Seth MacFarlane & Showrunners Exit ‘Family Guy’ & ‘American Dad’ Until Striking WGA Gets New Contract.

Seth MacFarlane and the showrunners for American Dad and Family Guy are putting down their tools and talents until the Writers Guild of America has a new deal with the studios.

Multiple Emmy winner MacFarlane, American Dad’s Brian Boyle and Matt Weitzman and Family Guy’s Rich Appel and Alec Sulkin made it clear to Walt Disney Television Studios,20th Television & 20th Television Animation this week that none of them will be working on the respective series as long as the WGA remains on strike.

His appearance with fellow WGA members and his walking off the two shows should be no big surprise, as MacFarlane was a big advocate for the WGA holding strong during the last strike of 2007-2008 

Family Guy and American Dad are one of the few animated shows that are part of WGA since inception, other shows in the WGA union include Fox Entertaiment’s Housebroken, Krapopolis & Grimsburg.

Sidney Crosby stories

from Jeff Marek's show/podcast on April 8

(1) One of Jeff's favorite stories: a player was practicing with Sid and some others on one end of the ice and as they skated around, eventually the ice got chewed up. One of them suggested relocating to the other end of the rink where the ice was still fresh, and Sid said, "No, we're going to stay here, because it's harder. That's where I like to practice." (1:02:30 into the episode) (2) Brian Boyle's story was from the end of the 2021-22 season when he was with the team. The Penguins had secured a playoff position, so in game 82 versus Columbus, Sullivan only played Sid for 15 and a half minutes. The purpose was for him to have a lighter game with the playoffs coming up. Boyle was surprised to see Sid working hard on the bike after the game. After watching Sid for 25 minutes, he asked, "Are you going to get off [the bike]?" and Sid said, "I only played 15 minutes!" Boyle pointed out how many games he had played to that point in the season and that he had played 22 minutes in the prior game. "You got some reps. You got a good workout." And Sid said, "No, I gotta be ready. I gotta be ready to play more." He spent 20 more minutes on the bike. (1:03:45 into the episode; photo of Boyle with Crosby, Evan Rodriguez and Jake Guentzel from 2022)

Yay charity bags! Never thought about autographing jerseys. Interesting that they primarily just have a stack of 7s in front of Sidney. Makes total sense though! (Both taken from the Mario Lemieux Foundation’s Facebook page.)
