Q.

You told The Hollywood Reporter, “Part of me thinks that ‘Family Guy’ should have already ended.” What did you mean by this?
A.

Whenever I see a popular show start to wane, I always wonder, do the people working on it know that? Or are they thinking that what they’re doing is full of greatness? And that’s all that was. I always said to myself, if and when “Family Guy” ever gets to that point, I would try to be objective enough to ask that question. None of us are sick of it yet. It’s a question of whether the fans will ever get sick of it and I’m sure at some point they will.
Q.

Could you envision a scenario where “Family Guy” continues but you aren’t working on it day-to-day?
A.

Yeah, that happened during the movie. I was in Boston so there was only so much I could do. I could see that at some point down the line.
