Fox Mid-Season Pilot Review: Bordertown - Premieres January 3 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Bordertown - Sundays at 9:30PM ET/PT on Fox
Premieres Sunday, January 3, 2016 at 9:30PM ET/PT

Over the past several years--and especially in the past few months, as a certain presidential candidate has jumped into the 2016 race--immigration on the border between the United States and Mexico has been a big political issue. Now, Family Guy executive producer Mark Hentemann has created a new animated comedy, with Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane by his side as executive producer, called Bordertown. It's a series about two radically different neighbors who live on the American the United States/Mexico border, one of them a family of lower-class Americans with a father who is deeply anti-immigration (and he even works as a border patrol officer) and the other a family of Mexican immigrants who've obtained American citizenship, and happen to be more successful in their new country than their new neighbors.

How Does ‘Bordertown’ Compare To Seth MacFarlane’s Other Shows?

I loved BorderTown. About time something new came along. Hope it lasts a long time. It deserves positive recognition.

It's funny how Ernesto is doing better financially than Bud. The series is coming off to a great start so far.

Been waiting for this show to debut since its announcement in 2012. Wish we didn't have to had waited so long for its debut.

Bud Buckwald is the best Seth MacFarlane character since Stan Smith. He talks like Al Bundy and Bullwinkle. Yet, he's all Archie Bunker.
