remains “crucial” to the lineup, Fox Television Network president Michael Thorn said Monday.
“It’s still a crucial part of our [schedule],” Thorn told members of the press ahead of the network’s upfront presentation on Monday. “We’ll give it a great relaunch for that part of our lineup, and we know that when it comes back on Sundays, it will resonate with our audience the way it always has.”
The series will return with a full season order and will have a mostly unbroken run of episodes.
