New England's Other Famous Irish Family To Return?

A little birdie has told me that the tremendous sales of The Family Guy on DVD has lead to 20th Century Fox and Cartoon Network coming together in a co-financing deal to produce 35 new episodes. While details were scarce on exact figures or what role show creator Seth MacFarlane would have in the revival, this has to have set some sort of record for most cancellations/renewals of a prime-time television show, especially in a five-year time frame.

There is also speculation going around about the topic of a movie that is currently in production, based on said program. Sources say the movie will be based on the loveable yet megalomaniacal Stewie. Rumors have it Stewie is going on a very important quest for knowledge
