A live-action sitcom from Seth MacFarlane, Alec Sulkin and Wellesley Wild — aka the writers of the big-screen hit Ted — has skipped past the pilot process and earned a six-episode series order from Fox.

Titled Dads, the multi-cam comedy revolves around two successful guys in their 30s who find their lives turned upside-down when their nightmare fathers unexpectedly move in with them.

Sulkin and Wild will write and executive-produce Dads, with MacFarlane serving as a third, non-writing EP.
Anything Seth MacFarlane is attached too is something I’ll look forward to = ).

So…basically it’s a reverse-$h!* My Dad Says x 2?
is there ANYTHING on other than sitcoms this fall????
Plot sounds lame, but Seth MacFarlane can make a carton of milk funny. So I’d definitely check this out.
They should make the two guys Seinfeld and George Costanza and their dads.
It almost sounds like an updated version of “Frasier”. Just the Seth McFarlane name will have me tuning in! And, very sorry to seem ignorant on this, but does “live action sitcom” simply mean it’s not animated, and does it also mean that it will be recorded in front of an audience?
Yes, “live-action” means not animated, which is worth noting being Seth and all. “Multi-cam” means it quite possibly will be taped in front of a studio audience. Or not.
Thanks Matt!
This should be pretty good. Can’t wait
he created the winner didnt he? and that didnt do very well….
A Mcfarlane sitcom, I would be excited if it didn’t sound so generic.
Fox must have a minimum of. 3 Seth MacFarlane shows. Because they just cancelled thCleveland dshowah ow so now he already has another show. Plus it doesn’t have to ho through the process. I’ll loved. Family Guy. And Ted so can’t wait.
I don’t think Cleveland Show was cancelled?
FOX hasn’t cancelled or renewed Cleveland yet. I don’t know what they’re waiting for!
Seth Macfarlane, outside of Ted and the occasional American Dad, hasn’t been funny since 2007
You gotta be Sick?! what TV Shows have you been watching? True they arent as funny and more adult comedy, but to say that he’s flat out “Not Funny”?! Let me guess you like Jersey Shore, Teen Moms and other BS reality Shows, OR…. Dare I say That old catastrophe of Darma and Greg! LMAO!
I feel as if Jerry Stiller should be in this… I miss Arthur Spooner
