The only way that I can see Family Guy coming to syndication is if they keep making new episodes to be run in syndication. Kind of how they made syndicated episodes of Too Close for Comfort, Webster, Charles in Charge to have more than the quota that the syndication market calls for.

I don't know, I don't think it's totally impossible for it to go into syndication. A cable network like USA can pick up shows like Boston Common and Fired Up(who combined probably don't have 100 episodes) why can't Comedy Central or Cartoon Network pick it up and show them on a Sunday night like they did with The Critic(another show I doubt had 100 eps.)???

That is true. I was thinking that Comedy Central could air them, but only like twice a week. As for the Critic, they did not make 100 episodes. After it was cancelled off of ABC, FOX then picked it ip and added some things to it. Then it was cancelled and the finished work came to Comedy Central. If they show it on USA, they would be showing the same shows every 2 1/2 months.

Yea, Two fo a kind has like what 23-24 episodes and it's shown everyday on Fox Family 4 times a day. Any show can go into syndication if a network expresses interest in it.

This show is not coming to syndication this fall. The syndication I was talking about was for network channels, you need a 100 episodes for that.

"Family Guy" would make a great addition to "Adult Swim" on Cartoon Network...

Or at least 90-something episodes, Pavan!
