Boom goes the dynamite! It doesn’t get as much attention as its parent TV show, and maybe that’s a good thing for this spin-off from the Fox animated series Family Guy because it’s given the creative team a chance to build something really special. And really, really funny. The animate adventures of Cleveland Brown and his new family run the gantlet from the familiar (celebrating Thanksgiving with family) to the fantastic (the hilarious ‘live’ episode), with the pendulum often swinging from extreme to extreme in a single episode. It may start out as a story about equal rights for the overweight, but when the characters leave Stoolbend to go to Wisconsin is where everybody is almost too fat to walk, it’s both weird and wonderful.
