Fox takes over FAMILY GUY

Animation company Film Roman has announced that due to production
differences Fox will take over production responsibilities on June 1 for
Family Guy, which is currently in production on its second season. The
primetime show Family Guy airs at 8:30 pm on Sunday in the coveted spot
after The Simpsons and has been a hit with biting, racy humor. While Fox
spokespeople say that it will be handled "in-house," a specific division or
Fox-owned company has yet to be named. Film Roman, which produced 15
episodes of Seth MacFarlane's show, will continue to produce The Simpsons
and King Of The Hill. Film Roman has made bold moves over the course of the
past two years to become a larger force in animation by, among other
things, creating an aggressive development slate, and hiring such industry
leaders as Eric Radomski (Batman, Spawn).
