The relationship between Aquaman and Aqualad should be investigated.
Seth MacFarlane
If I were to do a musical, I think I would rather make a film musical.
Seth MacFarlane
There are people on staff who have made that point, that the upside to a second Bush term is that it makes 'American Dad' work better. To me, the price is too high. I would gladly give up the comedy to have a President Kerry. But you work with what you have.
Seth MacFarlane
The success of The Simpsons really opened doors. It showed that if you were working in animation you didn't necessarily have to be working in kids' television.
Seth MacFarlane
Denzel Washington has a great sense of humor. He did all those 'Nutty Professor' movies.
Seth MacFarlane
I'm one of the few people in Hollywood who actually had a good childhood.
Seth MacFarlane
If something is shocking without being funny it's hard to justify.
Seth MacFarlane
I'm wide open to getting married, but actors are not easy people to date. You end up sharing that person with this other mistress that is their career. I very much like the traditional courtship method of making a date. That's what they do in normal places, but Hollywood's not normal.
Seth MacFarlane
Believe it or not, I have about the same success rate as anyone else. Sometimes you hit, sometimes you miss.
Seth MacFarlane
Sarah Palin is very pro-life of course, unless the life is that of an Iraqi civilian or a wolf running frantically from a roaring helicopter while being strafed with ribbons of automatic weapons fire.
Seth MacFarlane
I'm from Connecticut, and we don't have any dialects. Well, I don't think we have any dialects, and yeah, it's very complex. That Rhode Island/Massachusetts New England region is arguably the hardest dialect to nail.
Seth MacFarlane
The way Disney characters move, they're very kind of slow and fluid and flowing one pose kind of eases into the next. If you look at a show like 'The Simpsons' and subsequently a show like 'Family Guy' - the characters will jerk from pose to pose a lot, a bit more snappy. Which sort of goes along with the writing tone of the show.
Seth MacFarlane
The Simpsons are ugly-looking, and they should be. That's what works. That's one of the things that's funny.
Seth MacFarlane
I spent my entire childhood in the same town, in Kent. I went to grade school there. There was a boarding school that my mother taught at, called - appropriately enough - Kent School, that I went to. Yeah, pretty much my entire childhood was spent in that town.
Seth MacFarlane
There are things about the single lifestyle that are very appealing.
Seth MacFarlane
I cannot tell good art from bad art. I have no eye for it.
Seth MacFarlane
Even if you know a character really well, there's no formula for what jokes will work and what won't.
Seth MacFarlane
Some of those more out-there jokes were written in the wee hours of the morning. Somehow, they remained funny the next day.
Seth MacFarlane
I always thought it would be funny to have the Parents Television Council write an episode of 'Family Guy' and give them full creative control. Then see how good the episode is. That's something we've actually discussed in the writers' room. We haven't proposed it yet, but if somebody from the PTC reads this, it might be worth discussing.
Seth MacFarlane
I hate people who say 'Just to play devil's advocate.'
