I can kind of see him transitioning into acting and becoming like a modern Billy Crystal/Johnny Carson hybrid. If you look at his resume he's not actually much of a writer, he's more a creator who floats his ideas to his dedicated team and they come up with his "brand" of humor. By all accounts he's supposed to be a really nice guy, though. I've never met anyone who's personally met him and thought he was a dick, so good for him.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14593480444098247437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-50696416759812488522012-10-02T10:55:20.484-07:002012-10-02T10:55:20.484-07:00I don't think this cost Seth a dime. He's...I don't think this cost Seth a dime. He's the one in control now, he basically has H'Wood by the balls. His stuff sells on TV, in movies, on itunes, @ Best Buy, etc and it appeals to a huge market. Unfortunate perhaps but true. He probably wouldn't have so much leverage if Fox hadn't screwed up in cancelling his show and then had to come crawling back and give him ungodly amounts of money (and even more shows)... <br /><br />Now at least I know my husband will be willing to watch the Oscars. And more important, please do not break up with Emilia Clarke btwn now and then because I CANNOT wait to see what The Khaleesi would wear to the Oscars! If she needs a Khalisar to go with her I'd happily volunteer to join as long as I don't have to be near her gross boyfriend. <br /><br />And yeah there is something totally douchey about him. There are some weird lines on some Family Guy eps where he takes shots at women in H'Wood (like Lindsay Lohan, that one was particularly harsh) and I have a sneaking suspicion they aren't just coincidental and may be based on real life.... But that could be just me.lzaharthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03806206203137718107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-49245208906574538872012-10-02T07:13:43.532-07:002012-10-02T07:13:43.532-07:00I wonder how much of his Family Guy $ it cost him ...I wonder how much of his Family Guy $ it cost him to get this gig.<br /><br />He publicly stated a couple of years ago that he was trying to get really recognizably famous as well as really rich. ms snarkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13978084824748408959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-89465445222054683552012-10-02T01:55:35.070-07:002012-10-02T01:55:35.070-07:00I love Seth and so thankful that he made Family Gu...I love Seth and so thankful that he made Family Guy and American Dad but there's just something really douchey about his face don'tcha reckon?misspeg86https://www.blogger.com/profile/14738441856114764675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-70903807564878348042012-10-02T01:25:08.540-07:002012-10-02T01:25:08.540-07:00+1, Comma Chaser+1, Comma ChaserLux Luthorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06798774383718882652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-19507445929929913912012-10-02T01:23:41.787-07:002012-10-02T01:23:41.787-07:00Love him as a writer, not sure yet about him as a ...Love him as a writer, not sure yet about him as a performer.

Seth has a really good singing voice, combined with his humor which can run from common denominator potty jokes to fantastic satire. He's got a few months to work it out, and yes, stay away from the spray tan.

You know how you know he's a pro? He doesn't laugh in sketches. I DO love Jimmy Fallon but his laughing in every sketch although it makes me laugh too, is a bit unprofessional. That said, with that much comedic talent around me, I don't think I could keep a straight face either!
