Seth MacFarlane is hosting a week of his favorite Family Guy eps next week on Adult Swim on Cartoon Network. I saw the promos starting today, featuring [Seth](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0532235/).
The voice does not look like it belongs to that body. Before I checked IMDB I thought the promo was some bizarre dubbing thing done as a joke. He looks like he’s about four and a half feet tall. And his eyebrows seriously weird me out.
Yet I still find him hot.
That is all.

I want to carry Seth MacFarlane’s baby. Or try. _A lot_

Hee! He looks like a cartoon. But cute. Definitely cute.

I wonder if he’s there to announce something. I notice mention of a Family Guy movie on the IMDB and I’ve heard rumors of new Family Guy episodes. Anyone have any new info about that?

He’s there because they’re doing a best-of Family Guy thing with him giving comments (and maybe picking the eps? I don’t know). Family Guy will be back on the air in about a year, do a search and you’ll find out plenty about that.

Oh. I meant to add that he makes you wonder about fairness in the universe. “He’s young, rich and funny, and he gets THAT speaking voice? Are you kidding?” And then you look at him and wonder if it evens out. 😉

Anyone know if that’s his normal speaking voice? He did do a lot of voice acting for Family Guy, after all.

He sounded just like Brian.

On the DVD commentaries his voice sounds pretty consistently like Brian. Not exactly, but much closer than Peter or Stewie. Kinda like how you could hear snatches of Kermit whenever Jim Henson spoke.

That’s funny, because he’s the voice of Peter AND Stewie. Brian is actually Seth Green.

Sigh. He’s all 3. I confused Brian with the son. Sorry.

My favorite line:
"And as the kids say, “Be there, scumbag!”
And his voice doesn’t go with that body.

I didn’t even realize there was going to be a movie. Based on this part of the plot outline, …in which the young domination-bent baby, Stewie, discovers he is a homosexual. I can’t wait. 😃

If the series is being brought back, I kinda doubt the movie is going to happen. Some postings on the IMDb page back me up on that.

Oh well, as long as we get some fresh _Family Guy_ in whatever form it takes, I’ll be happy. But that Stewie storyline would be hilarious. Maybe they’ll at least hint at it in the new eps.

Can you imagine hanging out with this guy? I’d be reduced to a cackling lunatic every time he broke out his Stewie voice. “Good news, Dooku! I’ve decided not to KILL you!” Or his Quagmire voice. “Awwwwriiiight. Giggity-giggity!!”

“As the kids say, 'be there, you piece of sh[crap]!”

He’s so cute. He has such a boyish face, I tripped out hearing that voice and seeing him. I couldn’t quite figure out whose voices he was from that promo, though.

From interviews on the Family Guy discs, he is Brian, Peter, Stewie, Quagmire, Tom Tucker, and various other voices.
The voice you hear in the promos is his natural voice. As he said on the discs, Brian’s voice is almost his unaltered voice.
